They're the Married At First Sight UK stars we didn't see recoupling but series eight's Hannah Norburn and Ryan Livesey sent fans and their co-stars WILD amid rumours they were dating.

During the spa weekend it came to light that Hannah was rubbing Ryan's feet or shoes (depending on who you ask) and it ruffled his wife Sionainn Carmichael and co-stars Holly Ditchfield and Polly Sellman the wrong way.

Hannah then had a major row with the girls, kissed Orson Nurse off camera and voted to 'leave' the experiment after things fell apart with her hubby Stephen Nolson.

Despite rumours flying between Hannah and Orson, it was then reported that she'd recoupled with Ryan - who quit the experiment alongside his wife Sionainn - and now Hannah has spoken out about what really went down.

'Me and Ryan built a really lovely friendship when we both got out of the experiment and that is all it has ever been,' she explained on her Instagram Story.

'We have never dated and we have never been in a relationship. If anybody actually took a minute to ask us we would have both happily confirmed that, but no! Instead it was playground whispers, rumours and a public ambush based off of hearsay YET again.'

Hannah added, 'All the other cast built friendships (boys and girls) and were chatting, meeting up, enjoying a little Whatsapp group that we were left out of and as always it was more than okay for everybody else to get friendly - but of course, not for me.

'Shout out to the eagle eyed fans because yes we did go to festivals together, Forbidden Forest was a vibe.'

Well, that's that then.

Who knows, maybe at the reunion Hannah will be pals with all the girls - after all, if Alex Henry and Sacha Jones can make up anything is possible.
