What did Madison do with the love ring after Joe Split?

Love is blind season 9 stars Madison Maidenberg has revealed what she did with her engagement ring next Joe Ferrucci hastily called off their wedding after buying a tuxedo.

During a Thursday, October 16 performance in the series “Love to See It” podcastMadison, 28, was asked point-blank if she kept the diamond ring.

“I did, yes,” Madison said. “There’s no doubt about where the ring is going at this point.”

Madison and Joe, 29, got engaged unseen in the Love is blind pods, but their relationship was tested when they returned to the real world. Joe eventually broke up with the UX designer just days before their wedding, claiming that Madison wasn’t The One.

In the final batch of episodes, Joe stumbled through the cast’s tuxedos before abruptly leaving – with Sabrina Timmerman‘Manchild’ plays in the background. In the next scene, Madison tearfully tells her family that Joe just left while she was packing her suitcase.

“[There’s] a part that you don’t see in that conversation, where it’s like I have this determination to put into focus everything that I’ve experienced throughout our entire relationship,” Madison explained on the “Love to See It” podcast, referencing the now-exes’ discussion about ending their relationship. “It’s kind of a culmination of, ‘Okay, this is basically who you’ve been all along, and I was just idealizing you.'”

The conversation eventually got to a point where Madison realized that Joe “didn’t choose” her as a partner.

“I want and deserve to be chosen, and in the pods I felt so chosen,” Madison said. “I felt so wanted, and I literally haven’t felt that since [the] reveal. It was kind of like, ‘Okay, it’s time for me to be honest with myself and stop being such a lover’s girl and really allow the curtain to come down.’

During their divorce discussion, Madison decided it was time to take off her diamond ring.

“I think the moment I felt like it was really done was when I took off my ring,” she said. “I thought, ‘I don’t think I should be wearing this anymore. This conversation isn’t going anywhere else. I’m not getting an answer to this and I need to start my healing journey.'”

As for Joe, he reiterated We weekly that he and Madison just weren’t right for each other.

“It seemed like Madison was all in and what you would want in a person. I, on the other hand, had some concerns, nervous, scared, anxious. I never saw that coming from Madison,” he said exclusively Us earlier this week. “I think it scared me too, seeing that, and I know she wanted to continue the experiment, go through it, get as much out of it as she could, like, ‘Is this my person?’ More time to discover that. I think there was a certain breaking point for me where I could no longer continue.”

Joe finally reached that “breaking point” while tuxedo shopping.

“I definitely fell. At that moment, [I’m thinking]”Why do I do things like this when I have in my mind that I won’t be able to say yes on that wedding day?” Joe recalled. “It felt a little disingenuous on my part, and I could have handled it better. That’s the story of my experiment on TV. It just felt disingenuous on my part to even be there, if I didn’t think we had enough time to get there or if I knew this wasn’t my person.

Love is blind is currently streaming on Netflix. New episodes are released weekly.
