Two Love Is Blind UK cast members QUIT the show just hours after getting engaged

This season is already giving so much


When we found out Love Is Blind was heading to the UK for a new season, we knew that there was going to be drama. But honestly, this much? I could only dream. If you don’t want spoilers look away now, but if you want to soak in the chaos that is Love Is Blind UK, just hours after getting engaged cast members Sam and Nicole quit the show.

If you’re not fully caught up with the first set of episodes that have dropped on Netflix, after being rejected on his other dates, Sam had been getting to know Nicole in the pods, and their romance was blossoming.

Sam later proposed, but then the ring was put on Nicole’s right hand – which really hasn’t done well for the “walking ick” accusations people have been throwing at him on Twitter. Anyway, after the engagements the couples head off to a gorgeous retreat, but it was revealed Nicole and Sam had broken off their relationship, and decided not to go.

Nicole said: “Sam and I are meant to be on the retreat but something didn’t quite feel right.” She went on to explain that him putting the ring on the wrong finger felt like a “sign” it was never going to work out.

She explained: “When I took the ring, I placed it on the wrong finger, on the right finger. He didn’t notice. Now I look back in hindsight that was a sign that it just wasn’t right.” Sam said: “The doors closed and it was bizarre. I started to realise that something was off, something wasn’t right.”

Whilst it looks like it’s game over for Sam and he’s left the experiment for good, it’s left open that Nicole might come back and explore something with previous connection, Benaiah.

If this is the drama we’re getting from the first episodes, what do we have still to come?! I need more!
