Love Is Blind moves fast: strangers date in pods, get engaged, and then figure out in the real world whether the relationship can actually last. That speed has made one behind-the-scenes detail a frequent fan question—who pays for the engagement rings, and what happens to them if the couple later breaks up.
Who pays for the engagement rings
Coelen told news outlets that production supplies the rings for proposals on the show, meaning contestants are not expected to pay for the ring used on-camera. People similarly report that engagement rings are provided through production (and personal heirlooms can also be used).
Who keeps the ring after a breakup
Coelen’s explanation is straightforward: there’s no return requirement. Once a ring is given, the ring belongs to the person who received it, even if the couple later splits.
Are there rules about what contestants can say about the ring
Coelen also noted there’s no show rule forcing cast members to describe the ring a certain way. If someone claims they paid for it, that’s their choice to say, even if production supplied it.
Can couples upgrade the ring on their own
Coverage around the show’s ring process notes that couples can choose to upgrade or customize at their own expense if they want something beyond what production provides.
