'Love Is Blind' Star Jimmy Reveals He's Open to Dating AD

Jimmy isn't giving up on love.

Jimmy Presnell had a rollercoaster relationship with Chelsea Blackwell during Season 6 of Love Is Blind, with him ultimately calling off their engagement before they could walk down the aisle. But just because things didn't work out between Jimmy and Chelsea, it doesn't mean he's uninterested in dating…another co-star.

Amber Desiree "AD" Smith turned heads during the season. The former NBA and NFL cheerleader even made Jimmy gush, with him semi-awkwardly complimenting her on her "stacked" body. Apparently, Jimmy is open to dating AD these days.

"We'll see," he exclusively told E! News. "I think the world of AD, so I don't wanna say no just yet." He says he "won't go there" out of respect for her former fiancé Clay Gravesande. He also says AD is a "vibe," adding, "I could sit and have a whole conversation with that girl all day. She's cool."

But before he could consider dating AD, Jimmy dated Chelsea throughout Season 6. To viewers, Chelsea appeared insecure and picked fights with Jimmy. After Chelsea revealed a secret he asked her not to reveal on camera, Jimmy said trust between them was broken. Days before their scheduled nuptials, he confessed to her that he didn't want to go through with the wedding. Chelsea tried salvaging what was left, but it was too late. Their relationship ended that evening. 

But according to Chelsea, they tried dating again after the cameras cut. "We tried to date for days after, and we really tried," she told Entertainment Weekly. "We tried our hardest and it just didn't work out." Jimmy ended things the second time around also. "He called me and said he realized he didn't want a relationship," she explained. "This experiment was a lot on him and it just didn't work out." 

Despite the heartbreak, Chelsea says they've grown close as friends, specifically since the show began streaming. "We've both been really leaning on each other right now because it's very intense," she said. "He's been so supportive of me and it's been really, really refreshing. It made me kind of realize why I fell in love with him in the first place."
