Connor told Variety in a statement: “It is with humility and a heavy heart that I share I will not be partaking in season five. I feel like three seasons is enough to tell my story and find love on my own time. I\u2019ve chosen to pass the torch to the next person who can make it as big as me.\u201d<\/p>\n
As for what Connor is planning to do next, it seems he’ll be staying put in the entertainment industry. He explained: “Don\u2019t worry about me \u2014 I\u2019m still going to be in the acting business, especially voice work. I\u2019ve always been a huge fan of animation and would love to be involved with a TV show.\u201d<\/p>\n
He added: “I want to sincerely thank Cian, Sean [Bowman, casting producer], and the entire crew for changing my life over the past three years.\u201d<\/p>\n Connor also talked to Swooon<\/a> about his decision to leave Love on the Spectrum, saying that he and Tanner might do their own show now they’ve both left the Netflix series.<\/p>\n He said: “I always thought me and Tanner would be a duo act like, you know, Bing Crosby and Danny K, Laurel and Hardy, Abbott and Costello, that sort of thing. I always figured maybe a comedy duo. Like, we\u2019d have a sitcom together. Someone even suggested we should probably do a spinoff.\u201d<\/p>\n Tanner revealed why he wasn’t in the newest season of the show, and won’t be returning to the series last week.<\/p>\n He explained: \u201cLove on the Spectrum was one of the most amazing things that ever happened in my life. It changed everything for me and I\u2019ve done things that I never thought I\u2019d get to do but I have figured something out about myself and I want to tell you what it is.<\/p>\n \u201cGuys, I\u2019m not ready for a serious relationship and I\u2019m definitely not ready to get married yet. And since that\u2019s my truth, it wouldn\u2019t be fair or honest for me to be on a show about dating.\u201d<\/p>\n He explained that he wants others to have the same opportunity he had on the show, saying: \u201cI know there are so many people out there who do want to date and do wanna get married and so they wanna be on the show. So it\u2019s time for those other people to have the chance to find love.<\/p>\n \u201cI figured out that I want to travel, I have big dreams and I\u2019m not ready to be somebody\u2019s boyfriend so that is the honest reason why I\u2019m not on season four.\u201d<\/p>\n Tanner\u2019s mum also discussed his decision not to return to the show on her podcast,\u00a0Talk To Me Sis<\/a>, where she explained that Tanner felt far too pressured to date, and was feeling very anxious to date the girls he met on the show despite having no romantic feelings for them.<\/p>\n He realised that he currently didn\u2019t \u201cever want to get married\u201d or \u201chave kids\u201d and felt bad dating on the show when he wasn\u2019t interested in it becoming long term.<\/p>\n Tanner\u2019s mum explained that Cian and the rest of the Love on the Spectrum team picked up on the fact he didn\u2019t seem interested in seeing his dates again, and they all decided it was best if he stopped participating in the show.<\/p>\n For all the latest reality TV cast member news, scandals, gossip and updates \u2013 like\u00a0<\/i>Reality Shrine<\/a><\/i>\u00a0on\u00a0<\/i>Facebook<\/a><\/i>.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Has he given up on love?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":249734183,"featured_media":50486,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1358],"tags":[2103,1438],"class_list":["post-50480","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-love-on-the-spectrum","tag-netflix"],"acf":[],"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","canonical_url":"https:\/\/realitytvshrine.com\/realityshrine\/2026\/04\/06\/connor-reveals-the-real-reason-hes-decided-to-quit-love-on-the-spectrum-after-three-seasons\/","smart_links":{"inbound":0,"outbound":0},"traffic_boost_suggestions_count":0,"meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Connor reveals the real reason he’s decided to quit Love on the Spectrum after three seasons","url":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/realityshrine\/2026\/04\/06\/connor-reveals-the-real-reason-hes-decided-to-quit-love-on-the-spectrum-after-three-seasons\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/realityshrine\/2026\/04\/06\/connor-reveals-the-real-reason-hes-decided-to-quit-love-on-the-spectrum-after-three-seasons\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/cdn.realitytvshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Ellie-New-Featured-Images-2026-04-06T092514.020-150x150.png","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/cdn.realitytvshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Ellie-New-Featured-Images-2026-04-06T092514.020.png"},"articleSection":"News","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Ellie Ring"}],"creator":["Ellie Ring"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Reality Shrine","logo":"https:\/\/realitytvshrine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/cropped-mX3_1x3z.png"},"keywords":["love on the spectrum","netflix"],"dateCreated":"2026-04-06T08:27:54Z","datePublished":"2026-04-06T08:27:54Z","dateModified":"2026-04-06T08:27:54Z"},"rendered":"![\"\"](\"https:\/\/cdn.realitytvshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Ellie-New-Featured-Images-2026-04-06T092534.253.png\")
