The 'Love is Blind' Season 2 Cast: Your Guide
Meet the Chicago residents looking for love in the pods.

It's time to re-enter the pods. Two years after the 2020 premiere of season one, Netflix's dating experiment Love Is Blind—in which singles from a specific city speed-date in "pods," with the goal of falling in love and getting engaged, sight unseen—is back for a second season. The first five episodes of season 2 dropped on February 11, 2022, with four more dropping a week later (February 20), and the finale a week later on February 27. The hit first season featured singles from Atlanta, but this time the show has recruited its cast from Chicago, where the engaged couples will live when (if?) they say yes at the altar, a month after meeting.
Watch the season 2 cast announcement, below, and read on to learn about every romantic hoping to find love in the pods this season.
