Lydia Velez Gonzalez<\/strong> and Milton Johnson<\/a><\/strong> are the only successful couple<\/a> to come out of Love Is Blind<\/em><\/a>\u2019s fifth season, but they\u2019re not currently living together.<\/p>\n

Milton recently took a new job in Long Beach, California, while Lydia continues to live in Houston, Texas. \u201cRight now we\u2019re really focused on our careers,\u201d Lydia told Entertainment Weekly<\/em><\/a> in an interview published on Monday, October 16, noting that she also started a new job about a month ago.<\/p>\n

Milton, meanwhile, has been in his job for a year, but he was just \u201crelocated\u201d to Long Beach. \u201cWe are trying to get used to this new schedule, and he\u2019s also doing his MBA,\u201d Lydia explained. \u201cHe loves to go to school, apparently, this is his second masters. We are just trying to really thrive in our careers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lydia said that she and Milton have been doing their best to make a long-distance romance work, but it\u2019s been a challenge.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just miss each other so much, so every second that we have together, we try to really cherish it and try to be there as much as we can for each other when we are actually in the same place,\u201d she explained. \u201cThe challenge is just traveling in airports. I hate airports so much, but besides that, it\u2019s been amazing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lydia and Milton got married during the Love Is Blind<\/em> season finale<\/a>, which premiered Friday, October 13. \u201cI think [what] it really just comes down to is our values were the same,\u201d Milton exclusively told Us Weekly<\/em><\/a> ahead of the season premiere. \u201cWe had the same morals, we wanted the same things out of life. From day one, it just kind of felt like a hit, just felt like a match. So, we just wanted to really pursue that and see where it could take us.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tSeason 5 of Love Is Blind only resulted in one love story \u2026 at least on the screen. Lydia Gonzalez and Milton Johnson were the only pair to wed on the fifth installment of the Netflix series, despite accusations that Lydia only went on the show to get back with fellow contestant Uche Okoroha. \u201cI [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The duo initially connected inside the pods because of their similar careers. Lydia is a geologist, while Milton works as an engineer in the oil and energy industry and thus often works with rocks.<\/p>\n
