The latest series of Married At First Sight UK came to an end last night as all 16 cast members came face to face once again in an explosive reunion episode that revealed which couples had actually stayed together after the vow renewals.
In dramatic scenes, Morag Crichton arrived to the reunion alone despite renewing her vows with Luke Dawson just weeks earlier and claimed the Welsh care home manager and fireman had ghosted her.
Following Luke’s arrival, the pair then sat down with the show’s experts to discuss their relationship and quickly began rowing as Luke fumed that Morag had “played” him, while she branded him a “liar”.
Now that the series is over for good (SOB), Luke has broken his silence on social media as he thanked fans for their support. He wrote, “And that's a wrap! It's been hard to not say a thing, respond to all kind messages and thoughts and comments. I've learned so much. But my story has not ended here.
“I will try to do good things for so many people with a small platform in hope of moving forward from this experience and couldn’t be more grateful. Met some friends for life ❤ But for now I'm going to try and sleep for the first time in months. 🤗 Thank you.”
But that’s not all has Luke has teased he’s ready to reveal all about his time on the show as he shared a countdown and told his followers he was going live tonight at 7pm. We’re ready for the tea, tbh…

Which Married At First Sight Australia couples are still together? - slider
1 of 12Sam Ball and Elizabeth Sobinoff
Sam and Elizabeth might not have lasted, as Sam seemed far more interested in Ines. But Lizzie was the true winner - she was so popular with viewers she appeared on the next series of the show, finding love with Seb Guilhaus. But, sadly, they split earlier this month after a year together.
2 of 12Cyrell Jimenez and Nic Jovanovic
'Cyclone Cyrell' and Nic's tumultuous relationship was, sadly, not to last. But prepare for another reality TV crossover, as Cyrell now has a baby with Love Island runner-up Eden Dally.
3 of 12Lauren Huntriss and Matthew Bennett
One of the biggest storylines this season was about Matthew and his virginity, as he was repeatedly labelled as 'virgin'/'ex-virgin' Matt by the narrator. Anyway, Matthew was matched with Lauren - who, yes, he lost his virginity to - but it all went horribly wrong when Lauren heard Matthew telling the other guys at dinner that he wasn't sexually attracted to Lauren. AWKWARD. Lauren is still a make-up artist, we don't know if she's dating anyone. But on the other hand, self-confessed fitness enthusiast Matthew is loved up with a new girlfriend - who he met at a wrestling tryout.
4 of 12Mike Gunner and Heidi Latcham
Mike and Heidi's relationship was one which could have gone either way, but after the show, the pair split - announcing the sad news at the post-finale reunion special. 'Right after the final vows, Heidi and I went back to the Gold Coast together but it didn't take long and the wheels started coming off,' Mike explained. Heidi has said she hasn't spoken to her former husband since. From the looks of their Instagram pages, they still look single.
5 of 12Cam Merchant and Jules Robinson
Oh, Cameron and Jules. From the minute Jules and Cam had their first wedding dance without any music, we had an inkling they were in it for the long haul. And we were right! The pair now have a baby together, who was born in October last year, and tied the knot properly after the show. So, yes - sometimes this wild experiment does work.
6 of 12Melissa Lucarelli and Dino Hira
Probably the worst matched couple on the series, it isn't shock the pair called it quits on the show after Dino allegedly recorded a conversation Melissa was having with her sister about the wedding day. It appears both are still single.
7 of 12Martha Kalifatidis and Michael Brunelli
Martha and Michael were an extremely drama free pair (in comparison to everyone else) so it's no shock that they have actually managed to stay together. Yay!
8 of 12Ning Surasiang and Mark Scrivens
Eek. Another very up and down pair, Ning and Mark's relationship dissolved during the final commitment ceremony - with Mark dumping Ning, much to her shock. Following the show, Mark moved on with another former reality star, Bianca Chatfield – who appeared on home renovation show The Block. And Ning also has a new partner.
9 of 12Susie Bradley and Billy Vincent
Susie and Billy were one of the couples who married later in the experiment. From the get go, Susie kept on calling Billy awkward - even calling him a deeb at one point on their honeymoon. They split before the final commitment ceremony. Susie is now dating former rugby pro Todd Carney and they have a baby on the way. However, Billy appears to be single.
10 of 12Ines Basic and Bronson Norrish
We knew this relationship wasn't going to last from the moment Ines asked Bronson to take out his eyebrow ring. Ines went on to have an affair with Sam, which Sam has since claimed was faked by producers, and it all came out during an explosive commitment ceremony. Bronson is now a lot happier with girlfriend Hayley Wallis. And from her Instagram, Ines looks to be single at the moment.
11 of 12Jessika Power and Mick Gould
Major cracks started to show in Mick and Jessika's relationship, then Jessika went after one of the newly weds, Dan. Not a shock that Jessica and Mick didn't survive then…(Neither did her affair with Dan, btw.)
12 of 12Dan Webb and Tamara Joy
After these two fell apart thanks to Jessika and Dan's affair, Tamara was linked to Jessika's ex, Mick. The drama never stops.
Following his reunion confrontation with Morag, fans took to social media to applaud Luke for finally sticking up for himself as he told her, “We spoke on one day and you basically turned around, and you categorically told me you had never seen us in a relationship. It was like, what? What have I been fighting for? What have I been fighting for?”
One viewer tweeted, “Luke finally seeing his worth and seeing Morag for what she really is.”
Another wrote, “Yes Luke, the entire nation have been waiting for this moment king,” while a third added, “Luke’s energy is EVERYTHINGGGGG tonight!”

In other Married At First Sight UK news, the show’s sex expert Charlene Douglas has admitted she had concerns over Amy Christophers’ relationship with Joshua Christie despite their sexual chemistry.
Chatting to KISS Breakfast’s Harriet Rose in the latest episode of heat’s #RUWatching, Charlene explained, “Amy and Josh were very open about the fact they were having really good sex. I questioned that a little bit.
“If outside of the bedroom, you’re not connecting with each other at the dinner table and things like that and if there’s no emotional connection then I struggle to understand what happens in the bedroom unless you just go into roleplay mode.”
She continued, “I think they can all be interlinked but if you want something more sustainable then good sex isn’t enough. Amy and Josh were having good sex - you could see the sexual and physical chemistry right? But there were concerns there about the emotional connection and they communicate with one another when they’re feeling sad, or angry or frustrated. That wasn’t happening in a healthy way.”
