The fifth season of Love Is Blind: Brazil () premiered on Netflix on September 10, 2025, as part of a three-week event. Camila Queiroz and Klebber Toledo returned as hosts.
As part of a twist, the season's cast consisted exclusively of participants over the age of 50. Consequently, the season was renamed Love Is Blind Brazil: Never Too Late.
This season introduced celebrities reacting to recorded episodes live from the booths, a worldwide first for the show's format. The paired celebrities, previously unacquainted, observed the contestants from behind the scenes and interacted with one another. The pairs were Luana Piovani and Rafa Chalub; Marcelo Adnet and Júlia Rabello; Camilla de Lucas and Chico Barney; and Regina Volpato and Yuri Marçal.
