Multiple Love is Blind Season 7 cast members including Ramses Prashad and Stephen Parker backed Hannah's claims, while Garrett Josemans defended Nick. The confrontation led to revelations about group discussions during their bus ride to Mexico and private conversations between couples that occurred off-camera.
Love Is Blind cast exposes Nick's 'Grenade' comment during Season 7 Reunion
During the Love Is Blind Season 7 Reunion hosted by Nick and Vanessa Lachey, Hannah directly challenged Nick about comments that had circulated among cast members. She pointed to specific remarks about her looks, including the "grenade" comment and a numerical rating system.
Another Love Is Blind Season 7 Reunion contestant Marissa George stepped forward as the primary source, explaining she first heard these comments while filming in Mexico but chose to withhold them temporarily. In an interview with US Weekly Magazine, she revealed,
“[Marissa] was the one who told me about the grenade comment and the rating thing…She had known in Mexico, but kept it from me for a while because she didn’t wanna hurt my feelings, which I totally understand… At first, [I thought], ‘Why did you tell me sooner?’ She was like, ‘I don’t wanna hurt your feelings,’ which is valid.”
Hannah wasn’t surprised as she stated:
“I feel like the grenade thing would be only something that Nick would say…He would make comments off camera where I kind of knew [that] we weren’t s*xually compatible — like, it just wasn’t working. And so when I heard that, I wasn’t surprised but I think it just pissed me off because I was so honest about his looks.”
The confrontation grew more intense as other Love Is Blind Season 7 Reunion cast members joined the discussion. When initially questioned, Nick attempted to deny making the specific comments. However, as more details emerged and cast members pressed him, he shifted his stance and admitted to expressing feeling "underwhelmed" after meeting Hannah in person.
The admission came after several minutes of back-and-forth exchanges, with multiple cast members recounting versions of his original statements.
