Love is Blind UK's reunion special aired on Monday, August 26, 2024. During the segment, the cast returned to the show and discussed their time on the show with the hosts of the show, Emma and Matt Willis.

The hosts asked Maria and Tom about their relationship and their time on the show. Tom stated that after watching the show back, he felt his behavior was "ugly" at times. Maria criticized Tom for his actions on the wedding day and said it made her "angry" to watch the segment back as it felt he disrespected her family members.

Later in the conversation, Maria set the record straight about paying bills and said she never wanted Tom to pay for her luxuries and finances, and that it was "taken out of context." Fans of the show took to social media to react to the former couple's interaction and praised Maria for confronting Tom. One person wrote on X:

"Maria is cracking me up! I would give that SAME ENERGY! #loveisblindukreunion"
"Maria clocking tom’s tea . because doing all that with her mom and then being a confessional thug talking down on the way maria was raised was weird ! cause maria is independent but he looked down on her job too #LoveIsBlindUK #LoveIsBlindUKReunion," a fan commented.
"Maria’s got me gagging the whole way through hers and Tom’s segment lmao #LoveIsBlindUK #LoveIsBlindUKReunion," a tweet read.

Love is Blind UK fans criticized Tom and felt the things he said were "a copout":

"Clock his bs Maria. It was a copout through and through. #LoveIsBlindUKReunion #LoveIsBlindUK," a person wrote.
"Also let’s be clear, Maria does NOT like Tom. She was ITCHING to get the f*ck away from him. She knows everything he said was 100% PR bullsh*t. She stood on business though and let him know. #LoveIsBlindUK #LoveIsBlindUKReunion," a fan commented.
"From when Tom wanted Maria to pay towards his mortgage, for sharing his space in his house, it was no from me & give her equity. His age & mentality on how he views marriage tells you everything you need to know rich or not he just not a provider #LoveIsBlindUKReunion," a tweet read.

Love is Blind UK fans further said:

"I’m glad Maria said what she said. He’s such a piece of sh*t for the things he said. He’s a knob. Another one who is an unsurprising red flag. At your big age couldn’t find a woman to have your kids. Abeg. #LoveIsBlindUKReunion," a person wrote.
"Tom's answers are too clinical for me. Glad Maria seems ok #LoveIsBlindUK #LoveIsBlindUKReunion," a fan commented.
