Love is Blind COURTESY OF NETFLIX When a couple starts giving each other adorable nicknames, you know there’s something special brewing.
Such was the case for Love Is Blind season six duo Amber Desiree “AD” Smith and Clay Gravesande, whose chemistry was palpable right from their pod conversations. But in the rollercoaster world of Love Is Blind, their journey to the (potential) altar has been anything but straightforward, filled with surprises and drama.
Let’s dive into everything we know about “All Day” and “O-Clay” from Love Is Blind season six, including their backgrounds, current relationship status, and where they stand today.
Who are they? Smith, 33, is a real estate broker with a background as a professional dancer for the New England Patriots and Charlotte Hornets, as per her Netflix profile. Hailing from Boston, Smith captivated viewers with her emphasis on meaningful connections and genuine substance in the pods, along with her endearing personality.
Gravesande, 31, is an enterprise sales professional and entrepreneur, according to his Netflix profile. A former track star at the University of South Carolina, he boasts a track record as a six-time NCAA All-American. Among his entrepreneurial ventures is a boat and Jet Ski rental business, adding an intriguing dimension to his profile.
What unfolded on the show? Despite their inability to see each other in the pods, Smith and Gravesande undeniably sparked a connection early on. However, their initial chemistry hit a bump when Gravesande focused on discussing Smith’s physical appearance (contrary to the experiment’s premise), leading Smith to explore a connection with another contestant, Matthew Duliba.
The dynamic shifted when Smith discovered Duliba was feeding identical lines to another contestant, Amber Grant, prompting the end of that romantic pursuit—just as Gravesande began to open up emotionally. Their bond deepened as Gravesande became more vulnerable, ultimately culminating in an engagement to continue their Love Is Blind journey.
As of episode nine, Smith and Gravesande are navigating their post-engagement phase, adjusting to each other’s lifestyles. Smith grapples with Gravesande’s demanding work schedule, while Gravesande confronts lingering trauma from his parents’ infidelity.
While their journey post-engagement has seen its share of challenges, the couple appears committed to overcoming them together. The finale will reveal more!
Did they tie the knot on the show, and are they still together? The answer remains elusive, with the couple teasing viewers until the finale.
“I’d say you’ll have to wait and see,” Smith coyly remarked to Entertainment Tonight, echoed by Gravesande with a knowing “TBD.”
However, their continued mutual following on Instagram keeps fans speculating.
