Love Is Blind season 7 star Monica Davis is a Halloween meme.
On Monday, October 14, Davis took to her Instagram Stories to share a mock-up for a pre-packaged Spirit Halloween costume created by the Instagram account Married Is Blind Memes. Included with the faux “MONICA LOVE IS BLIND SEASON 7” costume: A shiny, turquoise minidress. Plus, “Roses/Flowers every second of the day,” “Venmo account,” and last but not least, a “Boner deflector.”
Noted on the package: “Kate Spade bags not allowed with this costume.”
While Davis, 37, shared the funny graphic with references to her Love is Blind appearances, she added three crying emojis below the image to specific her apparent disappointment.
Earlier this month, she opened up about her broken engagement to Stephen Richardson, with whom she occasionally keeps in contact.
“It’s something that we proceed to work through [and] you’ll hear more on the reunion,” Davis said throughout the Thursday, October 1, episode of “The Viall Files” podcast. “We’re in communication — rarely. There’s not a variety of depth there by any means, but we communicate.”
Davis and Richardson, 34, got engaged sight unseen in the Love Is Blind pods when the experiment got here to Washington, D.C. in October 2023, which began airing on Netflix one 12 months later. Their physical relationship grew once they finally met, but things took a turn for the more severe.
Davis learned that Richardson was texting with one other woman about “dirty” sexual fantasies. The pair ended up calling it quits ahead of their planned wedding day. In line with Davis, the message popped up on Richardson’s phone when she went to answer to a separate one sent by costars Taylor Krause and Garrett Josemans about their plans to deliver homemade fall-themed cookies.
“Stephen and I were hanging out, having an incredible time and he stepped into the toilet. A text popped up that we were waiting for from Garrett,” Davis recalled to podcaster Nick Viall. “I went to go click the message and next thing I do know I’m in his texts and I see a lady’s name. This was not something that I used to be expecting from this person in any respect.”
She added, “There was a second there where I, literally, remember pondering, ‘Should I click on this? No, don’t be crazy.’ And I clicked it.”
Davis claimed she “scrolled through a bunch” of messages, feeling “so greatly surprised” concerning the explicit content.
“I couldn’t breathe,” she said. “I’m not kink-shaming; I just didn’t know. This wasn’t the individual that I used to be sharing a bed with by any means. … I used to be taking this experiment so seriously, like, I used to be really in love with this person.”
Because the premiere of Love Is Blind in 2020, fans have wondered how effective the concept of speed-dating without seeing the opposite person actually is. The show, which has aired seven seasons and spawned multiple international iterations, follows singles dating in pods over the course of 10 days. The kicker, in fact, is that they […]
When the couple decided to interrupt up, she asked Richardson to Venmo her for half of their living expenses.
While Davis considers her ex is “a very good person,” she told Viall that there are still major conversations to have during the upcoming reunion, which hits Netflix later this month.
“I might really need to know if, truly [and] genuinely, he was being honest,” she said. “Did he come on this show [with hopes] of really leaving with a wife? That’s my biggest query. I believe he would have been joyful to go away with a girlfriend, but I don’t think he was in search of marriage. I believe the reunion goes to be wild.”
Love Is Blind season 7 is currently streaming on Netflix. Recent episodes drop Wednesdays. The reunion airs Wednesday, October 30, at 9 p.m. ET.
