Love Is Blind Netherlands: Which Couples Are Still Together? Current Status After Episode 5

Netflix’s ‘Love Is Blind: Netherlands’ has already produced five engagements, but the first batch of episodes leaves nearly every relationship with a question hanging over it. Mika and Jurriaan appear to be enjoying one of the smoother retreats, while Mirella and Gino are struggling to match each other’s emotional pace. Jaslynn and Ludo have gone from an easy connection in the pods to serious disagreements, while Yasemin and Roël are facing doubts of their own. Meinou and Marc-Vincent have also discovered that getting engaged without seeing each other was only the beginning of the experiment.

For viewers wondering which ‘Love Is Blind Netherlands’ couples are still together, there is an important distinction to make. As of October 1, 2026, none of the five couples has publicly confirmed whether they are still together after filming, and Netflix has deliberately kept the final outcomes under wraps. Episodes 1 through 5 arrived on September 30, Episodes 6 through 8 will follow on October 7, and Episode 9 arrives on October 14, with the reunion scheduled for a still-unannounced date. Therefore, the statuses below reflect where every couple stands after Episode 5 rather than claiming to reveal marriages or breakups that the series has not yet shown.

Mika and Jurriaan Are Still Together After Episode 5

Mika and Jurriaan Schipper had one of the season’s most complicated journeys even before they saw each other for the first time. Their connection initially grew through deeply personal conversations, but it almost collapsed when Mika declined to reveal her surname because she believed it would disclose her background. Jurriaan subsequently said that he did not know whether he could date a woman of color, which understandably changed Mika’s perception of their connection. When they spoke again, Jurriaan acknowledged that he had expressed himself badly and told her that what they had built mattered more to him than assumptions about physical appearance.

Mika ultimately chose to continue exploring the relationship, and Jurriaan proposed before the pair finally met face-to-face. Unlike some of the other engaged couples, their physical meeting did not immediately introduce another obstacle, as their attraction appeared to reinforce the emotional connection they had developed in the pods. Their time during the retreat also remains relatively affectionate through the first batch, leaving Mika and Jurriaan still engaged and together on the show after Episode 5. However, neither has confirmed whether they remained a couple once filming ended, meaning any claim that they are currently married or still dating would be premature.

Mirella and Gino Are Still Engaged, But Their Relationship is Already Being Tested

Mirella de Bruin did not immediately settle on Gino Zandbergen during the pod stage because she had also established a connection with Wouter. Over time, however, her conversations with Gino convinced her that he was the person with whom she could envision building something more serious. The two connected particularly strongly while discussing relationships, family, and the kind of future they wanted to create. Mirella eventually ended her romantic possibility with Wouter and accepted Gino’s proposal, sending the pair into the next phase of the experiment together.

Zanzibar exposes an issue that had been much easier to overlook while Mirella and Gino were separated by a wall. Mirella begins to feel that she is offering more affection and emotional reassurance than she is receiving, while Gino admits that his feelings have not developed at exactly the same intensity or speed. That does not result in an on-screen breakup during the first five episodes, so Mirella and Gino remain together at the latest point shown by Netflix. Their real-life status remains unconfirmed, and the uncertainty created during the retreat makes their transition into everyday life one of the relationships worth watching in the next batch.

Jaslynn and Ludo Are Still Together Despite Their Major Zanzibar Fight

Jaslynn Netscher and Ludo Jacobs connected over their similar interest in travel and adventure, although their route toward an engagement was not completely straightforward. Ludo had also developed feelings for Meinou and admitted that Jaslynn had not originally been his first choice, creating a complication that could easily resurface once all of the contestants met in person. After Meinou pursued another connection, Ludo committed himself to seeing where his relationship with Jaslynn could go. Their chemistry initially seemed to justify that decision when they finally entered the retreat as an engaged couple.

The atmosphere changes when Jaslynn becomes uncomfortable with Ludo interacting with women he previously dated in the pods. A misunderstanding over one of those conversations escalates rather than disappearing, and the pair find themselves in one of the biggest arguments of the retreat. They also do not appear completely aligned about their timetable for having children, with Jaslynn expressing a clearer and more immediate idea of what she wants. Jaslynn and Ludo have not officially broken up by the end of the released batch, but their relationship is clearly under greater pressure than it was when they became engaged.

Meinou and Marc-Vincent Remain a Couple After Their First Serious Disagreement

Meinou Diana’s pod journey becomes important to more than one relationship because she initially forms a connection with both Ludo and Marc-Vincent Spanjersberg. Her eventual choice of Marc-Vincent indirectly pushes Ludo toward pursuing his connection with Jaslynn more seriously, linking the two couples even before everyone reaches the retreat. Meinou and Marc-Vincent nevertheless enter the post-pod stage believing they have found enough emotional compatibility to take the enormous step of becoming engaged. Meeting physically then forces them to discover whether that confidence survives conversations that are less controlled than those inside the pods.

By Episodes 4 and 5, the relationship is no longer completely friction-free, with the pair encountering their first notable disagreement. Dutch reality podcast ‘Reality Check,’ which covered the two retreat episodes immediately after their release, similarly highlighted Meinou and Marc-Vincent’s first argument as one of the developments from the batch. Nothing currently available establishes that the disagreement leads to a breakup, however, and their latest on-screen status remains that of an engaged couple continuing the experiment. There is also no reliable public confirmation yet showing whether they remained together after filming.

Yasemin and Roël Are Still Engaged, But Yasemin Has Serious Doubts

Yasemin Kuskal and Roël van Klaveren emerge from the pods as another engaged pair, but leaving the controlled dating environment makes their relationship considerably harder to read. The retreat forces Yasemin to compare the connection she imagined before seeing Roël with the reality of building a romantic and physical relationship with him. That uncertainty becomes increasingly noticeable as the first batch progresses, and contemporary Dutch discussion of Episodes 4 and 5 has focused heavily on how emotionally withdrawn Yasemin appears. The situation gives their engagement a very different tone from the certainty that was required for a proposal inside the pods.

However, doubts should not be confused with a confirmed breakup. Netflix has not yet shown Yasemin and Roël reaching a final decision about their relationship, nor have they publicly revealed a definitive post-filming outcome that can currently be treated as confirmation. They should therefore still be listed as together within the experiment after Episode 5, with their real-world status unknown. Their relationship is likely to be especially important when the experiment shifts away from Zanzibar and into everyday life, where the engaged couples will have to confront families, living arrangements, and the approaching weddings.

So, Which Love Is Blind Netherlands Couples Are Actually Still Together?

After Episode 5, all five principal engaged couples – Mika and Jurriaan, Mirella and Gino, Jaslynn and Ludo, Meinou and Marc-Vincent, and Yasemin and Roël, remain part of the relationship experiment, although several are already experiencing serious problems. Mika and Jurriaan have so far moved beyond their biggest pod-stage conflict, while Mirella and Gino are dealing with different emotional speeds. Jaslynn and Ludo’s communication problems have become increasingly difficult to ignore, and both Meinou and Marc-Vincent and Yasemin and Roël have begun encountering doubts that were not as obvious before meeting face-to-face. What cannot yet be said responsibly is which of these couples are still together today, because Netflix and the participants have not revealed those outcomes.

Viewers will get substantially clearer answers soon rather than having to rely on social-media speculation. Netflix releases Episodes 6 through 8 on October 7, 2026, followed by Episode 9 on October 14, when the experiment will be much closer to its final decisions at the altar. The season consists of ten installments in total, with the tenth being a reunion whose release date has yet to be announced. That reunion should ultimately provide the most reliable answer about which relationships survived not merely the pods and weddings, but life after filming as well.
