Unfortunately, her marriage with her high school sweetheart didn't work out, leading them to part ways after five years. This disclosure was a difficult moment for Chelsea, as she was skeptical about sharing such personal information on the show. She broke down emotionally while discussing her past marriage, especially when sharing this aspect with Jimmy. Despite her concerns, both Jimmy and Trevor showed understanding and continued to express interest in building a connection with her, highlighting their acceptance of Chelsea's past and a willingness to move forward in their relationships.

Who did Chelsea from 'Love is Blind' Season 6 pick? 

Chelsea found herself in a unique situation when both Trevor and Jimmy approached her on the show. Trevor was the first to express his feelings, proposing to her and declaring his love. This gesture deeply moved Chelsea, and she became emotional while sharing the experience with the other female contestants. However, when things didn't go well with Jessica, Jimmy took the opportunity to propose to Chelsea.

He got down on his knees during the episode, and Chelsea, touched by his gesture, chose Jimmy. The two became engaged, marking a significant moment in their Love Is Blind journey. In general, Chelsea was smitten by Jimmy's looks, finding him extremely handsome when they finally met in person. This physical attraction, combined with the emotional connection they had developed within the pod, played a crucial role in her decision to pick Jimmy over Trevor.
