Spoilers for Love Is Blind season 8 episodes 1 through 12 ahead. Each season of Love Is Blind has one couple who have a bumpy ride throughout the entire experience, from the pods, to the honeymoon, to the real world. In the Minneapolis-set installment of Netflix's hit reality show, 33-year-old medical device salesman David Bettenburg and 31-year-old educational sales worker Lauren O'Brien have been one of the season 8 cast's most controversial pairings since the beginning, when they were dealing with a pod love triangle. Once they got their phones back, Lauren and Dave had to deal with a first-time concern for the series: gossip among family and friends potentially sabotaging the relationship from offscreen.
If you’re behind on season 8 or want to compare notes on the latest episodes before your next watch party, here’s a quick refresher on everything to know about Dave and Lauren's relationship—and whether they may still be together after the show.
