‘Love Is Blind’: Does Megan Walerius Have a Baby & New Boyfriend? What We Know
[Warning: The following contains MAJOR spoilers for Love Is Blind Season 9, Episodes 1-12.]
Sparkle Megan may not have become a stepmom during her time on Love Is Blind, but that doesn’t mean the Season 9 Pod Squader‘s family hasn’t grown since her time on the show.
On October 21, The Sun reported that Love Is Blind Season 9 star Megan Walerius, better known by fans as Sparkle Megan, was spotted with a mystery man and a baby outside of her Denver home. Naturally, the photos, which were taken on October 18 (before the finale aired), caused fans to question the identity of her mystery man and if the newborn baby in the photos is the Love Is Blind star’s child. Spoiler alert: The mystery man is definitely not her now ex-fiancé, Jordan Keltner.
So, does this mean Megan Walerius has a baby? Plus, is that her new boyfriend? Below, we’re breaking down everything we know about Megan’s relationship status after Love Is Blind and clearing up the post-season timeline.

Does Megan Walerius have a baby?
At this time, Megan has not confirmed that she has had a baby since her time on Love Is Blind. That being said, here’s everything we know about the rumors.
According to The Sun, “A mystery man, who is not Jordan, was seen going in and out of Megan’s home holding a newborn baby on October 19 and 20.” It was also reported that “the man holding the baby stared lovingly at the child while outside.” Now, just because a baby was spotted at Megan’s house does not mean that it’s her baby. For all we know, that man could be a relative or a friend who has a baby or is even babysitting.
Does Megan Walerius have a new boyfriend?
Before the reunion, the entire Love Is Blind cast is not allowed to reveal if they are in a new relationship. (Joe Ferrucci and his new girlfriend are the rare exception.) For that reason, Megan has not confirmed that she is seeing someone new, even though this man reportedly “seems to be living in Megan’s home. He has been in and out at all hours of the day.”
While Megan has not commented on her relationship status, the reality TV star did make it clear that she intends to date more privately in the future. During an exclusive interview with Swooon, Megan admitted, “I prefer to keep personal life private now. I think this whole experience was just such a big deep dive into my personal life. I’m just kind of gonna keep that to myself.”

How long has it been since Love Is Blind Season 9 was filmed?
Could Sparkle Megan have gone through an entire pregnancy between when Season 9 was filmed and when it premiered? Absolutely.
Based on reports from cast members, it appears that Love Is Blind Season 8 and Season 9 were filmed back-to-back. Since it has been confirmed that Season 8 was filmed in early 2024 (Taylor Haag and Daniel Hastings will celebrate their second anniversary in March 2026), it’s clear that Season 9 was filmed over a year ago. Based on a photo posted on Mother’s Day 2024 that was clearly taken on the day Megan’s mom met Jordan, Cosmopolitan estimates that Season 9 was filmed in March or April of 2024.
Why did Megan Walerius and Jordan Keltner break up?
Love Is Blind fans now know that Megan and Jordan broke up during the season finale, making these rumors even more plausible. During an exclusive interview with Swooon, Megan revealed the real reason she decided to break things off with the single dad. She shared, “Towards the end of the experiment, we had a few days where it was just Jordan and I, and sometimes it felt like he was just a different person. I think it became a lot clearer to me that maybe we weren’t as compatible as I thought we were, and that really scared me.”
