Love is Blind couple mysteriously DROPPED from season 7 by producers
Love Is Blind season 7 stars Brittany Wisniewski and Leo Braudy were brutally removed from the Netflix experiment shortly after meeting for the first time outside the pods, with their trip before the honeymoons.
Art dealer Leo, 31, proposed to 32-year-old beautician Brittany in the show’s fifth episode – and she happily accepted.
But shortly after the couple first met, a sign appeared on the screen warning viewers that producers had decided not to let them continue their romance in front of the cameras.
“Brittany and Leo were not one of the six couples chosen by producers to continue their journey in Mexico,” a title card read.
“They went to Miami on their own and broke off their engagement weeks later.”

The couple’s first and only in-person meeting on Love is Blind season seven was somewhat awkward, with Brittany unable to say she “loved” her husband-to-be as he repeatedly commented on her good looks.
In his confessional, Leo said, “I’m engaged to like the hottest girl on earth. It’s crazy.’
Personally, he asked, “How does it feel to be engaged?”
Brittany remained silent as she seemingly flinched, prompting Leo to ask again, “So, how are you feeling?”
Finally she replied, “I don’t know how I feel.”
Leo then declared his love for his new fiancée, who was unable to reciprocate his declaration.
“I don’t feel ready to say that yet,” she said, as Leo fearlessly promised, “Okay, but I’ll still keep telling you.”
“Okay,” she said. “I appreciate that.”
A title card revealed that the couple was not selected for the honeymoon, but instead went on their own journey before breaking off their engagement
“You’re damn beautiful,” Leo continued as Brittany thanked him.
He added, “I love you, I really do.”
‘Why do you love me?’ she then asked.
He said, ‘I love you because I feel what you bring out in me…
“Not only have you taught me to follow my heart, but I want to be your structure so that you can enjoy your most intuitive self. That’s what I like most about you, like your intuition.’
“But that can’t be all,” Brittany asked.
“Do you want me to go into the physical characteristics?” he asked.
“No, not physical features,” she insisted.
Leo continued, “Okay, what else? I loved your voice from the moment I heard you.
“I love how caring you are, how strong you are. I don’t think people see that.
‘People don’t see that you’re smart either. But I know you’re smart. I think that’s why men of the past are intimidated.”
He then answered the question and asked, “What do you like about me?”
Leo couldn’t help but comment on Brittany’s physical features several times during their first meeting
Brittany later revealed she wasn’t “surprised” she got the boot
Brittany took a long pause before saying, “This is so much pressure.”
Finally, she said, “I love that even though you made me feel like an option for a moment, you just did what you had to do.”
Brittany further revealed that she felt “bad” because she couldn’t tell Leo she loved him.
She said, “I feel like when I say it, I really want to mean it.”
He replied, “I don’t want you to say it before you really mean it. And if you never mean it and never say it, I can live with that.
“But I would never want you to say it if you didn’t mean it. As if those words are too sacred. That’s what I mean. I’ll keep telling you I love you.’
‘Really and truly?’ she asked.
Leo replied, ‘Is that really true? Are you kidding? I loved you before I knew you looked like that. I love you, honey.”
“I feel like you’re lying if you say it,” she joked, before suddenly retracting her statement.
Brittany said in her confessional, “Something in my brain isn’t computing, damn, this stranger just asked me to marry him.
‘Something isn’t working in my head that makes me feel like I’m really involved.’
Before the scene ended, Brittany and Leo discussed their upcoming honeymoon.
Leo said, “If we go to Mexico, we’ll have a great time.”
“If we don’t, can we go to Miami?” Brittany asked.

“We’re definitely going to Miami,” Leo said. “If we don’t go to Mexico, we’ll have a good time in Miami.”
In another confessional scene, Brittany cringed as she said, “Oh God, what have I done?”
Speak with Entertainment weeklyBrittany said she wasn’t “surprised” that she was removed from the show because she believes they were the “weakest link.”
“I didn’t say I loved him, even though everyone else did,” she said. “And that just wasn’t something I could just say because it just didn’t feel right at the time. I wasn’t in love with him.
‘It didn’t surprise me that we weren’t making any progress on the trip to Mexico, and we were doing our own thing. And of course you build such a strong friendship with all the girls, so it was disappointing.”
