Love Is Blind: Tyler Francis' sperm donor scandal, explained

In case anyone was too focused on the drama between Stephen and Monica or Ramses and Marissa and forgot all about what Tyler did that made people wonder whether or not Ashley would stay by his side, it was revealed that he had hidden a major part of his history from her.

It was revealed that Tyler had previously donated his sperm to a close friend in order to help his friend conceive three children. According to Tyler, he wasn't that close to the friend and her wife that he helped have children and had no relationship with the children, but social media sleuths found out that Tyler may have been lying about some of those details

Social media users found pictures of Tyler with the children and immediately had some questions, not just about why he hid the truth until after he and Ashley were engaged, but why he had allegedly lied about his relationship with his biological children.

After Tyler did come clean about his past and the children he had fathered as a sperm donor, Ashley was understandably upset about the revelation and said that their communication was such an important part of their relationship to her, which was pretty ironic.

Despite the fact that things were slightly rocky for Tyler and Ashley after he came clean about the children, the two of them still walked down the aisle and now, fans were left wondering if the two of they were going to come to the reunion together still married or if Tyler hiding such a major part of his past was a dealbreaker for them.

Are Ashley and Tyler still together at the Love Is Blind reunion?

Unfortunately for many fans who immediately took their disappointment to social media, Tyler and Ashley came to the Love Is Blind reunion together and spent the reunion seemingly trying to convince viewers to believe in their marriage as much as the two of them do.

The fact that Ashley said their communication was such a massive part of their connection during season 7 of Love Is Blind while Tyler was hiding a major part of his life and now, the fact that Tyler said that Ashley loves him unconditionally are two things that fans of the dating show just can't wrap their minds around.

Much of the social media commentary surrounding the reunion special has understandably been focused on the fact that Tyler and Ashley are still together, but Tyler isn't staying silent about their comments.

Tyler says he doesn't owe viewers an explanation for his past

At the reunion, Tyler spoke up about the fact that he had kept a secret from Ashley and was facing so much backlash on social media for it. But according to Tyler, that's between him and Ashley and that he had told Ashley all the details of his relationship with the children.

"I don't owe anyone an explanation but my wife... I'm good, we're good, and I'm not gonna keep harping on it," Tyler said at the reunion after acknowledging that the whole world was waiting for him to give an explanation for his past.

And according to Ashley, she wasn't as "blindsided" as people thought she was by the fact that Tyler had a relationship with the children he fathered.

She said, "Who do you think has better insight on what's going on? Social media or me? For people to imply that she was blindsided, she didn't know, is insulting to my intelligence."

The pair both agreed that their love was a "once-in-a-lifetime" type of love and that it's "worth it all" when they were speaking about each other and their decision to stay married.
