Love is Blind Mexico: Irais, Fernando, and Rocio drama explained

The Mexican version of Love is Blind finally made it to Netflix and with it, the coveted dating reality TV show added one more version to its horde of international versions.

In the first four episodes that the show released, some of the 30 contestants were seen getting to know each other. Fernando, one such contestant, was getting to know Rocio and Irais at the same time. While they were still in the process of finding their perfect partner, misunderstandings between them took a toll on their relationship.

Before getting engaged to Karen, Fernando had sparks flying for both Rocio and Irais. The love triangle caused a misunderstanding that ended things between Fernando and Rocio and eventually got Irais out of the villa as well. Fortunately, Fernando found a connection with Karen but the same wasn't the case for the other two.

The drama between Love is Blind Mexico stars Fernando, Irais, and Rocio: A web of lies?

During episode 1 of Love is Blind Mexico, Fernando was repeating his dates with both Irais and Rocio. The chemistry between him and Irais was palpable as they spoke about their views on family and marriage.

Their closeness made Fernando tell her that maybe they could be the ideal partners they wished to have. Irais agreed, she even asked Fernando if he was ready yet to take the big step and lock their relationship, but he said he would want to take more time.

When Irais stepped out of her pod, she was very excited by her conversation with Fernando. She exclaimed:

"I'm getting married!"

When she reunited with the other ladies of the house, she sat Rocio down and told her she was keen on getting married to Fernando. Rocio wished her luck and said she was happy for her despite not getting lucky with him.

She decided to confront Fernando about the same, the next day on Love is Blind Mexico. When she told Rocio why he hadn't told her he proposed to Irais, he said he never did. In a confessional, he said that Irais was maybe lying because she wanted other women out of their way.

He then decided to confront her on the same. When they met, he asked her why she had lied and told Rocio he had proposed. Irais denied the claims and said Rocio was lying because she had never told her such a thing. Fernando said in a confessional:

"Who should I believe?"

He was seen torn between the two on Love is Blind Mexico. However, his trust over Irais prevailed and he chose to never see Rocio again.

Then came the time of confrontation between Rocio and Irais. When the two ladies reunited in the common room, Irais sat Rocio down and told her she had never said anything about Fernando proposing to her. She explained that she in fact had just told her she was keen on marrying him.

Rocio admitted to having misunderstood what she was trying to convey and apologized for the misunderstanding. Fernando and Irais would continue to date even after episode 1, but the cracks this misunderstanding brought perhaps weighed their relationship down, and the two eventually separated.

Fernando grew closer to Karen as they had more things in common and proposed to her in episode 3 of Love is Blind Mexico. Irais was sent home because she didn't find another connection worthwhile.
