Love Is Blind season 2 release date: Cast and latest news for Netflix series
Everything you need to know about Love Is Blind season 2. **WARNING: Contains spoilers about Love is Blind season 2 couples**
Following the mega popular first series, Love Is Blind is back for a second series.
This February, 30 singletons will try out the famous pods and see if they can find a deep connection with someone – without ever seeing them.
They'll have to get engaged if they want to meet one another and will then test out their relationship in the real world before their big day, which will be scheduled for just four weeks later.
When the first series aired on Netflix in 2020, viewers were completely captivated.
Hosted by celebrity couple Nick and Vanessa Lachey, the 11 episodes saw blind dating being taken to a whole new level, as 30 singles, 15 men and 15 women, communicated with the aim of getting engaged. However, during the dates, the contestants weren't allowed to see who they were talking to.
The second series was confirmed all the way back in 2020, so it's been some time in the making, and the first batch of episodes have now landed on Netflix.
Read on for everything you need to know about Love Is Blind season two, including when you can watch new episodes on Netflix, who's in the cast, and which couples put a ring on it and will be getting married on the show.
Love is Blind season 2 release date
Love is Blind season 2 arrived on Netflix on Friday 11th February. Episodes were made available to stream from 8am BST.
Shortly after the first season arrived, Netflix renewed the dating show for not just a second season but a third as well!
The streamer announced the season two news in March 2020 in Twitter with a screen grab of Amber from season one.
It's looking very likely that fans could see a lot more of the wild dating show on Netflix, as the show's creator Chris Coelen wants 11 more seasons.
Speaking to Oprahmag.com, Coelen said: "I want to see a season 2 or a season 12. Don't you?" before admitting he could see the show running for 15 or 20 seasons.
When will new Love is Blind episodes arrive on Netflix?
Season two is being uploaded to Netflix in batches, with the first five episodes available to stream from Friday, 11th February.
The next set of episodes, which will show the couples meeting one another's families, and their big days, will follow weekly.

What happened in Love is Blind season 1?
The couples seemed to be at very different stages of their relationship by the end of episode five.
While Lauren and Cameron, Amber and Barnett and Kenny and Kelly seemed to be going very smoothly, there was a little bit of drama for the other couples.
Initially, Damian didn’t want to tell Giannina why he was happy to “escape” home life, which bothered her.
However, he eventually confided in her and it seems to have brought them closer.
Things weren’t going too well between Jessica and Mark either, as Jessica was struggling to get past her connection with Barnett, who she’d previously been getting to know.
She also removed her engagement ring because she wasn’t sure about their future, however, still wants to give her relationship with Mark a go.
Meanwhile, Carlton and Diamond were the first couple to leave the show way before filming finished in episode four, after an argument made them realise they weren't right for each other.
Nevertheless, the couple were sent on a romantic trip to Mexico, and then made to test out their relationships in the real world by living together and planning their upcoming nuptials.
Their wedding days finally came in episode 10, but it wasn't a happy ending for everyone, with only Amber and Barnett and Cameron and Lauren making down the aisle and leaving the show as husband and wife.
