How Does Love Is Blind: Habibi Work?
The format follows the main Love Is Blind franchise. Singles talk to each other from separate pods, where they can hear one another but cannot see each other. They can get engaged before they meet in person. Engaged couples then meet face to face and go on a retreat together before deciding whether to marry.
Netflix says this version asks whether the bonds formed in the pods can survive physical attraction, family expectations and cultural traditions. If you follow the American version, our Love Is Blind season 11 guide covers the Boston cast, the schedule and the couples.
What Happened to the Season 1 Couples?
Season 1 premiered in October 2024 with 20 singles and was nominated for an International Emmy. It was filmed in Abu Dhabi and Dubai in the UAE, with the engaged couples spending time at a resort in Byblos, Lebanon. Six couples got engaged, and only one made it to the altar.
- Safa and Mohammad: the only couple to marry. They announced in September 2025 that they are expecting their first child.
- Asma and Khatab: split after a brief time together.
- Hajar and Simo: ended things before the wedding.
- Dounia and Chafic: confirmed in 2025 that they had parted ways.
- Karma and Ammar: called off their engagement.
- Nour and Mido: ended their engagement.
