Stella Mickunaite and Filip Gregov were the final participants to wed on Married at First Sight Australia in 2026, in the hopes of finding their soulmates.
Since their fairytale wedding, the couple has continued to go from strength to strength.
There’s even rumours swirling that the pair are engaged!
Read more about their relationship and find out if they’re still together below.
Friends and Family Week
It’s no surprise that the pair are still in the experiment, given their chemistry and aligned values.
However, Stella raised eyebrows during Friends and Family Week, when she revealed her thoughts about a significant relationship milestone.
After their friends said they loved seeing their chemistry, when asked if they had said “I love you” to one another, Stella and Filip admitted that they hadn’t.
“We’re tiptoeing around, it’s definitely there, we have a solid base,” Filip told their loved ones. Having not said it for six years, he revealed that he wanted it to be the right moment.
But for Stella, she said he needed to take the lead and say it first.
After their successful catch-up, they reflected on the unsaid, admitting that they had shown it without saying it.
Despite this, Stella insisted that she would keep quiet about it “until it’s time”.
The first Commitment Ceremony
While they spoke about their happiness, Stella then raised eyebrows when she said she wanted to protect their intimacy.
When John pressed her about it, she revealed that not all of the couples have been happy about their romance.
When asked again, she revealed that some of the brides questioned if their relationship was authentic, which rubbed Brook and Gia the wrong way.
“It was some of the comments of we’re looking at baby names and already falling in love with each other that seemed full on,” Gia clarified.
“I guess that it’s kind of sad that at the age of 32, I have to re-learn that not everyone is wishing you happiness,” Stella continued.
Brook then accused Stella of playing the victim, which made the other brides interject.
Despite the chaos, when asked by John, Stella admitted that if they continue to grow, Filip could be her soulmate.
Unsurprisingly, the couple chose to stay.
Even though the commitment ceremony finished after their couch session, Stella and Brook continued to clash, with Brook calling her a “fool”.
As they walked away, Stella tried to talk things through, but Brook did not want a bar of it.
What happened at Filip and Stella’s wedding?
After their wedding caused a stir with Stella’s friends, the couple revealed more about their connection.
“I’ve dated Aussie men in the past, and I noticed a massive difference in values,” Stella told the Daily Mail.
“I often felt misunderstood and judged for wanting to build more in life. Connecting with a man whose family background is the same as mine was a beautiful surprise. I felt seen, I felt heard. It laid a really strong base for everything that followed.”
Filip also shared similar sentiments with the publication, saying he knew it was different with Stella.
“When I saw how in tune Stella was with her family and emotions, I thought, ‘Here we go. We’re aligned,” he said.
That made watching their wedding on TV incredibly special.
“I couldn’t stop crying watching it back,” Stella reflected.
“It was such an amazing day. All the right people were there, the energy was right, and the venue was incredible. I just felt super blessed.”
While sparks instantly flew between the pair because of their mutual attraction and shared values, Filip’s vows alarmed Stella’s loved ones.
As he shared his hopes for their relationship, the carpenter, who used to be a party boy, revealed that he also provides online health coaching and has a YouTube channel. The coaching has become an outlet for him since he changed his ways.
Despite Stella, who left Lithuania for a better life in Australia, resonating with Filip’s story of his parents relocating from Croatia, her friend Joe was not as impressed.
“I’m waving the red flag,” he shared, questioning his true intentions for going on the show.
Her friends agreed that it was an “ick” and said it made him sound like he was promoting himself.
Even though Joe approached the groom’s friends and grilled them about his intentions, he was still not convinced.
Watching it back, Filip told the Daily Mail that he stood by the way he conducted himself.
“What I thought was just a passing comment got blown into something massive,” he told the publication.
“Joe definitely let everyone know his concerns. They didn’t know me from a bar of soap.”
Her friends raised their eyebrows when he refused to fully participate in a Lithuanian wedding tradition.
During weddings, Lithuanians drink a shot of vodka, which represents joy, have dark rye, which represents hardship, and sprinkle salt, which symbolises abundance.
“I don’t drink, I just don’t do that, and the reason why I don’t do that is that I tell people not to do that,” the groom shared with his bride, explaining that he teaches others to be sober, and it wouldn’t be good for his brand.
While Stella respected his decision, her friends grew concerned and wanted to share their harsh truths.
The Lithuanian bride took it on board, and looking back on it, she said their comments made her hold back in the beginning.
“I was taken aback,” she said. “I went from the clouds back to the earth very quickly.”
“I had to put my blinkers on because at the end of the day, I didn’t know this man. My mind would still go back to that fear even when things were going right,” she told the Daily Mail.
However, her best friend Leila decided to confront Filip directly.
“It’s just that boast, do you get what I mean?” she asked on the show about him mentioning his online work, and he disagreed.
While he tried assuring her, he did not appreciate the judgement he felt, but she wasn’t interested in hearing it.
“No, you are getting worked up, I can feel it,” Leila insisted, even though he remained calm. “You’re agitated.”
“I hope you prove me wrong,” she continued.
“I still have my guard up, we’re not going to have one conversation, and he’s in the clear,” her best friend said. “Because you can’t just get me that quick.”
“Ultimately, I am here for Stella, I care what Stella thinks,” Filip said, and then assured her that he had Stella’s back.
