The show follows singles who hope to fall in love without ever setting their sights on potential mates. They get to know one another from remote pods, before pulling the trigger on a lifetime commitment.

"The hit reality series and social experiment that seeks to answer the very simple question: Can you fall in love sight unseen?" said Emma Willis, who co-hosts the show with husband Matt, when the British version was announced.

The U.K. joins a suite of seven other international versions of the show: Brazil, Japan, Sweden, Germany, Argentina, Mexico, UAE.

Love is Blind has aired six seasons in the U.S., yielding nine married couples who are still together.
