Love Is Blind: UK Season-Finale Recap: ‘Don’t Hug Me’


Whatever the results of the finale, we should all take solace in the fact that Freddie, the hot funeral director, comes away still charming and hot.

It seems like the men get the short end of the stick here; sure, they get to drink beers and ride around London in a pedibus before retiring to an arcade bar, but the women get to enjoy a glitzy burlesque (lite) club. At the risk of being too hard on Cat, I must admit I found it very funny that after spending the whole season complaining that she’s not as “bougie” as Freddie and Ollie have both made her out to be, this girl shows up to her TV wedding carrying a Louis Vuitton weekend bag. You can tell going into the ceremony how nervous Freddie is; as he puts it, “I’m a pro at funerals, but maybe not so much at weddings.” Soon enough, however, he embraces his inner ( probably) Capricorn and says the practical thing that we all knew was coming: “I love you, Cat, but the timing might not be right for us.” Given how much friction we’ve seen between the two of them for the past few weeks, this feels like the smart choice.
