Love is Blind recently premiered with season 3 on Netflix. The famed reality TV series released the first four episodes on October 19, 2022. Thirty new singletons entered the pods, ready to take the plunge and fall in love sight unseen. One among them is 26-year-old ballet dancer Colleen Reed, who hails from Dallas, Texas. She got engaged to Matt Bolton on the show.

The official synopsis for Love is Blind reads,

“As Vanessa and Nick Lachey love to say, “The pods are now open.” Or at least they will be when Love Is Blind Season 3 premieres on Oct. 19. Naturally, those pods will be filled with 30 singles taking a risk and hoping to fall in love, sight unseen, though only a handful will ultimately get engaged without ever laying eyes on their beloveds. It takes a very special cast to jump into Love Is Blind heart-first, and this group is unforgettable.”

Love is Blind season 3 released a trailer ahead of the premiere, which features various proposals and wedding prep. The sneak peak also teases one cast member walking down the line but having second thoughts. But to find out whether or not they made it down the line, viewers will have to watch the series that is now available to stream on Netflix.
