The best reality shows need a chaos agent or two to keep things interesting, and Netflix struck gold in Hannah and Nick in Love Is Blind season 7. The two may have found love in the pods, but it took a lot of drama to get there. An engagement and vacation to Mexico didn’t smooth the waters, either.
Still, even the most successful Love Is Blind couples had their challenges. Can this football player and former cheerleader make it work? Are they still together? Here’s everything that happened between Hannah and Nick on Love Is Blind season 7 and what we know about their current relationship status.
Who are Hannah and Nick from Love Is Blind season 7?
Hannah Jiles is a 27-year-old who works in medical device sales. She quit her job to be on the show, which she says is a sign of her commitment, but luckily seems to have since found a new gig as Territory Director at a company called HealthTrackRx. Her social media presence is the standard fare you’ll find on a 20-something’s Instagram: cute outfit pics, trips with friends, and vague captions like, “Patiently waiting on my pen pal from 7th grade to get back to me.”
Nick Dorka, 29, is a former college football player—a kicker/punter, specifically—who now works in real estate. On social media, it’s mostly just posts about his business in his feed, though he doesn’t seem opposed to the occasional shirtless pic. When we meet him on the show, we learn that he likes to flirt but has never been in love.
What went down on the show?
What didn’t? Nick and Hannah initially connected over the fact that they’re both the youngest in the group. When he shares that he played college football, she shares that she grew up in a small town and was the cheerleader who dated the quarterback. While Hannah was instantly smitten, the other women in the pods expressed their skepticism—Nick gave off player vibes in their opinion, and Hannah became insecure that he might be manipulating her.
“He’s someone I think I would not want to go to sleep [next to] without makeup on,” she tells the women. Meanwhile, Nick tells the other guys that she was his number one.
Hannah tells Nick her concerns—”I’m scared that the reason you like me so much is that you think I’m hot”—and tells him that she thinks her connection (with art dealer Leo) is stronger. But then, later that day, she learns Brittany is also dating Leo.
Hannah worries that she made a mistake letting Nick go so soon and requests to speak with him. When they talk, he says he was hurt. She admits she let other people sway her opinion of him. She thought his confidence was going to make her less confident, so she hurt him before he could hurt her.
