It isn’t a true season ofLove Is Blindwithout some scorching scandal, now is it?Love Is BlindSeason 7dropped its first six episodes of thereality dating serieson June 26, 2025. Thenew season saw seven couplesform a connection, includingAshley AdionserandTyler Francis. The couple hit it off in the pods and shared numerous wholesome conversations. They were the least problematic couple, andviewers believed they were a shoo-in to make it to the aislewithout much fuss. However, recent buzz on social media has hinted toward a messy hurdle for these love birds asFrancis has been accused of allegedly living a double life.
Fans of the show went berserk as they dug deeper into these allegations, questioning thefranchise’s vetting process. While Francis eventually addressed the parentage, the question arises of whether withholding important information from your fiancée just two weeks shy of the wedding is problematic. It also comes into question howproducers could’ve played a hand in facilitating the transparency within the podsso that the person on the other end had all their facts right before accepting a proposal and getting emotionally invested.
In the pods, Francis and Adionser shared a strong bond, with the former showcasing immense vulnerability and opening up about how he was raised by a single mother. On July 23, 2025, a woman namedLovetta Thomastook to her Instagram topost a photo montage featuring Francis alongside three kidswith some bold hashtags, including “#whothrowstheirkidsawayforashow,” “#theylovetheirdaddy” and “#deadbeatdad.” The montage featuring the kids — who resemble him — circulated around social media as new stories were uncovered.

Thomas took it one step further as she continued to slander theLove Is Blindstar on Facebook as she made revelations about their alleged relationship. A since-deleted TikTok shared details thatFrancis owes his baby mama $30,000 in child supportand hasn’t been around his children in months. Heallegedly wiped his social media clean of his kids before going on the show. The new disclosures also led to other women coming forward to reveal howFrancis was supposedly cheating on Adionser during the filming of the show.All this information remains to be confirmed and needs to be taken with a grain of salt as fans await a reply from Tyler Francis on the same.

Love Is BlindSeason 7 Episode 9 started off with Adionser and Francis having a lighthearted discussion about kids. Cut to the end of the episode, and things had taken a different turn.

She also remarked howshe should’ve gotten the full picture before they took their relationship to the next level.However, with the latest information from Lovetta Thomas, itremains to be revealed if Francis plays a more significant role with the kidsapart from just a sperm donor.
Tyler Francis Came Clean, Eventually, But Perhaps a Little Too Late
Although Tyler Francis came clean about the three kids that he parented as a sperm donor, it’sundeniable that it was problematic of him to withhold such key informationfrom his fiancée for as long as he did. However, Francis exclusively revealed toE! Newsthat he has no regrets about how things panned out. He did remark howa couple of conversations could’ve occurred at a particular time, but he believes in living in the present. This is relatively easy for Francis to say since Adionser took the news pretty well — it’s not necessary that it would be the case with someone else in her shoes.
This incident highlights howproducers must step in and ensure that fundamental information such as this is revealed in pod dateswell in advance so that the contestants have their facts right. Love can be blind but not void of logic. Background checks need to be tightened, and parentage needs to be transparent, as was the case with single motherJessica VestalfromLove Is BlindSeason 6.
