Season 11 of Netflix’s ‘Love is Blind’ brings several singles from Boston, Massachusetts, into the pods, helping them find life partners without seeing each other first. Jacqueline Guelli, AKA Jax, and Scott “Stew” Stewart were also two of the singles who connected in the pods on their first date. She made it clear that she wanted a man who could match her energy and bring positivity into her life. As someone deeply invested in her business, she also wanted a partner to support her professional ambitions. On the other hand, although Stew valued his freedom to spend time on his own terms, he felt ready to meet the love of his life, who would always be by his side on his life’s adventures.
Jax Guelli Decided to Leave the Show After Her First Meeting With Scott “Stew” Stewart
During the first few dates, Jacqueline “Jax” Guelli and Scott Stewart, AKA Stew, found themselves enjoying each other’s company. They also discovered their similar taste in fashion and home aesthetics. Over time, they discussed their dream wedding, and he impressed Jax by correctly guessing the engagement ring she had always envisioned. While further opening up about their lives, they discovered that they both loved ‘Phantom of the Opera’ and had performed in the theater during their school days. However, she and Stew soon faced a hurdle when he revealed that he had never told anyone he loved them and had never been in love. The confession left Jax concerned that he might struggle with commitment.
Stew eventually reassured her that after reflecting on their conversations, he had realized that he was ready to take the step toward a committed relationship with her. When he finally took the next step forward by proposing to her in the pod, she accepted. During their first face-to-face meeting, Stew was blown away by Jax’s beauty and expressed his admiration by getting down on one knee to propose. Things took a turn when she stated that the proposal didn’t feel romantic to her. She eventually chose to leave the show, initially deciding not to meet Stew to explain her feelings. Although he was shocked after hearing about the turn of events, he emphasized that he did not regret the experience.
Jax and Stew Appear to Have Parted Ways After Leaving the Show
Although Jax and Stew’s relationship took an unexpected turn after their first in-person meeting, it didn’t end there. Despite her abrupt exit from the show, the two met at a restaurant, suggesting the meeting might have opened the door to a conversation that could help them understand each other’s perspectives. During a later interview, Jax explained that the proposal hadn’t unfolded as she had imagined. She added that she had hoped Stew would put effort into his speech, but it lacked a personal connection. While speaking about the experience, Stew admitted it was “awkward.” He added, “I’m not faulting her. I’m not faulting myself. I think the scenario is so impossible to prepare for, and you have such a short window of time.”
Looking back, Jax clarified that she regretted her decision to walk away without communicating her feelings to Stew one last time. She further said that the intensity of the moment overwhelmed her, causing her to go into “flight mode.” After their time on the show, Jax and Stew have remained connected on Instagram. However, their lack of public interaction and pictures together suggests that they have likely not reconciled. From what we can tell, their choice to continue following each other on social media may indicate that they remain on amicable terms.
