Netflix’s ‘Love is Blind’ almost always seems to find near-perfect matches for its participants. That is largely because the contestants set aside their prejudices and preconceived notions to focus solely on what truly matters in a relationship. In Season 10, Amber Morrison and Jordan Faeth connected instantly, like two peas in a pod. They became each other’s answer to everything they had imagined in a partner and were quick to declare their love, as they began envisioning what their life together might look like.
Amber and Jordan Worked Towards Their Dream of Building a Family Together
For Amber Catherine Morrison, love had never been a priority, as she had always been focused on more important things. She became a mother at just 26 and raised her daughter, Emma, outside of marriage. At the same time, she completed a master’s degree, which was no small feat. When she came into the experiment, Amber wanted to genuinely give herself a chance to find a person who would accept her family, not just her as an individual. Jordan Faeth, meanwhile, had spent nine years as a single man and entered the experiment ready to shed his inhibitions and find a partner with whom he could build a life. Their first conversation stood out immediately. Amber was upfront about having a daughter, and for Jordan, it was never something that fazed or affected him.
Both were looking for someone “to be weird with,” and it quickly felt like they had found that in each other. Jordan also told her that meeting Amber’s daughter and becoming part of their family felt exciting, not like a burden. Not long after, he proposed. Before seeing each other for the first time, Amber said she felt no anxiety, knowing that Jordan’s reaction to her appearance would not change what they had built. After they came back from their vacation, real and logistical things stood between them. Jordan took her to see his home in Columbus, which they both knew was a little too small for them. He said he would want to stay there for now, but was not too keen about living in Mount Vernon, where Amber’s house is.
They both knew they ultimately wanted to create a home that was only theirs and something they could build together. When she met his family, she loved how kind, cheerful, and accepting they were of her, and they also saw her as a perfect partner for Jordan. When he shared with Vic that he was a little apprehensive about meeting her daughter, Amber overheard, and she was let down by the fact that he would share his feelings with someone else and not her. It did hurt her, and she went silent for a while, which made Jordan feel very anxious. They were able to talk it out, and a day before the wedding, Jordan met Emma, and they hit it off. She was the flower girl at the wedding, and finally, both of them said “I do” amid the cheers of their loved ones.
Amber and Jordan Separated After Four Months of Marriage
While there had been a lot of hope surrounding Amber and Jordan’s love story and many believed it would end on a positive note, things ultimately did not unfold that way. During the reunion, the couple revealed that they had separated after only four months together and were already in the middle of divorce proceedings. They explained that Jordan never moved to Mount Vernon, where Amber was living, and instead continued to stay in Columbus. According to him, he tried to make the relationship work by driving for hours to visit Amber on weekends. However, he claimed that Amber carried a great deal of mistrust from her previous relationships, and he often felt like he was dealing with the consequences of that lingering distrust. Jordan also brought up an incident at a wedding where he felt embarrassed by Amber’s behavior and believed the situation had been handled inappropriately.
Amber, however, had a very different perspective on the relationship. She expressed that Jordan seemed more focused on living his own life during the weekdays and only expected a presentable partner who would show up for him when it suited him. She also pointed out that he did not properly say goodbye to her daughter, Emma, when things ended. Jordan later addressed Emma on camera and apologized for how everything concluded. The emotional exchange ended on a tense note when Amber stated, “Don’t fucking come into somebody’s life if you’re going to do that,” before walking away from the conversation, which had clearly become uncomfortable for her. In the end, it appeared that they had very different expectations for what their relationship should look like. The distance between them may have added to the strain, and although their castmates acknowledged that both seemed to try, the relationship ultimately did not work out.
