But embarrassingly for producers, Daily Mail Australia yesterday revealed that every single couple from the show has split and parted wats long before the reunion was even filmed.
Worse still, many of this season's biggest stars skipped out on the finale episode.
Bill Goldsmith gave proceedings a wide berth after his reportedly nasty split with Alex Nation, while Richie Strahan, Cass Wood, Cat Henesey-Smith and Elora Murger were also notably absent.
The result is disastrous for Channel 10 executives as rival Channel 9 experiment Married At First Sight produced two successful couples from this year's season.
