Jessica from 'Love is Blind' Season 6 dishes on her explosive last date with Jimmy

​​​​​​​View Date:2024-12-23 11:51:22

Spoiler alert: The following contains details from the first four episodes of Netflix's "Love is Blind" Season 6 (now streaming).

Amid a handful of love stories taking shape so far on Season 6 of “Love is Blind,” one fractured relationship might be headed toward the Netflix reality dating show’s Hall of Fame for breakups.

Despite vowing to leave after hearing secondhand that 28-year-old software salesman Jimmy chose 31-year-old flight attendant Chelsea over her, Jessica — a 29-year-old executive assistant and single mom — shows up for one final date with him in Episode 4.

Wearing a skin-tight black cutout dress and strappy black heels, she's dressed to kill, too.

In a recent interview, Jess reveals that she didn’t just come back to deliver this scathing dig: “When you see and realize what you missed out on, you are going to choke. You are going to need your EpiPen to open up your airways because you are going to be in disbelief of what you missed out on.”

She showed up, she says, to give herself closure.

“The day before, when I found out that he was going to be proposing to someone else, I actually planned on leaving. And I went back that night, and I was so sad,” Jess tells USA TODAY. “I woke up the next morning and I was like, ‘Actually, no, I remember who I am.’ And I felt like I owed it to myself to have that conversation with him that one last time.”

After Jess opened up to Jimmy about her tumultuous family life — which included foster care and giving birth to her daughter, Autumn, at 17 after being adopted by her “god-given” family at 16 — and letting him read a letter she wrote to her future husband, she's ready to go down the aisle with him.

He seems to reciprocate the interest until the two hit a speed bump in Episode 4 when Jimmy is unwilling to commit amid a love triangle with Chelsea. Instead, Jimmy confesses his love to Chelsea, compelling her to fall off the couch and lie prostrate on the floor. “I am 1000% percent sure I love you,” he says.

Although Chelsea schools her expression when she returns to the women’s lounge after the big moment, she can’t help but tell Laura what just happened. The reveal spurs Laura to sound the alarm with Jess. The 34-year-old account director, who is pursuing a relationship with Jeramey, pleads with Jess to leave on her own terms, asserting, “He’s not your man.”

As Mackenzie and Brittany console her, Jess says through her tears, “I cannot believe he would do this to me. … I really, really loved him.” She adds, “I need to get out, and I need to leave.”

Chelsea "wasn't even coming in and saying it in a loud and proud, braggadocious way. She was just sharing her good news,” Jess tells USA TODAY. Laura was "just having my back and letting me know that basically I wasn't going to be the one who he was proposing to. All of the girls were so supportive. They wanted me to go out on my terms rather than getting broken up with.”

Jess makes sure to go out with a bang in their final breakup conversation.

“Literally spare me the pity party. Please — at the very least what you owe me is one single ounce of directness,” she tells Jimmy in Episode 4.

“You’re going to be an amazing wife for someone else,” Jimmy tells her after doling out some niceties. “At this point, I love someone else.” Though he insists it wasn’t until after their final date “ended so terribly” that he realized Jess was not the one for him, she accuses him of leading her on.

“You ruined this opportunity for me,” she says in their final pod date. “You let me pour my heart out to you more than once. … And now we’re out of time and I’m leaving here alone. That was not supposed to happen. I deserved so much more than what you’ve given me.”
