What happened between Sally and Medina in the Love is Blind: Germany finale? Details explored

The debut season of Love is Blind: Germany released its finale on Friday, January 17, 2025, showcasing three couples waiting to walk down the aisle. While everyone hoped to end their journey with a fairytale conclusion, not all could achieve it. Among them was Sally who refused to go through with her marriage to Medina, stating that she needed to feel "more sure."

Although it saddened Medina, he accepted Sally's decision since he knew how important marriage was for them. He wanted the two of them to experience it only once in their lifetimes without feeling uncertain or doubtful. Even though Medina had to leave the altar without a wife, he claimed it was only the end of the experiment not the end of their journey.

Like Sally and Medina, Hanni and Daniel ended their Love is Blind: Germany journey on a sour note. Hanni decided not to say "yes" to marrying Daniel because she felt uncertain about their future as husband and wife. Ilias and Alina were the only couple who tied the knot, acknowledging that love was truly blind.
