Ollie and AD's proposal featured on Love is Blind Season 8 reunion
During Love is Blind Season 8 reunion episode, which aired on March 9, 2025, alums AD Smith and Ollie Sutherland made a special appearance to give the hosts an insight about what they had been up to since their respective appearances on the show.
AD revealed that she had launched her own podcast, What's the Reality? before a promo of Netflix's Perfect Match Season 3 was played. After the announcement, AD and Ollie were seen walking on the beach and host Nick Lachey wondered if there was more.
In the clip, Ollie led the Love is Blind Season 6 alum down a sand dune as she asked him repeatedly what was happening. Ollie asked her if she was comfortable as AD looked at something off camera and said it was "so pretty."
Ollie led her to where he planned to propose and went down on one knee. The cast watching the clip cheered as the Love is Blind UK star popped the question. He told AD she was his "best friend" and the love of his life.
"I've never felt as happy or as complete as I have since I met you," he said.
Ollie added that nothing would make him happier than being able to spend the rest of his life loving AD. He asked her if she would marry him and she said "Yes." She squealed and asked if he was serious and he said he was.
Several Love is Blind Season 8 cast members teared up looking at the proposal, including co-host Vanessa Lachey. She said she was "so happy" as Olli and AD kissed on screen and the male alum told her he loved her.
The hosts congratulated the newly engaged couple followed by Nick asking AD if she had any idea. She said she was "so surprised" while Ollie revealed that he had been planning the proposal for months.
"I get emotional because I know this woman's journey and have had the pleasure of getting to see you blossom as a strong, independent woman. But I know how much it meant to you to find the one," Vanessa Lachey said.
Fans of Love is Blind Season 8 commented on AD and Ollie's engagement announcement online and congratulated the couple.
The reunion special can be streamed on Netflix.
