Love is blind It’s no longer just a reality show, it’s a franchise with versions all over the world. Of the eight countries and regions that have their own versions of the reality dating series, the UK is the latest. The first four episodes will premiere on Netflix on August 7, 2024Fans were immediately drawn to the new cast. Love is Blind: UK.

The show follows the exact same format as the original American version, where singles date in groups without being able to see each other. Some choose to propose, meet in person, and embark on a two-week whirlwind courtship before heading down the aisle (or not) and saying “I do” (or not). The cast includes a whole host of notable characters just like the American version. Indeed. Love is Blind: UKTwo actors stand out for very different reasons, one the worst and the other the most likable.

One of the cast members has angered fans.

Sam focuses a lot on physical appearance.

Fans are totally upset with Sam. on Love is Blind: UKThe man who declares himself “just a big kid” is a 31-year-old product design manager. He comes across as spoiled, arrogant and narcissistic. He’s so focused on his physical appearance that, in fact, he got a nose job and started working out at the gym before filming, according to the Daily Mail . He made the choice to help deal with his personal insecurities, and taking steps to improve your physical health is a good thing, of course. But It raises red flags about how much attention he pays to physical appearance..

Not to mention, starting to hit the gym right before the show has fans wondering if he has other intentions. It’s unlikely he’ll see a major transformation in his body in such a short time, so fans are speculating that he’s only starting this new activity so he can answer “yes” to the inevitable “Do you go to the gym?” question that always comes up in the pods. For a show that's about emotionally connecting with someone, this seems counterintuitive..

Even if these things could be overcome, red flags still flew with Sam. He kept telling the women in the rooms how the ladies would see him in person from across the room and assume he was an idiot, which meant he was conventionally handsome.When Yasmine, a mental health nurse, asked him directly if he was just telling her what she wanted to hear during their conversations, he became furious at his criticism and turned his speech into a “poor me” speech about how “good guys” never win.

Everyone can say he's there for the wrong reasons.

Sam continued to have discussions with the women about how he wanted to choose someone who would “give.” [him] The “love and affection” he needs, and to be a “big rock in [his] life.” However, he rarely, if ever, discussed what happened. he Plan to bring him into a relationshipSam was so focused on finding the perfect woman for him that he wasn't interested in trying to be the perfect woman for her. After Justine ended her relationship with Sam, “Beggars can't choose,” he said in his confession. That means he will now turn his attention back to Nicole, the brand's 29-year-old head of marketing from Surrey, England.

Everything Sam said to the women in the room seemed insincere, and this was reinforced by Binaiah’s desire to tell Nicole what he thought of Sam in order to protect her. After hearing the inappropriate comments, Binaiah felt it necessary to tell Nicole that he did not think Sam was there for the right reasons. It was the comment that arguably prompted Binaiah to alert Nicole when Sam returned to the men’s room and remembered a conversation he had just had with Nicole.

He told her he couldn’t wait to hug and hold her once he saw her in person. “What if you can’t do it?” Nicole joked, wanting to make sure he wasn’t just looking for a certain look. They returned to their suite after the exchange, Sam seemed upset about the conversation and asked his fellow actors for reassurance that Nicole wasn't talking about her weight.“It's okay if someone is a bit like…,” he paused, indicating concern that Nicole might be older than he'd like.

Storm after Sam's show

After their suggestion, Sam also said to Nicole, “I think I love you,” which is an odd statement for someone who just proposed to someone, and one that Nicole clearly picked up on.He continued to put his foot in his mouth when he said in his confessional in his diary room after meeting Nicole in person: “I don't care what anyone else thinks, Nicole is beautiful.” What he means is that she's not pretty (breaking news: she is) but he's going to love her sweetly anyway. How sweet..

After telling Nicole over and over again to trust him, it was clear on Nicole's face that she realized she had made a mistake.It’s no surprise that these two never even made it to the honeymoon stage in Greece. Instead, they both claim to have realized that something was wrong. Just like Zac did in the American version when he realized he should have chosen Bliss instead, Nicole reached out to Benaya to meet her in person, plead her case, and hope that he would forgive her.

Based on Sam's behavior, fans began comparing him to the worst cast members from Love is blind in the United StatesHis constant focus on weight and physical appearance has caused fans to compare him to Shake Chatterjee from the second season of Love is blind in the United States He would ask pointed questions to the women in the pods, like if they were at a concert together, could he pick them up and put them on his shoulders. After choosing Deepti, Chick proceeded to tell anyone who would listen that he wasn't physically attracted to her and doubled down on his views during that season's explosive reunion special.

It's unclear if this will be Sam's last appearance on the show. But if it is, no one will be sorry to see him go. He embodies everything the show is about. not so on.

Freddy is the opposite of Sam.

In contrast, Freddie immediately struck a chord with viewers. He has been described as the most genuine and engaging cast member since Cameron Hamilton from the inaugural season of Love is blind The 32-year-old American from Bolton, England has surprised fans by revealing that he is still single and looking for love.

It's not just his traditional good looks, his light eyes, and his muscular body, although these physical attributes don't hurt, they wouldn't matter without the fact that Freddie seems to have a real heart.He works as a funeral director, and claims that the profession has historically been intimidating to women. He adds that he loves his job, and sees what he does as caring for a beloved family member. (Boos.)

Moreover, he has an older brother with Down Syndrome, whom he is very close to. Freddie frequently posts pictures of them together on his Instagram account. This increases the love fans have for the cast member, as they feel that Freddie's relationship with his brother speaks volumes about his true character..

Freddie connects with 29-year-old dental nurse Catherine Richards in the pods, though fans were concerned that they might have some connection to each other. She is adopted and they realize that their grandparents have the same first names. The pair also share similar interests, including spending time at the gym and feeling a strong connection to their family. Through every conversation, Freddie comes across as someone who genuinely wants to find the perfect person, a refreshing departure from later American seasons that seemed to have mostly attracted people for the fame.

Calm after Freddie's proposal

Freddie made his decision to propose to Katherine in the third episode of the season, and after a lot of tears, she accepted. They were physically attracted to each other when they met, and Katherine couldn't contain her excitement over his personal charm and baby-faced good looks. While vacationing in Greece, Freddie appeared in a scene with his shirt off and his underwear on, which stunned viewers and Katherine. Katherine admitted that the two consummated their engagement (twice) and continue to be ecstatic about each other.

Fans were waiting for something else to happen, unsure how Freddie could be so perfect and still not find the one. However, it may have come down to exactly what Freddie implied: his job made women feel weird and was a barrier to him finding true love. If that was the case, and even his good looks didn’t help women look past his sick job, he was the perfect candidate for… Love is blind an experience, Able to demonstrate his emotional depth and personal character beyond his physical appearance.And with someone who knew his profession from the beginning and wasn't bothered by it.

Freddie is the complete opposite of Sam, and fans are hoping he and Katherine make it to the end. As for Sam, even though his time on the show is over unless he is brought back for dramatic purposes, fans are hoping that Nicole will have her moment with Zach and Bliss and that she and Benaya can make it.
