Wow. That Love Is Blind reunion was mad, and tell me why Michaella had more heat for Matt the beekeeper than she did for Rob?!<\/p>\n
The pair have addressed the claims made by each other in the reunion during an interview with Tudum<\/a>, with Matt sharing how Michaella’s claims she was on mushrooms when she told him she loved him made him feel.<\/p>\n He explained: “That was probably the most hurtful thing she said, because I have no recollection of that. I live a very wholesome life, I\u2019ve never done shrooms. It was almost like she was minimizing or dismissing her feelings for me, which were communicated to me as being very real.\u201d<\/p>\n Michaella also shared what initially drew her to Matt, saying: “He’s a really nice guy, and I think what drew me to him is that he was the exact opposite of Rob. I felt like I needed to self-correct a little bit after being so blindsided by what happened with Rob.\u201d<\/p>\n Matt admitted it wasn’t nice to hear Michaella thinking so little of their time together. “Sometimes two people can share the same experience and walk away with two different memories,\u201d he says. \u201cMy love for her certainly was real during those times we dated.\u201d<\/p>\n However, Matt feels as though he and Michaella didn’t end up working out after Love Is Blind because of the distance, saying: “We are two and a half hours apart in Boston traffic,” he says. \u201cIt was never a question of the love being there, it was just a question of the distance and the sustainability of a long-term relationship. It was really on me that I felt like I couldn\u2019t give her what I needed to as a partner.\u201d<\/p>\n He also doesn’t think things ended badly between them, adding: “When things ended, it was sad. I mean, we both cried. To Michaella\u2019s credit, she was willing to try. She was willing to make the distance work.\u201d<\/p>\n For all the latest reality TV cast member news, scandals, gossip and updates \u2013 like <\/i>Reality Shrine<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/a> on <\/i>Facebook<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/a>.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This was savage from her <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":249734183,"featured_media":66195,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1358],"tags":[1528,1438],"class_list":["post-66192","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-love-is-blind","tag-netflix"],"acf":[],"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","canonical_url":"https:\/\/realitytvshrine.com\/realityshrine\/2026\/11\/09\/most-hurtful-thing-matt-responds-to-michaellas-love-is-blind-reunion-mushrooms-claim\/","smart_links":{"inbound":0,"outbound":0},"traffic_boost_suggestions_count":0,"meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"\u2018Most hurtful thing\u2019: Matt responds to Michaella\u2019s Love Is Blind reunion mushrooms claim","url":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/realityshrine\/2026\/11\/09\/most-hurtful-thing-matt-responds-to-michaellas-love-is-blind-reunion-mushrooms-claim\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/thetab.com\/realityshrine\/2026\/11\/09\/most-hurtful-thing-matt-responds-to-michaellas-love-is-blind-reunion-mushrooms-claim\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/cdn.realitytvshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Ellie-New-Featured-Images-40-150x150.png","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/cdn.realitytvshrine.com\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Ellie-New-Featured-Images-40.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 is blind","netflix"],"dateCreated":"2026-11-09T19:30:36Z","datePublished":"2026-11-09T19:30:36Z","dateModified":"2026-11-09T19:30:36Z"},"rendered":"
