Devonta Anderson Defends His Fiancée and Claims He Didn’t Lead Brittany Wicker On During ‘Love Is Blind’

Devonta Anderson Defends His Fiancée and Claims He Didn’t Lead Brittany Wicker On During ‘Love Is Blind’
Key Points Devonta Anderson, who was paired up with Brittany Wicker during Love Is Blind season 10, dropped a major bombshell about his relationship status after calling off their wedding. During the show’s reunion special, Devo revealed he is expecting his first child with his new fiancée, whom he met before Love Is Blind. Now, he’s issued a statement defending his fiancée, clearing up his relationship timeline with Brittany, and calling out podcasters for spreading false narratives. Devonta Anderson is not here for all the commentary on his relationships. The Ohio native-turned-TV personality was one of the featured guys on Love Is Blind season 10, where he connected with Brittany Wicker in the pods. However, they ended up calling off their wedding after Devo felt he “didn’t connect” with Brittany…and months later, he crashed a “girls’ trip” to Austin with Bri McNees, Ashley Carpenter, and Priyanka Grandhi without telling his then-fiancée. Oh, you thought this mess was done? Nope. Devo fully dropped a bombshell during the Love Is Blind season 10 reunion when he revealed he was engaged and expecting his first child. Though he revealed he met his fiancée before his time on Love Is Blind, he kept her identity under wraps. Now, Devonta has taken to Instagram to clear up some narratives about his relationships that have been spread by podcasters. “It's honestly wild how many miserable people are upset that I chose not to stay in a relationship that wasn't right for me. The narrative that I ‘led Brittany on’ is just that, a narrative. She’s a grown woman who could’ve left at any point, what you saw was me being real instead of forcing a marriage just to satisfy people watching from their couches,” he wrote, in part, before confirming that Brittany wasn’t his “usual type” (which viewers and internet sleuths have clocked as white women). He added, “At the reunion, there was even a clip of her asking if I had dated a woman of color, I answered honestly, but like a lot of things, the full context wasn’t shown. The people in that room saw it, and that’s enough for me.” Ahead of the season finale, Brittany told Cosmo that she had bought a wedding dress before entering the pods because she “was very, very hopeful.” At the time, she added, “I was going into [Love Is Blind] prepared with a dress that I knew fit me... It was not, ‘I have a dress, so I have to get married.’ It was, ‘I’m not going to force something to happen, and if it does happen, great, I’m prepared.’” Netflix Elsewhere in his statement, Devo admitted, “At the end of the day, I came into this experience open, I grew from it, and I learned to be more direct and to stop sacrificing my peace to keep others comfortable.” He then slammed podcasters for “spreading false narratives” without reaching out to him directly. “Not one of them has reached out for a real conversation, that should tell you everything, they don’t want truth, they want attention, and too many people online feed into drama and half stories,” he wrote, before clarifying that he and Brittany’s relationship didn’t pan out because their needs were “fundamentally different.” At the end of his message, he fiercely defended his fiancée (who, btw, he just hard-launched in a reel) and their unborn child, writing, “And to the people speaking on my current relationship, mocking my partner, and even bringing up our future child, that’s just sad. We as humans need to do better about judging people we’ve never met or had a real conversation with. I am happy, I am in love, and I can’t wait to meet our baby. Have a blessed day.” Well, then!
