Netflix’s behemoth “Love is Blind” broke into uncharted territory with the release of its “Habibi” edition earlier this month. And the huge response from viewers is proof that the dating reality series is doing very well in the Middle East. Celebrity couple Elham Ali and Khaled Saqer hosted the debut episode of a social experiment in which Arab singles connect, commit to marriage, but are invisible.
Many suitors were introduced, but only three couples made it down the wedding aisle, and only one of them ended up getting married. But that wasn’t the end for the other two couples. They decided to take their relationship beyond a social experiment, which left a big question mark on their current relationship status.
Now that there’s been some ups and downs in the wedding and dating realm for the participants, Netflix has finally released the reunion episode to see which couples are still together.
Mohammad and Safa: a happy married life
Safa, a finance manager, fell in love with Mohammed, a marketing and brand manager, during the pod. Despite a few hiccups here and there, their journey was one of the smoothest on the show. Safa and Mohammad’s families met officially to give their blessings, followed by a fairytale wedding ceremony in which they both said “I do” and began a happy married life.
Now, a year later, the couple has finally confirmed that they are together and are enjoying a happy married life. Mohammad explained that his love for Safa continues to grow day by day and the happy wife appreciates her husband’s mature attitude. They are planning to expand their family and have already decided that they want two children. Well, congratulations to the couple!

However, the couple ended their relationship on good terms and confirmed that they are friends with each other.
