‘Love Is Blind: UK’ Season 3 Cast: Their Jobs, Ages, Instagrams & More
We’ve somehow survived two whole seasons of Love Is Blind in the U.S. while waiting for the UK lot to return, but the drought is finally over. Love Is Blind: UK is back, baby!
Unlike its American counterpart, the UK series isn’t tied to one city, meaning this year’s hopeful romantics hail from all over the country (although, let’s be honest, London is still doing a lot of the heavy lifting). They’ll be stepping into the Love Is Blind pods in search of a fiancé they’ve never seen, armed with little more than charm, questionable flirting skills, and the ability to overshare with a complete stranger.
Expect awkward first conversations, toe-curling dirty talk, emotional declarations after just a few days, and at least one man insisting he’s looking for a woman who “takes care of herself.” You know exactly what he means.
We’ll be getting two weeks of episodes before the reunion lands just four days later, meaning we won’t have to wait too long to find out which couples made it down the aisle — and which relationships crashed and burned.
Ready to meet the cast of Love Is Blind: UK Season 3? Scroll on for everything you need to know about this year’s singles, who will be guided by our hosts, Matt and Emma Willis.

Chevanique T.
Age: 29
Occupation: Nurse
Social Media: @chevanique_t
Jamaican-British Chevanique describes herself as bold, spontaneous, flirty, and always up for an adventure. As a sexual health nurse, she’s truly seen and heard it all, so don’t expect her to be shy in the pods. Chevanique has also made it clear she’s ready to have her “eggs cracked” — her words, not ours. Could that mean we’re in for some delightfully NSFW Love Is Blind moments this season? We’ll just have to wait and see.
Si Buckwell
Age: 36
Occupation: Motorsport technician
Instagram: @sibucknell
The last single in his friendship group, Si knows that very specific kind of loneliness that comes from watching everyone else pair off.
After some bad luck in love, he believes growing up in a small market town with a limited dating pool hasn’t made things any easier. But underneath it all, Si says he’s a true romantic and is hoping to find a relationship as strong and lasting as the one his mom and stepdad share.
Ciara Murphy
Age: 29
Occupation: Pilates instructor
Instagram: @ciaramurphyldn
Ciara is bringing serious Elle energy to the pods. A self-confessed lover of the finer things in life, her diary is packed with brunches, girls’ trips, and dinner parties. Somehow, she still finds time to squeeze in three dates a week. As for her “expensive” taste? It’s giving Jackie from Love Is Blind: UK Season 1, and we’re already having flashbacks to the infamous ice cream debate.
Ciara also reveals she’s been cheated on in every previous relationship, something she says has left her with lingering trust issues. If she finds herself caught in a love triangle this season, expect emotions to run high.
Joseph Subuola
Age: 33
Occupation: Senior project manager
Instagram: @josephsubuola
Faith is at the heart of Joseph’s life, and he’s looking for a partner who shares his commitment to Christianity.
But there’s more to him than just his spiritual side. Joseph’s guilty pleasure is anime, and he proudly admits to “geeking out” over comics and cartoons.
When he’s not deep in the world of animation, you’ll probably find him hitting the slopes on his snowboard.
Joseph says he’s often mistaken for a player, but is that assumption completely off the mark? The pods are about to find out.
Cuba Riggs
Age: 29
Occupation: Yoga and fitness coach
Instagram: @cubariggs
The pods seem to be loving sporty girls this season! British-Guyanese Cuba has been engaged before, but the relationship came to an abrupt end when she discovered her fiancé had been cheating on her while she was visiting him in his home country of Nigeria. Their loss, honestly.
These days, Cuba spends her time hiking, scuba diving, meditating, and heading to ecstatic dance classes. As for the most transformative experience of her life? A 10-day silent retreat in India. Something tells us she won’t be fazed by the emotional intensity of the pods.
Jordan T.
Age: 29
Occupation: Teacher
Instagram: @jayyt96
Four years ago, Jordan swapped military life for the classroom, leaving the armed forces behind to pursue a career in teaching.
Family is clearly at the heart of Jordan’s world. He’s incredibly close to his mum and three sisters, and any woman he meets in the pods will need to impress the other leading ladies in his life. Well, family visits should be fun…
Faye Domaille
Age: 28
Occupation: Executive assistant
Instagram: @faye.domaille
Now this is a blonde bombshell who looks set to shake up the pods and the trip after. Faye describes herself as unfiltered, loud, and full of energy, but despite her confidence, her longest relationship was back in her teens. She also believes men tend to judge her on her looks, making Love Is Blind the perfect opportunity to see if someone can fall for her personality first.
Originally from the tiny island of Guernsey but now living in London, Faye is hoping to find someone who’s more than just a partner; she wants her biggest cheerleader.
Blue Braithwaite
Age: 32
Occupation: Plasterer
Instagram: @blue.braithwaite
Blue was brought up around wealth and admits he put an unhealthy amount of pressure on himself to become a millionaire. (Hello?!) But before you get too excited, Blue has since realized that love and genuine connection mean far more than a number in his bank account.
And yes, Blue really is his name. His siblings are called Beau and Buck, so at least there won’t be any confusion when the family WhatsApp lights up.
Lydia James
Age: 31
Occupation: Senior product manager
Instagram: @lydiaejames
Dating options in South Wales are feeling a little limited for Lydia, so she’s hoping Love Is Blind: UK can change her luck.
She’s been single for a year after splitting from her rugby player ex-boyfriend — oof. And yes, it seems she has a thing for sporty men.
Ryan Roberts
Age: 33
Occupation: Public speaker
Instagram: @ryanlewisroberts
Ryan thinks the reason he’s still single comes down to his work and the amount of traveling it involves. For context, he’s an international public speaker who hosts his own events across Europe, often focusing on topics around men.
But is his career really the reason love has been hard to find? The pods might help us figure that out.
And if you’re wondering whether Ryan has seen Love Is Blind before signing up… nope. He doesn’t own a television and claims he hasn’t watched any TV in 15 years. Talk about going in completely blind.
Yasmin T.
Age: 32
Occupation: Physician associate
Instagram: @yasmeenstagram_
Yasmin feels she missed out on some of those early relationship experiences due to her religious upbringing. With a Ghanaian father and Egyptian-Lebanese mother who didn’t approve of boys being around, she has never had an “official boyfriend” — something she’s hoping to change in the pods.
She was diagnosed with the skin condition vitiligo at eight years old and has since learned to embrace her beauty rather than hide it. Yasmin credits beauty contests with helping her build confidence.
George Morgan
Age: 32
Occupation: Bank relationship manager/ wine bar owner
Instagram: @georgemorgan_1303
Now here’s a man who knows the meaning of long-term commitment. George was with his last partner for 10 years, and they were even set to get married, but he ultimately trusted his gut and knew they weren’t the right match.
Since the breakup, he hasn’t dipped back into the dating world, instead choosing to focus on his career. And that career comes with a pretty unique family legacy — George comes from a long line of cheese business owners and has earned himself the nickname “Mini Cheddar.”
Well, at least it isn’t “Sparkle Megan.”
Hannah Connolly
Age: 27
Occupation: Chartered accountant
Instagram: @hannahlouissee
This black cat isn’t looking for a golden retriever; she’s after a Doberman. And if you’re hoping to win over Hannah, there’s one person whose approval matters: her dad.
A self-proclaimed daddy’s girl, Hannah reveals that her father even helped her navigate her Hinge matches. After years of being career-focused, she’s ready to swap a “vanilla” life for something with a little more excitement. She’s looking for someone who can bring out her playful side and shake things up.
Her dream man? Freddie from Love Is Blind: UK Season 1. So if things don’t work out in the pods, maybe there’s still hope for a Perfect Match comeback…
Met Emir
Age: 35
Occupation: Technology recruitment
Instagram: @metemir
Met is your traditional Cypriot family man, hoping to find the kind of love his parents have built over their 40-year marriage.
His parents taught him the importance of hard work, and he’s taken that lesson seriously, perhaps a little too seriously, as he’s spent years prioritizing his career over relationships. But now, he’s ready to shift his focus and find someone to share life with.
A confessed yapper, Met is heading into the pods with one major advantage: He’ll always manage to fill a silence.
Francesca Emmanuel
Age: 29
Occupation: HR associate
Instagram: @francescaemmanuel_
Francesca is officially over dating apps, so what’s a girl to do? Enter the pods, of course.
She admits she tends to fall hard and fast, with a dating history so colorful that she apparently has a nickname for every ex. After once walking in on a partner cheating (boo!), Francesca is hoping to find someone with the same qualities as her dad — a pretty high bar to set.
She’s also ready to break away from her usual type, and Love Is Blind might just be the perfect place to do it.
Jack Bradshaw
Age: 20
Occupation: Chef
Instagram: @jackbradshaw
A man who can cook up a feast in the kitchen and the bedroom? Sign us up.
This chef was born and raised in a small Cornish town, where he spends his time fishing, surfing, and running along the coast. Basically, he’s bringing peak outdoorsy husband energy to the pods.
His last relationship came to an end when his partner moved away, but after two years of being single, he’s ready to find a wifey and settle down.
Sammy Harper
Age: 33
Occupation: Wellness coach and entrepreneur
Instagram: @sammy.harper
There’s always one looking for an “alpha male” — and they often end up surprised by just how much personality comes with that package. We’re hoping that won’t be the case for Sammy.
After a major heartbreak four years ago, she moved from London to Manchester. These days, this ambitious girlie runs an online coaching business for women and spends her downtime working out.
The question is: Can Sammy find someone who can keep up with her pace?
Ajay Cheema
Age: 33
Occupation: Fitness coach
Instagram: @ajaycheema
There’s always one pro baller in a Netflix cast, and this time it’s Ajay. A former basketball player who has competed in both the U.S. and UK, he’s bringing confidence, charm, and plenty of main character energy to the pods.
After being single for two years, Ajay is finally ready to settle down. Until six months ago, he was a high-flying finance bro, but he decided to step away from the rat race and focus on his passions: fitness, travel, and living life outside the spreadsheets.
No longer a finance bro, it seems.
Komel Waqar
Age: 34
Occupation: Senior finance officer
Instagram: @komelwaqar
After 18 months of being single, Komel is ready to change her relationship status. A true romantic who wears her heart on her sleeve, she’s heading into the pods hoping to find someone who matches her energy.
One thing’s for sure: You might want to turn on those subtitles for this Glaswegian accent.
Mike Mitchell
Age: 31
Occupation: Teaching assistant
Instagram: @mikejamesmitchell
Mike joined the military at 18, a career that made relationships challenging, thanks to long periods away and an unpredictable lifestyle. Despite that, he’s had three serious relationships, each lasting around three years.
Now out of the military and working in the classroom, Michael is ready to find the one and build something more settled.
There is one thing his future partner should know: She’ll need to love the outdoors. Hiking and camping are non-negotiable, so pack your walking boots if you’re hoping to win him over.
Sophie Tregaskiss
Age: 27
Occupation: Operations team leader
Instagram: @sophietregaskiss
Sophie’s last date was at 18, and she’s now been single for seven months, which is officially the longest she’s ever spent flying solo. Honestly, she’d probably have a heart attack if she heard about how long we’ve been in a dry spell.
This homebody would choose a cozy coffee date over a wild night out and is looking for someone who sees beyond her looks rather than treating her like a trophy. Sophie says being “ridiculously attractive” has often led people to assume she’ll be a “b*tch” before they even get to know her. Regina George really has a lot to answer for.
Alex Begyinah
Age: 33
Occupation: Business development manager
Instagram: @alexbegyinah
With Ghanaian and Sri Lankan heritage, Alex describes his upbringing as a true melting pot of cultures, languages, and (most importantly) food.
After two years of being single, Alex is officially done with dating apps — hard relate — and is taking one final shot at finding love in the pods. Ladies, be warned: He has an MSc in psychology and isn’t afraid to put those skills to use.
Having watched his parents’ marriage come to an end, Alex is determined to build something lasting and prove that his own love story can have a different ending.
Zelania
Age: 29
Occupation: Marketing manager
Instagram: @zelaniaaaa
Born in Jamaica, Zelania moved to the UK at five years old to live with her aunt. A year and a half ago, her last relationship came to an end when her partner packed his bags and moved all the way to Australia.
Now, Zelania is ready for a fresh start. She hopes to make her mother proud by finding a partner to settle down with and admits she’s already spent too much time chasing men who weren’t worthy of her love. The pods could be the place where she finally finds someone who chooses her.
Luke Watson
Age: 29
Occupation: Planning officer
Instagram: @lukeawats
Luke is the guy you want on your pub quiz team — especially if there’s a Star Wars round. A self-professed fanatic, he’s bringing both his encyclopedic knowledge and his single status into the pods.
Luke has been single throughout his entire adult life and admits he may have been a little “too picky” in the past. Now, with some family pressure to find a wife, he’s ready to stop waiting for the perfect moment.
He’s also conscious of not leaving things too late, admitting he worries about becoming an older dad if he doesn’t find his person soon.
Neive Ewing
Age: 27
Occupation: Car salesperson
Instagram: @neivexo
The dating pool in her small town of Perth isn’t quite cutting it, so Neive is ready to bet it all on the pods.
Her last relationship ended three years ago after she felt her ex wasn’t making her a priority. And when it comes to #couplegoals, she’s doing things a little differently. Instead of looking to her parents, it’s her grandparents who set the standard for lasting love.
Direct, quick-witted, and clearly not afraid to say what she thinks, we’re expecting plenty of memorable one-liners from Neive.
Jacob Golding
Age: 32
Occupation: Business owner
Instagram: @acegolding
Jacob grew up between London and the Caribbean with his mom and older brothers, giving him a childhood shaped by two very different cultures.
Now, he admits he has a habit of wondering if the grass is greener on the other side — uh oh. His last relationship lasted seven years before coming to an end, and we can’t help but wonder if that restless streak played a part.
These days, Jacob is a successful entrepreneur running multiple businesses, while his downtime is spent boxing, surfing, and riding motocross.
Monum Sabir
Age: 29
Occupation: Audiologist
Instagram: @monumsabirr
A year ago, Monum walked away from a relationship after discovering her ex had been cheating. Now, she’s ready to put the past behind her and give love another shot.
Guided by the law of attraction, Monum is heading into the pods with ambition and an open heart, hoping to manifest her perfect match. Her hobbies? Crochet and thrifting — two activities that require the same patience, dedication, and eye for detail as modern dating.
Taylor Burgen
Age: 31
Occupation: Head of sales
Instagram: @taylorburgen93
Three years ago, Taylor’s seven-year relationship came to an end, and he’s been searching for his next chapter ever since.
He thinks his looks and confidence often lead people to assume he’s a ladies’ man, but Taylor insists there’s more than meets the eye. Behind the charm, he claims to be a hopeless romantic and a total softie.
Now he’s hoping to ditch the dating apps and find something real in the pods.
Katie Linsky
Age: 30
Occupation: Project manager
Instagram: @katiejlinsky
She’s a mommy! Mamacita!
Single mom Katie has a seven-year-old son whom she coparents with her ex-husband, and motherhood has naturally meant dating often took a backseat. But now, this social butterfly is ready to put herself first and step into the pods in search of her own second-chance romance.
Jonathan Harrold
Age: 32
Occupation: Tech recruiter
Instagram: @jonharrold
Jonathan thinks the reason he’s still single is that he falls for people too quickly — and soon enough, we’ll find out whether that self-awareness is spot on or a recipe for drama in the pods.
A true family man, Jonathan proudly admits he’s a bit of a “mummy’s boy” — eek. He’s the youngest of five children in an unconventional family setup, with one biological sister, a half-sister, and two cousins who were raised alongside him as siblings.
