Popular dating show Love Is Blind UK has returned for season 2, with viewers sitting down to watch the first four episodes of the Netflix series.

While fans have already declared themselves “obsessed” with the latest season, some have also taken to social media to call out one contestant for his ‘red flag’ behaviour.

We are introduced to ‘deeply spiritual’ contestant Patrick in episode 1, where he begins to explore a connection with 29-year-old singer Aanu.

Patrick, 33, who describes himself as a ‘human design coach’ speaks a lot about “following his spleen” in his search for love.

According to Netflix’s Tudum: “Deeply spiritual Patrick is guided by his spleen — yes, you read that correctly. He’ll be relying on the organ to let him know if he’s met the right woman, even through a wall.

“Patrick ended his longest relationship because he didn’t know himself well enough, but after putting in the work and feeling secure about himself once again, love is what he’s after.”

Reacting to the bizarre concept and Patrick’s constant references to his spleen, fans took to social media to express their doubts about the wellness professional.

Posting a gif on X of someone running by holding a giant red flag, one person questioned: “Patrick is a ‘Life coach’?”

“Can someone tell him to stop mentioning the spleen,” another pleaded, as a third lamented: “I never want to hear the word spleen again in my entire life.”

“The moment that guy talked about following his spleen, I would have been out of there,” another admitted, as one more simply wrote: “Minister of Spleen is just cringe go away.”

Another fan was particularly unimpressed, tweeting: “Please the word ‘spleen’ is just making me cringe and feel physically sick. How many times are we going to have to hear this nonsense?”

However, some fans supported Patrick, with one writing: "I loveee Patrick, do you know how nice you have to be for me to ignore the fact you keep mentioning your spleen??"

"Episode 1 and patrick and aanu are taking it idc idc idc," another wrote, as a third praised: "I absolutely love Patrick and his spleen."

In episode one Patrick speaks about his spleen in detail, explaining: “I have this thing where I follow my spleen.

“It might sound a bit weird but it’s even more potent than your gut, and you follow it literally to the second.

“As soon as you have that feeling something’s going to be good or bad, you just trust it. Listening to my spleen is the best way for me to find the love of my life.”

It seems Patrick also left some of his pod dates perplexed by his ‘spleen’ chat, with one looking unsure as she replied: “Oh… How interesting… Okay.”

Meanwhile, Aanu seems keen to get to know Patrick - and his spleen - but will the pair make it past the pods? Keep watching to find out.

Love Is Blind UK season 2 arrives on Netflix tomorrow, August 13.
