‘Love Is Blind’ fans wonder if mystery girl in Cole Barnett’s post is Zanab Jaffrey amidst Bartise Bowden drama
DALLAS, TEXAS: ‘The Love Is Blind’ fandom has experienced several emotions over Season 3 of the Netflix dating show. From raging over the show's alleged “red flags” — Matt Bolton, Bartise Bowden, and Cole Barnett — while whole wholeheartedly supporting Sikiru “SK” Alagbada (only to be conflicted about his cheating scandal later) and then later villainizing Zainab Jaffrey and Alexa Alfia Lemieux — it has been a hell of a ride.
And now, yet again the fandom is riled up over bad boy Bartise Bowden’s appearance at Cole Barnett’s Christmas celebrations. Cole, who gained the sympathy of fans after the ‘Love Is Blind’ Season 3 reunion, has gained plenty of popularity among fans. But after the reality star extended an invitation to his co-star, he seems to have earned the ire of many viewers as social media users unleashed their rage in the comments section of the photo he posted on Instagram. But that’s not all. While several netizens are furious over Bartise, a few are speculating about a 'mystery girl' in one of the pictures who they think is Cole’s ex-flame, Zanab.

On December 12, Cole posted some photos of an early Christmas celebration where he and his friends, along with some of the ‘Love Is Blind’ Season 3 cast members, are seen enjoying a jolly good time. Even his co-star Bartise joined in on the festivities. But what caused fans to rage in absolute fury was not Bartise’s ugly Christmas sweater but his very presence at Cole’s soiree. Expressing their anger in the comments, a netizen wrote, “Red flag that he’s hanging with Bartista” While another questioned, “Why are you hanging with bartise? 😭😭😭” A social media user claimed, “Resisting the natural urge to be mad at Bartiste. 😩😩” And another noted, “Cole, we don’t associate with Barstool.”
But while several netizens were fixated on Bartise, a few eagle-eyed fans were quick to speculate if the mystery girl in one of the photos, spotted talking to Cole, is his ex-flame Zanab. A netizen stated, "Everyone’s getting mad and upset over bar teeth being there but I’m over here wondering if that girl is Zanab. It better not be Zanab and that’s actually the person I’m worried about.” One person wrote, “Def looks like Zanab.” And another penned, “It better not be her. 🙄” A social media user thought it was definitely Zanab and wrote, “I spy Zay.”
