Love is Blind season 7: Past tensions between Hannah and Katie

The reunion’s tension centred around a clip shown from earlier in the season when Katie’s friendship with Hannah took a rocky turn after the former and Nick shared a seemingly innocent but long conversation. This led Hannah to question both Katie’s and Nick’s intentions.

In the clip, Hannah confided her frustrations to Nick, recalling how Katie repeatedly mentioned her attraction to him and expressed hurt over his desire to speak with Katie.

“Katie came up to me three different times tonight... 'he’s hot,' ‘like I’m really into him,’” Hannah said.

This conversation left Hannah questioning whether Katie was a supportive friend and if Nick was fully committed to the former. “Is that my fiancé that disrespects me?” she asked, showing the depth of her concern over the situation.

As Hannah’s frustrations emerged, Nick questioned whether she truly trusted him, asking, “Do you trust me?” Hannah admitted it was more about respect than trust, ultimately telling him,

“I don’t know if I don’t trust you, but I don’t know if I trust Katie.”

This admission jeopardised their relationship and her friendship with Katie, setting the stage for the tension displayed at the reunion.

In the Love is Blind reunion studio, Katie had a chance to respond to the clip, expressing visible remorse over how her actions had unintentionally hurt Hannah. Katie said,

“I was so excited to see everybody, especially Marissa and Hannah. We’re the trio"

Recalling the evening of the interaction, she explained she hadn’t realized how her actions were perceived, stating,

“I thought our conversation was fine. Nick and I dated for three days in the pods... We’re both charismatic people.”

Katie clarified that her conversation with Nick was innocent, expressing her dismay over Hannah’s reaction. She stated that she had gone so far as to send flowers to Hannah as an apology.

She reflected on the toll the misunderstanding had taken, noting,

“To sit on that for a year of anxiety building up and not knowing, like, what we said or how we upset her... that was really hard.”

Katie, in a heartfelt appeal to her friend, asked Hannah if her statements in the clip still carried weight. “I know we’ve been past this," she said, hoping for Hannah’s reassurance.
