Viewers criticized the behavior, and Micah and Irina defended themselves in an interview with Entertainment Weekly. Micah explained that their humor and jokes were a coping mechanism for the intense experience, although she admitted they may not have always landed well. Irina emphasized that they did not intend to hurt anyone’s feelings and hoped to mend any bridges that they may have damaged.
“Me and Micah’s coping mechanism was laughing about it. And I honestly will say on the record, 100%, I did not intentionally ever want to hurt anyone. [Hearing] that I hurt people’s feelings genuinely breaks my heart,” Solomonova said.
Love Is Blind fans took to social media to express their disgust at Micah and Irina’s actions, calling them “disgusting” and “teenage mean girls.” The controversy surrounding the two contestants has sparked discussion about the impact of reality television and the ethics of entertainment.
