Overview

  • Snyder posted a TikTok showing an April-dated check for $8,287.67 that she received from the class-action lawsuit against Love Is Blind producers.
  • She said the payout exceeded her original promise of a $1,000-per-week stipend for two months of 12- to 20-hour filming days.
  • The lawsuit was launched by Season 2 contestant Jeremy Hartwell in July 2022 alleging underpayment and inhumane working conditions, claims that Kinetic Content has denied.
  • Production company Kinetic Content agreed to a roughly $1.4 million settlement in December 2024 to resolve claims by more than 140 former cast and crew members.
  • Snyder’s public disclosure has renewed scrutiny of reality-TV labor practices and intensified calls for clearer contestant compensation and contract transparency.
