\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tBefore Brianna \u201cBri\u201d McNees (seemingly) found The One in the Love Is Blind pods, she had to choose between her respective connections with Connor Spies and Chris Fusco. \u201cWhen I was comparing Connor and Chris in the pods, let it be known that it was Connor or bust,\u201d Bri, 34, exclusively told Us Weekly after [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
News of their rekindling comes after Bri and Connor decided not to go through<\/a> with their planned nuptials ahead of the March 4 finale.<\/p>\n\u201cThis is the most bizarre, exciting, expansive, coolest thing I\u2019ve ever done and I couldn\u2019t have done it without you,\u201d Bri said in episode 11, which aired on Netflix late last month. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t have done it without you, like, there\u2019s no chance, but you\u2019re not getting the best of me right now because I have just been grinding.\u201d<\/p>\n
She continued, \u201cWhat\u2019s really sad is, like, I know I can give so much more. When I see my friends and family tell you [that] you\u2019re not getting the best version of me and \u2018This isn\u2019t me right now,\u2019 it really hurts.\u201d<\/p>\n
Despite her love for Connor, Bri questioned whether she was ready to walk down the aisle<\/a> with him.<\/p>\n\u201cYou really do love me for the good, the bad and the ugly,\u201d she said at the time. \u201cTransparently, when I came into your house, I see your car, [and] I\u2019m, like, \u2018This guy doesn\u2019t give a s*** about anything. What does this mean about how he\u2019s going to show up for a presentation of our house and our family and his job?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
According to Bri, seeing Connor\u2019s apparently lackluster belongings made her feel that he was \u201clazy\u201d and didn\u2019t have any pride in himself.<\/p>\n\n![\"Bri-and-Connor-Love_Is_Blind_n_S10_E7_00_19_35_05\"](\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Bri-and-Connor-Love_Is_Blind_n_S10_E7_00_19_35_05R.jpg?w=1000&quality=86&strip=all\")

Is he just going to be a liability?\u2019 I don\u2019t know. I\u2019m just so used to someone that\u2019s out-alpha\u2019d me [who has] been the leader.\u201d<\/p>\n
Connor, however, believed that he was ready to marry Bri and eventually start a family.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am optimistic, and I know that you\u2019re not going to run,\u201d he said of Bri\u2019s hopes to continue dating after the show wrapped. \u201cYou\u2019ve consistently proven that you\u2019re going to be there for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bri and Connor fell in love in the Love Is Blind <\/i>pods during season 10, which was set in Ohio. Before Connor popped the question sight unseen, Bri was also getting to know Chris Fusco<\/strong> before he ended their connection to pursue now-ex-fianc\u00e9e Jessica Barrett<\/strong>.<\/p>\nWhen Chris, 33, and Jessica, 39, split, he tried to shoot his shot with Bri at a cast party by claiming that Connor was too \u201csubmissive\u201d for his bride-to-be.<\/p>\n
\u201cI had a great relationship with him until, like you see, who you thought was a friend use some of the things that you told him in confidence against you to try and win your girl,\u201d Connor exclusively told Us Weekly <\/i><\/a>ahead of the March finale. \u201cIt\u2019s not usually going to work, especially in this situation, but it brought me and Bri together.\u201d<\/p>\nHe continued, \u201cI was surprised at the way he tried to do it, but it is what it is. We don\u2019t really talk anymore, as you can imagine.\u201d<\/p>\n
