‘I did reach out to her, and I was like, “I’m so sorry I did this to you,”‘ the flight attendant told Entertainment Tonight. ‘I’m just waiting for Megan to respond.’

Another famous Fox did reach out to the party planner.

‘Don’t worry sis. I see it,’ wrote Julia Fox, 34, in response to a comedic TikTok video in which Chelsea asked the people who had told her she looked like Megan to come forward.

When she was asked about the comment from Julia, the beleaguered contestant told the outlet, ‘I had a heart attack.’

She received some more consolation from jewelry designer Katie Rae, who sent her a gift box.

‘We see it and we think you’re a total fox!!!’ read the card that arrived with the bundle of baubles.

Chelsea also shared a photo of the the pear shaped solitaire diamond engagement ring she received from the Bridal Rings Company.

The so-called scandal has been good for viewership.  Chelsea shared a graphic in her Instagram Stories revealing ‘Love is Blind Season 6 sees its biggest first week in streaming in franchise history.’

The brouhaha began when Chelsea and her now fiancé  Jimmy Presnell were still in the pods on the Netflix dating show where lonely singles get engaged to people they’ve never seen before.

Chelsea, had previously boasted about her resemblance to Megan Fox, claiming that people have told her that she looks just like the actress and 𝑠e𝑥 symbol.

However, after meeting face-to-face, Jimmy, disagreed, telling producers that he felt the North Carolina native had ‘lied’ to him about her looks.

The scandal seems to have been good for viewership, which is up according to a graphic Chelsea shared in her Instagram Stories

‘She definitely lied to me on some, uh, on how she looked,’ he chuckled. ‘Chelsea told me she looked like Megan Fox.’

Despite his initial surprise, the software salesman admitted that he still found his future wife beautiful and had no problem with her appearance.

‘At the end of the day it doesn’t really matter,’ he said. ‘I’m very attracted to her – I can work with that.’

He also complimented her in person, gushing that she was ‘gorgeous’ when they first met.

Love Is Blind star Jimmy Presnell was shocked to discover that his fiancée Chelsea Blackwell doesn’t resemble Megan Fox – despite her claiming that she does

‘She definitely lied to me on how she looked,’ he told producers after meeting the flight attendant for the first time

During their time in the pods – where contestants date through a wall without seeing one another – Chelsea said that passengers on her flights often compared her to the Expen4bles stunner.

Once she said that, Jimmy drastically perked up and looked excited at the prospect of marrying a Megan Fox lookalike.

Chelsea followed up the comparison by noting that she didn’t necessarily agree that she looks like the actress.

She did, however, acknowledge that what the two have in common is dark hair and blue eyes.

‘At the end of the day it doesn’t really matter. I’m very attracted to her – I can work with that,’ Jimmy said

The reality star attempted to manage Jimmy’s expectations before she muttered: ‘It’s uh, I don’t even know if it’s MGK’s wife or his girlfriend.’

Jimmy then asked: ‘Megan Fox? You’re saying you look like Megan Fox?’

He smiled and then asked Chelsea: ‘I mean… can we get married?’

Although Chelsea had said herself that she didn’t think she looked like the Jennifer’s Body actress and was only going off of what others had told her, it didn’t stop her from being trolled by viewers of the hit dating series.

One viewer joked, ‘Chelsea is Megan Fox from Temu,’ in reference to the online Chinese retailer known for trendy looks at low prices.

Another posted a string of crying laughing emoji and asked: ‘Megan Fox. Who lied to her?’

Chelsea’s fiancé Jimmy Presnell defended his intended.  Chelsea is an amazing person and loves so hard. Due to time, a lot of the full story this far wasn’t shown… It’s easy to make assumptions off of snippets of our relationship, but I wanted y’all to be easy on my girl’

They added: ‘And he only picked her cause she said that.’

Jimmy came to his intended’s defense in a social media post Thursday writing, ‘On a real note, Chelsea is an amazing person and loves so hard. Due to time, a lot of the full story this far wasn’t shown,’ he explained.

‘There are reasons we are both fighting for each other and sticking to our promise. It’s easy to make assumptions off of snippets of our relationship, but I wanted y’all to be easy on my girl. At the end of the day, we are all human, and it took a lot of courage for every one of us to put ourselves out there to find our person.’

‘My lil heart ❤ forever grateful,’ Chelsea wrote in reply.
