Blake Anderson, “Love is Blind” Season 9
When Blake joined the other singles in the Love is Blind Season 9, he knew how to joke, but he had never been more serious about finding a partner.

Blake Anderson Reveals Why He Left “Love is Blind” Season 9
Anderson entered the show with the hopes of finding a dog mom for Mabel. He, however, abruptly walked off season nine of the Netflix show without even saying goodbye in the pods, despite forming connections with contestants Anna Yuan and Megan Walerius. While on different interviews, Blake shared that he had doubts throughout the pod process and didn’t feel a proposal was realistic. He emphasized that the show encouraged participants to leave if they weren’t working toward engagement, and he took that seriously. He quoted, “It was communicated… if you’re not working towards an engagement, you probably shouldn’t be there.”
On the other hand, Blake described himself as “practical to a fault,” adding that he felt the timeline didn’t allow for the depth he needed to commit. As the days passed, he realized he wasn’t forming a connection strong enough to justify a proposal. And with Anna Yuan also leaving the show, this seemed to be a wake-up call for him to leave the show, although emphasizing that his decisions were not influenced by her decisions. But the moment solidified his decision to leave, as he no longer felt emotionally invested. Blake also added that he had one other relationship in the pods in addition to Anna and Sparkle Megan that wasn’t shown in the episodes.
Additionally, he claims that the Love Is Blind producers “were fully supportive” of his decision to leave early, and didn’t try to convince him to stay. After telling a member (a lady) of the production team that he wanted to leave, the lady told him, “You’ve got to follow your heart with this. It’s your journey. You can walk out. Whatever you want, you know what I mean?” In addition to his exit, Blake told EW that he didn’t want to pursue anything romantic with any of his connections after his exit, after speculations sparked from the other contestants that he had left to be with Anna outside of the show.
Does he regret leaving the Show?
While Blake is pretty content with his decision now and believes he made the right call at the time, he does have regrets over the way he left, without even saying goodbye to Megan Walerius, who was left waiting in the pods. He stated, “When I did [leave], I felt really good about my experience for about 24 hours, and then I found out about how everything went down afterwards.” He later admitted his exit was “clumsy” and that he should have handled it more thoughtfully. “In hindsight, yes, I think that was a little bit clumsy on my part, and I should have maybe thought through, and in hindsight, I would’ve gone back and maybe played things out a little differently. But I think ultimately leaving was the right decision for me”, Blake said.
