Lydia Velez Gonzalez, featured in Season 5 of Netflix\u2019s \u201cLove is Blind,\u201d is a Houston-based geologist originally from Puerto Rico. She holds an undergraduate degree in geology from the University of Puerto Rico-Mayaguez and a Master\u2019s degree in environmental management from the University of Maryland Global Campus.<\/p>\n
During the show, Lydia made history by recognizing her ex-partner\u2019s voice in the pods, a unique occurrence for the reality series. She and fellow cast member Uche Okoroha had dated in the past, an awkward revelation later in the season.<\/p>\n
In the pods, Lydia initially connected with engineer Milton Johnson and insurance representative Izzy Zapata. However, when Izzy formed stronger connections with other women, he ended things with Lydia, leading her to focus on her connection with Milton.<\/p>\n
At the time of the show\u2019s filming, Lydia was 30 years old. This was a topic of discussion on the show, as Milton was 24 at the time, which initially raised concerns for Lydia.<\/p>\n
While there\u2019s no confirmed information on whether Lydia and Milton are still together, some observations from their social media accounts have raised questions. They don\u2019t follow each other on Instagram, and Milton has no pictures of Lydia on his page, even from the show. Similarly, Lydia\u2019s page has only one screenshot of Milton, and he isn\u2019t tagged in her post. It\u2019s important to note that this could be an effort to avoid spoilers. Fans will have to wait for the reunion episode to get an update on their relationship status.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
