The two-part “Love Is Blind UK” finale dropped this week, and despite the usual dull spots — wedding dress and suit shopping scenes that could have been a mood board, by-the-book stag and hen do activities, all the standard trimmings of a wedding day — we were rapt. This season ended as all the best seasons do: Some drama, some suspense, some swoony happy endings, and one woman walking away from marriage to a man who can’t quite see her as a full equal.
In this episode, we discuss the resurgence of strict gender roles and “being in our masculine/feminine” relationship frameworks, the slow-motion implosion of Bardha and Jed’s engagement, Billy’s doubts and Ashleigh’s heartbreaking determination to win him over, and the love stories that made our hearts skip a beat. We end with an enemies-to-friends ranking and rate our final four couples on whether they should stay together/date after the show. Hope you enjoy!
