Where to Watch Ben Love Is Blind TikTok

In March 2024, TikTok user Andra, known as @hopeyoufindyourdad, uploaded a video about seeing the leaked Love Is Blind cast and calling out Netflix for casting a known manipulator. “Minneapolis is a big city, small town vibe, where everyone knows each other and the dating pool here is very, very small. So if you messed up, someone’s gonna know about it,” she said through tears. “I’m just exhausted and tired of society rewarding shitty men who treat women terribly and manipulate and lie all the time.”

In a follow-up TikTok video, Andra said that the man was not on the show “for the right reasons” and that he’s a “terrible person.” She allegedly dated one of the Love Is Blind stars when she was in college at the University of Minnesota and that the guy was much older than she was. She then said that the man was posted on a local Facebook group to warn other girls about his harmful dating habits. “He was really one of the first boys to open up my eyes and make me realize you actually shouldn’t believe boys when they tell you things,” she said. ” Because sometimes they will say and do absolutely anything to manipulate people.”

When the official cast list was released, Andra made a video shaming Netflix for continuing to cast this person on the show. She alleged that the production of the show made him wipe all his social media accounts and made them new again without his exes noticing. She also describes the man as a baseball player who was MVP of the team, which aligns with the descriptions of Ben. “If you ask me, I would have never guess that he was on that show to get married. The second he got off that show, he went to his old bars and started telling people exactly what happened on the show.”

When word got around that they were filming back in Minneapolis, she claimed all the women who dated him came forward with their “horror stories” and the information went back to the person he was engaged with who was indeed “hesitant” to move forward with the relationship. Andra says the couple allegedly went to the altar, but the girl ended up saying no first.

The Love Is Blind producers said that they made the conscious decision to include Sara’s discovery because it was so genuine. “I don’t know anything about the person who posted the video and I don’t know anything about it other than what we documented,” creator Chris Coelen told Entertainment Weekly. “All I know is what we documented, so we see her discover it, and then we see Sara and Ben talk about it, and we see them deal with it and decide what they’re going to do about it, if anything. I love that about making the show — that something happens, we’re just going to follow it, and try to lean into the authenticity of it.”

Sara said that it helped make her decision at the altar. “Ultimately, me and Ben talked multiple times before the wedding of discussing, is this the safest decision for us? Is this smartest decision for us? We really need to think about that. And so we were on the same page, and he knew coming in what I was going to say,” she explained to People. “And so when he asked that, I wasn’t shocked he wanted to do that or be together after, but I was shocked he asked that at the altar, knowing the circumstance of we are here to say yes or no.”

She continued, “And also just with the whole entire concept of you walk away forever,” she adds. “I was like, that’s disrespectful in a way of what we signed up for and the whole entire point of why we’re here. And so I was shocked he asked that there. And also me saying no to a marriage, why would I continue dating someone? If you’re going to say no to that, why even continue the relationship?”
