" Love Is Blind: UK " contestant Sam Klein is at the center of the show's first controversy, and fans are already criticizing his behavior on social media.

Netflix released the first season of "Love Is Blind: UK" on Wednesday, the latest spin-off of the hugely popular " Love Is Blind ."

During the first few episodes, where contestants date each other in isolated pods where they can't see who they are talking two, Sam initially bonds with two women: Jasmine and Nicole.

When Jasmine rejects him in episode two, he turns his attention to Nicole. Meanwhile, Nicole also has a growing connection with Benaiah, but she is worried he isn't ready to commit.

Though she has doubts about how genuine Sam is, Nicole chooses him over Benaiah, and Sam proposes to her. In episode four, Sam and Nicole finally meet in person for the proposal, but Nicole accidentally puts the ring on the wrong finger.

Nicole doesn't make a big deal out of it at the time, but backs out of the engagement later in the episode.

"When I took the ring, I placed it on the wrong finger," Nicole said. "He didn't notice. I think now I look back in hindsight, that was a sign that it just wasn't right."

Sam said: "My connection with Nicole in the pods was unbelievably strong. It was deep-rooted, like nothing I've ever experienced in the outside world but the door's closed, and it was bizarre.

"I started to realize something was off, something wasn't right."
