Love Is Blind: Jimmy Was Wrong To Pick Chelsea (Was Jess The Better Choice?)

Advertisement

Jimmy Presnell and Chelsea Blackwell, current cast members of Love Is Blind season 6, got engaged before they laid eyes on each other, but did Jimmy propose to the wrong woman? Chelsea stands out as the most infamous this season because, during the pod portion of the show, she told Jimmy that people often told her that she resembles movie star Megan Fox. Jimmy was visibly thrilled by the prospect and proposed to Chelsea, sight unseen, soon after she made the claim.

Since leaving the pods and seeing each other for the first time, Jimmy talked about feeling misled by Chelsea about her looks. Though he says he still loves her and insists her appearance doesn’t matter, it’s clear it still bothers him. Jimmy continued to think about Love Is Blind season 6 castmember Jess Vestal, the other woman he had been dating in the pods, and wondered what might have been. In hindsight, it’s clear Jimmy picked the wrong woman, and it has nothing to do with looks.

Chelsea’s Messy Drunken Behavior
Jess Is More Emotionally Stable

Netflix recently dropped an episode of Love Is Blind season 6 in which a drunken Chelsea attacked Jimmy because he had gone out for a quick drink with friends. Though he had only been gone for 90 minutes, Chelsea accused him of seeing Jess and being too interested in partying. Jimmy handled her outburst with admirable patience and restraint, but that didn’t stop Chelsea from emotionally airing her insecurity. She accused Jimmy of not loving her, told him he wasn’t the kind of person she wanted to be with and ended the relationship.

“ She definitely lied to me about some, uh, how she looked . At the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter. I am very attracted to her. ”

When Chelsea angrily demands Jimmy to give up his female friends so he can coddle Chelsea’s seemingly infinite insecurities, he refuses and agrees to the break-up Chelsea had initiated. After sobering up and realizing she was out of line, Chelsea apologized for her behavior. Jimmy forgave her, but it’s obvious he isn’t as compatible with Chelsea as he was with Jess, who’s more emotionally stable for him.

Jimmy & Chelsea’s Journey
Rough Waters

Chelsea and Jimmy first met during the pods and immediately hit off. While Jimmy was also dating Jess, Chelsea was someone whom he knew he’d like physically after Chelsea revealed her resemblance to Megan Fox. While in Punta Cana for the Love Is Blind honeymoon, Jimmy told producers, “She definitely lied to me about some, uh, how she looked,” Jimmy told producers. Jimmy still found Chelsea attractive, but it seems he was more put off by her lie. He also doesn’t love how clingy Chelsea can be. As for their happy ending, fans won’t know until next Thursday.

“In reality, you’re my number one still .”

Netflix recently dropped an episode of Love Is Blind season 6 that included a cast reunion. During the episode, Jimmy finally meets Jess face-to-face for the first time and is obviously attracted to her as she was to him. The two had a great conversation, which was a stark contrast to Jimmy’s conversations with Chelsea. At one point, Jimmy even told Jess, “In reality, you’re my number one still.”

Who Are Chelsea & Jimmy?
They Want Similar Things

Chelsea is a 31-year-old flight attendant and event planner who has been harshly humbled by the internet after she claimed she resembled Megan Fox. Chelsea took the comments in stride and, honestly, didn’t disagree with the internet. Jimmy is a 28-year-old software salesman who insists he’s ready to get married. Both Jimmy and Chelsea came to Love Is Blind season 6 looking to build a strong connection with someone. However, despite having a connection, Jimmy and Chelsea shouldn’t get married at the end of Love Is Blind.

What We Know About Jess
Single Mom Looking For Love

Jess is a 29-year-old executive assistant who describes herself as “really funny and goofy.” Above all else, Jess values a sense of humor in a partner and is looking for a man who can make her laugh. Jess is a single mother and is hoping that Love Is Blind season 6 will introduce her to a man who will accept her daughter as his own.

Are Jimmy & Chelsea Still Together?
Or Is Jimmy With Jess?

Though all three Love Is Blind season 6 stars have not said anything about their relationship statuses, Chelsea and Jimmy are likely no longer together anymore, and it has nothing to do with Chelsea not looking like Megan Fox. Judging by her actions on the show, Chelsea needs constant verbal affirmations, and Jimmy isn’t the type of person who can offer that. As their wedding day nears, they are unlikely to make it work, especially since Jimmy is still interested in Jess.
