Love Is Blind: Season 7

A group of singles enter the pods, ready to abandon superficial judgments and face possible heartbreak to find true love and lasting commitments.

Review: Best believe this season has brought all the drama! There are the few clout chasers, who want their five minutes of fame and get it, and then there the ones who are truly invested in the experiment. My faves! But at this rate its questionable if this experiment works as the history of happy couples is a bit slim. But that won't stop me from watching. Next season please! Rating: 8/10 - Gugu Phandle, Sowetan Digital Editor
