Why did Amber and Matthew leave Love Is Blind? Season 6 exits explained

Two contestants who weren't present at the reunion, however, were Matthew and Amber.

The pair quit the process way before the couple's retreat in Mexico, after it was revealed that Matthew had been telling both AD and Amber the same things.

Amber left first and Matthew decided to go after her.

So, what happened with Amber and Matthew? Did they ever get together outside of the show? And why wasn't Matthew at the reunion despite being invited?

Read in for everything you need to know.

Why did Amber and Matthew leave Love Is Blind?

During the dating process, senior financial advisor Matthew, 37, formed connections with both real estate broker AD, 33, and medical device sales worker Amber, 31.

It then became apparent that he was telling both women the same things.

First, he told AD that he wanted to ask her father if he could marry her, and she revealed that her dad had passed away.

Back in the women's quarters, AD then heard Amber telling some of the other girls that Matthew said he wanted to ask her dad for her hand in marriage.

This got AD's back up, and when she questioned Matthew about it the next time they spoke, he said that he'd leave with her right there and then if it came to it.

She then told Amber about this conversation, at which point the 31-year-old said that she was done with the experiment, as her "worst fear" had been realised.

During AD and Matthew's next conversation, she revealed to him that Amber had left. He responded by telling AD that he needed to go after Amber and also left, putting an end to things with him and AD.

Matthew has since spoken out about how he was portrayed on the show, saying that he thinks he was "misrepresented".

"[The] key element of my story that was never disclosed is that I live an alcohol-free lifestyle and did the experiment sober," he said in an Instagram comment. "It was a key factor in why I had so much difficulty connecting with women in the beginning."

"I look forward to telling my side of the story with the full truth at the appropriate time," he added.

In one scene, Matthew could be seen walking out during a date with one of the women, however, he insists he “never walked out when a woman was talking".

Will Amber and Matthew return to Love Is Blind?

Unfortunately neither Amber nor Matthew returned to the later episodes of Love Is Blind. Other cast members who didn't get engaged in the pods, such as Jessica, Trevor and Sarah Ann did return, however.

Are Love Is Blind's Amber and Matthew together?

It's not clear whether Matthew and Amber actually got together after both leaving the show.

As soon as we know more, we'll update you.

Is Matthew on the Love Is Blind season 6 reunion?

Unfortunately not. During the reunion, the hosts revealed that Matthew was invited to the reunion but politely declined.

We do know, however, that he briefly reconnected with AD after filming the Netflix show.

During the special, she revealed that they went on two dates and she found him "cute", but things eventually fizzled out because they were incompatible and wanted different things.

"We live two completely different lifestyles," she said.
