While Bliss was not Zack’s first choice in “Love Is Blind,” she appears to be his “person.”
Season 4 of the popular Netflix reality show has been a wild ride. If you’re watching the show but haven’t gotten too far into this season yet, beware of the spoilers below.
Zack Found Out He Chose The Wrong Person In The Pods
After connecting and falling in love with both Bliss Poureetezadi, 33, and Irina Solomonova, 26, in the pods, Zack Goytowski, 31, had to make the tough choice of who he will propose to. He ultimately chose Irina but quickly found out that wasn’t his best choice.
For fans who were rooting for a Bliss-Zack connection and were disappointed when he chose Irina, things turned exciting when the newest episode batch dropped on Netflix last week.
In episode 6, viewers saw the two reunite after Zack returned from the trip to Mexico, where he and Irina decided to go their separate ways. During Bliss and Zack’s first meeting to reconnect, he admitted that he made the “wrong choice” and asked for a second chance for a possible relationship. As episode 8, the two were happily in love and ready to walk down the aisle.
Bliss recently told PEOPLE that she always knew the two were meant to be together, and because of that feeling, she could open her heart up again to Zack.
“Going into this, I was open to having a conversation because of the feelings I had for him and because of the person he showed me that he was. He never gave me any reason not to have faith in him and believe in him,” she said.
“He was always candid with me – sometimes to a fault, in the pods. And so, everything that we discussed just made me believe in him. I never felt like I was being manipulated or tricked. I felt in my heart that I knew this was my person.”
Bliss said she knew Zack was making a mistake by choosing Irina, but she also knew he needed to figure that out on his own.
“And I think ultimately it just comes down to my intuition,” she explained. “This felt so right to me, and I wasn’t going to let my pride get in the way.”
Zack Couldn’t Just Reach Out To Bliss After He Realized He Chose Wrong
Because of the show’s format, Zack could not just reach out to Bliss when he wanted to reconnect. He had to go through the show.
“We didn’t have a direct line of contact with each other. He reached out through producers to contact me,” Bliss told PEOPLE. “So, he and I had no direct contact before we met.”
While she was pretty surprised to get the invitation to meet up with Zack, she couldn’t deny the request, thanks to her connection with him.
“I didn’t have any expectations necessarily. But during that conversation, it was like that ‘Oh, I know I was right’ situation. I knew that I was right. I know s I was holding [in] because there was very intense physical chemistry thay just shocked me when I walked in,” she explained. “So, I was trying to hold that back a bit. My smile, I’m trying to hold that smile down.”
Now that the couple is engaged, we’ll have to wait to see if they say “I do” or if they end up going their separate ways once again.
The first eight episodes of season 4 are currently streaming on Netflix. New episodes will be added on Fridays through April 14, when we discover who said “I do” and who walked away.
