" Literally all we had was each other . "

Season 6 ofLove Is Blindmight be over, but we still can’t get enough of the cast, especially Amber Desiree “AD” Smith!

She had everything we’d want in a reality dating show contestant: a bubbly personality with a hopeless romantic mindset. But when it comes to putting your life on public display, no matter how you portray yourself, you’ll still be a target for online criticism.

Here are a few things we hear :

1.Casting forLove Is Blindtakes much longer than you’d think.

2.This wasn’t the firstreality showAD was pitched.

3.Laura had the girls believing Clay resembledTahj Mowrybefore the couples got to actually meet each other outside of the pods.

4.The couples were secluded often, despite the amount of times you see them mingling with the other couples and cast members on-screen.

5.Production didn’t capture the majority of their deep conversations.

6.AD said she told Clay off-camera to let her know if he ever changes his mind about wanting to pursue marriage with her.

7.AD and Clay didn’t see their wedding episode until they came to film the reunion.

8.AD didn’t buy Clay’s excuse about her finances being the issue.

9.The real reason Clay said no at the altar is still unclear.

10.The online reactions to AD and the choices she made on the show were hurtful, especially when the negative feedback came from other Black women.

11.AD didn’t feel sexualized by Clay or the cast.

12.The public was more outraged with Clay than AD was when he said, “Okay, body” as she walked down the aisle in her wedding dress.

13.AD believes Clay did love her and she loved him.

14.The pod dates lasted as long as actual dates in the real world.

15.Yes, AD did spend Thanksgiving with Clay’s family, but that’s not the whole story.

16.AD wants the world to know Matthew Duliba is not the walking red flag everyone thinks he is.

17.AD didn’t get to choose her wedding makeup artist.

18.No one is given alcohol on the show, but it is made available. It’s more of a “drink at your own discretion” vibe.

19.Lastly, AD is NOT open to going on a date with Jimmy Presnell.
