CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA: Fans of 'Love Is Blind' Season 6 are convinced that Jessica Vestal received a false edit in the show. The preview clip led viewers to believe that Jessica was attempting to undermine the bond between Jimmy Presnell and Chelsea Blackwell.

Contrary to the perception created by the clip, Jessica confessed that it was challenging for her to move on, but she expressed genuine happiness for the couple. Fans criticized Netflix for what they perceived as "thirsty" edits, portraying Jessica as the "villain" of the show despite her positive reaction to Jimmy and Chelsea's relationship.

A fan took to the Reddit with title "I was wrong." The fan explained, "I take everything I said back…the preview did Jessica dirty… I really appreciated how she acknowledged that she was wrong about her response in the pods, and took the mature route of wishing Jimmy and Chelsea happiness." 

Another agreed, "Yeah that edit was a**. She was very respectful and made me lol by saying oh not the church hug." "I agree, and they also both came across as very mature when talking together," a fan claimed about Jimmy and Jessica.

A user slammed the streaming platform, "I don't take a single thing in a reality show at face value. The editing tricks these things do are bonkers." Another wrote, "I actually think the true villains are the Netflix editors and producers. I think we’ll see a turnaround with Chelsea and Jimmy and they will get married."

During the beach party, Jimmy and Jessica sat down to have a conversation and clear the air between them. Jimmy admitted to Jessica, "I've never dated anyone remotely like you, personality-wise," which makes him nervous around her. Expressing gratitude to Jessica for spending quality time talking to him in the pods, Jimmy said, "If you give someone a portion of what you gave to me, someone's going to be the luckiest man in the world."

He continued to confess, "I care about you a lot, and in reality, you're still my number one." Jimmy clarified that he didn't mean to imply he still had romantic feelings for Jessica, as he had already made it clear that he is happily committed to Chelsea. His intention was simply to clear the air so that they wouldn't feel awkward around each other.

Are 'Love Is Blind' Season 6 couple Jimmy Presnell and Chelsea Blackwell still together?

It is speculated that Jimmy and Chelsea are still together. The couple managed to get past all the big fights. They have addressed all their insecurities to each other. The speculation of the couple still being together comes from Jimmy's recent Instagram post.

Jimmy uploaded a photo with Chelsea where both are seen kissing each other. Jimmy writes, "proof I kiss chels.' He went on to praise his possible wife, "On a real note, Chelsea is an amazing person and loves so hard. Due to time, a lot of the full story this far wasn’t shown. There are reasons we are both fighting for each other and sticking to our promise. It’s easy to make assumptions off of snippets of our relationship, but I wanted y’all to be easy on my girl."

He ended the post saying, "At the end of the day, we are all human, and it took a lot of courage for every one of us to put ourselves out there to find our person." To this, Chelsea replied, "My lil heart forever grateful."
