‘Love is Blind: UK’ Season 3: Here are the cast and their Instagram profiles

Love is Blind: UK Season 3 premiered on Netflix Wednesday, gracing our screens with 30 new single men and women looking for love beyond looks.

The singles wasted no time jumping into the pods and getting to know each other, with the goal of finding true love and, ideally, marriage – all without meeting face-to-face until the proposal. This season is hosted by married celebrity couple Emma and Matt Willis, and brings together 15 men and 15 women from parts of England, Wales, and Scotland, including entrepreneurs, business owners, former military members, and health professionals.

Here’s everything you need to know about this season’s cast members, from Netflix Tudum, including their Instagram handles:

Ciara Murphy (@ciaramurphyldn)

Ciara, 29, is a pilates instructor from London, and she’s looking for a man that can keep up with her taste for luxury (she notes she’s worth the investment). She said she was cheated on in her last relationship, and is hoping to meet someone who can value her beyond looks. Love a queen who knows her worth.

Ciara hits it off early with Jack and Ajay, for different reasons: She liked Jack’s free-spirited personality, and enjoyed Ajay’s stable energy and their shared love for an active lifestyle, leading to some painfully awkward moments in the episodes to come.

Jack Bradshaw (@jackbradshaw)

Jack, 30, is a chef from Cornwall, England, and describes himself as “one of a kind.” He says he’s turning to the pods for a shot at love after being single for two years, and said he doesn’t like the small, everyone-knows-each-other dating scene in Cornwall.

Jack formed deep connections with Ciara and Faye early on, hitting it off with Faye off the bat because they’re both hoping to marry someone who’s like a best friend.

Ajay Cheema (@ajaycheema)

Ajay, 33, is a fitness coach and former banking associate and basketball player from London. He shifted away from banking to focus more on travel and fitness, having spent 10 months living in Australia, and is hoping to meet someone who shares the same interests.

Ajay and Ciara hit it off immediately in the pods, with the pair bonding over their mutual interest in fitness and “nice things.”

Faye Domaille (@fayedomaille)

Faye is a 28-year-old executive assistant from London who says she’s looking for a partner that will be her cheerleader: someone who will stand up for her and not put her down.

Joseph Subuola (@josephsubuola)

Joseph, 33, is a senior project manager from London. As a Christian, Joseph said he is hoping to meet someone who shares his faith. He said he’s not currently dating and can be shy about approaching women when he’s out and about. Fortunately for Joseph, the pods may help him solve for that.  

Joseph gets faced with a difficult decision after forming connections with both Chevanique and Francesca.

Chevanique (@chevanique_t)

Chevanique, 29, is a sexual health nurse from Birmingham, England, looking to get her “eggs cracked” and her “name dropped.” Her most recent relationship ended after five years, and Chevanique is ready to find someone to start a family with – and hopefully someone who makes a really good omelette. And honestly, who doesn’t want a good omelette?

Francesca Emmanuel (@francescaemmanuel_)

Francesca is a 29-year-old HR associate from London. She describes dating as “awful,” and that she prefers to meet people in real life versus on dating apps. She’s looking for a connection similar to that of her parents, and more specifically, someone who could be an “airport dad” (taking care of all the business at the airport).

Francesca and Joseph bonded over their faith, as Joseph is Christian and Francesca is Catholic, and realized that they had a lot more in common as well: They both say they’re looking for a genuine connection, and someone to share a happy, wholesome family life with.

Sophie Tregaskiss (@sophietregaskiss)

Sophie is a 27-year-old operations team leader hailing from Greater Manchester, England. She was with her previous partner for seven years, since she was 19, and has been single for seven months. She said that she’s always known that she wanted to settle down young and start a family unit. (Sophie hits it off with Taylor early on, and vowed to clean while Taylor cooks.)

Taylor Burgen (@taylorburgen93)

Taylor, 31, is a head of sales from Hertfordshire, England, and a self-proclaimed “softie.” He says he was with his last girlfriend for seven years, and is hoping to fall in love again, ideally with someone he could start a family with.

Yasmin Toseafa (@yasmeenstagram_)

Yasmin is a 32-year-old physician associate based in London. While she’s never been in an official relationship, Yasmin, who develops a connection with cast member Jordan, said she’s hoping the pods will lead her toward a romance that feels fated. Yasmin has a skin condition called vitiligo, which she says she used to try to cover up but now fully embraces.

Jordan (@jayyt96)

Jordan is a 29-year-old teacher and former military soldier from Birmingham who says he’s looking for a love like the one his grandparents share. He says he’s hoping to meet someone who gets along with his mom and sisters. Sweet!

Cuba Riggs (@cubariggs)

Cuba, 29, is a yoga and fitness instructor from London. Cuba was previously engaged, but broke up with her partner after finding out that they were cheating on her. She says she values spirituality because of the freedom it grants believers, and is looking for someone she connects with on a soul-to-soul level.

Fortunately for Cuba, Ryan also values spirituality after spending some time in southeast Asia. The pair bonded over their shared values and desire to start a farm, eat organic food, and homeschool their children.

Ryan Roberts (@ryanlewisroberts)

Ryan is a 33-year-old public speaker from Manchester who says he might be single because his job demands a lot of travel (and because he tends to keep his relationships at arm’s length).

Ryan said his spirituality led him to Love is Blind: UK, where he happened to hit it off with Cuba.

Neive Ewing (@neivexo)

Neive, 27, is a car sales associate from Perth, Scotland, who describes her ideal man as a “G-wagon.”

Sammy Harper (@sammy.harper_)

Katie Linsky (@katiejlinsky)

Katie, 30, is a project manager and single mom from Doncaster, England. While her first marriage ended after three months, Katie is ready to find love again and share her heart with someone else. We’re rooting for you, Katie!

Monum Sabir (@monumsabirrr)

Monum is a 29-year-old audiologist from Bury, England, who said her previous relationships didn’t match her standards. She is in search of a partner who can finally align with her values.

Zelania Ann-Marie (@zelaniaaaa)

Zelania is a 29-year-old marketing manager hailing from London. Her last relationship ended abruptly after her partner moved to Australia, so she says she’s now looking for a partner that is more reliable.

Hannah Connolly (@hannahlouissee)

Hannah, 27, describes herself as a black cat who’s looking for a golden retriever. An accountant from Leeds, England, Hannah has been single for two years after finding out her ex had been messaging other women.

Komel Waqar (@komelwaqar)

Komel, 34, is a senior finance officer from Glasgow, Scotland. She’s been single for 18 months after giving her all in two long-term relationships, and is hoping to date with more intention in the pods to find her person.

Lydia James (@lydiaejames)

Lydia is a 31-year-old senior product manager and sports fan from Cardiff, Wales. She believes that dating apps tend to focus more on looks, and she’s in the pods to find someone that could actually support her at home and financially.
