Kwame Appiah is one of the contestants on the Netflix reality show Love is Blind season 4, where he forms two meaningful relationships in the pods and proposes to Chelsea Griffin. But how old is Kwame and when is his birthday?
Kwame’s Age and Zodiac Sign
According to his promotional Instagram post for Love is Blind, Kwame was 33 years old at the time of filming. That means he was born in 1990, although his exact birth date is not publicly known. However, based on another Instagram post, Kwame’s birthday is March 31st, which makes him an Aries. Aries are known for being natural leaders, adventurous, and passionate.
Kwame’s Soccer Career and Injury
Kwame is a former professional soccer player, who played since high school and eventually went on to play for the Philadelphia Fury and the Delaware Stars. He also coached some youth soccer before getting into sales. However, his soccer career came to an abrupt end in 2019, when he suffered a devastating injury while playing in Sweden. In a vulnerable post from March 2022, Kwame shared that he endured a torn ACL, MCL, and meniscus, which required two surgeries and a long recovery process. He also revealed that he struggled with depression and anxiety after the incident, but he was grateful for the support of his family and friends.
Kwame’s Current Job and Location
Kwame is currently the head of community development for a business platform called The Common Room, which helps businesses connect to their market. This job is based in Seattle, not Portland, Oregon, where he was based during filming. It is possible that he made the move for Chelsea, his fiancée on the show, but that remains to be seen. Kwame also has a professional photography site where he offers his services for weddings, events, headshots, and marketing.
