Kacie Revealed as Ultimate Love is Blind Villain During Denver Season Reunion

The gaslighting, clout chasing and mid-breakup straddling were already enough to earn Kacie a spot in the hall of fame of Love is Blind villains. But the final episode of the Denver-based season proved once and for all that Kacie is, indisputably, The Worst.

After abandoning the show and her fiancé, Patrick, during episode six, Kacie returned for the season nine reunion, released on Wednesday, October 29. And she immediately reminded viewers why they hadn’t missed her.

Kacie was exposed earlier in the season for lying to Patrick about the reason for their breakup, insisting that it was just a coincidence she wanted to leave the show mere hours after meeting him in person. She cried, kissed and practically dry-humped Patrick while pouting that the evil producers were going to spin the situation to make it seem like she wasn’t attracted to him. Then, in the next scene, hidden camera footage showed Kacie explicitly telling producers that she was dumping Patrick due to her lack of attraction.

So did Kacie use the reunion to apologize and take accountability? Of course not. Instead, she defended her lies as an attempt to “protect” Patrick, rather than a desperate effort to save face and salvage her Instagram career.

Kacie went on to frame Patrick as the bad guy, criticizing him for joking about the situation on social media and for saying he had a stronger connection with Anna early in the dating process. She also doubled down on her refusal to return the engagement ring to him, noting that Patrick said she could keep the ring during their straddling conversation. Patrick pointed out that he said that when he didn’t realize the relationship was over, as Kacie delivered the half-baked breakup with her tongue down his throat.

In a dramatic, pre-orchestrated show of good faith, Kacie finally returned the ring to Patrick on the reunion stage…only to take it back from him moments later when she beat him in a basketball shooting contest.

As it turns out, Kacie’s antics extended beyond terrorizing Patrick. The reunion revealed that after the show wrapped, Kacie briefly dated fellow contestant Joe, who was engaged to Madison during the season. But according to Madison, Kacie took aim at Joe before he and Madison broke up.

Madison claimed that Kacie openly flirted with Joe and rubbed his chest during a night out after the couple’s wedding attire fittings. Joe ended things with Madison the next day, which she partially attributed to Kacie’s interference, though Joe denied that. (It’s not the only such accusation made against Kacie. Joe’s current girlfriend recently told media outlets that their relationship “did not stop [Kacie] from continuously trying” to reignite things with Joe.)

Kait made a similar claim during the reunion episode. After leaving the pods, Kait said she and Brenden went on a date, and Kait excitedly gushed about the blossoming connection to the girls at a party at Kacie’s apartment. But that same night, Kacie and Brenden were “all over each other,” she alleged. Kacie rejected the story, arguing that Patrick was at the party and she would never do that in front of him, though Patrick emphatically denied being there.

While her on-screen behavior wasn’t as overtly evil as Shake’s from season two or Stephen’s from season seven, these behind-the-scenes revelations definitely place Kacie among them on Love is Blind’s suck list.

But here’s some good news: Despite her best efforts to milk these fifteen minutes of fame, Kacie currently has fewer Instagram followers than Patrick, Madison and even Joe. Maybe there’s justice in the world after all.

All episodes of Love is Blind: Denver are now available to stream on Netflix.
