HOUSTON, TEXAS: Netflix's 'Love is Blind' Season 5 star Johnie Maraist was married before coming on the show and had briefly mentioned her relationship with her ex-husband, who is a bartender.

According to Distractify, Johnie's ex-husband is Mike Hulick, whom Johnie divorced in 2017. It is not revealed when exactly they got married.

According to Mike Hulick's Instagram profile, he is a bartender and a brown belt.

While on 'Love is Blind' Season 5, Johnie revealed that the first and only man she ever loved wasn't her ex-husband Mike. Despite being married to Mike, Johnie claimed on the show that she never loved him.

"My longest relationship was with someone who struggled with addiction," she told fellow contestant Izzy Zapata. But unfortunately, the addiction caused friction between them and they broke up. The person whom Johnie loved, unfortunately, died of a drug overdose.

Revealing that she never actually loved her ex-husband, Johnie told Izzy on the show, "My ex-husband was basically like a rebound."
