Jessica Vestal’s journey of Love is Blind season 6

The reality star found herself connecting well with Jimmy Presnell in the pods, while the latter was exploring his bond with Chelsea Blackwell. During an episode, Jessica broke the news about being a single mother to Jimmy, stating she’s a big part of her life. The executive assistant revealed she’s looking for someone who wouldn’t only just be her partner but also accept becoming a step-parent to her child.

Jimmy, who was initially taken aback by the revelation, confessed at a later date he was open to taking on a parental role, which made Jessica fall for him. However, eventually, Jimmy decided to choose Chelsea over Jessica. While ending their connection on Love is Blind, Jimmy noted:

“I know that you’re already an incredible mother. You’re going to be an amazing wife for someone else. At this point, I love someone else.”

Jessica, who was hopeful about a future with him, tearfully called him out for leading her on and also “ruining” the opportunity for her. She slammed him saying:

“When you see and realise what you missed out on, you are going to choke. You're gonna choke. You are going to need your EpiPen to open up your airways because you are going to be in disbelief at what you missed out on.”

Though Jessica couldn’t find a partner in Love is Blind season 6, she returned to the show after all the engaged couples came back from their trip. She met Laura Dadisman and disclosed Jimmy sent her a follow request on Instagram, only to remove it eight hours later. Jessica confessed she still had feelings for him and is leaning toward the idea of catching up with him.
