Love is Blind's Danielle Ruhl 'files for divorce from Nick Thompson' 1 year after wedding

Love is Blind star Danielle Ruhl has reportedly filed for divorce from Nick Thompson, who she married on the show just over a year ago.

The pair tied the knot on season 2 of the hit US Netflix show in June last year, after falling in love without seeing what each other looked like.

They were only one of two couples to wed on the show, but it seems their romance is at an end.

TMZ reports that documents show Danielle filed for divorce on Monday in Cook County Circuit Court in Illinois.

Less than a month ago Danielle posted a flurry of loved-up pictures on Instagram, showing the pair kissing and staring lovingly into each other's eyes while on an idyllic beach.

She discussed the couple's future in an interview with US Weekly last month, revealing they had plans to hold a second wedding, and teased the possibility of starting a family one day.

"At either our two, or three-year anniversary, we really wanna redo a reception, to make sure all of our families can be there,' she said.

"Like, I’ve always dreamt of my dream wedding and wedding planning and a bachelorette party. And so we’re redoing all of that. It’s just like when we have the time," Danielle added.

Speaking about kids, she said: "We got married really quickly and so it’s not anywhere in the cards for the next two years.

"I can’t wait to have kids to embarrass the heck out of both Nick and them. Like, I can't wait."

Danielle said she knew Nick "was the person I was going to be with", during a joint interview with her husband in April.

Nick, who famously left a long pause before saying "I do", added: "Getting married is a big step and something that is very important to the both if us. I guess I just wanted to be sure. But I was sure. There was no question."

Jarrette Jones and Iyanna McNeely, The only other couple who walked down the aisle on season 2 of Love Is Blind, have also split.

The pair confirmed the news in a post on Instagram earlier this week, saying lives go in "different directions."

“After much thought, we’re saddened to share that we have separated and will begin the process of divorcing,” the pair said.

“While we have love for each other, our lives are going in different directions and that’s OK. Coming to this decision was far from easy and we will always wish each other the absolute best.”

The statement continued: “We hope you all will give us some space as we close this chapter of our lives. Thank you to our close friends and family for loving us both through our experience.

"To the Love Is Blind family and Netflix, thank you for this unforgettable opportunity and support.”

The Mirror has approached Danielle's reps for comment.
