In particular let’s give them props for the casting of Ollie. The self-proclaimed Craig David look alike has been giving main character energy all season long.
From his love triangle with Cat and Demi, to his very awkward conversation with Jasmine, to his wholehearted love and energy towards Demi, it’s been a joy watching him on screen.
But what else do we need to know about Ollie? Well here’s all the essential info you need to know.
How old is Ollie?
Ollie is 32 years old.

Why did Ollie go on Love Is Blind UK?
When we first meet Ollie on Love Is Blind UK episode one, he told the cameras he had previously been told he “tends to date ‘with his eyes'” and so he was looking forward to going on the experiment “to flip dating on its head”.
He then added that he thought he was in the best place yet in his life so it was the right time to enter the experiment.
“I’m at the age where I know myself better than ever, I’m in the best place I’ve ever been. So I think a long term partner would be the one to complete the picture.”
Who did Ollie make connections with in Love Is Blind UK?
So who is going to be Ollie’s long term partner? Well in the pods, he made connections with two women, Cat and Demi. However, after a few dates with Cat he began to think their connection was more of a flirty physical connection (despite not seeing each other) and so focused all his energy on Demi. And it worked out for the best as he ended up proposing in episode four.
The couple travelled to Corfu where they ran into some difficulties over their relationship. Ollie found himself at the receiving end on a lot of questions from Jasmine about how his feelings for Demi. After the interrogation Ollie found himself getting (understandably) overwhelmed at the whole experience and wanted to leave. However, he thankfully stayed in Corfu with Demi.
When the couple returned from the retreat and they moved in together, and it’s here where they really shone as a couple. They cooked vegan nachos for Demi’s friends who seemed to like Ollie, Ollie met Demi’s parents and got her dad’s approval, and crucially Ollie about up about his ADHD which he revealed he usually keeps private from partners.
Now, will they make it down the aisle?
