Jimmy Presnell appears to have learned a valuable lesson after he was infamously name-dropped at the Love Is Blind season 8 reunion.

“So, with the new season of Love Is Blind about to drop, [I saw] a bunch of the cast members followed me, sending some DMs,” Jimmy, 30, said in a TikTok video shared on Saturday, September 20. “I just want to come on here and say [that] I will not be answering any questions. I will not be giving out any advice.”

He continued, “I got burned the last time around, and we’re retiring from consultation [in the] world of reality TV. So, don’t look to me for answers.”

Jimmy appeared on season 6 of Love Is Blind, where he got engaged to now-ex Chelsea Blackwell sight unseen. The pair ultimately called it quits before their scheduled wedding day.

Courtesy of Netflix Chelsea Blackwell and Jimmy Presnell conquered the Love Is Blind season 6 pods but it still wasn’t enough to get them down the aisle. Jimmy and Chelsea got engaged sight unseen inside the Love Is Blind pods after they both pursued strong connections with several people.  However, days before their wedding day, […]

In the seasons since Jimmy’s turn on the pod experiment, he was open to discuss the show and share advice with other contestants. During the season 8 reunion, Sara Carton claimed her ex-fiancé, Ben Mezzenga, wanted them to get on the same page ahead of the tell-all taping after receiving advice from a former Love Is Blind participant. While Ben, 30, declined to reveal the name of his source, Sara, 29, revealed that it was, indeed, Jimmy.

The ninth season of Love Is Blind will premiere on Netflix next month, opening the pods to a crop of Denver-based singles.

“If you’ve already DM’ed me and you just get a thumbs-up or you don’t get a response, I’m sorry, [but] I’m not involving myself in that world,” Jimmy added in his TikTok upload. “I really wish I could help you, but the risk-reward is not worth it for me. Best of luck, you’re on your own buddy.”

While Jimmy won’t answer any personal questions from newbie cast members, he did offer a generic piece of advice in his Saturday post.

“It’s going to feel like the whole universe is watching you for a three-month period, maybe stretching to six to months depending on how much the season pops,” he quipped. “It’ll be over before you know it [and] my advice is to enjoy the ride, try to learn, take accountability where you messed up and try to understand everybody’s got their own opinion on the internet — and a lot of eyeballs will be on you.”

Love Is Blind exes Chelsea Blackwell and Jimmy Presnell sparked reconciliation speculation after filming the season 6 reunion, but there’s nothing more to the story. “He has been very wonderful for me during this whole journey,” Chelsea, 31, said during the Tuesday, March 19, episode of the “Viall Files” podcast. “We are just friends [and] […]

Jimmy conceded, “It’s a wild ride, but it’ll be over before you know it so make the most of it, have fun with it, laugh at it and you’ll be fine.”

Just as Jimmy plans to stay out of the fray, show cohost Nick Lachey — who helms the show alongside his wife, Vanessa Lachey — previously teased what fans can expect in the new episodes.

“I kind of know how it ends up, but I’m certainly not going to give that away, but it’s interesting,” Nick, 51, exclusively told Us Weekly in August. “It’s such a special project for Vanessa and I, but we honestly don’t know the ins and outs of the season until we get to watch it ourselves. … So for us, we’re as anxious and as curious as anyone else about how everything kind of played out. We know the beginning, we know the end, but we don’t know the middle.”

Love Is Blind season 9 premieres on Netflix Wednesday, October 1.
