Love is Blind UK stars Catherine and Freddie at the reunion
When Emma asked the two of them if they were together on the Love is Blind UK reunion stage, Catherine said they were not. Freddie said while they had an amazing connection, their lifestyles were different which made it hard for him to make a decision.
He also mentioned the times he wasn't happy and pointed out that Catherine probably wasn't either. When Emma asked what made Freddie back out of the marriage, he mentioned his disapproval of some things that happened in Greece.
This included times when Catherine would "snap" at him without justification and the times when he couldn't be himself around her. Matt then asked Catherine if Freddie's previous cheating incident made her look the other way. She shared she was cheated on before which made her trauma come back but she wasn't going to hold on to it forever.
Lastly, Catherine broke down saying:
"Never change because you will make a girl happy".
She ended the conversation by saying that she and Freddie were probably better suited as friends because they had a great time together. Freddie also said he would be friends with her forever.
