Love is Blind Season 7 Episodes 1 to 6 aired on October 2, 2024, with more episodes to come. The first batch of social media experiments introduced bachelors and bachelorettes looking for their "love."

The show began with 14 male and 15 female participants, one of whom is Leo Braudy. The 31-year-old art dealer based in DC currently leads his art family business in New York. Hoping to find his "true love" in Love is Blind, Leo found his potential connections in Brittany and Hannah.

While going on various blind dates in the show's pods, Leo could be seen discussing his wealth and family business. During one of the confessionals, Leo told the cameras,

"I'm fortunate. I have an interesting and lucrative job. I'm an art dealer. It’s a family business. I actually own it now."

Throughout the first six episodes of Love is Blind, Leo shares details about his family business, how he inherited it, and more. Fans shared their views via social media platform X, referring to Leo's multiple mentions of how rich he is and how "well off" the participant is.

One of the Love is Blind fans shared on X,

"Leo keeps bringing up how well off he is & in the same sentence then says he doesn't want people to like/use him for his money???? Well stop fucking saying it then. #LoveIsBlind."

Another fan commented,

"Leo: "I grew up financially well off" "I went to private school" "I'M A RICH FUCKING ART DEALER" #LoveIsBlind7 #LoveIsBlind."

An X user shared,

"Okay, so Leo's entire family just died of cancer within the space of like 5 years and he ended up inheriting the family business? And he is the only child? #LoveIsBlind #LoveIsBlind7."

Another Love is Blind fan wrote,

"Leo says he's insecure about women wanting him for his money, but then goes out of his way to share how much money he inherited and how well his business does?? And then he doesn't want to pay for everything considering all this wealth?? #LoveIsBlind #LoveIsBlind7."

An X user shared,

"Leo: My biggest fear is being used for my money… my lots and lots and lots of money because I'm incredibly wealthy. I was born rich. I'm super privileged in every way imaginable- look at my Rolex! I would hate to be used for all the shit ton of money I have #LoveisBlind."

One more fan commented,

"So you're telling me Leo's whole family got cancer… and died… and left him all this money. #LoveIsBlind #LoveIsBlind7."

A fan commented on Leo and Brittany's connection with each other,

"The fact that we saw so much of Leo in the damn pods and they didn't even make it to Mexico just really pmo... Yall could have at least let us witness the shit show #LoveIsBlind #LoveIsBlinds7 #LoveIsBlind7."

Love is Blind Season 7: Leo talks about being financially "very well-off"

During one of Leo's conversations with fellow male cast members on Love is Blind Season 7, he could be seen sharing more about his business, education, and more.

"I grew up financially very well-off. I'm not trying to build an influencer career. I'm a rich fucking art dealer. I grew up, like, I went to a country club, went to private school. My college was paid for."

Love is Blind cast member also shared how having his "inheritance" was one of his biggest "insecurities."

"I ended up inheriting it, but one of my biggest insecurities is that a girl only wants me, like for money."

The art dealer also mentioned that one of the reasons he joined Netflix's dating experiment was to find someone who could focus on their "emotional" connection rather than his family background and inheritance.


Fans can stream Love is Blind Season 7 and explore Leo's journey and the connections he built.
