Love Is Blind UK fans are just realising where they've seen one star before
One star has appeared on TV screens before
Love Is Blind UK fans are discovering where they've seen one star before as Season 2 returns to screens.
The popular dating show returned to screens earlier this month after its huge success last year. But Love Is Blind UK fans are having to wait to find out what happens as the episodes are released in batches each week.
Today, August 20, saw episodes five to eight released, which sees the newly engaged couples navigating their lives together, but will they face any hurdles along the way? Fans will have to wait until August 27 to find out what happens in the final two episodes.
As fans binge watch the latest episodes, there's one star that viewers may recognise, who has been seen on screens before. Yolanda, 26, from Hampshire is the youngest in the experiment, but is more than ready for marriage.
The star is a self professed adrenaline junkie, and at 15 even found herself in a coma after she walked into a window. But Yolanda has been seen on screens before, and even has links to a famous star.
Yolanda has links to Love Island 2024 winner Mimii Tafara, who made history last year on the ITV2 show with Josh. She even appeared on the spin-off show Aftersun to talk about Mimii while she was still in the villa.
Yolanda and Mimii were also seen on the Boots UK YouTube channel for the Christmas Gift Swap video several months ago. The caption for the video, posted on December 13, 2024, reads: "Join Mimii and her cousin Yolanda as they pick out some of the best beauty and fragrance gifts from Boots this Christmas! Plus, find out which must have product Mimii used in the Love Island Villa!"
Yolanda is also active on her own social media, with a large TikTok following, often sharing clips of her own life. Taking to her Instagram to share the Love Is Blind UK casting news, Yolanda wrote: "SURPRISE. From 50 First Dates to Love Is Blind UK I really took my dating life to Netflix.
"As the youngest in the experiment, I stepped into the pods with an open heart and no clue what was coming… Catch all the tea and post-show madness on TikTok: @simply_yolandita Mr Right … are you out there."
And the support came pouring in as Mimii herself wrote: "Can't wait!!!!" Some fans even said they were tuning in to the latest series to watch their favourite star.
Over on TikTok, Yolanda has been no stranger to sharing details on her love life to her 22.4k followers. She even shared clips after going on "50 first dates".
In one video recently, the star shared a clip of her dancing as the text read: "Me fully embracing my destiny as the hot single auntie."
But how was Yolanda's Love Is Blind UK journey? Fans can tune in to find out as eight out of the ten episodes are available to stream on Netflix now.
