Vanessa Lachey, the cohost of Netflix show Love Is Blind is defending the show after people questioned why there is no body diversity on the show.
“Their whole life they’ve been so insecure about being themselves because of this crazy swipe generation that we are in and this catfishing world that we’re in, that they’re so afraid to be themselves,” she told Insider.
She continued, “I wonder if they truly don’t have enough time in those two weeks to find themselves, A, and then be themselves to then find that spouse.”
All of the contestants were slim and trim.
Show alum Danielle Ruhl responded to the remarks via E!
“There were certainly more confident women than myself who participated in this experience, regardless of body type,” she said.
“I can attest that many individuals with different body types, etc. were confident, enthusiastic and optimistic about finding love. Weight doesn’t and shouldn’t define someone’s confidence and after getting to know each woman, their confidence all shined and I admired them for it.”
