Viewers were keen to know more about her after watching the show, but many were left horrified after unearthing a picture from a 2014 hunting trip of Amber posing with a dead deer.
Dressed in camouflage gear, Amber is seen holding the head of the deer up towards the camera while crouching down next to it.
She captioned the shot: “FINALLY saw a deer… Which naturally also means I got my first kill.
” She might not be real big, but she’s not real small either. Victoryyyy! #grinninlikeajackasseatinbriars #bouttime #crackshot #firstdeer #oneshotonekill.”

A second picture saw Amber pose for a selfie with the dead deer in the back of the truck, the gun shot wound visible in its side.
Amber stuck her tongue out and struck a ‘rock on’ pose with her hand, writing in the caption: “Deer selfie!! #sostoked #bouttime #crackshot #firstdeer #oneshotonekill.”
But her posts – despite being nearly six years old – still caused outrage among her new followers, with one writing: “poor animal”.
Another shared: “How can you think this is ok!!!! Where is the compassion. Karma is a b***h.”

A third was equally angry, writing: “This pic hurt me too… It’s horrible ! how can you feel happy about the barbarity you did.”
Love Is Blind sees 30 men and women try to find love without actually meeting, spending 10 days in a speed dating format where they date in different pods, but cannot see each other.
While they can talk, they can’t see each other, but once Amber and Matt met they continued to go from strength to strength and ended up tying the knot at the end of the series.
Love Is Blind is available to stream on Netflix now.
