Danielle speaks about planning a life with Nick, which includes trips one and two years down the line. Considering they are now divorcing, many wonder if they can get refunds on their vacations.

Iyanna struggles with whether or not her marriage with Jarrette will work due to their differences in personalities. He's an extrovert who likes to stay out until 7 a.m. most nights drinking with friends. She doesn't mind going him out but believes that's an inappropriate time for a married man to be home. Jarrette admits he can do better, but Iyanna is frustrated and has already left their marital home. In one scene, she dishes out the ultimate line to Natalie about how she truly feels about Jarrette.

Why do I get the feeling Shaina was scared Natalie was gonna pull out receipts & that’s why she was in a rush to leave LMAO #LoveIsBlind #LoveIsBlindAftertheAltar

In one scene highlighting Natalie's 30th birthday celebration, Shaina and her new fiance leave the party early after Danielle tells them both that Natalie told the group she found flirty texts between Shaina and Shayne. Shaina denies such, saying she was dating her now-fiance at the time. Viewers believe Shaina left the party to avoid Natalie confronting her and spilling the tea to her new man.

Sal is trash. Toxic trash. He only brought his trash gf to this get together because he wanted to make Mallory jealous! But he’s only ending up making Mallory look like a class act! 🤷🏻♀️ #LoveIsBlindAftertheAltar #LoveIsBlind

Sal was viewed as a victim after the finale, but this time around, fans have turned against him. He was initially a fan favorite after it appeared Mallory dragged him along all season long. Though she said yes, he said no and reneged on his promise to continue dating after the cameras went away. He brought his girlfriend to the retreat in the After the Altar special. Both confronted Mallory in a way that made viewers uncomfortable. And he asked for his sisters' blessing to propose to his new love.

Fans lit Shaina up on social media for her constant interest of Shayne, despite him proposing to another woman and him moving forward with Natalie. She even confronted him during a cast meet-up at a bonfire and called their relationship "fake" and said Shayne and Natalie didn't have any real compatibility. But Shaina says she is misunderstood. Fans, however, weren't buying it.

Deepti and Kyle being the real love story of this season was such a pleasant plot twist. But love that Netflix was also like "lol btw divorces for eveyone" in the last like 6 seconds of the show. #LoveIsBlind #LoveIsBlindAftertheAltar

Fans remember Deepti saying no at the altar to Shake following weeks of criticism about her not being his ideal aesthetic. During the reunion, he was blasted by cast members for his shallow views. But Deepti has since fallen into the arms of Kyle, who regrets not proposing to her in the pods. Viewers say they are the only success from Season 2.
