Netflix’s popular dating social experiment Love is Blind UK concluded on Wednesday, August 21, 2024, with finale episodes 10 and 11. Later, the show aired the special reunion episode on August 26, 2024, filmed a year after the wedding ceremonies.

Recently, Freddie was interviewed by Dailymail, in which the Love is Blind UK star revealed how he learned about his ex-fiance Catherine dating another co-star from the reality show.

"I found out about it quite early on, to be honest, so not long after we broke up, maybe a couple weeks later, I found out she had been on dates with him," shared Freddie.

Love is Blind UK star shared that he was happy for her as long as Catherine was happy. However, sharing more on the subject, Freddie also shared his personal opinion, as he mentioned that he wouldn’t "personally" choose to date any of their former cast mates from the reality show.

"I wouldn’t choose to, personally. I pursued Cat, and that was my journey. I think you can meet anyone anywhere. You can go to Morrisons (grocery store) and meet someone. You don’t have to meet someone from the pods," shared the Love is Blind UK star.

Significant issues between Freddie and Catherine on Love is Blind UK: Details explored

After Freddie and Catherine chose to pursue their connection on the dating show, the couple was sent to Corfu, Greece, for the next phase of the show. While spending more time together, the couple learned more about each other’s choices, preferences, and lifestyles and discussed their past.

There were a few noticeable differences between the duo after Freddie mentioned that he had cheated in one of his past relationships.

Further on the show, when Freddie met Catherine’s friends, they discussed how Catherine enjoys going out and likes "bougie" things. Meanwhile, Freddie shared that he was a stay-at-home and "watch telly" guy.

Things became confusing when the couple went to see Freddie’s family, and his sister Betsy-Dora shared concerns about their relationship with Freddie.

After so many things had happened, tension was slowly building in Freddie’s mind. That might be why Freddie left Catherine at the altar and chose to say, "I don’t" during their wedding ceremony.

Since the reunion episode, Freddie and Cathrine have clarified that they have not been together since their wedding day and have parted ways in different directions.
