Surely Chris Fusco did not sign up for “Love Is Blind” to become its failure mascot, but here we are. For most of the romance reality show’s 10th season, the account executive seems like a standard-issue OK guy with a quirk about taking daily cold plunges. He said all the right things to his eventual fiancée, infectious disease physician Jessica Barrett, while they were dating. During their couples’ getaway in Mexico, both seemed to have a sexy good time.
Only when they return to Ohio, and Fusco lays eyes on his fiancée’s large and well-appointed home, does he transform into Mr. Hyde. Fusco sits her down in the apartment they share to discuss his problem with their relationship: her body. He’s used to dating women who keep it tight, he explains. And Barrett, who works the long hospital shifts required to save people’s lives, isn’t cutting it.
