Love might be blind, but it’s also emotional! In a new sneak peek clip for the upcoming season 5 premiere of Love Is Blind, contestant Taylor Rue opens up about her decision to join the dating experiment.
“In the past, I don’t think I truly loved myself,” Taylor admits, wiping away tears. “Yeah, I struggled with loving myself and I feel like I let myself go.”
The 26-year-old teacher says she’s now ready to find her husband.
“I love myself now, and I’m ready to love somebody else, like, give it my all,” she explains. “So when I got this opportunity, I was like, ‘Why wouldn’t I try it?'”
