Love Is Blind season 3 couple Bartise Bowden and Nancy Rodriguez started off strong in the pods. However, as soon as the reveal took place, bad boy Bartise seemed to have buyer’s remorse. At the Malibu ranch, he lusted after “smoke show” and “baddie” Pilates instructor Raven Ross. Throughout their time back in Dallas, Bartise struggled with his lack of attraction for Nancy. Then there were the awkward meetings with Bartise and Nancy’s families. The whole process looked doomed except for Bartise perking up when he heard about Nancy’s rental property business he could share if they married. However, the money wasn’t enough to buy Bartise’s “I do” at the altar. So, what happened to Nancy and Bartise after Love Is Blind season 3 stopped filming?

A lot has happened to Bartise since Love Is Blind was filmed in the spring of 2021.
Bartise didn’t take long at all to rebound from his breakup with Nancy on their wedding day. According to Nancy, Raven and co-star Alexa Alfia, Bartise was spotted at the club with a tall blonde the day after the wedding. Bartise downplayed dating someone so quickly by saying he was “coping” with the breakup. He also became defensive and said his “sex life” wasn’t anyone’s business. To further defend himself, he said it wasn’t the day after the wedding when they eventually hooked up, but a few days later on a boat party with a lot of booze.

Most fans were disappointed he didn’t get grilled enough on the reunion and think Nancy dodged a bullet.
Bartise’s Instagram reveals he’s close with his family, mom Penny, dad Robert, and sister Amalia. The rest of his posts show he’s still single, enjoying working out nearly daily and partying and clubbing from time to time. Several weeks ago Bartise went a guys’ trip to Miami where a lot of alcohol was involved. When he isn’t playing hard, he’s working hard. Bartise is a financial risk analyst for a healthcare advisory firm called VMG Health, per his LinkedIn.

Bartise is now good friends with Cole Barnett, another Love Is Blind season 3 star who got labeled a villain. The two recently went to a Dallas Mavericks game together and got courtside seats. Unlike Bartise, Cole had a bit of a redemption arc after profusely apologizing and crying on the reunion episode. The Cuties Story scene aired at the end also helped restore his reputation.

Love Is Blind season 3 fans liked Nancy and felt sorry for her being stuck with Bartise as a fiancé. However, fans were critical staying with Bartise despite the red flags. They said she let herself get disrespected too much. She also took a lot of flack from viewers for her views on abortion. She said she would abort the fetus of her child if she found out it had a severe birth defect because of the families and children she worked with as a speech pathologist. Nancy issued an apology for her comments on the show.
