Love Is Blind stars Colleen Reed and Matt Bolton have split following nearly four years of marriage. Fans of the show saw the couple's love blossom on the popular Netflix show during season three which aired in 2022 but now, in a shocking joint statement the pair confirmed they have broken up.
Taking to social media on Friday 23, the statement read: "We wanted to share something personal, and this is not easy to do, but after nearly four years together, we've decided to end our marriage and move forward on our own paths. "
â
They added: "We've been separated for some time now and have being our best to work through everything privately and with care."
â
The couple appeared to be one of the show's success stories but it looks as though things were not quite as smooth as it seemed.
Both Matt, 31 and Colleen, 29, told fans that their decision to call time on their marriage was not an easy one but will continue to share "love" and "respect" for one another.

Matt and Colleen's love story started when the couple first met behind a screen and got to know each other based on a number of conversations about core values and shared goals.
And it certainly did not take long before they realised they were meant to be together. In the pods, Matt then asked Colleen to marry him and it was at this point Colleen, who had never seen Matt before, said yes.
â
But their romance hit a few road blocks along the way as the pair found themselves in a number of arguments. One of which was centred around their fellow castmate Cole Barnett as she told him she would be attracted to him "in the real world."
This was also coupled with Colleen's desire to continue her social life as she enjoyed going out with friends, which was the opposite to Matt.
However, despite their differences, they decided to tie the knot. But it looked as though there was still a lot of trouble in paradise if Matt's interview with PEOPLE was anything to go by.
â
He told the publication back in November 2022: "Obviously there were a lot of conversations that you guys didn't see. Going through those, I'm glad that we did go through those little stir-ups though because it allowed us to learn how we handle certain things."
He added: "We saw so much potential, and it was just on the day of, we still didn't know. But when I saw her walking down the aisle, I was like, 'Listen, we've got too much potential'. 'This is such a great moment. We are meant for each other.' So we just had to do it. Can't pass it up."
And during the reunion show, fans noticed Colleen's unease despite talking about the strong connection they felt towards one another.
â
Addressing fan reaction, the reality TV star told Cosmopolitan magazine: "Going into the reunion, I was not in good headspace as I was dealing with a lot of anxiety due to the negative commentary I had endured during the first few episodes."
She continued: "While I knew what I had signed up for, at that point I was not prepared for the gravity of strangers critiquing my profession that I am incredibly proud of, my character, and tearing down my body/physical traits."
Another reason fans questioned the longevity of their relationship was down to the fact they had not moved in together after their wedding.

At the time she said: "To kind of adapt to now living with someone, it takes a while. It takes a second, and both of us didn't want to rush changing that, all of a sudden expediting that for other people."
