In a brutally honest confession that’s sure to resonate with Love Is Blind fans, Lydia Velez Gonzalez is finally opening up about something deeply personal: her aching desire to become a mother — a dream she’s watching others live out, while still feeling painfully out of reach.
During a recent interview, Lydia didn’t hold back when talking about the wave of pregnancy announcements from fellow cast members like AD Smith and others.
“I’m So Happy for Them — But It’s Hard”
“I feel truly happy for them,” Lydia admitted. “But at the same time, it hurts more than I can say. Seeing people you care about start families — it’s beautiful, but it also makes you face what you don’t have yet.”
The Love Is Blind alum revealed how she’s been quietly struggling with the mix of joy for her friends and her own deep longing for motherhood.
A Dream She’s Yet to Fulfill
Fans watched Lydia’s journey on the show — full of hope, heartbreak, and growth. But she confessed that despite everything, one dream remains crystal clear: “I want to be a mother. I want to build a family. It feels like the missing piece of my life.”
She explained how it’s been difficult to watch others celebrate this milestone while she waits for her own moment. “It’s hard not to feel left behind, but I’m trying to hold on to hope.”
Grateful but Vulnerable
While Lydia expressed gratitude for her friends’ happiness, she was brutally honest about the emotional toll of her yearning.
“I’m learning to be patient with myself,” she said. “And while I’m overjoyed for others, I also allow myself to feel the sadness. It’s part of the process.”
Still Holding on to Hope
Asked if she believes her dream will come true, Lydia was hopeful but realistic: “I don’t know when or how, but I believe it will. Until then, I’m doing my best to stay strong.”
Her vulnerability struck a chord with fans, many of whom admire her courage to speak openly about a deeply personal and often private pain.
One thing is clear: Lydia’s journey is far from over, and her heartfelt honesty reminds us all that behind every celebration, there are quiet hopes and dreams still waiting to bloom.
