Is Chock Chapple An Older Leo Braudy From ‘Love Is Blind’?
As some Love Is Blind fans know, Leo Braudy was contending for the love of multiple women. While he was confident and rich, some people saw early red flags that made their skin crawl watching him cozy up to Brittany Wisniewsk. While Chock Chapple only has his eyes on one special lady, fans are noticing some correlations between the two guys. Is Chock just an older version of Leo?
Chock Chapple Is Getting Cozy With Joan
Although many believe Chock Chapple is the front-runner for Joan Vassos’s journey on The Golden Bachelorette, some people think the red flags are flying. Furthermore, as Chock is seemingly showing his true colors, fans are starting to get a little creeped out. Sadly, Chock lost his mother during the filming of the show. While many fans liked him in the early episodes and even compassionately felt for him in his loss, now the tides are turning. Joan is overjoyed that Chock made his way back to the mansion. But Chock has his target in sight. He is not interested in sharing Joan and he wants it to be very clear to Joan that he intends to marry her. After starting to see some trending traits, fans think he may be as greasy as Leo Braudy.
Leo Braudy Gets Himself In A Pickle
Undeniably, Leo Braudy took a bit of a beating for being a villain in Love Is Blind Season 7. While he emerged as a confident business owner and art dealer, his confidence soon bled into arrogance. In the beginning, he flaunted his riches but also lost several important people in his life to get them. Both Hannah Jiles and Brittney Wisniewski were getting more serious with him, but he ended up stringing them both along trying to figure out who his best fit was. But if you snooze, you lose.
When Hannah pulled the trigger and said she was in love with someone else, the stress made Leo snap. His fear reared its ugly head and he said very off-putting things to Hannah pressing for her to marry him. Later, he relaxed and realized it was foolish and begged Brittney to give him the chance to be her husband. When Brittany finally meets him in person, he slides in very close to smooth things over. But fans already had the ick.
Is Chock Chapple An Older Leo Braudy?
Undoubtedly, reality TV dating gets messy. On Reddit, one fan points out that Chock Chapple reminds them a lot of Leo Braudy from Love Is Blind Season 7.
- First, they say, “Is Chock the 60-something version of Leo from Love is Blind s7 or nah???” Then, they add, “Bro I just hate chock 😭😭😭 anyone else?? He just gives off this very cocky, overly domineering and controlling energy. I hate the way he keeps reiterating that he sees it and wants it with joan. It seems like hes into manipulation, like he’d have a bad temper, and like he is going to have unreasonably high expectations of her. I dont like him at all. 😩 pretty sure she’ll pick him too 😭.”
Fans Weigh In About Chock Chapple Being The Golden Bachelorette‘s Leo
After the initial post was made, several Golden Bachelorette fans agreed that Chock Chapple is giving them the creeps now.
- “In the beginning no bad vibes. He seemed like he liked her but was a little awkward. Now major bad vibes like he can go from nice guy to bad guy in a snap. Not really feeling like he is who he is trying to cover up his true self.”
- “He’s given me creepy vibes since night one. He does seem controlling and that he has bought into the Christian Patriarch mentality in which he is the only voice and decision maker. He needs therapy, not a new wife.”
- “He gives me creepy vibes. He’s way too serious and if I were Joan, I would want more of a fun partner. Don’t like him.”
- “I have had the same vibes that he seemed almost kinda possessive. It would be great to be wrong.”
Other Fans Disagree
However, some people think that Chock Chapple is conservative and a straight shooter. He isn’t there to waste time and his emotions are even higher after losing his mother. He feels he may lose Joan Vassos if he doesn’t pursue her aggressively. While some are cringing, others think that Chock is a great guy that is gentle and sweet, but a little awkward and hyperfocused.
- “This thread makes me sad because I love Chock lol he’s been my favorite for Joan since day 1.”
- “It makes me sad to see all of the comments calling him creepy. He’s definitely too cocky at this stage but tbh he should be. Him and Joan are A LOT further along than the other couples. Should he have put her arm around her that much on the group date? Probably not. Not an appropriate time. BUT I don’t think he’s creepy.”
- “Chock had a certain intensity to him before his mom died, and I think his grief has intensified all his emotions–which makes sense psychologically, but I also find his way of being assertive off-putting. He’s like a tight shirt.”
- “I think he came off that way during their conversation when he returned to the mansion. He doesn’t seem that way all the time so I am not sure. It is hard to say when we only see parts of conversations.”
Chock Chapple Is Focused But Not “Leo”
Other people think that Chock Chapple is making some questionable choices, but not in the same league as Leo Braudy. Seemingly, Chock knows every moment counts. He said he struggles with opening up but was going to work hard to show her he was there for the right reason.
- “I liked him a lot and still do but he HAS gotten like very confident and it’s a little off-putting. I don’t think he’s anything like Leo though.”
- “I feel like people are being pretty harsh on Chock here TBH. He was slightly possessive on the bowling date but has otherwise been pretty friendly and has shown zero signs of having a temper to me. Leo on the other hand has behaved terribly his entire time on LIB. No comparison to me.”
- “I agree. He’s also an older guy from the Midwest, so he’s got a lot of traditional masculinity ingrained in him. He wouldn’t be my pick if I were Joan but I don’t think he’s a bad guy and comparing him to Leo feels crazy to me.”
