At the end of episode 4, "We Had Sex... Twice," of Love is Blind UK season 1, Benaiah and Nicole appear to be meeting. Earlier in the episode, we learned that Nicole broke up with Sam, but does that mean Nicole and Benaiah are getting back together?

Spoilers for Love is Blind UK season 1 episode 5!

When the pods open in Love is Blind UK season 1, Nicole and Benaiah had an immediate and undeniable connection. They seemed to share a similar outlook on life, hopes, and dreams for the future.

When things started to get a little more serious, Benaiah balked when Nicole asked if he was ready to get engaged at the end of this process. Benaiah said he wasn't quite there yet, and that opened Nicole up to her other connection: Sam.

Sam, who had been moving quickly with Jasmine before she broke up with him, suddenly seemed all in on Nicole.

Benaiah expressed his concerns about Sam's authenticity and whether he was genuinely interested in finding love in this process to Nicole, but in the end, it wasn't enough. Nicole accepted Sam's proposal, and she broke things off with Benaiah.

Unfortunately, things did not go as planned immediately after the pods. Yes, Nicole and Sam met in person, but Nicole sensed something was off. She broke things off with Sam and ended the engagement.

Nicole and Benaiah get engaged

So, Nicole arranges a meeting with Benaiah at a pub in London, and she asks to get back together with him. They haven't seen each other yet, so it's a big thing! This all happens within the first few minutes of episode 5, which is fittingly titled "I Made a Mistake."

Nicole explains what happened, why she made her decision, and apologizes to Benaiah. He accepts her apology, although he says she doesn't need to apologize. She says she made a mistake, and she opens the door to get back together.

Benaiah explains how difficult it's been since everything happened for him. He not only accepts Nicole's offer to get back together, but Benaiah takes it a step further. He proposes to Nicole on the spot!

He also realized that his indecision or not reciprocating his feelings in the pods is at least some part of why Nicole made the mistake of choosing Sam in the first place.

Luckily, Nicole accepts his proposal. They're officially engaged within the first few minutes of episode 5, and it's clear that all is right in the world of Love is Blind UK.

Then, the couple jets off to Corfu to meet up with all of the other couples, who get quite the shock when Nicole walks in with Benaiah and not Sam. They all knew that Nicole and Sam were engaged, and they'd been wondering and speculating about what happened.

It's clear from the moment Nicole and Benaiah arrive that everyone is excited for them to be there.

Will Nicole and Benaiah actually get married? Well, we'll have to watch to find out!

The final two episodes of Love is Blind UK season 1 will be released on Wednesday, Aug. 21.
