Which ‘Love Is Blind: UK’ couples are still together now?
Another season of "Love Is Blind," another batch of couples. "Love Is Blind UK" may be set across the pond, but the format of the show is the same.
Of all the "Love Is Blind UK" cast, which participants ended up with a ring on their finger — and who ended the finale with the ring still on?
The reunion, out Aug. 26, gave us an update on which couples are still together now. Here's everything we know about the couples on "Love Is Blind: UK."
Steven and Sabrina
Are they still together? Broken up, as of the reunion
It didn't take long for Steven, a 37-year-old gym owner, and Sabrina, a 35-year-old director of marketing and communications, to make their relationship official and get engaged.
In the pods, they had a heart-to-heart over children. Sabrina said she'd be OK if she didn't have children, and wasn't sure if she'd be able to carry a child by the time they were ready. Meanwhile, Steven said he'd always dreamed of becoming a father.
They finally agreed that children would be a blessing, but said there are multiple ways to have them, including surrogacy and adoption.
After getting engaged in the pods, the couple met in person for the first time and sparks flew. Sabrina described it as the "best moment of (her) life" and Steven called Sabrina "more than (he) could've dreamed of." The couple went on to enjoy a romantic getaway in Greece.
After a fairly seamless time after Corfu, the two got married.
“We’re jumping two feet in but I think we’re ready for the next chapter,” Sabrina said after the wedding, adding that she was “overwhelmed with love and happiness and gratitude.”
What happened next? At the reunion, the couple revealed they split up four months after marrying.
Sabrina said the "support wasn't there" from Steven when their relationship became long distance, which was "not the plan."
"The communication was awful. There was no consistency in Steven's behavior towards me," she said.
She said when she traveled, she didn’t make any adjustments for him. “I was trying to do everything I could to make the relationship work. I feel like you made zero accommodations for me,” she said.
Steven thought the end of the relationship came down to the long distance and the pressure that came from both quitting their jobs.
The couple went back and forth about Christmas celebrations. Steven canceled a planned trip to Belfast days before he was expected to come. Steven, at the reunion, blamed mismanaged finances.
"You're a man of many words but you're not a man of your word," Sabrina said.

Freddie and Catherine
Relationship status: Broken up, as of the reunion
Catherine, a 29-year-old dental nurse, formed two strong connections in the dating pods. Despite her chemistry with Ollie, a 33-year-old who works in software sales, Catherine decided to pursue her bond with Freddie, a 32-year-old funeral director.
After getting engaged, the couple flew to Greece for a romantic getaway and their physical connection heated up quickly.
As the newly engaged couple prepared to meet up with their cast mates, Catherine told Freddie she was "a bit nervous" to meet Ollie face to face. In a confessional interview, she explained why.
"We never really got closure. He didn't know I was going to call it off. So I think for him it was a bit of a shock. I do feel a little bit unsettled going in there and seeing him. But I know if I've got Freddie by my side, I'm gonna be OK," she said.
In Greece, Catherine learned that Freddie had been unfaithful in a past relationship, which was triggering since she had been cheated on in the past.
The couple continued to face hurdles after the pods, which indicated where the weddings were headed. Catherine was upset that Freddie wanted a pre-nup. Freddie' sister, before the wedding, expressed concern they were on "different pages."
At the wedding, while Catherine said "I do," Freddie chose not to marry Catherine.
The former couple confirmed they broke up after the wedding.
"We did live a different life," Catherine said. "But gosh, I've never laughed so much."
Freddie said he noticed Cat would "snap" at him sometimes, and he felt he couldn't be himself.

Bobby and Jasmine
Relationship status: Still married
Jasmine, a 29-year-old nurse, sought to create a "safe space" for Bobby, a 33-year-old luxury shopping guide, from the get go. She was a bit intrigued by Sam, a 31-year-old product design manager, but soon realized he wasn't right for her.
After breaking things off with Sam, Jasmine was free to fully explore her growing connection with Bobby, who soon proposed by writing a romantic poem for her.
When the couple met in person, Jasmine said her new fiancé looked "like home." During their romantic getaway, the couple's physical and emotional connections deepened.
Their biggest obstacle came in the form of Jasmine's disapproving mother, who was uncomfortable with the experiment and questioned whether Bobby was educated enough for her daughter.
Jasmine ultimately overrode her mother's doubts and married Bobby. “I respect my mom. I respect her opinion. As much as I love her, ultimately it’s my decision to make and I’m really happy,” the bride said after the wedding.
At the reunion, they revealed they are still married — and Bobby said it's been the "best year" of his life.
Bobby moved to London and they're now living in their "dream home."
"I feel like we're best friends," Jasmine said.
The couple is trying to grow their family.

Ollie and Demi
Relationship status: Broken up, as of the reunion
Demi, a 30-year-old safeguarding and attendance manager, fell hard for Ollie, a 33-year-old who works in software sales.
Since Ollie also had a connection with Catherine, Demi was nervous but she gave it her all and it paid off. For instance, Ollie was touched when Demi made him a card and helped him celebrate his birthday through the dating pods.
As their connection grew, Ollie proposed to Demi and they met in person for the first time. Demi expressed concern that he might not be physically attracted to her. The newly engaged couple hit a road block after Ollie spoke to Catherine, and it brought out Demi's insecurities. Still, they left Corfu eager to start their lives together in the "real world."
Demi introduced Ollie to her family. As she grew more comfortable in the relationship, she also came to love herself more, she said repeatedly. That played into her decision at the altar.
Going into the wedding, Demi said she and Ollie hadn't spoken often, and the distance was making her anxious.
“The lack of contact in the time apart made me very anxious and leaving the experiment for that period of time. I really had time to reflect, I wanted to let him process as well, but it was hard for me” Demi said. “My head and my heart are not aligned.”
She chose not to get married, but kept the door open to growing their relationship.
“You are a beautiful person inside and out. I’ve watched you adapt and grow, and that has made me appreciate and love you more. I want to continue to see you shine. You deserve nothing less than happiness,” Demi said.
When asked why she was turning him down, she replied, “Because I’ve learned to love myself in a whole different light during this journey. I know what I want from a husband, and I don’t think we’re quite there, obviously. But it’s not, ‘I do not. I’m gonna walk away from you forever.’ It’s an ‘I do not, for now.’ Because honestly, the time we’ve spent, I feel like you’ve seen me, and I love you for that.”
Ollie felt hopeful for the future. “It’s sad, and I’m emotional, and it has been one hell of a journey, but I found true love with someone, so I’m happy. This is not the end of Demi and Ollie, not by a long shot," he said.
At the reunion, Demi shared that after the wedding, she felt their relationship was over. "Ollie's a good guy, but she's not my guy," she said.
She moved back in with her parents with the intention to "find herself." After the show, she felt like she was a "shell of (herself)," and she has worked to become "Demi 2.0." Her parents cheered in the audience.
Ollie reflected on the wedding day, too, and said the results weren't a surprise. "We had conversations that made us both feel like it wasn't our time," he said. "It was the right thing to us."
Demi confirmed she was at peace with what happened, but it was still "hard to watch."

Ollie and Sharlotte
Ollie revealed, at the reunion that he is dating Sharlotte from the pods. Sharlotte is a 35-year-old global communications director.
Sharlotte, from their audience, spoke about their relationship. "I've got a lot of gratitude and it remains gratitude. But we're in a good spot," she said, cameras on her.
Ollie called her a "beautiful person" and, while not defining the relationship, said to "watch this space."
Tom and Maria
Relationship status: Broken up, as of the reunion
Tom, a 38-year-old PR and advertising consultant, formed connections with Natasha, a 32-year-old careers coordinator, and Maria, a 30-year-old makeup artist.
Eventually, his bond with Maria grew stronger and he broke things off with Natasha. After getting engaged, Tom said he believed Maria would change his life. An emotional Maria reflected on how her late father would've felt about her engagement, saying he "would've really liked Tom."
When the couple met in person, they shared an endearing moment — Maria got her red lipstick all over Tom. In a confessional interview, Maria said their first meeting was "so comfortable" and Tom said it was "amazing."
In Greece, the couple had plenty of witty banter and fun while getting to know each other more, with Tom saying they have a lot of "sexual tension."
Once back in the U.K., though, Tom and Maria grappled with cultural differences. Tom was put off that Maria felt he, as a man, should be a provider. Ultimately, that's what caused him to say no to Maria at the altar, following her yes.
Tom took to TikTok on Aug. 24 after the finale aired and said the decision was mutual.
“Leading up to the wedding day, it was pretty clear that Maria and I had some pretty big cultural differences, and ultimately we both felt that it was going to be a ‘no’ at the altar,” he said.
At the reunion, they confirmed they formally parted ways due to cultural differences.

Sam and Nicole
Relationship status: Not together
Nicole, a 29-year-old head of brand and marketing, found herself in a love triangle with Sam, a 31-year-old product design manager, and Benaiah, a 33-year-old structural landscaper. Since her last marriage ended in divorce, Nicole was extra cautious about selecting the right guy.
When Sam made a comment about Nicole's potential physical appearance in the men's living quarters, Benaiah overheard him and was worried that he wasn't there for the right reasons. He promptly told Nicole about his fears but she didn't seem to be too concerned.
After calling it off with Benaiah, Nicole poured her heart out to Sam and the two got engaged. When they met in person, things were bit awkward, and Nicole put the engagement ring on the wrong finger. While Sam seemed head over heels, Nicole was hesitant.
As they said their goodbyes, Sam said "I think I love you" but Nicole didn't reciprocate.
As the rest of the couples prepared to fly to Greece for a romantic getaway, Nicole called things off with Sam. "Something didn't quite feel right," she said in a confessional interview.
While reflecting on their relationship, Sam also said he realized "something was off" when they met in person.
Benaiah and Nicole
Relationship status: Still married
Nicole was instantly intrigued by Benaiah's free spirited approach to life, even if she was somewhat concerned he wasn't ready to settle down. The two grew a close bond in the pods and seemed to be heading in the right direction.
Then, Benaiah warned Nicole that Sam wasn't the right person for her, and was heartbroken when she chose Sam anyway.
After Nicole called off her engagement to Sam, she contacted Benaiah to "make things right."
They showed up to Corfu as an engaged couple. They had another run-in with Sam after the pods, and while Benaiah was still distrustful, they managed to move on fast.
At the altar, Nicole pushed past fears of getting married again and said yes. So did Benaiah. "Easy," he added."
At the reunion, Benaiah and Nicole confirmed they are still together. "I love her more each day," Benaiah said.
