Congratulations are in order for Love Is Blind US star Amber Desiree 'AD' Smith and Love Is Blind UK's Ollie Sutherland who are expecting a baby.

The duo shared the news in an adorable IG video back in May, and AD has been sharing her pregnancy updates via her social media accounts in the weeks since then.

So, how did this cute af couple meet, and what has their relationships timeline been?

Well, the duo met on season 3 of Perfect Match - a dating show which brings together alumni from other dating shows - and the spark was instant.

But while Perfect Match season 3 only dropped on Netflix on 1 August, we've been aware of the couple's undeniable chemistry, and coupled-up status, for some time. The duo appeared on the Love Is Blind season 8 reunion episode back in March, where they revealed some pretty major news.

During the reunion, the pair spoke about what they've been up to, with AD, 33, speaking about her new podcast What's the Reality? and their appearance on season 3 of Perfect Match, which is expected to air later this year.

They then introduced a promo video for the (then unreleased) season of the Netflix show. However, the video didn't end there as it went on to show a separate clip of Ollie leading AD to another section of the beach and surprising her with a romantic proposal - exciting!

Literally heartwarming. As the couple prepare for parenthood, read on for everything you need to know about their relationship history, including how they met and who they were engaged to on their respective seasons.

AD and Ollie meet in Mexico to film season 3 of Netflix's Perfect Match and later fuel romance rumours when they're spotted enjoying a romantic dinner together in Mexico.

It comes after Ollie appeared on the first season of Love Is Blind UK which aired in the UK in August 2024.

During his time on the show, Ollie proposed to Demi Brown in the pods and the pair seemed to be on track for marriage. That is, until she said no at the altar, explaining afterwards that Ollie was a "good guy, but not my guy". At the reunion, Ollie revealed that he was dating Sharlotte, who he'd got to know in the pods.

AD took part in the sixth season of Love Is Blind US and was engaged to Clay Gravesande. However, when it came to their wedding day, Clay wasn't ready to commit. While she said "I do", he admitted: "I don't think it's responsible for me to say 'I do'."

Ollie and AD appeared on the Love Is Blind season 8 reunion together and announced their engagement.

When called up to the stage, the pair filled viewers in on their lives and their appearance on Perfect Match. They then introduced a clip from the upcoming season, which went on to show the two of them walking together on a beach.

As they walked hand-in-hand, Ollie could be heard asking a confused AD if she's comfortable.

"What's going on?" she asked as he led her over to a floral decoration.

Ollie then got down on one knee, before saying: "You’re my best friend. You’re the love of my life. I’ve never felt as happy or as complete as I have since I met you, and nothing would make me happier than to spend the rest of my life loving you. Amber Desiree Smith, will you marry me?"

You can watch the engagement below (grab tissues):

We thought this couple couldn't get cuter but they just did!

Taking to Instagram, the duo shared a beautiful video of themselves walking hand-in-hand and lovingly glancing at one another.

What initially looked like an official engagement video turned out to be a pregnancy announcement video, as AD turned around in Ollie's arms and the couple placing their hands on her swollen belly to indicate that they were expecting.

In the comments section, there was (rightfully) an outpouring of love and congratulations for the couple.

We love these two!
