DALLAS TEXAS: ‘Love Is Blind’ Season 3 ended on a bitter-sweet note after only two couples walked out with matching last names, while three split up. Although Raven Ross and SK ended up dating after the show, Bartise Bowden and fiancee Nancy Rodriguez were not so lucky. After Bartise dumped Nancy at the alter, humiliating her in front of the entire wedding party, the speech pathologist blamed the fiance analyst for “gaslighting” her.

Bartise and Nancy faced many issues throughout the season. Such as his confession of holding onto feelings for other women and being attracted to Raven. His brutal honesty indeed served as a pain point for Nancy. But the brunette beauty did not give up on love and continued to believe that the pair could make it work, even after facing multiple setbacks. But on the couple’s wedding day, while Nancy said yes to Bartise, the latter suffered a serious case of cold feet and rejected his fiancee. He stated he was “not ready” for the commitment, which provoked Nancy to question if her almost-husband had “gaslit” her the entire time. Nancy’s family was also not pleased about the ordeal and threatened Bartise to stay away from Nancy. Her mother stated that Bartise was not ready for Nancy and added, “It’s cause you’re too much for him.”

After a heated debate over Bartise’s decision to say “No” at the altar, Nancy walked away from her ex-fiance, telling him they were “done.” Later, the couple crossed paths again for the reunion episode. And here is where the pair’s relationship got even more bitter as two other contestants dished a scandalous detail regarding the “runaway groom.” As the conversation during the reunion shifted to Bartise and Nancy’s tragic wedding, Alexa Alfia and Raven Ross brought up the subject of the finance analyst’s rebound affair. Apparently, Bartise had been spotted with a “tall, blonde woman” after the disastrous wedding and what’s more shocking is that the rebound happened only three days after the tragic event. Nancy explained further that she saw the “tall, blonde girl” all over Bartise and on his lap on social media, which caused Bartise to get defensive over his “sex life.” He revealed that he did go on a date, but it was his way of “coping” with the grief. And said that something also “happened” with the girl at a boat party but pointed out, “I don’t think my sex life is anybody’s business here.”



 

Fans were unimpressed by Bartise’s quick rebound affair and took to Twitter to express their thoughts. One fan noted, “Bartise is just gross. I knew he was never that serious about Nancy, and his way if “coping” with the so called heartbreak after the wedding by spending time with a tall blonde 3 days after.” Another sarcastically penned, “Bartise drowned his sorrows in a tall blonde woman.” While a viewer was not surprised by his actions and wrote, “Nancy, are you really shocked that Bartise was with a tall blonde? You don’t fit the description… yet you still took up for him at the reunion. You took the disrespect and called it “brutal honesty.” You’re a narcissists wet dream.” Another expressed a similar opinion and said, “Bartise rebounding with a tall blonde isn’t surprising AT ALL...i wouldn’t be surprised if the tall blonde has been there the whole time.” One fan noted, “Oh that’s why Bartise said no. He had a boat party and a tall blonde to get to that weekend.” And one critiqued, “Not Bartise with some blonde the DAY after the wedding!! And then days after! The audacity to call it “coping”!!!!” Another viewer also called out his method of “coping” penning, “Bartise was with a blonde the next f*****g day??? He said he was using her to cope?? I am crying tears.”
