Are Katisha and Javen Still Together from Love Is Blind UK?
No, Katisha and Javen are no longer together after their rocky journey on Love Is Blind UK season 2, but their story is still the kind you end up rehashing with friends over brunch, hoping for a happier twist. At first, these two seemed like they might pull off the fairytale they bonded over big families, childhood messes, and dreams of someday wrangling two or three kids of their own.
He’s the youngest, she’s the eldest of seven, both dragging some emotional baggage, but, you know, totally up for a new adventure. For a minute, it was the sort of connection that made you root for them just a little harder, even if their road had the usual Love Is Blind potholes: the love triangle, the missed cues, the nearly botched proposal.
Here’s where it gets juicy: Katisha, strong-willed but at times painfully guarded, almost chose Demola over Javen Demol, a man who, in true reality TV fashion, wrote poems and said everything Javen wouldn’t. But when it came down to the wire, Javen, the “I play it cool until I absolutely can’t” type, showed up with flowers and the sudden confession Katisha needed to hear. She (literally!) circled back, ditched Demola, and got engaged to Javen, leaving Demola blinking in shock.
You’d expect a happily ever after… but, yeah, not so fast. Once the pod squad decamped to Cyprus, suspicions started swirling over Katisha’s about-face, while the rest of the cast raised eyebrows about whether the two were truly in it for the right reasons.
There were fights, misunderstandings, and then a classic Love Is Blind UK “off-screen” drama twist. On a fateful night out with the rest of the group, Javen, whose eye for the ladies doesn’t turn off when he’s committed, started flirting with single castmates, making it very clear to some that he might not be in love with Katisha.
Back at the apartment, Javen left Katisha at home to continue the party, leading to rumors (and actual on-camera confessions) about him cozying up to other women and even heading into a photo booth for some less-than-innocent moments. Honestly, it sounds like the dudes’ behavior at your average wedding afterparty, except, y’know, with Netflix cameras rolling and everyone watching every move.
By the next day, the writing was on the wall. Multiple witnesses, lots of upset feelings, and conversations that read less as “we’re sorting this out” and more as “are we done here?” sealed their fate. Katisha and Javen split before ever making it to the altar, one of those breakups that’s more of a long, slow exhale than a dramatic fireworks display, but still stings if you were rooting for them.
One of the fans, V. (@_nottsosane) shared on Twitter that Javen treated Katisha badly by gaslighting her—flirting, leaving her upset, then blaming her instead of himself.
Another fan shared on Twitter, Ama (@amackieee), that Javen only pursued Katisha because he felt in competition with Demola, calling him manipulative and useless.
Since then, both seem to be embracing life solo: Katisha focusing on her work as a nanny, makeup artist, and increasingly visible model, and Javen diving into his roles as a health coach, business co-founder, and, presumably, life of the next party.
Love Is Blind UK made it clear that sometimes, even the couples you think might “just work” end up teaching you more about self-respect and second chances than soulmates and fairy tales. For Katisha and Javen, the answer to “are they still together?” is a resounding nope, but their journey? Pure, messy, unforgettable reality TV gold.
