Maria Love Is Blind: UK
She is one of the cast members of the reality TV dating show “Love Is Blind: UK”, which premiered on August 7, 2024, on Netflix. Maria is outgoing and always speaks her mind and knows exactly what she wants in a partner. She seeks an “alpha male” who desires a traditional relationship. However, she says that this guy must live up to her late dad, who she sees as the “definition of a protector” – any guy entering her life has to measure up to those big shoes.
The show follows 15 single women (Maria being one of them) and 15 single men from the United Kingdom who are looking for love. For 10 days, they date each other in special “pods” where they can talk but not see each other. They start with speed dating and then choose to have longer dates. A marriage proposal can be made at any time, and couples meet face-to-face only after a proposal is accepted. The engaged couples then spend a week at a resort getting to know each other and meeting the other couples. Afterward, they move to the same apartment complex for three weeks, meet each other’s friends and families, and plan their weddings. At the end of four weeks, they decide at the altar whether or not to get married.
