Love Is Blind UK season 3: Start date of Netflix series confirmed as new singletons head into the Pods
Is love really blind?Love Is Blind UK is returning to Netflix for a third series with Emma and Matt Willis back at the helm – but when does it start?
The streamer has confirmed that a brand new group of singles will enter the Pods for another round of blind dating, big feelings and potentially life-changing proposals.
Fans will once again watch as the hopefuls try to build a connection without seeing each other first.
If things go well and love blossoms, they must decide to get engaged before meeting face-to-face for the first time.
But how many will make it that far?
Love Is Blind UK series 3 on Netflix
Netflix first announced in March that Love Is Blind UK would be returning for a third run. It was also confirmed that Emma and Matt would be guiding the newbies through the process once again.
The new singletons will date each other away from the distraction of the outside world. The doors to the Pods will be flung open again so they can get to know each other blind.
Fans of the format will know what happens next. Couples who have made a connection will agree to get engaged, before finally meeting face-to-face.
The cameras will then follow each pair as they head back out into normal life. They’ll go on honeymoon before moving in together.
But once away from the Pods, will the pressure of everyday life become too much? Or will their love only grow stronger?
The final test is the alter, when those last standing will say “I do” as husband and wife.
When does Love Is Blind UK season 3 start?
Love Is Blind fans really don’t have long to wait until the UK series returns. It will drop onto Netflix at 8pm on Wednesday August 19, 2026.
Eagle-eyed fans spotted the start date by hovering over the show on Netflix. A message pops up saying: “The Pods reopen on 19 Aug.”
It has not yet been confirmed who the single guys and girls are. The number of episodes in series 3 also remains a closely-guarded secret for now.
Season 1 of the UK format had 12 episodes, but it returned in 2025 with 14. Here’s hoping for the latter this year.
