Fans of reality dating shows have been used to seeing one particular face pop up on their screens in recent years – that of Ines Tazi, a star who has appeared on both “Love Is Blind” and the more recent Netflix hit “Perfect Match.”
However, in a surprising turn of events, Ines has now revealed that she has made the decision to abstain from participating in any additional dating reality TV programs moving forward.
“I’ve really had to do a lot of soul-searching over the past couple of years,” Ines shared in a candid interview. “And I’ve come to the realization that these types of shows, while fun and exciting, aren’t necessarily the healthiest environment for me personally.”
The 30-year-old went on to explain that the intense pressure and public scrutiny that comes with being on a dating reality show has taken a toll on her mental health and personal life. “It’s just not worth it anymore,” she admitted. “I need to prioritize my own well-being and growth.”
Ines’ decision seems to stem from some of the negative experiences she’s had after her stints on “Love Is Blind” and “Perfect Match.” While she was able to find connection and community on those shows, the aftermath has sometimes been more challenging.
“The trolling and criticism online can be really brutal,” Ines revealed. “And dealing with that on top of the emotional ups and downs of these types of shows has just become too much for me.”
Furthermore, Ines shared that she’s in a serious relationship now and has no desire to subject her partner to the fishbowl existence of reality TV dating. “I want to keep that part of my life private and protected,” she stated firmly.
Though disappointed fans will undoubtedly miss seeing Ines’ vibrant personality on future dating shows, many are applauding her decision to prioritize her own wellbeing. As one Twitter user commented, “Good for her. Mental health has to come first. I respect her choice.”
For now, Ines seems content to step away from the reality TV spotlight and focus on her personal life. “I’ve gotten so much out of those experiences, but I’m ready for the next chapter,” she said. “One that doesn’t involve cameras following my every move!”
Only time will tell if Ines’ self-imposed ban on dating shows will hold firm. But for now, the “Love Is Blind” and “Perfect Match” alum appears resolute in her decision to close that chapter of her life.
