A major moment happened on the Love Is Blind: Germany Season 2 reunion. Jan, a contestant who got engaged to Loan Laurent in the pods, shared that he found love with a man after the experiment ended. This personal revelation marks a first for the global Love Is Blind franchise.
The reunion special gave viewers an update on all the couples from the season, which premiered on Netflix on January 8, 2026. While some pairs were sharing wedding plans, Jan’s update took the conversation in a deeply personal and new direction.
The Connection Between Loan and Jan in the Pods
On the show, Jan, a 27-year-old law student, and Loan, a 26-year-old HR manager, formed a strong bond. Their connection was built on deep conversations where they both lowered their emotional guards. This led to a proposal, and they left the pods as an engaged couple ready to meet in person.
However, their relationship faced challenges after they saw each other and started living together. Jan spoke about wanting to be completely sure before becoming intimate, emphasizing that Loan “deserves to be desired”. Despite a genuine care for each other, they could not move forward toward marriage.
Jan’s Reunion Announcement and Personal Discovery
During the reunion episode, Jan shared a significant update about his life after the cameras stopped rolling. He told the hosts and fellow contestants that he discovered a new dimension of his identity.
Jan said: โI found this feeling of completeness after the experiment, with a man, and that may surprise some people. It surprised me, too. Others may not be surprised. I know it may raise doubts about my authenticity.โ
He explained that his search was always about the person, not their gender. After the show, he dated and ultimately found a meaningful relationship with a man. On his Instagram, he later posted a tribute to Loan, writing, โAll the love belongs to @loanlaurent. Finally, I donโt have to hide myself in silence about what a gift this human is.โ
Where Loan and Jan Stand Now
Jan and Loan are not together as a romantic couple. Instead, they have built a lasting and special friendship. The experience they shared in the pods created a unique bond that translated into a supportive platonic relationship.
Jan has moved on with his new partner, while Loan’s current relationship status from the reunion is not detailed in the available updates. Their story shows that the Love Is Blind experiment can lead to different kinds of love, including profound friendship.
The entire second season of Love Is Blind: Germany, including the reunion episode with this announcement, is available to stream globally on Netflix.
