In a clip teasing the Love is Blind episodes on social media, Cat and Freddie’s relationship appears to amp up as they discuss their home life and loved ones and even discover some mind boggling similarities!

Can we get a DNA test done before we go any further?

Although some may say their previous compatibility has been superficial, these coincidences just don’t add up. Cat revealed her middle name to Freddie, explaining she was named Mary in honour of her grandmother. Freddie then exclaims that his nana is also called Mary, sparking Cat to become emotional.

The couple were then left shook as they discovered both their grandads were also called Bill. A teary-eyed Cat exclaimed: “Stop,” as Freddie admitted: “I’ve got goosebumps.”

Funeral director Freddie said: “I don’t believe you. I’ve got goosebumps.”

He also expressed: “Oh what the hell! Are you joking. That’s mad.”

Dental nurse Cat admitted: “I’m really in shock.”

However, Netflix fans were more worried than amazed by the touching moment. One said to social media: “Just know the producers are gonna do a true crime documentary style flashback to Catherine saying, ‘Freddie makes me feel like family’ when these two figure out they’re cousins.”

Another said: “We’re soulmates!… Me: Or we’re cousins!…. Can we get a DNA test done before we go any further? Haha.”

A third added: “Can’t wait for them to find out they’re actually first cousins at the reveal.”

A fourth stated: “No way they’re cousins. Don’t the show peeps check for that?”

A fifth chimed in: “Major twist, they’re cousins???”

“I hope one of them questions if they’re related otherwise,” remarked another.

Although some viewers did try and calm the outcry, by acknowledging that this could be a complete coincidence.

“To be fair, it is the UK. Chances of their grandparents both being named William and Mary were fairly good,” assured one.

“I’m sure the show does background checks to make sure nobody is related and they know that,” theorised another.

Meanwhile, Cat seems especially smitten as she told viewers that Freddie is charming and that she loves his sense of humour. Uh-oh!
