Good news: Netflix are soon gifting us Love Is Blind UK season 2.
You know the score (and bizarre premise) by now. A group of singles meet and get to know each other in “pods” where you can hear your date's voice, but you can't see them. The experiment is meant to determine whether love is truly blind, as couples get engaged within seconds of meeting IRL, after weeks of “blind” conversation.
Our Noughties nostalgia has hit overload.
What follows is an intense trip abroad with the other couples, moving in together and then deciding whether to go the distance on their wedding day. And the addictive dating reality TV series is back on UK soil for more drama, we're sure.
Here's what we know so far about a second season.
Is Love Is Blind UK season two happening?
Yes it is – Netflix dropped a video confirming the news. Presenters Matt and Emma Willis broke the news on the video, with Matt quipping, “We've not been able to stop feeling the feels, so we are bringing you another dose of love”.

Who will host Love Is Blind UK season 2?
Matt and Emma Willis will be stepping back into their role as presenters for Love Is Blind UK season 2.
The duo opened up to GLAMOUR as part of our Bestie Test about their time presenting season one, Emma in particular praising the contestants for their deep, intimate conversations and bravery. “[The show is] for people who genuinely want to settle down, they’re sick of the dating world as it is currently,” she said.
Matt added that he was so won over by the concept of Love Is Blind, he'd be in support of implementing it countrywide. “They need to do Love Is Blind holiday camps, because everyone would sign up. There’s something about it," he said.
