Love triangles have become a Love is Blind staple. From Jessica Batten, Amber Pike, and Matthew Barnett in the first season to the dramatic switch that happened between Sarah Ann Bick, Laura Dadisman, and Jeramey Lutinski, no installment is complete without one. This time around, the most entertaining yet complicated triangle in the pods was between Nick Dorka, Hannah Jiles, and Leo Braudy.
So, did Hannah go for her high school football boy dream or the art dealer who she bonded with over Van Gogh with? As Season 7 continues, TV Insider has rounded up everything you need to know about Hannah.
What does Hannah do for a living?
The 26-year-old talked a lot about her previous time as a cheerleader in high school, but we didn’t see much about what got her into her current job in medical device sales. She did give that position up to go on Love Is Blind, making her unemployed while filming occurred.
Being self-sufficient is important to her, yet she also wouldn’t mind someone taking care of her. “That’s not something that I care about [money], but it is something that is important,” she told Nick Dorka, a real estate agent. The way he talks about his current financial situation doesn’t look too promising. “Real estate isn’t something you get into and start making six figures. … This year has been a little tough,” he admitted to her.
Her other mate in the pods, Leo, is quite well off. (He made sure to remind us a million times.) The art dealer who inherited his family’s business wears a Rolex, and the other men couldn’t shut up about it. He made it clear that he didn’t want to be with someone who is just out for his money. In Hannah’s defense, it wasn’t about the money with Leo. It was about their connection.
Where is Hannah from?
Hannah is a self-proclaimed country girl to her core. Hannah’s standout Southern drawl caught a lot of men’s ears. She was quick to say in the pods that she wears her West Virginia roots with pride. Growing up in West Virginia, Hannah also stayed there for college.
Who does Hannah end up with?
After a lot of back and forth, Hannah decided to continue her time on Love is Blind with Nick. This decision didn’t come easily. At first, she told him that she was going to just focus on Leo, but she quickly backtracked when she realized that Leo was also involved with Brittany Wisniewski.
So, what made her do a 180 and fall more in love with Nick instead? She tried to break things off with Leo before he wanted to. A big intimidating speech followed, where he said, “What would you say if I asked you to marry me right now?” Hannah didn’t like it and even started crying, something she doesn’t do often.
The next day, things became extra clear to her, and she broke up with Leo for good. Trying to be honest, she went to Brittany and told her what happened the day before. Brittany and Leo still got engaged.
Now, Hannah is embarking on the Love is Blind adventure with Nick, and she’s not sure whether this is forever. Or at least that’s how it’s coming across. When discussing his appearance, Hannah opened up to the camera, “It is making me feel a little insecure ’cause I feel like I’m bigger than him.”
He didn’t truly lie, though, considering he was actually an All-American college football player and works out. Nick might not be exactly how tall he said he was, but which guy is?
