Hannah Jiles is clearing up some of those post-Love Is Blind rumors.
Hannah cheekily addressed her off-screen transformation a week after Netflix began airing season seven of the reality dating series, which filmed about a year ago. “Take a look around. Do you see her anywhere?” she lip-synced next to her season 7 headshot. “News flash, you’re not gonna.” She captioned the post, “Same girl, just a healthier mindset.”
This post sparked a wave of questions and speculations about her weight loss, with many fans suspecting Hannah was on some form of GLP-1 medication, namely Ozempic. While the reality star isn’t denouncing weight loss drugs, she says she was unable to take the injections without getting sick.
“Everyone’s saying I am on Ozempic. I did try Ozempic. Back in the spring, I tried it for two weeks, I think. And unfortunately, I think it’s an amazing thing, but it made me so sick I couldn’t take it,” Jiles told People in an interview that was published on October 17. “Trust me, I would take it if I could. But it was just all me.”
Hannah Jiles says the weight-related insecurities she discussed in the pods led her to changing her lifestyle. “If weight is something that I’m super insecure about, then I need to change that. And so I just work towards it,” she says. “It’s wild that everyone just thinks I’m just a liar and stuff. I just really tried hard.”
Of course, that doesn’t mean she didn’t embrace another kind of injection. “Since [the show], I’ve gotten Botox, I’ve gotten lip injections, got hair extensions, I’ve done things like that,” she told People. “But I haven’t changed who I am or have done anything. I had a goal and I was going to get there.”
