Ajay Cheema and Ciara Murphy seemed like an unlikely pair when they began talking to each other in the pods. While the former was calmer and quieter in his demeanor, the latter was more outgoing and playful. Perhaps that is what drew them to each other in Netflix’s ‘Love is Blind: UK’ season 3. They balanced their opposing energies, and even when things got tough for them, they reminded themselves of the great love they had found and worked to fix things rather than walk away.
Ciara and Ajay Bonded Over Shared Beliefs, Goals, and Values
When Ajay Cheema first spoke to Ciara Murphy in the pods, he quickly decided she would be his top choice. He held back from telling her because she was pursuing other connections. Ciara was also in conversation with Jack Bradshaw, and things had grown between them. In fact, after one of their dates, when Jack came back and said that he and Ciara were each other’s top choices, Ajay was disappointed. However, Ciara soon realized that Ajay was the perfect partner for her, and she told him so. He was over the moon, and just a few dates later, he proposed. Things at the retreat were not the easiest for them, especially with the lingering tension between Ciara and Jack. She had warned Jack’s chosen partner, Faye Domaille, about him. Ajay was a grounding presence for her, and she was ever so grateful for it.
In the real world, Ciara playfully suggested she would lie back and enjoy being served by him, and he gave in to it fully. However, he was clear with her about changing his job and not being as frivolous with money as he had been. He said that it would take time for him to find his proper footing. Ciara was very understanding of this, but soon an argument broke out. Ajay had told her that his parents were not comfortable being filmed, and he felt that instead of being sympathetic, she had pushed him further and further. It left him unsure about what that meant for them. Ajay also felt that their date had been expensive and wondered what the expectations for future dates would be.
Ciara quickly turned to her friends and accepted that she had been unreasonable. She admitted that she wanted to be with Ajay but had unintentionally been testing him by pushing his limits. She accepted this in front of him as well, and they were able to move forward with a better understanding of who they were as people. When Ajay’s parents came to visit, they were happy to see him with Ciara. Shortly after, Ciara organized a small Diwali celebration at home for herself and Ajay to show him that she fully appreciated him and wanted to be part of his home. It really showed how much she cared for him. Their love triumphed over everything they had been through, and they said yes to each other.
Ciara and Ajay are Happily Living as a Married Couple
Ajay and Ciara have had the perfect example of a relationship filled with ups and downs. The fact that they matched each other so closely from the start said a lot, but over time, they handled their issues very delicately. Ajay never doubted standing beside his fiancée in any capacity, and she, in turn, admitted when it was her mistake. This really helped them grow that trust and fondness for each other. Ciara and Ajay, soon after their wedding, decided to go to Australia for six months. The move gave them a chance to spend more time with one another, communicate more and build a solid foundation for their future.
They had some really fun-filled days together before returning to their life in London. Ciara also opened up about how intense and emotionally challenging the experience had been for her. She leaned on Ajay when talking about it became difficult, and he stood up for his wife when some of her decisions were questioned by other cast members. The couple has said that they are planning an Indian wedding and are looking forward to celebrating their relationship with their families as well.
