Love is Blind contestant accuses Netflix of ‘traumatic’ experience in lawsuit

Renee Poche accuses streamer and production company of emotional distress along with violations of labor and civic codes

A new lawsuit alleges drugs, abuse, imprisonment and emotional distress behind the scenes on Love Is Blind, the hit Netflix reality series in which contestants court each other sight unseen.

The lawsuit, filed against Netflix and the show's production company Delirium TV by Hollywood power lawyers Bryan Freedman and Mark Geragos in California, seeks to nullify the contract of former contestant Renee Poche and claims intentional infliction of emotional distress, along with numerous violations of the state's labor and civic codes.
