The Netflix reality TV factory keeps churning at full speed, and yes, a new season of Love is Blind is ready to binge. I know, I know, we literally just watched season 9 and are still dissecting that infamous chicken smoothie in therapy every week.

Who's in the Love is Blind season 10 cast?
Age: 34
Job: Nurse
Star sign: Aries
Jessica Vestal made waves as a single mum on Love Is Blind season six, and now Amber is stepping into the spotlight to carry that mantle. With a seven-year-old daughter at home, her priority is finding the right person to join the close-knit family she’s built. She’s hoping to welcome a similarly driven partner into their homey life, as long as he doesn’t mind which side of the bed he sleeps on.
“It’s one thing to travel or do fun things with someone, but that doesn’t matter as much as being there for me when I have a horrible day,” she says.
Amber earned a master’s degree while raising a toddler, channelling that same ambition into every aspect of her life. And if that weren’t enough, she also brings homemade waffles and syrup on a Sunday morning. We’re sold.
Age: 34
Job: Claims manager
Star sign: Virgo
Ashley describes herself as fiercely loyal — “almost to a fault,” which, honestly, hard relate. She prides herself on always showing up for the people in her life and making them feel supported, something she chalks up to the “Ohio way.” Add in a bold, outspoken, and outgoing personality, and you’ve got someone who knows exactly who she is.
Family is central to Ashley’s world, especially her relationship with her father, whom she calls her best friend. “As long as I make my parents proud, then I’m proud of myself,” she says.
Outside of work, Ashley spends her summers playing golf with her family in South Carolina, which is a long-standing tradition she hopes to one day share with a future partner.
The sunny blonde recently left a “toxic” five-year relationship and admits she has a habit of overlooking red flags. That said, she’s crystal clear about her standards, particularly when it comes to cleanliness and hygiene in a partner.
Age: 34
Job: Senior merchant
Star sign: Leo
We’ve got a girlboss in the pods. Alongside her demanding full-time job, Bri runs a side hustle flipping investment properties across the country — hence her commitment to “maximising” every minute of the day. “I operate at 100 miles an hour, and I’m looking for someone to help mellow me out,” she says. It’s giving opposites attract.
When it comes to dating, Bri knows exactly what she won’t tolerate. “The biggest red flag to me is someone with a lack of direction in life,” she explains. “If he can’t show up strong and confident, I find that really unattractive — especially in your thirties.”
Like many of us, Bri comes with a long list of icks. Still, she’s hopeful she can look past them to find her soulmate, someone to enjoy life’s small pleasures with. “I want to do all the simple things in life that I’ve done alone for so long,” she admits. Here’s hoping.
Brittany Steward
Age: 37
Job: Flight attendant
Star sign: Gemini
From the skies to the pods, Brittany is ready to serve — good looks. A former Cleveland Cavaliers dancer, she even took home a National Championship ring as co-captain of the team. But that chapter is firmly in the past. “Now,” she says, “I’m looking for the real ring.”
Born and raised in Ohio, Brittany can’t wait to introduce a fiancé to her “crazy” family — the very people she credits for her silly, goofy sense of humour.
A true Gemini, Brittany claims she has “about eight different personalities,” though she promises to limit herself to just two during this experiment. One side of her is a total chatterbox; the other needs space when emotions run high. So if her pod dates feel like they’ve hit an intermission, don’t panic. “I need a minute to think and then come back to have the conversation,” she explains.
We’ve already seen how the travel demands of a flight attendant lifestyle caused friction on the latest season of Love Is Blind: UK for Ashleigh and Billy — so the question is whether Brittany will have more success this time around.
Age: 33
Job: Nurse
Star sign: Aquarius
Brittany is a natural giver, and her career as a nurse has only deepened her instinct to care for others. She’s proud to have paid off her nursing school debt and is ready to meet a partner who’s just as driven and hardworking.
Like Kalybriah and Amy before her, Brittany is waiting until her wedding day to do the deed. After her last relationship, she spent the past year “becoming whole” — a journey that included a vow of celibacy.
When it comes to compatibility, Brittany knows exactly what she needs. Her ideal partner is either a very heavy sleeper or someone who can tolerate her devotion to the snooze button. “I’m not a morning person, and I have to set, like, 10 alarms,” she admits.
Ultimately, she’s hoping to roller-skate off into the sunset with her future husband — yes, roller-skate.
Age: 30
Job: Real estate agent
Star sign: Aries
Bry hasn’t been in a relationship for seven years and can’t even remember the last time she went on a “real” date — hard relate. “Nobody has been able to make me feel like they can take all of me,” she admits.
Life hasn’t been easy for Bry. She lost her mum, who was incarcerated, to cancer, and then her grandma less than a year later. Keeping herself together through her twenties has been, in her words, a “huge accomplishment.”
She loves life in Ohio and hopes to find someone who can give her that same sense of home. Her perfect match won’t be too sensitive and must be able to handle her tough-love language. “If I bully you, I really do love you,” she laughs.
Bry is a reality-TV fanaticand wants a partner who won’t mind her hogging the remote. “That’s my favourite thing to do: sit on my couch, eat fast food, and watch Real Housewives.”
Age: 31
Job: Speech-language pathologist
Star sign: Scorpio
Christine describes herself as mellow and easygoing, definitely not one for “being the center of attention” — fair enough. She has a strong feeling that “somebody good” is waiting for her in the pods, and she has no intention of settling. “I don’t just want a husband. I want a partner to do life with,” she says. “I’ve gone 30 years without him, and I’m ready for him now.”
She’s done her homework, keeping a running list of relationship tips she’s collected over the years. “I keep track of all the marriage advice I’ve received from couples that have been together for a long time,” she explains. Her favourite? “Pray for your husband before you even meet him.”
Faith is important to Christine, and she hopes to find someone who’ll join her at church every Sunday. But that’s not the only activity she wants to share; she’s also hoping for a partner who will cheer alongside her at games, especially when it comes to supporting her beloved Bengals.
Age: 33
Job: Senior marketing manager
Star sign: Aries
Star signs are important to Dynasty, and she describes herself as an Aries “through and through” — in other words, an eternal optimist. A romantic at heart, she’s known to surprise past boyfriends with thoughtful gifts and experiences. Now that she’s older and “the budget is bigger,” she’s ready to spoil her man.
A brave girlie, Dynasty even spent two years here in England earning her master’s degree. Travel is a huge part of who she is, so she’s hoping for a partner with the same wanderlust. But it’s not all adventure, she’s most excited to share her love of self-care, like doing “a 12-step skincare routine together” after winding down in front of the TV with a cup of tea. Honestly, we’re sold.
Age: 39
Job: Nurse
Star sign: Leo
Got a pet allergy? To have a shot with Elissa, you’re “going to have to get a shot.” Her two cats and dog were “here first,” and they’re not going anywhere. Don’t worry, she’s not heartless; she’s very much “an acts-of-service kinda girl.”
A true Leo, Elissa can’t help but be the centre of attention at times, but she’s happy to share the spotlight with someone who can make her laugh. In the past, she’s struggled to find men who take her seriously: “They want to take me home but not take me home to mama.”
Her mum thinks she’s too picky, and her icks include flip-flops. “I’m just excited about going to the grocery store and cooking together, and then sitting down and watching our favourite show,” she shares.
Age: 28
Job: Retail merchandising
Star sign: Aries
Unlike some other cast members this season, Emma is a late arrival to Ohio. She moved for work and has been busy building a community. Through a 200-hour yoga teacher training and launching her own food Instagram account, she’s connected with plenty of new friends. Now, she’s excited to share her favourite pastimes, like morning yoga and cooking a hearty Sunday-night meal, with a soulmate.
“Food is my love language,” she says. Emma enjoys every part of the process, from gathering ingredients to plating the final dish.
Independence (and counter space) is important to her, but she’s willing to make a few concessions for the right man.
Age: 32
Job: Financial professional
Star sign: Scorpio
It’s feeling like a Scorpio-heavy season! Jennifer prides herself on her communication and isn’t afraid to be honest or throw in a cheeky “that’s what she said” joke. You can expect plenty of laughs with Jennifer and her family, and she’s excited to welcome a spouse into the mix.
“I’m a clean freak, but I’m really bad at folding laundry,” she admits. In return, she’s all about romantic gestures, making sure her man gets his flowers — both literal and figurative. “Guys deserve to get flowers too,” she insists. And honestly, they really do.
After some bad experiences, Jennifer says she’s “not the biggest fan of Gemini men.” But if she meets one who’s thoughtful, loyal, and an adventurous eater, it could be the perfect match — this Scorpio just might find her twin flame.
Age: 39
Job: Infectious diseases physician
Star sign: Libra
Remember Daniel and Taylor’s obsession with Christmas in season eight? Well, Jessica has a thing for Halloween. “I have a whole box of wigs at home,” she says. While she’s ready to commit to a couple’s costume, this spooky-season fan admits she can get scared when it comes to dating.
The hardest part? Removing the wig — or mask — as she fears vulnerability. “Admitting that I need help or some support can be hard,” Jessica explains.
Family is everything to her. Her younger sister is her bestie, and her parents were the ones who encouraged her to join the experiment. “I do a lot of things that could get on my partner’s nerves,” she laughs. “I live alone and I talk to my dogs all day long.”
Her ultimate ick? Chewing with your mouth open. With misophonia, she won’t be sticking around for dessert if that’s the case. Wonder how she’ll slip that into conversation in the pods…
Age: 31
Job: Marketing director
Star sign: Leo
Keya counts one of her biggest accomplishments as speaking at a Harvard Business School conference about the cannabis industry. But it’s not all work and no play, as her family would describe her as goofy and bubbly, and she’s looking for a partner who can keep up with her banter. “I need someone who is as sarcastic as I am,” she says.
Her perfect match also needs to keep pace on her morning runs, as she’s training for a half-marathon. But don’t be fooled, this go-getter doesn’t need a flawless man. “Being imperfect is perfect to me,” she insists.
A self-described “proud passenger princess,” Keya is hoping for someone successful and driven, aka “a man about his business.”
Age: 34
Job: Recruiter
Star sign: Virgo
Priyanka has spent the last 11 years single, so the idea of getting married in seven weeks feels “scary” — cold feet, anyone? She knows a lasting relationship takes work, and she’s more than willing to put in the time and effort. “If it were easy, life would be boring,” she says.
Having built a life from scratch across several major cities, Priyanka is easily described as a “socialite” who meets new people effortlessly. But despite her social prowess, she values her independence and has no intention of sacrificing it for love. “I’m a firm believer that bringing someone into my life is an added value and doesn’t complete me,” she explains.
Age: 31
Job: Marketing manager
Star sign: Sagittarius
Like many of us, Rosalyn often hears that she “talks too much,” but she’s looking for someone who can appreciate her animated storytelling. A passionate writer, she dabbles in everything from children’s books to romance novels, and she hopes to find a partner she can bounce ideas off while deep in a draft. Let’s see if she can write a happy ending to her own love story in just seven weeks.
One must-have trait for her leading man? Strong political views that align with hers. “I wouldn’t be able to build a foundation if we didn’t believe in the same core things,” she explains.
Age: 33
Job: Sales leader
Star sign: Gemini
We’ve got a delulu girlie like us! Tyler admits she can be a “little delusional,” but it’s only because she’s powered by optimism. “Everything in my life that I’ve done has been a result of me being bold and taking a little bit of risk,” she explains.
A proud “girl’s girl,” Tyler even started a nonprofit in college to support other women. But she’s hoping for someone with a calming energy to balance her. “I want a soft place to land,” she says.
That said, she knows she’ll need to switch up her tactics to find her forever partner. “My biggest struggle dating in Ohio is that I don’t be outside. I be in my bed, taking a nap,” she laughs. “My hope is that my man is going to knock on my door someday and wake me. I’m the problem, not Ohio.”
She’s ready to be Crazy in Love with a fellow member of the Bey Hive — or a soon-to-be convert.
Age: 31
Job: Financial sales
Star sign: Pisces
Sports boy searches for wifey. Alex was drafted by Minnesota United, and the former Division 1 goalkeeper never expected his professional sports career to be cut short. “I’m proud of being able to come back mentally after four knee surgeries took away my athletic career,” he says.
He might just score one more time, especially with a spontaneous woman who can embrace his inner nomad. Fingers crossed she can tolerate Alex’s worst habit: sipping from a water bottle in the fridge, putting it back, and grabbing a new one. “A couple of arguments have happened because of that,” he admits.
In return, he promises to be his partner’s rock through and through. “I’ve been through a lot and can be strong when the chips are down,” he explains.
Age: 33
Job: Assistant controller
Star sign: Libra
Dating in Ohio hasn’t been easy for Alex. “I don’t listen to country music and I’m not religious, so that cuts out about 60% of the population,” he says. After five years of the single life, he’s hopeful the other 40% is waiting in the pods.
Alex describes himself as a “lovable smart-ass,” and his biggest ick is a baby voice. “It freaks me out,” he admits. “That’s six months of trouble. Just stay away.”
Want to be his lover? You’ve got to get along with his friends. “If you don’t get along with my friends, it’s not going to work out,” he warns. Bonus points if you enjoy yoga, golf, and are comfortable in your own skin — simple, really.
Age: 30
Job: Accounting and finance manager
Star sign: Libra
Brennan once wrote handwritten letters to an ex-girlfriend every week, and he’s bringing that same dedication to dating in the pods. A dealbreaker? Wanting to start a family. Kindness is key for him: “I want to meet someone who’s soft-spoken, caring, and thoughtful — whether they’re with me or a stranger in a coffee shop,” he explains.
He’s not afraid to “do hard things,” whether that’s training for a marathon, learning to manage his feelings, or stepping into the chaos of a reality dating show.
Age: 33
Job: Account executive
Star sign: Pisces
Another man on a mission, Chris loves working up a sweat, whether that’s through jiu-jitsu or an Ironman triathlon. This military veteran is looking for someone who can match his pace on the treadmill and his positive outlook on life. “My best habit is being overly optimistic about any situation,” he says.
His most recent relationship ended after six years, but Chris hasn’t lost faith in finding a soulmate. If all goes according to plan, his two pets — an adopted stray cat named Chalupa and his dog, Cookie — will have a new mummy in no time… as long as she can handle his habit of singing to them every morning.
Age: 32
Job: Account management
Star sign: Pisces
Connor is on the hunt for his ride-or-die partner, someone ready to join his family’s summer tradition of visiting Grandpa’s Cheesebarn. (Lactose-free girlies, beware.) Beyond that, he’s looking for a woman who “makes me feel secure in the relationship and confident” about their future together.
Starting a family is a top priority for Connor. “I know I’m gonna be a good father,” he says. “I want little me’s running around and to teach them soccer.”
His mum has given him one key piece of advice for the pods: “Listen first.” “Sometimes I ramble a lot, so if she’s too nice to shut me up, I’ll just keep talking,” he laughs. Let’s see if he manages to follow it.
Age: 32
Job: Loan officer
Star sign: Sagittarius
We’ve got another sports bro joining the pods. Devo spends most of his time watching or talking about basketball, football, or really whatever’s on. If his future partner can handle his game-day obsession, he promises to cheer her on from the sidelines for life.
“I don’t want you to give up your dreams and your passions. I want to be able to support you,” he says.
Fresh off his last relationship, Devo is ready to get down on one knee. He’s searching for a goal-driven woman who’s prepared to fully commit and build a loving family. But communication is key and he won’t pursue a second date with someone whose skills aren’t up to his standards. “I’m not a mind reader, so when I have to guess what’s going on or what you’re thinking, that’s an ick to me,” he admits.
Age: 36
Job: E.R. doctor
Star sign: Virgo
Is there a doctor in the pods? Indeed, there is. As an E.R. doctor, Haramol knows just how precious life can be — swoon — and now he’s searching for someone to spend the rest of his with. “My job and my life have deep purpose, so it’s hard to find time to date,” he admits.
But his career doesn’t define him. Outside of work, Haramol loves doing “little romantic things” for his friends, going to the dog park with his beloved husky, Bronny, and listening to six hours of music every day.
After three years of “protecting [his] space and heart,” he’s ready to push past his fears and find a partner who loves him unconditionally. “Sometimes I wonder if I’m going to end up being too much for somebody once they figure out how much I care,” he says.
Age: 34
Job: Account executive
Star sign: Pisces
Jordan is known as the “life of the party,” but finding a partner is no laughing matter, especially after nine years of being single. “I’ve been through heartbreak before, and that’s when you start to put walls up,” he admits.
For the right person, though, Jordan is ready to open up and develop a “pure connection.” He can’t wait to share his favourite traditions with his future wife, from competitive card games at Thanksgiving to long walks with his six-year-old dog, Beau. “If you don’t like dogs, sorry — he was here first,” Jordan warns, adding that he even brought a photo album of Beau into the pods for when he gets lonely.
Age: 32
Job: Realtor
Star sign: Scorpio
Kevan has spent the last two years single, waiting for that “sweep you off your feet” moment, but so far, his feet are still firmly on the ground. “I’m most excited about finally meeting my best friend,” he says. Kevan has been focusing on his health and launching his real estate career, and the last piece of the puzzle is having a “lovely lady” by his side.
He loves his friend group, but he’s tired of dragging them on trips or to sporting events. “Being able to have someone to travel with and tag along would just be amazing,” he admits.
Ladies, be warned: Kevan admits he can be quite the know-it-all.
Age: 35
Job: Accountant
Star sign: Taurus
Someone clearly took The 5 AM Club a little too seriously. By 5 a.m., this self-described golden retriever is fueling up with a cup of black coffee — served with an extra shot of espresso — before heading out the door. Night owls, beware.
He’s drawn to passionate people. “I don’t care what it’s about, but I like someone who brings their best self to whatever they do,” he says.
And he’s confident his soulmate is out there in Ohio. “People think Ohio is boring, but it’s not just a flyover state. It has a vibrant arts scene, awesome sports teams, and amazing people.”
Age: 32
Job: Software engineers
Star sign: Taurus
Born in Puerto Rico, Miguel is proud to have built a life in the U.S. after earning a basketball scholarship and landing a job in Cincinnati. Dating stateside, however, has been less successful. After ending a four-year relationship, he’s found the local scene a little too insular to spark a real connection.
“Within five seconds of meeting someone, I know if I’m attracted to them or not,” Miguel explains. Ouch.
A pro bodybuilder who naturally turns heads, Miguel admits he struggles to maintain a flame with someone serious and selfless. “Love is a commitment — through health and sickness, wealth and poverty,” he says. “There’s no backing out when it comes to marriage.”
Age: 30
Job: Sales manager
Star sign: Taurus
Perhaps the newest resident in Ohio, Mike left New Jersey seven months ago to build a new life. “I’m fresh to Ohio,” he says. “I’m proud of myself for moving somewhere where I don’t know anyone.”
He’s loving life in Ohio, but dating hasn’t been easy. Mike usually meets women at bars or on dating apps, which he admits plays into his worst habits. “I focus too much on the physical, and I tend to be picky,” he explains, noting that “dark hair and a beautiful smile” typically grab his attention.
Mike admits he was “too immature” to marry in the past, but he’s been working on himself and his communication skills to make the most of the experiment. One thing that hasn’t changed? His love language of giving gifts.
Age: 29
Job: Business owner
Star sign: Sagittarius
In the past, Parker has struggled with an anxious attachment style — a man, even knows what that is? But now, he’s “happy, complete and secure” — well, that makes one of us. He’s ready to meet the love of his life, alongside his rambunctious one-year-old Bernese mountain dog.
As the owner of an automotive company, Parker rarely gets a moment to himself, so excuse him if he’s not the life of the party. “I’m not always an extrovert — sometimes my inner introvert takes over, and I want to spend the whole weekend inside,” he admits.
Steven Sunday
Age: 32
Job: Finance
Star sign: Sagittarius
After nearly a year of being single, Steven is looking for a highly social and optimistic partner with a deep appreciation for family.
Steven is no stranger to the Love Is Blind mindset. “The best relationships I’ve had have been based on personality first, and looks were secondary,” he explains. One thing he won’t tolerate? People who speak badly about their brother or sister.
In his spare time, Steven enjoys painting and glassblowing, hobbies he picked up during COVID after completing an apprenticeship. Perhaps this budding artist will find his muse on the other side of the pods.
Age: 32
Job: Management consultant
Star sign: Capricorn
Forget finding someone to grow old with, Tyler wants a partner to keep him forever young. “You can go to music festivals at 70 if you want. No one is stopping you,” he says.
He’s ticking off an impressive bucket list, like travelling to more countries — 18 and counting — but his wanderlust has made dating tricky. “Nobody wants to leave Ohio. A lot of people are pretty locked in,” he admits.
Provide the passport, and Tyler will provide the romance. “Romance to me is saving all their little details in my phone, like their Chipotle order or how they like their coffee,” he explains. In return, he only asks that she remember his favourite beverage (chocolate milk) and doesn’t mind his late-night vacuuming habit. “Sometimes I do it at 4 in the morning,” he laughs.
Age: 34
Job: Professor
Star sign: Virgo
The biggest tragedy of dating in the pods? Women won’t realise Victor is 6-foot-3, although we wouldn’t be surprised if he brings it up. Aside from his height, Victor can boast about his PhD. “People I’ve dated have seen me as Superman, and that makes it hard to open up,” he admits. “My biggest fear is being vulnerable and getting hurt.” Can’t relate.
Originally from Brooklyn and new to Columbus, Victor is holding out hope for a partner who values the “transparency, consistency, and overall security” he can bring to a relationship.
He describes himself as a “slow burn”, which, ironically, may be ideal for pod dating… or maybe not.
Episodes 1 - 6 will be released on February 11, with more dropping weekly.
It's giving a Drive to Survive and The Kardashians crossover episode.
