The penultimate episode of "Love Is Blind" season eight ended with four weddings — but only one marriage.
While the show, which premiered in 2020 is streamer's most popular unscripted show, it hasn't been as less successful at helping people find their perfect match. Only 10 "Love Is Blind" couples are still together from the show's first seven seasons.
Here's what we know about the main couples from season eight.

In the pod stage, Dave connected with multiple women but proposed to Lauren.
However, when they get home and get their phones back, Dave hears from his friends and sister that Lauren has a secret boyfriend. When confronted, Lauren claims she and the unnamed man were hooking up but were never in a real relationship.
Dave struggles to believe Lauren, refuses to let her meet his friends and family, and eventually breaks up with her in episode 11. Later in the episode, they both attend a cast party, and he apologizes to Lauren for letting his "ego" ruin their relationship and hints he might want to rekindle things. Lauren makes clear she has no interest in reuniting.
At the reunion, Dave says he learned a month prior that the unnamed man had been lying about his relationship with Lauren and regrets not defending her more. At the reunion Lauren says Dave is not what she needs in a partner.

Ben and Sara faced several trials on their journey to the altar.
Ben is a Christian, and Sara doesn't like his church's views on the LGBTQ+ community. Sara cares about politics, whereas Ben is apathetic.
When they return home, Sara stumbles upon a TikTok where a woman complains about Netflix casting "shitty" men on the Minnesota season of "Love Is Blind." Ben believes the video is about him because he dated the woman but tells Sarah he doesn't remember what he did to her to make her make a video about him.
After some tough conversations, during which Ben says he supports the LGBTQ+ community and offers to educate himself about politics, Sara decides to look past these differences and continue the process with him.
Still, at the altar, Sara says she can't marry him, citing that they're not on the same wavelength. He prompts her to continue dating, but she demurs, saying they'll discuss it later.
At the reunion, Sara criticizes Ben for ditching her after agreeing to visit her while she worked in Nashville. Sara says Ben deleted her from the Find My Friends app after she left Minnesota for Nashville and then sent apology texts that she thought were scripted.
Ben denies this, and says he thought they had broken up before they left and accuses her of ghosting him after he sent the apology. The pair still follow each other on Instagram, but the romantic relationship is over.

Devin finds two candidates for a future partner on the show: Brittany and Virginia. He ultimately concludes he and Brittany are better as friends and picks Virginia.
Devin and Virginia's main disagreement arises when Virginia asks Devin to sign a prenup. Devin is initially nervous about the contract, but he agrees to sign it after speaking to his family and lawyer.
They reach the altar, where Devin says, "I do." Despite both of their families feeling confident about the match, Virginia says no in an emotional moment. She explains that she hasn't had enough time to get deep with Devin, citing his hesitance to talk about his political views and the fact that their sexual relationship isn't quite there yet.
At the reunion, they confirm they are no longer dating but have different views on why things ended. Virginia blames Devin, saying he stopped answering her calls a week after the wedding and told people she ghosted him. Devin denies this and says their conversations were going nowhere, so it made sense to end things.

Taylor and Daniel build a strong connection in the pods, bonding over their shared family values and love for Christmas. After they engage and meet in person for the first time, Taylor believes Daniel had followed her on Instagram before the filming began and used information from her account to get her to fall in love with him.
Taylor confronts Daniel about this and then is given her phone to confirm her suspicions. She finds no evidence of this, and Daniel is gracious to Taylor despite the accusation. They continue the process, and everything goes remarkably smoothly — Daniel's mom even accompanies Taylor to her wedding dress-shopping appointment.
Unsurprisingly, they both say yes at the altar, becoming the only season eight couple to actually marry and they are still married.
The reunion episode shows a reel of their first year of marriage, and Daniel reveals he got a tattoo of Taylor's eyes on his chest.

Monica and Joey had one of the smoothest love journeys early in the season. They were the first pair to get engaged after bonding over their joint love for "The Sound of Music" and their close connection with their families.
The first problem arises when Monica's sister doesn't approve of them getting married so soon and questions whether Joey is genuine.
During their final pre-wedding date, Monica also brings up Joey's lack of physical affection. She worries that he doesn't feel as strongly about her as some of the other men do about their partners and expresses that she's unsure how he really feels about her.
Monica and Joey still continue the journey to the altar, but Monica ultimately opts not to marry Joey, unable to get past her sense that he isn't all in with her. Joey doesn't seem bothered by Monica's decision, agreeing it was too soon. They hug and part cordially after their failed wedding, though Monica cries and tells the cameras that she's sad it turned out this way.
At the reunion, Joey says he couldn't get out of Monica's friend zone because her sister doubted their relationship. Monica says he was just not interested in her and lied about his interaction with Madison, another contestant on the show.
Monica says they dated after the wedding, but that relationship has since ended.

No other couple is shown to get engaged in season eight, but the series covers a convoluted love square between Madison, Alex, Mason, and Meg.
In the pods stage, Madison builds connections with both Alex and Mason. Mason also bonds with Meg.
Madison and Alex choose each other, but Mason says he is committed to Madison before she can break things off. Madison tells Meg this information and then dumps Mason.
Mason tells Alex what happened, and Alex gets into an argument with Madison over how she treated him. This leads to Alex also breaking up with Madison.
During the cast party in episode 11, Madison tells Lauren that Alex tried to date her after the pods, suggesting it was because he saw her and realized she was attractive. Madison says that she thinks Alex is a liar now.
She says Alex told her off-camera that he did not actually like Mason despite defending him on the show and told her that Meg was messaging him to get to know him.
Alex and Meg did not get to share their sides of the story during the pod meetup.
At the reunion, Alex and Madison don't say whether they dated after this, but they are not on good terms. In the episode, Alex, Meg, and Mason team up to argue against Madison, with either side accusing the other of lying and manipulation.
Alex denies bad-mouthing Mason, even after Madison pulls up screenshots of messages in which Alex uses a skull emoji and melting emoji when talking about Mason's relationship with Meg.
The argument is cut short by the hosts to move on the show.

Mason and Meg initially bond over their love for conspiracy theories before forming a deeper connection. However, Meg doesn't like that she is Mason's second choice in the pods, so she decides to break up with him.
In episode 11, they arrive at the cast party together, revealing that they are dating now after messaging each other after receiving their phones back.
Mason says at the reunion that they dated a couple of times over the last year but decided to be best friends.
"Love Is Blind" season eight is available to stream on Netflix.
