Love is Blind UK was out on August 7 on Netflix, and with it, one more version of the coveted dating reality show was added to the array of international versions it already had. The first four episodes saw some participants getting to know each other and some even getting engaged.
Many Love is Blind UK stars found connections with more than one partner. Among these was Ollie, who had sparks flying with Catherine and Demi. He bonded with the two of them over different things, which made it hard for him to choose one over the other.
Demi was sure of Ollie even before he was. So when she confessed to him that her "heart" lied with him, Ollie said:
"Okay right now, I'm not a 100% sure. I mean, I know what I want, but I'm not 100% sure who that is".
Ollie's struggles to choose between Catherine and Demi on Love is Blind UK
In episode 1 of Love is Blind UK, Ollie found a connection with both Demi and Catherine on their first dates. While on a date with Catherine, they bonded over the type of life they wanted to lead after marriage. They complimented each other's voices and related over the fact that they both liked doing "fun stuff" together as a married couple.
Ollie got along with Demi because of their competitive spirit. They talked about beating each other at sports and their views on having a family. Demi said that she liked Ollie and was eager to show her vulnerable sides, although she was trudging slowly. Ollie said that the foundation of a relationship was friendship, and he felt like they already had that.
At the Male Living Quarters, Ollie compared his two dates in front of some of his co-stars. He said that Catherine gave him s**ual energy and that he thought she was pulling on what men want. On the other hand, he said Demi was giving him the connection energy and that he felt more connected to her.
He repeated the same views after one of his dates with Catherine, where they talked about what they wore while lounging. When he asked Catherine what she wore while relaxing, she said she liked wearing a sports bra and shorts.
Ollie called the outfit choice "s*xy," and Catherine said she liked it. After their date finished, Ollie took to a confessional to say that Catherine gave off s**ual vibes and said that he had an image of a "seductress" associated with her. He said that he didn't prefer to go with such a vibe because, in the past, that had led him to the wrong girl.
On his date with Demi, she asked how he would treat her if she was "snappy." Ollie said he would give her cuddles and reassurance, an answer which hit home for Demi. She said she didn't want to be too open or vulnerable with him because she liked him. This is when Ollie said he wasn't fully sure because he wanted to give another girl (Catherine) a chance.
"I'm feeling the element of guilt in talking to Cat the way I'm talking to her, then talking to Demi the way I'm talking to her," Ollie said in a confessional on Love is Blind UK.
He continued to say that he was stuck in a predicament and that he was trying because he had never done such a thing before.
Episodes 5 to 9 of Love is Blind UK drop on August 14 on Netflix.
