As ever, the pod doors have opened up to a new group of soulmate-seeking singles who want to be loved for who they are rather than what they look like.

Once more, the singles will date one another in the pods before one of them decides to get down on one knee before they meet face-to-face. From there on out, they return to real life and attempt to add a physical element to their existing emotional bond – all while navigating the stress of day-to-day life.

But when exactly does the series return? Scroll on for everything you need to know about Love Is Blind UK season 3.

Will there be a Love Is Blind UK season 3?

There sure will! Netflix quickly renewed Love Is Blind UK for a third season, following a summer of romance and heartbreak last year.

On their journey to find love in season 3, the UK pod squad will date one another without distractions from the outside world in the hopes of building a meaningful connection.

But, as ever, will their emotional connection translate to a physical one when they meet each other for the very first time.

Matt and Emma Willis will once more host the series, with the couple previously telling Radio Times they had a "really fun" time filming the show.

"It was really fun, great working with my wife, which is nice," Matt said.

Emma added: "People have asked us quite a few times over the years if we'd ever do anything together again, and we've always said we would, but only if it made sense. We didn't want to do things for the sake of it, and this kind of made sense!

"They needed a married couple! We watched it and were banging on the door like, 'Yes, please let us in!'"
