Love is Blind’s Season 5 star Johnie has taken to social media to show off her new boyfriend after Chris confessed to cheating during reunion.

Johnie Maraist had quite the tumultuous experience on Season 5 of Love is Blind.

After falling head over heels for Izzy Zapata while inside the pods, he ended up breaking her heart by choosing Stacy instead. Yet there was seemingly light at the end of the tunnel for Johnie, when she and Chris Fox, whom she also shared a special bond with in the pods, became an official couple.

Fans were rooting for Chris and Johnie as a pair, yet some were worried that Johnie would end up breaking Chris’s heart since it was implied in the pods that he was her “second choice.”

But in a shocking turn of events, Chris ended up cheating on Johnie, leaving her heartbroken.

Yet fortunately, Johnie has found new love with a mystery man whom she has just celebrated her one year anniversary with.
