They attempted to find the loves of their lives by dating sight unseen. 

Yet Love Is Blind stars AD Smith and Ollie Sutherland found another unconventional way of falling in love as they reveal they’d fallen in love appearing on a spin-off show.

AD, 34, who appeared in season six of the US Love Is Blind and Ollie, 32, who starred in the debut UK season, announced their engagement on Sunday during the season eight reunion show. 

The couple met while filming Perfect Match last year, a series that features contestants from other Netflix reality shows who pair up and compete in challenges. 

Filming for the show wrapped in September, with the couple keeping their relationship a surprise until now. 

Love Is Blind host Vanessa Lachey was left in tears as she revealed the news by sharing a video of Ollie proposing to AD in a romantic beach setting.

Vanessa introduced the happy couple by announcing AD was appearing on the reunion show to open up about the happy relationship she had teased during the Love Is Blind season seven reunion last October. 

The show then aired a promo clip for Perfect Match before cutting to the proposal video as co-host Nick Lachey exclaimed: ‘there’s more?’ 

‘You’re my best friend, you’re the love of my life. I’ve never felt as happy as I have since I’ve met you,’ Ollie said as he got down on one knee and offered up a ring. 

‘Nothing would make me happier than spending the rest of my life loving you.’

A squealing AD then leant in for a kiss as she agreed to marry him.

Despite filming only wrapping in September last year, Ollie revealed he had been planning the proposal ‘for months’. 

Vanessa was left in tears as she watched the proposal unfold, with Virginia Miller also breaking down. 

Vanessa explained: ‘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.’

She then asked: ‘Do you think Love Is Blind preps you for this because you both had the common goal of wanting to find that person?’ to which they agreed their conversations had been deep and meaningful from the start.
