Monica and Stephen: Are the Love is Blind Stars Still Together?

Although an optimist with the brains to match her beauty, Monica Jade Davis truly struggled in nearly all her relationships, nearly driving her to give up on the concept of true love. However, she chose to give it one more chance by applying for Netflix’s ‘Love is Blind,’ unaware she would actually end up as a lead in season 7 thanks to her romance with Stephen Richardson. This couple initially did come across as polar opposites, partly owing to her being a corporate employee and him an electrician, but it was soon clear that they complement one another perfectly.

Monica and Stephen’s Romance Was Like a Fairytale Until it Wasn’t

From the moment 36-year-old Monica first encountered 33-year-old Stephen in the pods, she knew he was completely different than anybody she had ever met and dated for reasons more than one. Apart from the fact his background is not as decorated as she usually prefers — he did a two-year college before making his passion his trade — he also wears his heart on his sleeves like her. As if that’s not enough, she was also incredibly impressed by his ability to be vulnerable and open up about the mistakes he made in the past, just as he was impressed by her sheer empathy.

It truly took a lot of courage for both Monica and Stephen to connect the way they did, only for them to inadvertently build the foundation of their relationship in comfort, honesty, as well as trust. The fact he is barely Black yet wears that label as a badge of honor is also something she fell in love with because all it did was showcase that he is indeed a curious and open-minded man in nature. Thus came his proposal to her in the way she deserves, followed by their face-to-face meeting and getaway to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, where their affinity just grew multifold in the initial few days.

However, things changed as time passed. Monica started feeling annoyed at almost every little thing Stephen did, yet it did seem to be just a phase at first owing to their overwhelming experiences. After all, they had a beautiful date, deep conversations, as well as fun banter upon returning to the real world, only for everything to crash and burn around two weeks before their wedding day. She had been holding out on intimacy owing to longevity concerns, just to find out he had actually been graphically texting a girl he claimed to have met the night before while drunk during a sleep test. He apologized and asserted she didn’t deserve this, but he didn’t fight for her or their relationship, resulting in their split.

Monica and Stephen Have Parted Ways

While many hoped the only issue for Monica and Stephen would revolve around his chattiness before they could candidly discuss their opinions and solve matters, that was not the case at all. Instead, he broke her trust as well as shattered her heart, leading to their relationship reaching such new lows that we do not believe they have a chance of successfully rekindling their romance. Nevertheless, although neither of these Washington natives has confirmed anything as of writing, the fact they mutually follow one another on Instagram does indicate they have possibly since reconnected as friends and be amicable. However, her Birthday post from June this year has an image where a man’s fingers are visible, so it is possible she has either long moved on in the real world or is maybe trying to test the waters with Stephen again. Whatever the case may be, we wish them both the best of luck for their respective futures.

Monica Jade Davis Appears to Be Leading Her Best Life

At the age of 37, Virginia Polytechnic graduate Monica is not only a Senior Enterprise Account Executive at Interfolio these days, but she’s also an unwavering fitness as well as a travel enthusiast. In fact, she has been everywhere from Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Nevada, Virginia, and Vermont to the UK, Spain, Mexico, and the Bahamas in the past few years. Nevertheless, she still manages to make time to perform well at her full-time job while also spending some quality downtime with her loved ones — family as well as friends from way before Stephen.

Stephen Richardson is a Relatively New Dog Dad

While many believe Stephen to just be an Electrician, the truth is he is a competitive bodybuilder and a proud dog dad to a Daschiund puppy named Clementine too — he got the latter in February 2024. As if that’s not enough, this 34-year-old is also a self-admitted gaming and sci-fi nerd, for which he even has a separate Instagram account showcasing his figurines. He actually has a collection of War Hammer figurines, most of which he has painted by hand to give them a unique look, and it’s also a therapeutic activity for him. In other words, he appears to be perfectly content, which is all that matters in the long run.
