contestant Tran Dang is suing production companies Kinetic Content and Delirium TV, claiming that she was sexually assaulted during her time on the fifth season of the hit reality series.
Both Kinetic Content and Delirium TV denied any allegations in a statement, following the initial reporting of the lawsuit. “We take any and all concerns of our participants seriously and prioritize their well-being. Obviously, we cannot address undisclosed concerns, and throughout the time that Ms. Dang was involved in the production of Love is Blind, she never informed the producers of any alleged wrongdoing of any kind. Nor did she choose to end her participation in the experiment. Instead, Ms. Dang continued in the experiment for weeks after the time her lawyers now claim an incident occurred.
Creator and CEO of Kinetic Content Chris Coelen denied those claims specifically, saying that contestants aren’t filmed all day, and are “living their lives” not on camera at times. ““We don’t mount cameras in the bedrooms or bathrooms. We don’t have any of those. They know when we’re around. As a true believer in these real relationships, I want them to know what it’s like to be with their partner,” Coelen said.
