'Love Is Blind' Season 5: Are Lydia and Milton Still Together?

Spoiler alert! If you haven't seen season 5 of Love Is Blind or the reunion special, proceed with caution.

In a mess of a season, one Love Is Blind couple made it through to marriage! Lydia Velez Gonzalez and James Milton Johnson IV (aka Milton) got through the drama and tied the knot on the season 5 finale. 

And on Sunday's reunion special, the couple is more in sync than ever, sharing some sweet footage from their second Puerto Rican wedding and their life as newlyweds. 

"Now, 5:30 hits and I've got to get home to my wife," Milton gushed. "Two years ago, I never could have imagined feeling this way, being this way. It's beautiful."

Milton shared that Lydia has gotten incredibly close with his family (a little too close) and now she goes to his mom to complain about him.

"They're all Team Lydia now!" he jokingly complained. 

And while Milton hasn't necessarily gotten good with cleaning, he did insist that he picks up his towels. 

"Having someone who has your back regardless of whether you had a disagreement in the morning," Lydia shared of her married life, saying, "I am so blessed." 

Milton went on to defend his wife after her past with contestant Uche Okoroha and his now-ex, Aaliyah Cosby, was discussed. 

"I will talk about my wife's character, because I guarantee you, it's a lot better than mine," Milton insisted. 

ET also spoke with the couple separately, directly after the reunion taped. 

"I know who I am and I know my intentions were pure and genuine, and honestly, I don't have anything to prove to anyone besides myself," Lydia tells ET of the exchange between her and Aaliyah.

Milton has no doubts about his wife or her intentions. 

"I've never doubted my wife's intentions. I think it's a tragedy that there are people who would try to distract or convolute who my wife is," he says. "I think it's unfortunate that my wife got backlash based on people of her past or what they said. I know my wife better than anyone else. She's gone through so much adversity that she's kind of just rolling through that."  

Love Is Blind season 5 is currently streaming on Netflix.
