What happened in Love is Blind: Argentina Episode 9?

In another episode segment, Julieta met with a designer to create her wedding dress. Although enthusiastic about having a customized attire, finalizing the little details overwhelmed the Love is Blind: Argentina star. It made her realize how close she was to her wedding day.

Meanwhile, Florencia introduced Jose Luis to her father via video call. Despite their troubled relationship, Florencia hoped her father would walk her down the aisle and compensate for her late mother's absence.

Later that night, Florencia discovered that Jose Luis had written a letter to Julieta in the pods. Despite Jose Luis' reassurances, the discovery compelled Florencia to doubt his feelings for her.

"If Jose Luis wrote Julieta a letter, and made promises he can't keep, how can I trust he won't make and break promises to me after we get married?" Julieta said.

The Love is Blind: Argentina star worried that their relationship dynamic would suffer when Jose Luis would meet Julieta at the bachelor party.

Meanwhile, Maria Emilia interacted with Marino, one of her connections from the pods. Although it bothered Mauricio, he said it did not make him jealous because he trusted his partner.

Things escalated when Agustina pulled Emily aside for a conversation. Emily expressed that Agustina's comment about her relationship with Santiago hurt her, but Agustina refused to take responsibility.

"The last day, you said you didn't believe my feelings for Santiago were real, and you thought I was just putting on a show. That really hurt because I thought you were my friend," Emily said.
