In a heartwarming turn of events, reality TV stars Amber Desiree “AD” Smith from Love Is Blind Season 6 and Ollie Sutherland from Love Is Blind: UK Season 1 have found their happily ever after.
The couple announced their engagement during the Season 8 reunion of the popular Netflix series on Sunday, March 9.
AD and Ollie’s love story began while filming Season 3 of Perfect Match, set to premiere in summer 2025. Although they kept their romance under wraps, speculation arose when they were spotted enjoying an intimate dinner in Mexico after filming concluded.
The pair surprised fans by appearing together at the Love Is Blind Season 8 reunion, where they opened up about their relationship and shared a promo for the upcoming Perfect Match season.
In the promo video, Ollie led AD to a picturesque beach location, where he surprised her with a heartfelt proposal. “You’re my best friend, you’re the love of my life. I’ve never felt as happy as I have since I’ve met you,” he expressed before getting down on one knee.
“Nothing would make me happier than spending the rest of my life loving you.” An ecstatic AD accepted his proposal with a resounding “yes” and sealed the moment with a kiss.
Back at the reunion, AD shared that she was “so surprised” by the proposal, which Ollie revealed he had been planning “for months.”
The couple’s journey to love hasn’t been without its challenges. AD, a fan favorite from Love Is Blind Season 6, left the pods engaged to Clay Gravesande, only for their relationship to end when he said “I don’t” at the altar. When asked if she would give Clay another chance, AD firmly declined.
Clay released a statement via Hollywood Unlocked, expressing his support for his ex’s new chapter. “I’m truly happy for A.D. and wish her nothing but love and happiness in this next chapter of her life,” he said.
“Our journey together was meaningful, and I’m grateful for the lessons and growth that came from it. I’m excited to see her stepping into this new season with someone who makes her happy, and I genuinely wish them both the very best.”
Ollie, on the other hand, found a connection with Demi Brown on Love Is Blind: UK. Despite overcoming obstacles, their engagement ended when Demi said “I do not” at the altar.
As AD and Ollie embark on this exciting new chapter together, fans eagerly await the premiere of Perfect Match Season 3 to witness the blossoming of their love story.
