'Love Is Blind' Season 5: Everything We Know

After a Love Is Blind-free summer, Netflix is giving fans a treat for the fall. The streaming service announced on Tuesday that it is premiering season 5 of its hit dating series on Friday, Sept. 22. 

The Love Is Blind premiere comes weeks after the season 4 After the Altar special is to air on Friday, Sept. 1, featuring your favorite season 4 couples and singles as they navigate life after the show. 

After four successful seasons, season 5 is ready to bring an entirely new group of singles together for a blind meeting in the pods. Back in June, fans got to see a first look at the new season with two unnamed contestants enjoying a pod date and reflecting on their past romantic histories. 

The franchise, which was created by Chris Coelen with Netflix and Kinetic Content, has gone on to have several successful international spin-offs as well as the show Perfect Match. The team also created the popular series, The Ultimatum, which is premiering its second season this month. 

Here's everything we know about season 5:

Here's Happened to the Season 4 Contestants

Three couples from Love Is Blind's fourth season ended up getting married, and another unexpected pair are still together. Zack Goytowski and Bliss Poureetezadi tied the knot after Zack originally proposed to Irina Solomonova. Brett Brown and Tiffany Pennywell also said "I do" after an almost instant connection. Chelsea Griffin and Kwame Appiah also got hitched in the show's finale. Meanwhile, contestant Paul Peden said no to his fiancé, Micah Lussier, at the altar, and even though the pair previously shared that they'd tried dating after the show wrapped, they've since gone their separate ways. Paul has started dating Geneva Dunham. And in the newly released trailer for After the Altar, we also see Jackie Bonds and Josh Demas together, but seemingly struggling with the drama surrounding his previously unaired proposal to co-star Monica Rodriguez. Jackie's ex, Marshall Glaze, has also moved on with girlfriend Chay Barnes, and they celebrated their one-year anniversary in July.
