*Warning – this article contains spoilers for Love Is Blind UK season 2.*
The second series of Love Is Blind UK has been an emotional journey, with last week’s finale revealing which couples said ‘I do’ and the reunion episode last night disclosing who remains together.
At the conclusion of the Netflix programme, stunned viewers witnessed Bardha making the agonising choice to reject a devastated Jed at the altar.
Despite appearing eager to continue their romance, the reunion disclosed that the duo have subsequently parted ways.
Furthermore, tensions seemed particularly icy between the ex-partners, with Bardha informing Jed she had zero interest in seeing him again.
In an exclusive chat, the reality star opened up about the events that unfolded in the months after their wedding ceremony.

Discussing her altar rejection, Bardha mused: “It was probably the worst decision I’ve ever had to make. I didn’t want to make that decision.
“After the wedding, I went to him and I said that I wanted to keep trying. You know, I did very much love him and I wanted to make it work.”
She subsequently disclosed: “He didn’t want to… I don’t know if he didn’t want to, but he didn’t try. I was fighting a losing battle.
“If the two of you don’t put the effort in, it’s not going to work and there would have been no point.”
Bardha then proceeded to detail how an incident involving Jed’s former partner had created additional tension between them, reports the Mirror.

“About three weeks in we had an argument and he asked me to remove my ring because he saw his ex-girlfriend,” she revealed.
“And I kind of felt like she was more of a priority than me and at that point I was like ‘What am I doing? Why am I fighting for something that he obviously doesn’t want?'”.
“So I left and I went back the next day to get my things and I’ve not spoken to him since and I’ve got no desire to.
“I don’t care what he’s doing, who he’s with, if anybody, it doesn’t concern me,” she emphasised.
“He was not my person; he wasn’t the person he pretended to be. I feel like I got a lucky escape and thank god.”
In a nod to fellow contestant Patrick’s famous catchphrase, she joked: “I feel like it might have been my spleen that told me to say no, if I’m honest, but I listened and I’m so glad I made that decision.”
Meanwhile, the reunion episode full of drama also disclosed that Megan and Kieran had remained married, while Sarover and Kal and Ashleigh and Billy had decided to part ways after their weddings.
