**This article contains spoilers from the *Love Is Blind* season 9 reunion.**

*Love Is Blind* season 9 can't stop making history. Not only is this the first season to feature no marriages in the finale, but it's also the first reunion to debut a baby from one of the current cast members.

Yes, you read that right — there's already a season 9 baby. And somehow, that wasn't the most shocking development from the extra-long reunion.

Read on to find out all the biggest revelations from the *Love Is Blind *season 9 reunion.

A step too far

Whoever designed this outdoor reunion set did not think through making all the women walk down tall stone steps in long dresses and high heels. While the set looked pretty, it made everyone's entrance feel extra awkward, drawn-out, and downright dangerous. Plus, the audience looked freezing in their blankets.

Sparkle Megan admitted she wishes she would have given Jordan "grace" to "get there eventually" when it came to their lifestyles differences, but she was "scared" that she wasn't getting the full picture before marriage. Meanwhile, Jordan clarified he only said he regretted introducing Megan to Luka because of his age, and a five-year-old just needs stability — Jordan claimed it had "nothing to do" with Megan, and that he was referencing more joining the show at large and bringing Luka into it.

Now Jordan is "casually" dating but not looking for anything serious, because he's not ready to introduce anyone else to Luka.

Baby Sparkle

While this was spoiled online a week prior, Sparkle Megan revealed she's a mom now. She welcomed Brooks, a baby boy, a little over two months ago with her partner Paul (who was in the reunion audience) and said that she couldn't be happier with her new family. She revealed she met Paul three months after the show finished filming, and got pregnant three months into dating — which might actually rival the accelerated *Love Is Blind* timeline.

What was more shocking was that Jordan already knew Megan's news because "a disgusting person" reached out to him on social media "trying to stir the pot." He reached out to Megan immediately and she told him everything. He was happy to learn about it before the reunion. The only other pod squad person who knew about Megan's pregnancy was ... Kacie?! The other women were absolutely shocked — especially Ali.

Rekindled flames

Jordan revealed that Mike and Megan dated for a short time after the show finished filming. It was Mike who reached out to Jordan to break the news to him, and Jordan told him, "No hard feelings." However, Megan felt no spark in person with Mike, so that ended quickly. She also went out with Blake a few weeks after ending things with Jordan so that he could "formally apologize" for ghosting her. Jordan vouched for Blake as being "such a good person" — and Blake only showed up at the very end of the reunion to deliver protein ice cream to Jordan, since it happened to be his birthday.

Making it right

Jordan revealed that Mike DMed him to apologize for the insensitive (and incorrect) comments he made in the pods about diabetes and Luka. He also made "a large donation" to a diabetes charity after the episodes came out to make up for his ignorance, and Jordan was glad to clear the air on that.

Of course, the question of who would keep the ring that Patrick proposed to Kacie with came back up. Ali pointed out that it shouldn't matter that Kacie kept it, because Netflix provided the rings (which is what creator Chris Coelen told **) — it's not like Patrick paid for it. Kacie claimed Patrick told her she could keep the ring during their hotel lobby conversation, but Patrick said that was only because he thought they would continue their engagement off the show.

Patrick and Kacie rehashed their back-and-forth texting after getting home, and how Kacie wouldn't have a conversation with him immediately about the status of their relationship. Patrick just wanted Kacie to apologize at the reunion so he would "wipe the slate clean," and although it took her a while, she finally said she was sorry and offered the ring to Patrick. He accepted it, along with the apology. But she also continued to point out how she was Patrick's "distant" second choice to Anna, which he disagreed with.

Kacie also brought up how Patrick jokingly called Kacie his "ex-wife" during their first face-to-face meeting (which was at a party with all the cast members) after their hotel lobby conversation. He thought it was funny. She did not.

As for who actually kept the ring, that changed multiple times throughout the reunion. Chris Paul from the LA Clippers showed up to host a free throw shoot-out between Kacie and Patrick to see who would keep the ring, which Kacie won. And while Patrick joked that he would give her the ring when they're back in Denver, he then passed it back to her onstage, so Kacie went home with it.

Kacie revealed she and Joe "went on dates" for about a month and a half after the show ended, which Madison clearly hated, as evidenced by her facial expressions. Joe said it ultimately "fizzled out."

Madison believed their connection affected her engagement, but Joe laughed and said that wasn't true. She was pissed that she found out about Joe and Kacie at Mike's pool party when Kacie told her that they're "eskimo sisters" (a slang term that means they had both slept with the same person). Madison slammed Kacie for being a "class act." Kacie claimed she was upset about the way Joe treated her, and not the fact that he was dating someone new already. And Kait is now friends with Joe's current girlfriend as well as Madison, and said it's not actually that awkward for her.

But wait, there's more! Joe and Madison actually hooked up once after their breakup — they went out to discuss why their relationship ended so Madison could get closure, but ended up making out when he walked her to her car after. She said Joe teared up afterwards, and he said it was because the emotions were still fresh for him.

Dropping love bombs

When Kait joined the cast onstage, Nick apologized to her for using religion to "control" the situation during their pod breakup. But Kait said he only apologized to her on camera, or in private after he learned she was going to the reunion. So she didn't believe his apology was ever genuine. She also said that she didn't believe Nick wanted a wife; she believed he only "wanted an audience." When Nick apologized again for "love-bombing" her in the pods, Kait said that it's all just performative. That's when Annie jumped in to defend Nick, and she said they're "friendly" today.

There were a lot of apologies flying during the reunion, because Joe apologized to Nick after seeing the pod squad meetup and how he talked badly about him. Nick said "there's no bad blood" between them, and he understood that it's because Joe and Brendan are friends.

Speaking of Brendan, while he wasn't at the reunion, he sure was talked about a lot. Kait is single now, but she revealed that she and Brendan dated "very briefly" after filming because they connected in the pods. But Kait said it was "messy" when everyone got back to Denver, with everyone dating everyone, and revealed that after she told Kacie about her date with Brendan, she saw him being "all over" Kacie the next night. "That is so not even true," Kacie responded. "That is so false, it's not even funny."

The elephant in the room

When it was time to hear from Anton and Ali, there was a major blind spot that was never brought up: Anton's drinking habits. Somehow Ali was never asked about, and it wasn't mentioned at all. They did talk about Anton's history of going to strip clubs, however. Anton slammed his friend's girlfriend, Melissa, for what she said about his partying at strip clubs, because he claimed they had only met a few times before that brunch. He thought she just wanted 15 minutes of fame and didn't know him at all. And Ali said she never spoke to Anton about it afterwards, and admitted that it's strange that she never confronted him about that when it clearly mattered to her a lot.

And while Ali didn't reveal her current relationship status, she said she was very happy for Anton, who revealed he's been in a relationship for a year with a woman named Miranda (who was in the audience).

Say something nice

As for the final couple, Kalybriah brought literal notes to read from at the reunion to make sure she didn't miss anything. She said she couldn't see Edmond's body language in the pods when she fell in love with him. But in the real world, she realized his nonstop crying and overall behavior was all manipulation based on how he acted towards her off camera vs. on camera. Edmond said he didn't want to manipulate anyone, and was just speaking from his heart.

But Kalybriah was really upset that they always got into a fight right before filming, and then he would act like nothing had happened, so she always appeared as a stereotypical "angry Black woman." She revealed that she even brought that fear to Edmond off camera. Edmond claimed he didn't remember a lot of what she was bringing up, and felt hurt that she only remembered the bad times.

In a rare moment of impressive hosting, Vanessa Lachey pointed out that Edmond's traumatic childhood and upbringing might result in him only focusing on the positive memories and blocking out any negative memories as a coping mechanism. It all led to Kalybriah and Edmond hugging it out onstage.

And with that, another season of *Love Is Blind *is officially over!
