Freddie Powell, a standout on Perfect Match Season 3, recently contrasted his experience on the Netflix dating show with his time on Love Is Blind: UK, describing the former as more liberating and fun.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Freddie opened up about the differences between the two reality series, emphasizing the lighter atmosphere of Perfect Match. His remarks come as the showโs latest episodes (7-9) aired on August 8, 2025, introducing new singles and testing existing couples.
Freddieโs Comparison Between Perfect Match and Love Is Blind
Freddie, who originally appeared on Love Is Blind: UK, noted that while both shows were “amazing experiences,” Perfect Match allowed for more freedom. He described Love Is Blind as “very heavy,” given its intense focus on engagements and emotional stakes, whereas Perfect Match offered a more relaxed, game-like environment.
His perspective stems from the structured nature of Love Is Blind, where contestants commit to engagements without seeing each other. On Perfect Match, however, participants date openly, compete in challenges, and switch partnersโa dynamic Freddie found more enjoyable.
Freddie and Madisonโs Relationship Journey
Freddieโs most notable connection on Perfect Match has been with Madison Errichiello, a controversial figure from Love Is Blind Season 8. Despite Madisonโs reputation for manipulation, their bond appeared genuine, with Madison even calling Freddie a “unicorn” and the “first good guy” sheโs met.
Their relationship faced multiple tests, including a major twist in Episode 6 where Freddie was eliminated while Madison stayed. However, previews hinted at his return, sparking speculation about their future.
Fan Reactions and Future Prospects
Fans have been divided over Freddieโs portrayalโsome initially saw him as a “red flag” after his Love Is Blind breakup, but his Perfect Match journey has shifted opinions. Many now view him as sincere, especially given his emotional vulnerability with Madison.
With the Perfect Match Season 3 finale set for August 15, 2025, viewers are eager to see if Freddie and Madison reunite or if new drama unfolds.
Fans can watch Perfect Match on Netflix.
