Lauren did a runner on their wedding night, leaving Andrew all alone with no idea what had happened. She apologised, but he couldn’t forgive her.

Determined to give love a chance, Cheryl and Andrew rejoined the experiment as a couple. They were thrown into the deep end of the experiment having to jump right into the home stays.

Called it quits before the end of the show. 

Jo and Sean D

The couple didn’t go the distance and quit the show. 

Davina and Ryan

Between the first and second commitment ceremonies, Davina started a secret flirtationship with Dean. At the dinner party, Davina hooked up with Dean, leading her to write “leave” at the second commitment ceremony. Ryan had written “stay”, so the couple had to stay another week. He eventually found out, and the pair left the show.

Charlene and Patrick

At their final decision they said they would stay together. In March 2018, the couple announced they had split up.

Season six (2019)

Jules and Cameron

They made it! Jules and Cam were a hit with fans and regarded as the least drama-fuelled couple from the get-go, who seemed to have joined the show for all the ‘right reasons’: namely, to find love. The loved-up couple are set to marry for real next week. 

Nic and Cyrell

Their relationship was always rocky, but everyone wanted the pair to make it as a couple. After cheating rumours and an altercation between Cyrell and Martha, they called time on their relationship and left during the sixth commitment ceremony, on good terms – thankfully.

Cyrell began a relationship with Eden Dally, runner-up of Love Island Australia, earlier this year. The couple are currently expecting their first child together

Jessika and Mick

Jessika messed Mick around until the final moments in order to stay in the experiment and see how things went with newcomer Dan. After coming clean to Mick the pair split, and Jess eventually re-entered the experiment with Dan. 

Dino and Melissa

There was never much of a spark, and after various altercations the pair called it quits before the end of the season. 

Mark and Ning

Week after week Mark tried to get to the ‘real’ Ning, but she’d been hurt in the past and was unwilling to open up. They made inroads and got as far as the final vows, and while Ning saw that there was a future with Mark, Mark saw otherwise, stating he “Haven’t found it with you”, which saw her heartbroken.

Mike and Heidi

They were hot for each other from the start, but things eventually unravelled and by the Final Vows, while they committed to each other, they’d broken up by the reunion.

Sam and Elizabeth

Oh, where to start?! Sam ditched his bride before the honeymoon and then Elizabeth went awol not long after. Sam eded up having a secret affair with Ines, which he denied until the end. Sam and Elizabeth didn’t make it to the final ceremony – and neither did Sam and Ines. 

Lauren and Matthew

Matthew was she show’s ‘first virgin’, which meant the pressure was on for Lauren for their first time. After popping his cherry, the pair drifted apart and were the first to leave the experiment. 

Bronson and Ines

Ines wasn’t keen on Bronson from the get-go, and made that perfectly clear to anyone who would listen. Before long, she and Sam struck up an attraction and Ines kept an ignorant Bronson in the show so she could spend time with Sam. 

Bronson was left completely in the dark until Sam blew the cover wide open at the third commitment ceremony. Safe to say, Bronson and Ines didn’t make it to the end. And her ‘relationship’ with Sam was short-lived, too. 

Michael and Martha

The unconventional couple gave things a red-hot go on the show, leaving the experiment together. After overcoming the hurdles of living in different cities their relationship is still going strong. They recently celebrated their one year anniversary together. 

Susie and Billy

Talk about a mismatch! The intruder couple argued their way through each week, eventually calling it quits at the sixth commitment ceremony.

Susie is currently in a relationship with NRL player Todd Carney. 

Dan and Tamara

The second intruder couple started well, but Dan’s head was soon turned by Jessika. Dan and Jess then both decided to stay in the experiment with their respective partners, so that they could spend more time together behind their backs. 

Jessika and Dan

After blindsiding their partners Mick and Tamara that they’d been seeing each other behind their backs, Dan and Jess asked to be allowed to stay on as a new couple. They initially seemed to have found love with each other and left the experiment as a couple. 

However, once the season had aired, Dan saw sides to Jessika that he didn’t like, and the pair split live on TV during an interview on Talking Married.
