1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:03,760
Hello! Previously...

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:05,560
Have you got tattoos on
your neck? Yeah.

3
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,480
..the group reunited
for one final dinner party...

4
00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:12,360
I actually feel sick.
I want to see Anita.

5
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:13,960
I don't know if I could do
that right now.

6
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,520
..as they discovered
which marriages had thrived...

7
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:18,320
I feel like I want to be
wherever you are.

8
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,000
And enjoy the rest
of our lives together.

9
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,400
The next step
for us is starting a family,

10
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,680
and I've never seen that
with anyone else in my entire life.

11
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,280
Yeah! Me too!

12
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:31,320
Wow. That is love.

13
00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:33,400
..and which failed to survive.

14
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,280
I got completely blindsided by it.

15
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:39,520
I honestly just love you so much.

16
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:41,520
But as speculation spiralled...

17
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,200
I've heard Julia-Ruth and Joe
got matching tattoos.

18
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,800
Hello! Ugh!

19
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:50,320
..hidden truths...

20
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,120
I flirted with you cos I knew
it was gonna piss Nelly off.

21
00:00:52,160 --> 00:00:54,600
..were finally exposed.
Don't do that.

22
00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,760
Don't ever use women like
that! It's vile.

23
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,440
And as old wounds resurface
for Julia-Ruth and Divarni...

24
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,840
Why did you stay?
Because I had BLEEP feelings.

25
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:03,880
No, you didn't.

26
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,320
It sucks to even be
in the position that I was,

27
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,400
cos you couldn't own up to
your shit. Then leave!

28
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,560
..it was Maeve's need for answers...

29
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,560
Would you want to be
in a relationship with Joe?

30
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:15,640
Yes or no? I'm not talking to you.

31
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,000
Well, I'm talking to you!

32
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,200
..that threw the night into turmoil.

33
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,240
Don't put your hands
to me like that, man!

34
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:22,320
Don't do it!

35
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:25,360
It's just a lot.

36
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,880
SHE SOBS

37
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:30,960
Tonight...

38
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,640
Welcome to the end
of a remarkable journey.

39
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,520
..the group faced the experts
for the final time.

40
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,000
I love being where Bailey lives.
I love it.

41
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,240
For some, it's the
celebration they hoped for.

42
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,560
And we want a family soon.
Yes. I'm sorry.

43
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,480
THEY LAUGH

44
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,160
The more time I'm spending
with Davide,

45
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:49,720
the more secure I'm feeling.

46
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:51,000
I love him a lot.

47
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:54,200
I came into this experiment
wanting to find someone

48
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,240
to spend the rest of my life with,
and I've found that.

49
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,120
CHEERING

50
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,040
But, for others,
the pain of the past returns.

51
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:04,200
I would never think

52
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,840
about apologising to
someone that's hurt me so much.

53
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,640
I felt cheated. I felt gutted.

54
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,760
It's not what
she signed up for, is it?

55
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,240
I've never felt I was the only
person you really wanted.

56
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,960
Do you know what?
This isn't for me any more.

57
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,320
PAUL: He was into you and
you hurt him. I do apologise,

58
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,120
but I've acknowledged
what I've done.

59
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,480
That was the worst apology
I've ever heard in my life.

60
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:29,280
And will Steven finally admit
to Nelly's accusations?

61
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,040
I know you did some things
to hurt me.

62
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,120
But my question is,

63
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:33,960
are you going to finally admit
the dating app thing?

64
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,000
Was it true? You swore
that you did NOT do this.

65
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,040
Just own it now,

66
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:39,440
because otherwise,
it's going to be bad for you.

67
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:41,520
MELANIE: Steven.

68
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:13,240
Welcome...

69
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,640
..to the end of
a remarkable journey.

70
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,360
No matter where you stand today -

71
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,240
in a thriving relationship,

72
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,560
or simply having learnt more
about yourself.

73
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,080
What truly matters is

74
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,560
that you've all taken on
an extraordinary journey.

75
00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:37,240
You've demonstrated bravery
and strength.

76
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,080
That's something you should all
take great pride in.

77
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,560
There's no doubt that
last night's dinner party

78
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,160
gave us plenty to talk about.

79
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,640
But tonight is also a chance
to reflect on the highs...

80
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:56,200
..learn from the lows, and
celebrate everything in between.

81
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,320
But before we dive into that,

82
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,960
let's take a moment
to look back at

83
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,040
where your journeys first started.

84
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:07,080
Oh, God.

85
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,040
I haven't been in love before.

86
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,760
If this doesn't work, then
I don't really know what will.

87
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,880
I'm just really hoping this is it.

88
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:25,360
I want to be someone's priority.

89
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,520
I just want to be
with someone forever.

90
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,240
I'm scared,
but I'm definitely ready.

91
00:04:32,280 --> 00:04:34,560
I really hope this
is my happily ever after.

92
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,400
I am praying Mr Perfect is
at the end of the aisle.

93
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,720
There's a lot riding on today.
It has to be right.

94
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,600
Hi. Lovely to meet you.
Davide. Nice to meet you.

95
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,320
Hello.

96
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,240
How are you doing?
Hi, I'm good. Leisha.

97
00:04:57,280 --> 00:04:58,680
Leisha. Reiss.

98
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,600
How are you? You look amazing.
Thank you. So do you.

99
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:04,920
Lovely to meet you. And you.

100
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:08,400
You're beautiful, man. Thank you.

101
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:09,880
It's love at first sight.

102
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,320
When I say wed, you say Dean.

103
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,680
Wed! Dean! Wed! Dean!

104
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,480
She's absolutely beautiful.

105
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:18,520
Aw.

106
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,200
What's your name?
Leah. Leigh.

107
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:21,240
No!
LAUGHTER

108
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,040
Ah, you're joking!

109
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,840
It was an easy answer for me. Pause.

110
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,520
Oh, no. Sorry,
I wasn't supposed to... Ah!

111
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,880
I can't believe she's on a horse.

112
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,720
You will now exchange your rings.

113
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,720
I was going to go straight
in for a kiss, mate!

114
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,680
I may not know everything
about you apart from your name,

115
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,120
which I may have already forgotten.

116
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,320
John. It's John, though.
CHUCKLES: Yeah, I know.

117
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,640
Please just accept me
and let me show you

118
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,440
how magical life can be
with me by your side.

119
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:54,680
Aw!

120
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,240
You may seal this moment
with a kiss.

121
00:05:57,280 --> 00:05:58,840
Go for it. Sorry, Dad.

122
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,800
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

123
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,000
I'm taken.

124
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,160
My husband is fit.

125
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,760
Ha-ha, I got you! I got her.

126
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,320
You were ticking every single box.

127
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:35,360
I'm so happy.

128
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:39,280
The whole day feels like
a fairy-tale to me.

129
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,080
I'm feeling super-duper pleased.

130
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,080
They have matched me with someone

131
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,600
that I've been looking
for the longest time.

132
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:56,960
It has been...

133
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:58,960
..the most perfect day.

134
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,200
I think I have met
my Prince Charming.

135
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:25,960
I had a tissue, I'll give you one.
I ain't got one.

136
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,120
We're all tissued out.

137
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:29,360
Oh.

138
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,600
Of course it takes you
all right back, doesn't it,

139
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:37,040
to all of the hope and the belief
that this is the one?

140
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:38,760
And sometimes, if that
hasn't worked out,

141
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,240
it can be so hard to watch.

142
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:42,280
You all right, Leisha?

143
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:44,400
Yeah.

144
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,040
I'm just a bit sad.

145
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:51,160
Yeah.

146
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,800
But obviously, I've learnt a lot

147
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,680
and Reiss is obviously incredible,
and we had a good...

148
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,240
..we had a good crack at it.

149
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,720
Anita, how was that for you?

150
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,640
When you're watching that,
it's emotional and it's...

151
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,560
..it hits home

152
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:13,560
what we've just been through.

153
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,400
Cos you're in a bubble
and you're in it,

154
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:20,000
and you don't realise
until you come out...

155
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:21,240
..what we've just done.

156
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:26,160
But also happy as well.

157
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,800
Like, seeing the couples
that are still together,

158
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,400
it's just so nice.

159
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:30,880
Yeah, it's worked for some people.

160
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:38,240
I hope you can feel the
incredible support in this room...

161
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,080
..and we're excited to catch up
with you all.

162
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,400
First up to the couch,

163
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,000
if we could have Rebecca and Bailey.

164
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,560
Hello. Hello. Hello.
How are we? You all right?

165
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,800
How are you both?
Good, thank you. Really well.

166
00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,960
Did we come coordinated today?
Accidentally.

167
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,440
Yeah, accidentally.
Accidentally coordinated.

168
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,680
Ah, but they say that
the closer a couple grows,

169
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,280
the more alike they become.

170
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,120
We're thinking alike now.Mm.
BAILEY CHUCKLES

171
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,160
Yeah. Before we delve in too much...

172
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,760
Yeah. ..let's remind ourselves
of your journey.

173
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:13,840
Oh, God.

174
00:09:15,560 --> 00:09:19,400
I don't struggle to meet women.
I just haven't met the right person.

175
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:20,840
SHE LAUGHS

176
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,800
I don't think it's that,
like, real...

177
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,720
..sexual pull.
He was not my type.

178
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,160
You know, like, I've...

179
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,160
..catch a little bit of
feelings for you.

180
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,200
Do you know what I mean?
It's going the right way. What?

181
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,840
Bailey is firmly out of
the friend zone.

182
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,280
You look fucking beautiful.

183
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,840
Love's a feeling,
and the feeling is there.

184
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:54,280
SHE SQUEALS
And I feel like...

185
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,800
I do love you. Aw.

186
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:00,520
Love you too.
THEY CHUCKLE

187
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:02,600
Aw.

188
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,560
I don't want anything to change.

189
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,240
This is how I would want to feel
for the rest of my life.

190
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,600
I don't want to
spend time without you.

191
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,920
You are the most incredible woman
that I've ever met.

192
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:19,360
I love you, Beck, and I always will.

193
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:26,720
In my eyes, you are a superhero.

194
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,520
I have found the man
that I've been searching for.

195
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:38,760
I love you.

196
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:45,640
Aw. That was mad, innit?

197
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,320
That is so nice.

198
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:50,960
Are you all right? Yeah.

199
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,840
So, since you've left the
experiment, things are good.

200
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:56,200
Yeah. Yeah, really good. Yeah.

201
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,040
We've been loving life on
the outside, yeah.

202
00:10:58,080 --> 00:10:59,120
You know what? It's interesting.

203
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,360
You both went through lots
of highs... Yeah.

204
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:02,560
..but there were some lows. Yeah.

205
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,120
And when you think about towards
the end of the experiment,

206
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,080
I think there was a lot of
concern around the distance... Yeah.

207
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,000
..between where you both live. Yeah.

208
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,080
So how have you both navigated that?

209
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,200
We're 4.5 hours away from
each other.

210
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,360
But we spend a lot of time together.

211
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:17,680
Yeah. A lot of time together,
don't we?

212
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,480
Yeah, probably spent... Yeah,
50, 60% of the time together.

213
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:21,920
If it was like we could move
in right now together,

214
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:22,960
I would 100% do it now.

215
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,520
I think we're ready, yeah.

216
00:11:24,560 --> 00:11:26,080
I think I'm much more open

217
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,920
to moving to Hove than I was
when we were...

218
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,000
..you know,
deep in the experiment.

219
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:32,800
We're progressing that
conversation. We are. We are.

220
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,680
I love being where Bailey lives.
I love it.

221
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:37,640
So we don't have a date... Not yet.

222
00:11:37,680 --> 00:11:40,000
..but we would like to
be together full-time?

223
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:41,400
Yes. Yes, 100%.

224
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,800
And we would like to
plan for a family?

225
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:44,840
BOTH: Yes.

226
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,960
So we want a family soon?

227
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,840
Er, yes. Oh, sorry.
THEY LAUGH

228
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,360
Uh, yeah, we've spoken about,
like, rough timelines.

229
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,840
Like, by the end of next year,

230
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,000
we would hope that...

231
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,960
..then, we'd be trying by then.

232
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,520
It sounds mad saying out loud,
just like... Yeah.

233
00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:02,920
But the most important is

234
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,920
that you're talking about it
and you're expressing how you feel.

235
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:10,240
I feel like you have enabled me
to be my true self throughout this,

236
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,840
and I feel like...that's helped me
be kind of more emotional,

237
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,880
be happy to talk about
my emotions...

238
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:18,400
..be vulnerable at times.

239
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,480
I've realised that I've got
this kind of soft inside

240
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:23,680
that I'm happy to show
to the world, I think.

241
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,280
What you're describing here,
Bailey,

242
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,600
and I think it's changed
for you throughout the process,

243
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,800
is healthy masculinity. Yeah.

244
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,400
And I really want to applaud
that in you.

245
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,360
We haven't seen you sort
of saying, "Yeah, I love you."

246
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,520
It's been "I love you.
I'm putting my heart out there,

247
00:12:38,560 --> 00:12:41,120
"I'm being emotionally available
and intelligent",

248
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,080
and good on you.

249
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:47,000
Bailey has showered me with love
throughout this in every way,

250
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:51,880
and that has absolutely taken
any guard down that I had up.

251
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,720
And, yeah, I'm grateful for that
because it has meant

252
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,920
that this experience for me
has allowed me to be my true self.

253
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,520
Well, then, on that note,
we will say

254
00:13:03,560 --> 00:13:06,720
that it has been an honour
to have you both here.

255
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,240
Thank you. Thank you, guys,
as well. Thank you, guys.

256
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,640
Yeah. Give me a kiss. Love you.
APPLAUSE

257
00:13:11,680 --> 00:13:12,960
Thank you, guys. Cheers.

258
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,800
CHARLENE: Good luck. Thank you.

259
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:17,720
Yeah!

260
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:19,000
Thank you.

261
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,840
Next up, if we could have Maeve.

262
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,640
Now, there's a lot
that we have to unpack.

263
00:13:40,680 --> 00:13:42,920
But before we do,

264
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,360
we'd like to take a look at the
journey that you had with Joe, OK?

265
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:47,400
Oh, God.

266
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,760
Hello. Hiya, darling. You all right?

267
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:59,560
He's in the top five fittest men
I have ever seen.

268
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,240
How do you feel? You're not sure?

269
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:03,800
I'm not 100% sure.

270
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,720
I think you put on this, like,
facade,

271
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,640
but I know there's a soft interior.

272
00:14:11,680 --> 00:14:14,280
I just feel like every time
when I let more people in,

273
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,080
that's when I get fucked over more.

274
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:18,040
I'm not going to fuck you over.
Do you know what I mean?

275
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,760
I know, but... You don't need to
worry about that.

276
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:22,960
Everyone else has, though.

277
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,960
I do feel like we are understanding
each other more and more every day.

278
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:31,040
I've never actually met someone
that's so, like, selfless.

279
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,480
And I genuinely think I am...

280
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,240
Well, I have fallen
in love with you, because...

281
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,400
APPLAUSE

282
00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,400
I do love you too.

283
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,280
We're all right,
but we're not at the same time.

284
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,480
Like, last night,
we had an argument.

285
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,240
I was like, "Don't tell me
what I need to do."

286
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,200
So I stormed out of the apartment.
You did?

287
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:52,680
Oh, yes.

288
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,400
I've, like,
been in denial about all,

289
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,160
like, the differences
we actually have.

290
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:01,680
Maybe we're not compatible at all.
Do you love her?

291
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,160
Am I, like, head over heels
truly in love?

292
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:06,720
Probably not.

293
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,760
And now I just feel like
a fucking idiot.

294
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:13,160
It's not going to fucking work.

295
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:17,560
Fuck this.

296
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,560
Fuck this.

297
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,160
Like, you don't do that,

298
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,920
you don't say that you love them
and then fuck them off.

299
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,920
I've heard whispers.

300
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:35,400
Have you slept with Joe?

301
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:38,720
Yep.

302
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,560
You're a horrible human.
OK.

303
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,000
You can't cheat!

304
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,440
I can't believe
that Joe's actually done this.

305
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,120
You don't tell someone
that you love them,

306
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,560
fucking leave them,
and then two days later,

307
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,280
start cracking on with another wife,
and then fuck them in Lanzarote.

308
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,120
Well, that's what happened.

309
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:03,160
Wow.

310
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,560
That was a lot.
We're going to unpack it all,

311
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,920
but first, it's very important to
say that we did invite Joe

312
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:12,240
to be here with us.

313
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:13,920
He has declined.

314
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:19,800
Now, just so you know,
I think Joe is a coward.

315
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:21,880
Me, too. OK. OK.

316
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,720
I think someone who continues
to return to this couch

317
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,880
time and time again alone,
but they return,

318
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,960
you know what that person is?
Courageous.

319
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,840
I am quite a strong person.
I'm proud of myself for it.

320
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,880
Everything that I've done,
I've learned from it.

321
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:38,600
And I love that about you.

322
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,480
What you've been through
has been a real journey.

323
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,040
Now, when you look back at that,

324
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,840
what was it that you heard Joe
say for the first time?

325
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:51,920
That he didn't know how
he actually felt towards us

326
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:53,800
and that he wasn't in love with me.

327
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:58,080
I mean, it all makes sense now.
Do you know what I mean?

328
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,040
But, like, just say.
Just be honest.

329
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:05,440
Last night we heard that there was
a, say, a relationship

330
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,280
between Joe and Julia-Ruth.

331
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:15,120
Yes. And I think that it's important
for us

332
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,320
just to address that in this moment.

333
00:17:17,360 --> 00:17:22,640
So is there anything that you would
like to say to Julia-Ruth?

334
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:40,920
Is there anything that you would
like to say to Julia-Ruth?

335
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,520
Normally, I would never, ever,
ever think about apologising

336
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,280
to someone that hurt me so much.

337
00:17:55,360 --> 00:17:56,400
But...

338
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,560
..I want to apologise for anything
that I've said

339
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,160
to actually upset you and hurt you.

340
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,320
Because I have
a vicious mouth on me.

341
00:18:05,360 --> 00:18:07,920
I'm very aware of that, and I do
want to apologise if I have said

342
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:09,880
anything that's been
bang out of order.

343
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,840
Thank you. I mean,
I think your reaction made sense,

344
00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:15,960
but I really do appreciate
the apology.

345
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,680
So thank you.
And obviously I'm sorry too.

346
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,080
I would never have done
that a couple of months ago.

347
00:18:26,120 --> 00:18:29,080
Just to clarify, like, that's not
something I normally do.

348
00:18:29,120 --> 00:18:31,720
Yeah, obviously. When's the last
time you apologised to someone?

349
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,400
Apart from that,
I can't remember. Yeah.

350
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:38,160
What's interesting is you seem to be
a lot more confident

351
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,720
in self today than the last time
that we saw you on the couch.

352
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,920
Yeah, I feel like I'm a completely
different person.

353
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,960
Like, I've learned so much about me,
and, like,

354
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,720
I am a lot stronger than I thought
I ever was.

355
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:53,080
And that makes me feel like
a million times better about myself.

356
00:18:53,120 --> 00:18:59,760
You truly have evolved
into a better version of yourself.

357
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,400
Yeah.
I think you have tremendous courage,

358
00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,320
and you should never forget that.

359
00:19:04,360 --> 00:19:07,480
What I love about the way
you've carried yourself

360
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,160
through this process is
you haven't just gone,

361
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,480
well this is how all men treat me,
therefore, you know, this is the way

362
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:14,640
my destiny is heading.

363
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,640
Somewhere in amongst this journey,
you found yourself.

364
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,520
And now you are sitting here with
a different level of strength.

365
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,480
You're starting to build
that real self-esteem,

366
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,440
that belief that you actually do
deserve your great love.

367
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,240
Yeah. And I think it's just around
the corner.

368
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:31,560
Thank you.

369
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:32,800
Good on you, Maeve.

370
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:34,680
APPLAUSE

371
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,920
1,000,000%,
I am a different me from walking in.

372
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,080
Like, walking down the aisle
to here right now,

373
00:19:44,120 --> 00:19:48,600
I have had such an amazing growth
in myself and I couldn't be prouder.

374
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:54,280
Let's welcome to the couch
Reiss and Leisha.

375
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:55,320
APPLAUSE

376
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,080
Hello, you two. Hello.

377
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,320
Well, it was clear last night

378
00:20:07,360 --> 00:20:11,880
that you have some big and
confronting feelings, both of you.

379
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,440
But before we get into that,
let's take a look back

380
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,640
at your Married
at First Sight experience.

381
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:25,080
Hi. Hello.

382
00:20:25,120 --> 00:20:27,440
First thing I noticed was her
beautiful green eyes

383
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:28,760
and her lovely smile.

384
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:31,880
He kissed me on the cheek,

385
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,400
which is like making me
a little bit crazy, I think.

386
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,000
Does he like me? Does he not?

387
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:38,880
Why didn't you kiss me at the end?

388
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:40,520
You offered your cheek,
so I went for the cheek.

389
00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:41,720
I need you to take control.

390
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,400
I don't think my husband fancies me.

391
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,280
I don't want to get my heart broken.

392
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,080
Do you feel like
you're falling for me, though?

393
00:20:47,120 --> 00:20:49,200
Easy, girl. It's been like two days.

394
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,240
Come on. It's way too soon to be,
like, falling for anyone.

395
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,680
Hold my hand. Everybody else is like
holding hands

396
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,560
and you're just fucking walking off
and leaving me.

397
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,920
I stopped for two seconds. You're
like, "Fucking hold my hands."

398
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,680
The way you handle shit, it's like,
to me, it's like immature.

399
00:21:05,120 --> 00:21:07,600
I'm somebody that does need
that little bit of reassurance.

400
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,560
I've seen the connection
that we've had,

401
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,000
and I do want to see more of it.

402
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:13,760
You're so comfortable.

403
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:15,800
I feel like me and Reiss
are definitely going

404
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,000
in the right direction.

405
00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:18,960
We're going in the love direction.

406
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:20,240
I love your hair.

407
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,160
I'll try and control my urges too.

408
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,320
Keep the inner beast at bay.

409
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:26,680
Leisha wants it.

410
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:31,880
Lunchtime, mornings, like, any time
she can get it, you know. Right, OK!

411
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,120
I'm just so lucky
to be here with you.

412
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:36,200
Yeah. We're strong now, aren't we?
I'm happy.

413
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:37,480
I'm happy too.

414
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,800
That's my gaff right there.
Oh, is that your house?

415
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,400
Yes.
I can really see myself moving here.

416
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,520
There's a play park
up there, like a kiddie one.

417
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,400
Ever noticed that?
Slow down, young buck.

418
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,080
Leisha's very fast paced
with her emotions.

419
00:21:53,120 --> 00:21:55,400
You don't do needy, do you? No.

420
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,200
I'm worried
because I can see she is falling.

421
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,840
I need to have that gut feeling
that you're the same.

422
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,840
Leisha is 100% into you,

423
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,200
and you're 80% into her
in the relationship.

424
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,400
Probably, yeah. I don't understand,
like, what I'm doing

425
00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,680
that's, like, not allowing
you to commit.

426
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,760
You obviously move at a different
pace to me.

427
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:20,960
The only way it would work is if,
like, you were, like,

428
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:22,280
really strong feelings for me.

429
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:24,240
I feel like you just keep
pushing them away.

430
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,280
I don't really know what to do.

431
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,280
I just hope that I am the person
that you want.

432
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,840
Like, I do obviously love you.

433
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:35,640
I want to keep going with you,
but them feelings are not there yet.

434
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,080
I'm just so scared of being hurt.

435
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,280
I feel like you put pressure on me

436
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,760
to move at a faster pace
than I was ready for.

437
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:50,640
With all that said,

438
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,200
your thoughtful,
caring, and beautiful nature

439
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,240
is something I've always wanted
in a partner.

440
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,520
Our adventure is far from over.

441
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:07,520
I'm definitely in love with you.

442
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,040
Got the rest of our lives
together now. I'm so excited!

443
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:15,240
Thank you.

444
00:23:17,360 --> 00:23:19,040
You all right? Yeah.

445
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,880
Well, of course,
where we left the two of you there,

446
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,160
you were making the decision
to commit to each other

447
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,240
and continue the relationship.

448
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:34,960
So why don't you fill us in on what
happened between there and here.

449
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,400
After the experiment,
Leisha come to Essex,

450
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,680
and there was like a comment made.

451
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,720
Leisha said, "A footballer messaged
me last night.

452
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:44,840
"But don't worry, I put it to bed.

453
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,600
"I let him know, like,
I'm with someone.

454
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,200
"There's nothing to worry about."

455
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:51,320
I thought, OK, fair enough. And then
the second day Leisha said to me,

456
00:23:51,360 --> 00:23:53,000
"If it don't work between
me and you, that's all right.

457
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:54,080
"I'll just get with a footballer."

458
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,360
So, like, my head
was spinning a little bit from that.

459
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:02,720
And then a couple of weeks later,

460
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:06,560
we went on a night out and
Leisha started talking to a boy.

461
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,800
So I started talking to a girl,
and Leisha came charging over,

462
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,200
like, causing a bit of a scene
and saying,

463
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,640
"What are you doing flirting
with her, Reiss?"

464
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,240
So I kind of cooled things off.

465
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,520
I said, "Look, give me a couple
of days to think what I want."

466
00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,680
When I returned back to Essex,
I made up my mind.

467
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,200
Do you know what?
This isn't for me any more.

468
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,280
So I expressed that to Leisha
when I got home.

469
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,520
Leisha you look like maybe you have
a different perspective

470
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:33,960
on what happened there.

471
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,760
To be fair,
I say things out of insecurities.

472
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:41,360
Obviously, I didn't mean it,
you know?

473
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,720
But, like, Reiss never really said
anything to me...

474
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,080
I did at the time. He did at the
time. It's a weird thing to say.

475
00:24:47,120 --> 00:24:49,400
Like, never really
kind of, like, told me

476
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:51,320
really about how it made him feel.

477
00:24:51,360 --> 00:24:55,160
When we left the experiment,
he did go quite distant.

478
00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,520
But I feel like we did break up
over, like, minor arguments.

479
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:04,400
I still don't feel like that was
enough to break up a relationship

480
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,400
if somebody was fully invested.

481
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,440
It wasn't just that, though.
It was a build-up.

482
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,400
I've never really felt like I was

483
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,720
the only person
that you really wanted.

484
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,040
What you have done
throughout this entire journey,

485
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:26,400
Leisha, is pursued Reiss,
and what Reiss does,

486
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:27,760
he's a classic distancer,

487
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:32,120
the more that you pursue, the more
that Reiss distances himself,

488
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,720
and you two are just reacting off
of fear.

489
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,920
Your fear is that
he's going to... Run away.

490
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,040
Run away. Your fear is what?
Getting the pressure.

491
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,280
Exactly. Getting too much pressure.

492
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:44,480
So you both are in fear,

493
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,000
but you're reacting
to it differently.

494
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,560
I feel like I was
always wanting more.

495
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,640
It's probably hence the reason why
some of these flyaway comments

496
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:54,640
were said.
But sometimes, like you said,

497
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,680
like insecurities can be
a bit hurtful.

498
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,840
Maybe think twice
before saying that.

499
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,440
Is it going to upset someone? Yeah.

500
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,360
And I guess this
has been a real theme, hasn't it,

501
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,080
throughout the relationship?

502
00:26:08,120 --> 00:26:11,280
Insecurity and the way that you each
communicate about that.

503
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:13,440
And I'm just wondering
if you were able to say to Leisha,

504
00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:14,880
"Hey, that really hurts
my feelings."

505
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,440
You know, showing that little bit
of emotional rawness

506
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:23,280
and vulnerability could have had
a really different impact on her.

507
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,480
It's just not what I do.
I bottle that stuff up.

508
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,600
And how's that working for you?

509
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,040
Probably not the best.

510
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:31,120
Yeah.

511
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,320
I just need to be a lot more open
with my emotions

512
00:26:36,360 --> 00:26:38,600
instead of bottling things away.

513
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,360
Read your partner.
See what they need.

514
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:44,280
I think, Leisha, also,
there's some learning here

515
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,880
around you're feeling
like you need more reassurance

516
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,680
from your partner, but there might
be a healthier way of doing it

517
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,080
than to kind of try
to make them jealous.

518
00:26:53,120 --> 00:26:54,240
Yeah, definitely.

519
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:01,600
How did it feel for both of you
watching your life together?

520
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,800
Oh. So emotional.

521
00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:08,200
Obviously, I'm gutted that, you know
I'm not walking away with Reiss.

522
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,600
The feelings for me
don't just go away.

523
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,600
Reiss will always hold
a really special place in my heart.

524
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,800
And like, obviously, there's still
a lot of feelings there.

525
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:25,240
You are a beautiful girl
inside and out,

526
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,680
and I'm just sorry it didn't
work out between us.

527
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:29,800
Yeah. Me too.

528
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:33,560
Don't change being you.

529
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,600
You are an amazing person,
so thank you.

530
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:38,680
So are you.

531
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,000
Aww.

532
00:27:45,120 --> 00:27:48,760
It's beautiful.
Well, we've certainly loved having

533
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:50,680
the two of you
within this experiment.

534
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:54,280
It's been a roller-coaster.
We wish you both all the best

535
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,920
with your future relationships
as well. Thank you.

536
00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:58,880
APPLAUSE

537
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:04,800
All I wanted was the fairy tale.
I wanted the love story.

538
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,880
There was many times

539
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:15,720
that we had amazing times
and I just loved every minute of it.

540
00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,280
Those feelings are still quite raw.

541
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:21,000
They're not just going
to go away overnight.

542
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,240
I didn't find the love
that I wanted,

543
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,960
but I'm putting the love
back into myself.

544
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,480
My perfect match will be somewhere.

545
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:33,240
He just wasn't obviously at the end
of that aisle, unfortunately.

546
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,400
OK. Next up,

547
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:49,960
Leigh and Leah.

548
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,240
Hello. Hi.

549
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:55,200
You both, could we say,
had a contentious vow renewal?

550
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,320
Let's take a look back
to remind ourselves.

551
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,240
Oh, fuck, fuck, fuck.

552
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,240
Your behaviour, jokes and remarks
towards other women

553
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:13,360
only ever caused me
to be more closed off.

554
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,720
If this hadn't have happened,
I feel I may have felt

555
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,280
more comfortable
to let my guard down. Disagree.

556
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,120
If I'm truly thinking
about my future,

557
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,880
I need someone
who trusts me without question.

558
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:27,320
I often felt like
I was being managed, not met.

559
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:28,920
I am leaving this marriage here.

560
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:35,600
For you to say that you felt managed
throughout the whole...

561
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,480
I didn't say throughout the whole.
OK. You add things in all the time.

562
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,520
Managed, not met. I need to feel
more supported by my partner.

563
00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:42,640
And if you weren't a closed book,

564
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,560
maybe you would have got that from
the beginning.

565
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,840
You're acting as if I haven't
fucking tried, I have tried.

566
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,560
I don't feel my energy was met.
Neither do I.

567
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:51,800
Got anything else to say?
Not really.

568
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,920
Now that you've had time to reflect,
what's your takeaway

569
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,080
about your time here
in this experiment?

570
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:05,800
To start with vow renewals,

571
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,720
Leah said that she felt
like she was managed and not met.

572
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,000
That I interrogated her
and that I led her on.

573
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,880
Throughout the process, I feel like
you had more control

574
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,920
of the situation. You knew where you
stood more than I did. That's...

575
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:24,840
I've got to disagree with you.
..how I feel.

576
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,200
Yeah, that's valid.
But what I mean,

577
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,080
I was honest with you the whole
way through,

578
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:33,160
whether it be good or bad.

579
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,560
And you had the choice to leave
or stay.

580
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:36,640
I'm not saying you're in control.

581
00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,880
I'm saying you were more
in control of, like,

582
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:41,680
what would happen next?

583
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,480
I don't think I was
in control of it.

584
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,880
No, I was just going with it,
and we both had a choice

585
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,000
whether it was something we wanted
to be in or not.

586
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,960
You could argue that you two,
in terms of compatibility,

587
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,440
are two of the strongest on paper.

588
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,880
So now when you think back,
why did the plane never take off?

589
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,520
Ask her. I would take that one.
I feel like that was on me.

590
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,120
I think massively
because I did have my walls up,

591
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:12,400
and I come in here thinking I was
open and healed and ready

592
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:16,760
and I wasn't. So you're accepting
the responsibility

593
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,640
for the plane not taking off?

594
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,000
100%.

595
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,040
Leigh, you're taking that? Yeah.

596
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,560
And, Leah, you're assigning that
to Leigh?

597
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:26,760
No, I think like it takes two
to tango,

598
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:30,760
but I think I was ready
to probably just give it a go.

599
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:32,920
But, you know,
I'm not putting it all on her.

600
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,040
Like, I know I'm a pain in the arse
as well.

601
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:37,720
And I think I've learned a lot about
myself in this whole experiment.

602
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:41,800
Like, a lot. What would you say your
greatest lesson is

603
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,400
from your time here?

604
00:31:43,440 --> 00:31:45,720
I can be persistent.
I can be resilient.

605
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,200
So it's taught me to sit
in my feelings a lot more.

606
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:50,480
Well, look at that.
Look at that.

607
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:54,800
So now, Leigh, your walls were high,
sky-high.

608
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,200
Where are they today?

609
00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,440
I feel like I'm on a bit of
a journey at the moment.

610
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:00,000
I discovered that about myself.

611
00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,480
I didn't realise how closed off I
was and how maybe not ready I was

612
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:08,480
and how much I self-sabotage things
because I'm scared of getting hurt.

613
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,160
So now I'm aware of all of that.

614
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:14,320
I'm trying to work through not
letting what's happened in my past

615
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,040
ruin what could potentially be
my future.

616
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,920
Thank you so much and we wish you
the best in the future. Thank you.

617
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,440
APPLAUSE

618
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:32,520
The next couple we want to go to is
April and Leo.

619
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:35,280
Hi.

620
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:39,320
April, we noticed
that you were quite upset

621
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,200
when you watched the video
a little bit earlier.

622
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:46,040
Yeah. I love love
and I do want to find my person,

623
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,280
do you know what I mean? on the
wedding day, I was so happy

624
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,440
and I was like, "Oh, my God, this
has got so much potential."

625
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:52,480
And then, you know, obviously didn't
work out that way.

626
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:56,320
So I think, yeah,
a bit of a realisation, I guess.

627
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,440
Yeah,
and I think it can be difficult

628
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,080
when you're in the situation
and there's so much going on

629
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,040
to kind of remember where it
all started,

630
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,400
because the two of you
had quite a strong start.

631
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,600
Yeah, definitely. Yeah.
The wedding day was really strong.

632
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,920
The chemistry was there instantly,

633
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,640
but as we got further on with
the experiment,

634
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:17,240
we just... We needed different
things from the relationship

635
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:18,560
and it is a shame.

636
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:20,800
But it gives me hope moving on
in the future

637
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,760
that there is still someone out
there that makes you feel like that.

638
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,840
So, April, what would you say
the takeaways are for you?

639
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,840
I'm definitely going to take
so much of what I've learned here

640
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,240
into my next relationship,

641
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,400
and I'm glad we can be OK
and like take from it,

642
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,520
because it's a big old thing
to do together.

643
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,560
Well, it's been a joy
seeing your journey

644
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:46,000
and we wish you all the very best
in your future relationships.

645
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:47,520
Thank you. Thank you.

646
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,680
APPLAUSE

647
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,840
Next up to the couch,
Anita and Paul.

648
00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:01,600
Sounds good.

649
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:08,400
It's good to see you. Thank you.

650
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:15,520
The two of you were our first couple
to leave the experiment.

651
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:20,000
Yeah. Obviously didn't find
what I came for.

652
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:24,640
And to be only in two weeks
was massively disappointing.

653
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:29,320
Yesterday, we saw when Paul
entered the mixer

654
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:31,840
that you became quite emotional.

655
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:33,280
I did, yes.

656
00:34:34,720 --> 00:34:36,440
When I left the experiment,

657
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:39,280
I had time to think about
what had just happened,

658
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,600
and I went from,
"Oh, it is what it is"

659
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,320
to "I actually am P'd off."

660
00:34:47,240 --> 00:34:50,600
And I had in my mind that I wasn't
actually going to speak to him

661
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:53,480
at all until today in front of yous.

662
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,280
Paul, would you like to give
your thoughts?

663
00:34:56,320 --> 00:35:00,000
At that moment?
A little bit confused, yeah.

664
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:03,120
Sometimes you have to give people
space and let them breathe.

665
00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:05,720
And I'm not sure why she didn't
think I'd come straight for her,

666
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:06,840
because that's what I do.

667
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:08,840
Every time I go into the room,
I go, "Nyeoww."

668
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:15,240
Anita, the whole experience
for you was quite tricky.

669
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,200
Where do you think things
went wrong?

670
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:23,240
I found it very difficult
to communicate with Paul.

671
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,040
We were just on two
totally different levels.

672
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:27,800
I like somebody who says
what they mean

673
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:30,120
and somebody very straight talking,
like myself.

674
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:32,320
We're big girls and boys
at the end of the day.

675
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,400
We've been probably through a lot
in our lives. Speak for yourself!

676
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:38,600
I mean, Paul,
I know you're making...

677
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:40,040
There's a bit of humour there.

678
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:41,120
You have to, don't you?

679
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:45,440
Is there any learning,
do you feel like, on your part?

680
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,360
I'm only here for one reason
tonight. I've made the effort

681
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,440
to come here for one reason and one
reason only.

682
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:56,000
To thank you, Anita,
because I haven't found myself.

683
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,360
She started me on that journey.

684
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,320
So I suppose
what I'm hearing you say

685
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:04,840
is that Anita has really allowed you
to sort of look at yourself,

686
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:06,880
find yourself a little bit.

687
00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:10,760
Beginning, we're on the road.
I thank her for that.

688
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,000
It's good to have somebody
who gives you that drive

689
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:14,920
and that impetus
to do something about it.

690
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,520
And I found someone
to do that for me.

691
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,560
Yeah, but that's not
what she was here for.

692
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,200
It's not what she signed up for,
is it?

693
00:36:23,240 --> 00:36:24,840
You signed up for love,

694
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:28,920
and not someone who was a project.

695
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:34,280
You know, yes,
you're here to thank her,

696
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,880
and absolutely she has put you on
this path, But also...

697
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,240
..it's not really fair, is it?

698
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,160
Yes. You're here to thank her

699
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,680
and absolutely she
has put you on this path.

700
00:36:55,720 --> 00:36:57,480
But also...

701
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,040
..it's not really fair, is it?

702
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,120
That's how I felt, to be honest.
I put a lot into it.

703
00:37:08,240 --> 00:37:11,160
I felt cheated, I felt gutted.

704
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,120
I did actually feel
that I was just let down.

705
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:15,760
When I went home,
I did doubt myself.

706
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,440
I thought,
do I need to lower my expectations?

707
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:32,840
Paul, what's making you upset?

708
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:37,640
I feel guilty.

709
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:40,760
I do feel guilty.

710
00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,520
It's all right, Paul.
It's OK, Paul.

711
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:09,760
I came to say sorry.

712
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:14,200
Thank you.

713
00:38:14,240 --> 00:38:15,520
Thank you.

714
00:38:20,240 --> 00:38:23,400
What I would say to you is
it is not uncommon

715
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,520
for people
to come into this process believing

716
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,840
that they're ready
and they start to realise,

717
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,080
actually,
I've got a bit of work to do.

718
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,040
Yeah. I mean, I think you
wholeheartedly believed

719
00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:34,280
that you were ready,

720
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:36,800
but this is a process
that you can't hide within.

721
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:38,360
I discovered that quickly, yeah.

722
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:39,640
It really does expose you.

723
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:41,640
There is nowhere to hide.

724
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,760
I think the process has helped you
to grow as a person. For sure.

725
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:46,960
It sounds like Anita has been a part
of that.

726
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,120
We're on the road.
I was never on the road before.

727
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:54,200
She's given me the courage,
so I'm kind of truly grateful.

728
00:38:56,200 --> 00:38:57,760
These are tears of happiness,
really.

729
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:03,520
I mean, where do the two
of you go from here?

730
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,760
Do you feel like there
is an opportunity for a friendship?

731
00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,520
I don't know.

732
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,880
I'm not going to sit here and go,
yeah, I'll be on the end

733
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:12,320
of the telephone for you, Paul.

734
00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:14,200
I'm not promising anything.

735
00:39:14,240 --> 00:39:17,000
I wish nothing but good health,
happiness and...

736
00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:19,880
I'll look out. Don't you worry.
I'll see you about.

737
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:22,640
I'll find you. You'll be loved-up
somewhere.

738
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:26,440
So maybe for now, the two
of you go your separate ways,

739
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:28,360
work on yourself.

740
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,400
We really wish you all the best with
your future relationships.

741
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,080
Thank you. OK. Good luck, guys.

742
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,400
Thank you, thank you,
thank you, thank you.

743
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:39,960
APPLAUSE

744
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,560
Next up to the couch,
Davide and Keye.

745
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:49,160
APPLAUSE

746
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:55,640
Hi, guys. Golden couple.

747
00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,720
How have things been
since you've left?

748
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:01,440
I think they've been really,
really good.

749
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:04,960
We got into each other's
lives really easily.

750
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,200
Yeah, definitely. I think we found
a really nice balance as well.

751
00:40:07,240 --> 00:40:10,160
Any concerns we had between
the quiet pace of your life

752
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:12,080
and the, the more fast pace
of my life

753
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,320
has actually just worked
really nicely.

754
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,680
It's just giving perfect balance to,
I think, both of our lives. Yeah.

755
00:40:17,720 --> 00:40:19,680
Our work is done.

756
00:40:19,720 --> 00:40:22,640
You did a fabulous job in every way.
You're welcome.

757
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,120
You found us the best match.
Yeah, very, very happy.

758
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,920
Well, we know you guys had the most
amazing chemistry

759
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:29,040
on your wedding day.

760
00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:32,040
Let's take a look at your
Married at First Sight story.

761
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:33,560
Yeah.

762
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:42,800
Hello.

763
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:48,080
I'm so nervous. You look amazing.
You look gorgeous.

764
00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:51,440
You look fantastic.
Keye, he's very, very handsome.

765
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,760
I'm so, so happy.
I'm like a schoolgirl with a crush.

766
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,640
Sorry, I'm just a bit flushed.

767
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:02,760
Does that make you happy?

768
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:04,640
It makes some part of me happy.

769
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:08,640
And I'm falling for you.

770
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:10,720
You're perfect in every way.

771
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,160
My breath is taken away.
Like, it's magical.

772
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:16,320
Hi, guys.

773
00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:17,520
Look at this man.

774
00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,840
We are very strongly falling
for each other.

775
00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:23,760
Are you in love?
I am in love with you.

776
00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:25,200
I can't imagine my
life without him.

777
00:41:25,240 --> 00:41:28,080
I've known I was in love with Davide
from the moment I met Davide.

778
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:30,400
I haven't been this happy ever.

779
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:33,520
The connection we had instantly
at meeting

780
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:35,360
is the same connection
that we have now.

781
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,800
Keye, I have never had anyone make
me feel as wanted

782
00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,480
and desired as you do.

783
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:50,080
You've shown me what it truly means
to love

784
00:41:50,120 --> 00:41:51,640
with a full, open heart.

785
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:53,480
Tu es ma maison.

786
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:54,960
I love you very much.

787
00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:02,480
APPLAUSE

788
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,120
How did that feel,
watching that back?

789
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,480
It was beautiful!
Yeah. It was so nice.

790
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,600
Nothing has changed. If anything it
became even better now.

791
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,400
I love him a lot.

792
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,240
And I stand by my words.

793
00:42:21,720 --> 00:42:25,040
I love just the way that
the two of you hold eye contact.

794
00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:26,200
It's so powerful.

795
00:42:26,240 --> 00:42:27,960
It's like you get caught up
in it, like, oh, this is amazing.

796
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:29,040
We do!

797
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:31,920
The more time I'm spending
with Davide,

798
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,560
the more secure I'm feeling
and the more that he listens

799
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,600
and respects my emotions
when I do share them.

800
00:42:38,240 --> 00:42:40,320
I love that you mentioned
security there.

801
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:44,400
This seems to be a really important
theme for the two of you,

802
00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:46,040
and it's so beautiful.

803
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:49,560
And I just love
that you've both found that.

804
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:50,680
We love that too.

805
00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:56,480
The two of you have grown incredibly
over the last few months.

806
00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:59,800
You've taken on the feedback.
You've overcome lots of fears.

807
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:01,480
You communicate
so much more effectively,

808
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:03,480
so we're really proud of you.
Thank you.

809
00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:05,960
So we absolutely wish you
all the very best.

810
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:07,800
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much. Well done.

811
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,240
Ah, there it is.
We love those kisses.

812
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:15,800
Yay!

813
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,440
Our next couple up here
on the couch with us...

814
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:29,480
..is Julia-Ruth and Divarni.

815
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:31,920
APPLAUSE

816
00:43:43,720 --> 00:43:45,560
It's been tough for you guys,

817
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:49,880
so I think it would be good
to really unpack that today,

818
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:52,960
but also to get both of your
perspectives on the relationship

819
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:54,560
and perhaps where things went awry.

820
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:55,720
Sure.

821
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:57,400
Before we get into that,

822
00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:59,880
shall we take a look
at your experience?

823
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:05,400
Hi. Wow.

824
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:06,640
Absolutely blown away.

825
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:10,240
I really do think that he's lovely.

826
00:44:17,560 --> 00:44:19,440
I feel like the wedding
was such a high.

827
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:22,600
But I have woken up with, like,
a different thought this morning.

828
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:26,800
Knowing that I could potentially be
alone for the rest of my life,

829
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:28,680
that would be the worst.

830
00:44:28,720 --> 00:44:30,920
Everything is so intense
and so deep.

831
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:33,600
The last thing I want to do is have
a talk about traumas

832
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:35,440
and then like,
get into bed with you.

833
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,200
And where are you guys
at with intimacy?

834
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:45,520
Yeah, I think we're still taking our
time with that one a little bit.

835
00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:48,640
Are you physically attracted
to your husband?

836
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,440
I'm getting there. I'm on the path.

837
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,360
I don't care whether people know
that we have sex or not.

838
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:56,280
You do. I've said it before.

839
00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:58,800
I said we've had attraction issues.

840
00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:00,960
Have you been emotionally
or physically attracted

841
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:02,720
to another husband
in this experiment?

842
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:05,680
Probably Steven.

843
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:10,880
It's transpired that she'd met some
people from the group

844
00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:13,360
and said that she'd
really fancied Steven,

845
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:15,280
and that she needs to stay
for two more weeks

846
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,600
because she hopes she gets him
for partner swap.

847
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,920
Julia-Ruth, your partner is unsure

848
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,520
if you are physically attracted
to him.

849
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:24,120
What is the answer? Yes.

850
00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:28,480
Julia-Ruth said she was attracted to
somebody else's husband.

851
00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:29,960
She doesn't want to be with you.

852
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:31,960
She will not see a future with you
after this

853
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,160
and she doesn't find you attractive.

854
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,360
When are you going to make
that decision?

855
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:37,560
Enough is enough, yeah.

856
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,480
I need to spend the night apart.
OK.

857
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:43,960
What more can I do now?

858
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:46,640
The relationship is in the gutter.
I'm done.

859
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:49,520
I have written leave.

860
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:50,720
Leave.

861
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,680
Have you spoken to Julia-Ruth since?

862
00:45:52,720 --> 00:45:55,320
Respectfully, I've kept my distance
because I know who she is.

863
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,360
She's been fucking Joe!

864
00:45:57,400 --> 00:45:59,360
And now you're after Steven
as well.

865
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:00,880
She's just asked Steven on a date.

866
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:02,880
And you've asked Steven?
Are you all right?!

867
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:06,080
I'm sitting here, and once again,
all the blame is on me.

868
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:10,680
Their husbands are dirty, dirty,
dirty little boys.

869
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:25,040
How are you feeling, Divarni?

870
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:30,720
Put a lot into the relationship.

871
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:33,320
There was a question that was asked
yesterday at the dinner table.

872
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:36,560
If I was generally, like,
have feelings for Julia-Ruth

873
00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:38,600
and I'm going to still stand by it.

874
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:42,600
Yeah, I obviously did have feelings
for Julia-Ruth.

875
00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:47,400
Was there a moment or a turning
point that led to you switching off?

876
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:52,160
Getting to know someone, I want to
know them on a deeper level,

877
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:54,160
on an emotional level,
and I knew I wasn't getting that.

878
00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:55,320
Even though I was trying for it,

879
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,560
and I would try different ways
to do it.

880
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:01,760
Julia-Ruth, are you able to pinpoint
from your perspective

881
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:03,000
where things went wrong?

882
00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:10,080
I think for me,
what's not there was like having...

883
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:14,320
..that emotional connection
and that best friend

884
00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:15,840
and someone you can laugh with
and connect with,

885
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:17,520
and someone who's there for you
and actually got your back.

886
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:21,120
And there's times when I put all my
trust into you and you let me down.

887
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:24,280
Julia-Ruth, I'm curious.

888
00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:27,680
Did you have strong emotions
and feelings for Divarni

889
00:47:27,720 --> 00:47:29,760
at any point in this experiment?

890
00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:34,320
I mean, maybe when we were intimate.

891
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,280
Maybe like a fondness
kind of developed there.

892
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,840
I don't think I ever,
I'm not going to lie, got there.

893
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,880
Hearing that, Divarni,
did you know that?

894
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:48,760
Not particularly. I did
obviously feel like I was

895
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:52,600
pulling a lot of weight when it came
down to the relationship.

896
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:57,360
With the efforts that I put in,
I don't think it was reciprocated.

897
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:01,120
Would you say that continuing
to have sex with each other

898
00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:03,040
strengthened your feelings
towards her?

899
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:05,440
I'm not just having sex just to just
have sex, you know what I mean?

900
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:07,160
I didn't come here, respectfully,
for that.

901
00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:10,760
So this was always my observation.
What was happening is that Divarni,

902
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:12,840
every week you had a stronger
feeling,

903
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,600
and then Julia-Ruth,
it felt like every week

904
00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:19,160
there was just like a nonchalant,
"I'm not really in this."

905
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:20,800
That was the observation.

906
00:48:23,240 --> 00:48:25,640
Julia-Ruth, why did you stay?

907
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:28,720
I think it comes back to
the fondness

908
00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:31,080
and do I just give up?

909
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:33,120
I literally will flog a horse
until it's dead.

910
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:37,400
He was into you.
Everybody knows he was into you

911
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:41,360
and you hurt him. Do you have
anything to say to him?

912
00:48:43,720 --> 00:48:44,960
Yeah, I'm really sorry.

913
00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:51,360
That was the worst apology
I've ever heard in my life.

914
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:04,760
Do you have anything to say to him?

915
00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:08,360
Yeah, I'm really sorry.

916
00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:14,760
That was the worst apology
I've ever heard in my life.

917
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:22,720
I get that you were hurt,
and I do apologise deeply.

918
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:24,880
I have made lots of mistakes
in this process,

919
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:27,000
but I've acknowledged
what I've done.

920
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:29,160
But you never cared about me once.
Divarni, I have,

921
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:31,680
and I've made lots of mistakes
and I am really sorry.

922
00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:39,160
You're both seeing this
from very different perspectives,

923
00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:40,720
we can see, and you're gridlocked.

924
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:45,800
You're not going
to find agreement here.

925
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:48,480
What I think is important to talk
about today

926
00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:50,640
is what's happened more recently.

927
00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:54,440
Tell us about your decision making
to connect with Joe.

928
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:57,560
How did that change from that
platonic just reaching out

929
00:49:57,600 --> 00:49:59,240
to something more?

930
00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:04,440
I'd actually reached out
to a few people here.

931
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:06,800
It was a general just, like, search

932
00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:10,360
for, like, what the fuck
just happened connection.

933
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,720
I think it just escalated and it
went completely the wrong way.

934
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:19,960
And I think there wasn't a lot of
thought of Maeve or, like, Divarni,

935
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,520
but also in saying that it was
like done.

936
00:50:22,560 --> 00:50:26,200
Like, we were done,
out of this experiment.

937
00:50:26,240 --> 00:50:28,600
So we understand you went away on
a holiday with Joe.

938
00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:31,240
Mm. So tell us about that.

939
00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:36,760
It just ended up being, like,
debriefing

940
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:38,640
about, like, the experiment,

941
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:43,120
and Joe was very forthcoming.

942
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:45,120
Like, let's see
if this works past this,

943
00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:46,440
like, come to Manchester.

944
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:50,120
And I think maybe I wanted
that connection so bad,

945
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:53,080
I think I was like,
"Oh, my God, maybe it's here."

946
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:55,440
And turns out obviously it wasn't,

947
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:59,400
because it was the same situation
of what Joe did to Maeve.

948
00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:03,280
Could it be
that he was love bombing you?

949
00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:04,880
Oh, 1,000%.

950
00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:07,400
And you, Maeve?

951
00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:10,200
Yeah, you see that pattern here?

952
00:51:10,240 --> 00:51:12,080
Yeah, 1,000%.

953
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:13,760
There's some big lessons here.

954
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:17,440
You know, when you start seeing some
of that over the top behaviour.

955
00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:19,160
Yeah. You know, I've known you
for five minutes,

956
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:22,320
let's talk about moving in together,
or "I love you" all of a sudden.

957
00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,240
OK. Let's put that to bed for now.

958
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:31,440
I think it is important to think
a little bit more about last night.

959
00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:33,600
It must have been very hard
for you to come alone.

960
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:36,200
That took real courage.

961
00:51:36,240 --> 00:51:38,320
How did you feel before entering?

962
00:51:38,360 --> 00:51:39,680
Like I wanted to run.

963
00:51:39,720 --> 00:51:42,480
I bet. Yeah. Not great.

964
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:45,600
You learned a few things
at the dinner party.

965
00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:47,240
Tell us about it.

966
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:55,080
I sat down yesterday and Steven said
that he had used me to hurt Nelly.

967
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:58,640
Like, how dare you?
I'm going to be honest.

968
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:01,600
Like, I'm not a tool for you to use
to hurt someone else.

969
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:03,440
I am truly sorry for that.

970
00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:07,440
So angry with myself
first and foremost.

971
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,760
And it's not a good enough excuse.
It doesn't work for me.

972
00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:12,720
Honestly, I can't take it back,
but I can be so apologetic.

973
00:52:12,760 --> 00:52:14,680
You don't do that
to someone you care for.

974
00:52:14,720 --> 00:52:16,120
You also don't do that to me.

975
00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:17,440
I'm truly sorry for that.

976
00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:22,400
Well, credit to you for being here.
Joe's not.

977
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:25,880
He didn't show up to actually accept
the consequences

978
00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:28,080
of his own behaviour and you have,

979
00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,000
so credit where credit is due.

980
00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:34,640
What I'm more interested in is
we're at the end of this process,

981
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:36,640
and I'm really curious about
what you're both going

982
00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:39,120
to take away into your
next relationships.

983
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,840
I think going into my next
relationship, not be so forward

984
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:45,120
so straight away with my feelings
because obviously I got burned.

985
00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:47,680
OK, so perhaps protecting yourself
a little bit more,

986
00:52:47,720 --> 00:52:49,240
especially in those early days.

987
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:50,840
Yeah, 100%. Yeah.

988
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:54,120
Are you feeling optimistic? 100%.

989
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,200
Walking out of here
with head held high.

990
00:52:56,240 --> 00:52:57,680
Good for you. Yeah.

991
00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,520
Julia-Ruth, what have you learned?

992
00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:03,800
Just be a lot more thoughtful.

993
00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:07,600
Yeah, just respectful towards
people and their feelings, yeah.

994
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:09,040
And this is the empathy.

995
00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:11,840
This is the understanding
of your words and behaviour

996
00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:13,520
and the impact on other people.

997
00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:16,080
I think that's a really big takeaway
for you.

998
00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:21,040
Thank you both for being here.

999
00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:25,720
Takes guts, takes openness,
so good on you,

1000
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,480
and all the best
in your next relationships.

1001
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:30,200
Thank you. Thank you.

1002
00:53:30,240 --> 00:53:33,120
APPLAUSE

1003
00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:43,600
The next couple we'd like
to talk to is Sarah and Dean.

1004
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:44,840
Hello.

1005
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:47,400
Dean, I'd like to say that the
tattoos were absolutely...

1006
00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:48,560
Was absolutely amazing.

1007
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:52,440
Tell me a little bit more about your
reason for getting a tattoo.

1008
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:55,200
Sarah said she wanted a man
who was teeth, tan and tatted.

1009
00:53:55,240 --> 00:53:57,960
And I've got the teeth, I've got the
tan, now I've got the tats.

1010
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,320
I haven't now.
They wash off, yeah.

1011
00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:07,720
Sarah, last night we saw that Dean
still has feelings for you.

1012
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:13,800
We have been in constant
communication since the experiment.

1013
00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:16,280
I think you're just absolutely
incredible.

1014
00:54:16,320 --> 00:54:19,720
For me, you know, I wouldn't want to
lead him on or anything like that.

1015
00:54:19,760 --> 00:54:21,920
Just be happy
that we're really good friends.

1016
00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:25,560
And, Dean, what does
that feel like to have Sarah say

1017
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,000
that friendship is the only
thing she wants right now?

1018
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,960
When you're talking to someone
all the time and you're FaceTiming,

1019
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:33,240
I think you are close - and we went
through something like this

1020
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:34,640
together, and gradually over time,

1021
00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:36,480
the feelings were growing.
I was like, cool, like,

1022
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:39,160
you're a great person. And I think
if anyone got to know you

1023
00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:42,320
on that level, I think everyone
would probably fall for you as well.

1024
00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:43,640
I think that's kind of
what would happen.

1025
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,280
So I think it was just inevitable.
And maybe I was looking for things

1026
00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:47,880
that weren't there
because I wanted it.

1027
00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:49,280
I came here to find my wife,
and I thought,

1028
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:51,560
maybe this can still be a lovely
story where it still works,

1029
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:55,240
but there is a great friendship
there and I don't want to lose that.

1030
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:59,080
I think also what's really important
is to understand

1031
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:00,640
if Sarah met a new guy,

1032
00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:03,280
you also have to protect yourself
as well.

1033
00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:04,520
I think that's fair.

1034
00:55:04,560 --> 00:55:07,840
Going forward, I'm learning to put
my feelings first.

1035
00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:12,920
You two are stronger today than
the day that you both left.

1036
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:16,320
Yeah, definitely. And that means
that there's been incredible growth,

1037
00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:19,680
so, congratulations. Cheers.
Thank you, guys. Thank you.

1038
00:55:19,720 --> 00:55:21,440
APPLAUSE

1039
00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,400
Next up on the couch we have
Nelly and Steven.

1040
00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:31,200
APPLAUSE

1041
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:35,080
Hi. Hello.

1042
00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:36,800
Welcome.

1043
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:40,520
Now, clearly we have
a lot to talk about,

1044
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:44,200
but before we do, we would love
to take a look back at your journey.

1045
00:55:44,240 --> 00:55:45,600
Shall we? Yes.

1046
00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:52,440
Today is the biggest day of my life.

1047
00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:55,480
I'm just really, really hoping
that this is it

1048
00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:57,080
and this is the one.

1049
00:55:58,680 --> 00:56:00,120
Oh, wow.

1050
00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:03,080
She looks absolutely stunning.

1051
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:07,000
Tick, tick, tick.

1052
00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:09,720
A match made in heaven.

1053
00:56:12,240 --> 00:56:13,720
I'm having the best time.

1054
00:56:16,720 --> 00:56:20,440
Nelly, can you see yourself
falling for me?

1055
00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:23,280
It's very hard for me to say.

1056
00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:27,360
No pressure, girl.

1057
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:30,680
Yeah. Yeah.

1058
00:56:30,720 --> 00:56:36,040
I think I'm so afraid of, um,
being so emotionally,

1059
00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:38,360
like, open and vulnerable
to someone.

1060
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:41,080
Then they break my heart.

1061
00:56:43,880 --> 00:56:47,840
Let's be honest. You haven't been
the same since the honeymoon.

1062
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:50,720
You're speaking about ex-partners
that you've been with.

1063
00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:53,160
I'm finding it fucking laughable,
Nelly. Let's be honest.

1064
00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:56,080
These are my feelings,
and I'm not finding it very funny.

1065
00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:57,800
Don't fucking antagonise me, Nelly.

1066
00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:01,000
Sorry?

1067
00:57:01,040 --> 00:57:02,760
Said "Fucking idiot."

1068
00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:08,760
This week has been awful.
It's been hell.

1069
00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:10,320
I just, I don't know who you are.

1070
00:57:11,720 --> 00:57:14,360
What you saw in the honeymoon,
that's me.

1071
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:16,960
Listen, if you cook for April
and you haven't cooked for me,

1072
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:18,360
that's where I'll get real mad.

1073
00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:20,880
Oh, look at that.
That looks stunning.

1074
00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:26,000
Cheers for breakfast in bed.
Have you ever done this for Nelly?

1075
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:27,640
Um, no.

1076
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:33,800
A couple of days with another woman
and you're, like, more checked out.

1077
00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:36,000
Like, what happened?
Did you guys flirt with each other?

1078
00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:38,840
There's been no flirting.
No flirting whatsoever? No flirting.

1079
00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:44,320
Do you think it's appropriate
to be on a dating website?

1080
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:45,920
Sorry?

1081
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:49,720
No, I'm not on anything.
Yes, you are.

1082
00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:51,560
And that was today.

1083
00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:56,000
I'm going to take this off.
This marriage is over.

1084
00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:02,920
That is not me on Hinge. So you
think someone's catfishing you?

1085
00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:04,040
Absolutely.

1086
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:06,600
So someone's walking around
with your face, then? Yeah.

1087
00:58:09,360 --> 00:58:12,160
But, yeah, I've been having a little
conversation with someone.

1088
00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:15,880
Steven. Speaking about potentially
going to grab drinks together.

1089
00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,560
Not on a one to one. I said, look,
we'll go for a drink together.

1090
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:23,840
If you were telling the 100% truth,

1091
00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:26,560
you'd be whipping your phone out
so fucking fast.

1092
00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:28,600
I'm bored trying to prove myself.

1093
00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:30,160
Steven constantly lies.

1094
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:33,160
I think this is a pattern,
and do you know what?

1095
00:58:33,200 --> 00:58:36,520
Enjoy. I think you might be well
suited to each other.

1096
00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:41,040
Steven, you're gross! It's loser
behaviour. I would be embarrassed.

1097
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:44,600
Damn.

1098
00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:53,840
Nelly, was there anything that you
saw there that was news to you?

1099
00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:58,080
The only thing I really wouldn't
have known about was partner swap,

1100
00:58:58,120 --> 00:58:59,440
because I wasn't there.

1101
00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:02,840
So Steven was flirting with her.
I don't think I'm that surprised.

1102
00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:08,360
You did that and you lied about it.

1103
00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:11,920
Can you now see the impact
of that on Nelly?

1104
00:59:11,960 --> 00:59:14,280
Absolutely. It's a massive slap in
the face, isn't it?

1105
00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:16,440
You don't deserve that. No-one does.

1106
00:59:17,520 --> 00:59:19,960
The impact it had on Nelly
is she was doubting herself.

1107
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:23,120
Yeah. You know, and we saw
so much doubt in you. Yeah.

1108
00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:24,560
And so much confusion,

1109
00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:26,480
which is what, you know,
some of Steven's behaviour,

1110
00:59:26,520 --> 00:59:29,080
which, you know,
to be fair, was pretty manipulative.

1111
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:31,080
And you were starting to think,
is it me?

1112
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:34,320
Yeah. Am I doing something here
to create this situation?

1113
00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:36,440
My massive regret,
which I've said already,

1114
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:38,920
like you being on the receiving
end of this.

1115
00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:43,400
Not taking stock when I should,
taking accountability when I should.

1116
00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:46,440
It's scary that, you know,
you would put me ahead of yourself

1117
00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:48,040
throughout this whole journey

1118
00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:50,360
and how she wanted to make me feel
and all these things,

1119
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:53,040
I'm thinking, why's she putting me
first, ahead of herself?

1120
00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:54,920
What is she seeing in me?

1121
00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:56,680
But again,
I'm just deflecting things

1122
00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:58,760
going, well, no, it's on you, Nelly.
It's on you, Nelly.

1123
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:01,320
Like, I didn't even give you
the bare minimum.

1124
01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:04,240
She's the first genuine,
real person I've met,

1125
01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:06,480
and I'm like, I've done this to her.

1126
01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:08,600
How do you think Nelly feels now?

1127
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,320
Hurt, ang... Like... I'm not angry.

1128
01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:13,720
This is how I thinking
you might be perceiving it.

1129
01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:17,000
We heard you last night
essentially say to Nelly

1130
01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:21,280
that you were messaging
Julia-Ruth to hurt her.

1131
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:24,200
Yeah. This is demonstrating
incredible spite.

1132
01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,280
Yeah.

1133
01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:28,400
I think what would really hurt me,
it's just the deceit.

1134
01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:31,920
Like even seeing the texts
from Steven to Julia-Ruth saying,

1135
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,560
to be honest, at that time you would
have stolen me away from her.

1136
01:00:34,600 --> 01:00:36,040
That was, we're talking
about week two.

1137
01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:38,360
Or I was so tempted
to knock on your door.

1138
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:40,840
I just think, how am I sleeping
in the same bed with this person

1139
01:00:40,880 --> 01:00:42,800
who is so different
to what they're saying?

1140
01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:46,520
Because you're good at lying,
do you know what I mean?

1141
01:00:46,560 --> 01:00:48,560
I find that so bizarre.

1142
01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:52,400
Here I've been the worst
version of myself,

1143
01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:54,720
and I don't think
I can get any worse.

1144
01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:56,680
You've made me look inwards
at myself.

1145
01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:58,760
You're the first person that's
made me do it and think,

1146
01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:01,480
fucking hell, like, Steve, fix up.

1147
01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:03,880
But no-one else
would have done that.

1148
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:07,480
Can I just stop you? I mean, it
sounds textbook what you're saying,

1149
01:01:07,520 --> 01:01:10,600
if I'm honest.
The reflection has been so deep

1150
01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:13,080
that everything you're saying
is I'm just so bad,

1151
01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:14,760
everyone else is really good.

1152
01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:16,560
It just doesn't add up.

1153
01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:18,600
It's not textbook.

1154
01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:21,640
It's raw.
I am a different person now.

1155
01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:25,400
Like, what you unfortunately,
had of me in this period,

1156
01:01:25,440 --> 01:01:27,560
you're never going to see again.

1157
01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:29,760
In my many years of working
with people,

1158
01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:31,640
I don't normally see such
a turnaround

1159
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:33,120
in such a short space of time.

1160
01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:40,920
Nelly, do you believe that he's
really taking accountability?

1161
01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:45,960
I want to, but then I'm also like,
well, if I didn't expose the truth

1162
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:49,280
and circulate all those messages
so he couldn't run away from it,

1163
01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:51,400
I feel that maybe he'd still
be sat here

1164
01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:53,200
saying the same thing as before.

1165
01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:57,040
Steven, why should she believe you?

1166
01:01:57,080 --> 01:02:00,720
Look, given what's happened, she has
every reason not to believe it.

1167
01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:02,840
But I've come here knowing full well

1168
01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:06,200
I was going to get the heat
and questions. Rightfully so.

1169
01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:09,040
I sound like I'm here
to front things up.

1170
01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:10,320
Like everything I've taken in,

1171
01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:13,000
I'm thinking, like, Steve,
to really grow as a person

1172
01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:14,760
and really be
that best version of yourself,

1173
01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:17,000
you've got to be able
to allow yourself to be vulnerable.

1174
01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:20,000
I don't need to be hiding
behind anything any more.

1175
01:02:20,040 --> 01:02:21,080
I really don't.

1176
01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:24,000
I know you did some things
to hurt me,

1177
01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:27,120
but my question is, are you going to
finally admit the dating app thing?

1178
01:02:30,120 --> 01:02:32,640
I've acted cowardly.
It's not nice knowing that,

1179
01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:34,560
obviously knowing how I've made
you feel.

1180
01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:36,720
Steven, you talk and talk
and talk and talk

1181
01:02:36,760 --> 01:02:38,600
to try and talk yourself
out of this.

1182
01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:40,120
Just own it now,

1183
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:41,960
because otherwise it's going
to be bad for you.

1184
01:02:42,000 --> 01:02:43,880
Was it true?

1185
01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:49,200
You swore that you did not do this.
All right. Fucking hell.

1186
01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:51,280
OK. Put my hands up to it.

1187
01:02:56,720 --> 01:03:00,760
Let's just be clear. You're now
saying that despite everything

1188
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:02,960
you said that time on the couch,

1189
01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:06,360
you actually lied. You did have
a profile on a dating app.

1190
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:08,840
Yeah.

1191
01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:22,800
You swore that you did not do this.

1192
01:03:22,840 --> 01:03:24,680
All right. Fucking hell.

1193
01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:26,480
OK. Put my hands up to it.

1194
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:33,360
Let's just be clear.

1195
01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:36,640
You're now saying that despite
everything you said

1196
01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:38,160
that time on the couch,

1197
01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:41,840
you actually lied. You did have
a profile on a dating app.

1198
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:43,960
Yeah.

1199
01:03:49,280 --> 01:03:50,880
That's sick.

1200
01:03:50,920 --> 01:03:52,560
You've been caught out.

1201
01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:57,800
I've owned up to it now, tonight.

1202
01:03:57,840 --> 01:03:59,200
I'm fronting it up.

1203
01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:05,600
You swore, and now, weeks later,
you've had some sort of epiphany.

1204
01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:08,720
You are saying what you think
everybody wants to hear.

1205
01:04:08,760 --> 01:04:11,680
It does not add up.
You've not once sat with her

1206
01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:14,480
and said, "I am sorry,"
and then stopped talking.

1207
01:04:14,520 --> 01:04:18,320
I get it, but... You can hear
the emotional impact in this group.

1208
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:21,120
You sat here and you lied to us,

1209
01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:24,640
you lied to Nelly, and you lied to
all of your so-called friends here.

1210
01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:26,400
And it was a blatant lie.

1211
01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:28,920
So it's had an impact
on everybody here.

1212
01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:39,320
I know it's not been easy for you to
listen to all of our disappointment,

1213
01:04:39,360 --> 01:04:42,000
but I think that this
is the consequence of lying.

1214
01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:44,920
And I think that you have had to
sadly learn

1215
01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:46,960
a really big lesson tonight.

1216
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:48,920
No, absolutely.
It is my massive regret.

1217
01:04:48,960 --> 01:04:51,960
I hate that fact
that I've done this to you.

1218
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:55,440
Nelly, we're going to come back to
you because you've been hurt.

1219
01:04:58,240 --> 01:05:01,280
And you had the most
incredible expectations

1220
01:05:01,320 --> 01:05:03,120
coming into this process.

1221
01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:06,600
And I'm just really keen to hear
what this experience

1222
01:05:06,640 --> 01:05:10,120
has meant to you
and perhaps how it's changed you.

1223
01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:14,160
I know I had a bit
of a rubbish time,

1224
01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:15,280
but my gut is always right.

1225
01:05:15,320 --> 01:05:16,960
And I think before I always
told myself,

1226
01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:20,120
no, you are that strong woman.
You can call it out, you can see it.

1227
01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:22,280
But I think I was just telling
myself that

1228
01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:24,680
and it's only now
that I do truly believe it.

1229
01:05:24,720 --> 01:05:27,040
I've never felt more confident
or more strong,

1230
01:05:27,080 --> 01:05:30,720
and I've never loved myself more.
Like, to feel the way I do now,

1231
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:32,680
I would honestly do it
all over again.

1232
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:38,520
Is there anything in wrapping up
that you'd like to say to Steven?

1233
01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:42,840
I don't think there is.

1234
01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:45,400
I think, you know,
our experience was our experience.

1235
01:05:45,440 --> 01:05:49,280
I just hope that you can really take
from this, and I'm sure you will.

1236
01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:52,080
What about you, Steve? Anything
you'd like to say to Nelly?

1237
01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:56,000
Honestly, bottom of my heart,
like, the deepest of sorrows.

1238
01:06:01,600 --> 01:06:04,520
Steven, you basically
ripped her heart out

1239
01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:06,200
and you stepped all over it.

1240
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:14,760
The beauty of this journey
is you can change.

1241
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:17,440
And I believe you will change.

1242
01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:19,080
Sorry, got leaky eyes at the minute.

1243
01:06:21,560 --> 01:06:25,560
What I will give you
is check on bravery.

1244
01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:30,120
Because you knew that
you were going to come in here,

1245
01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:32,480
you were going to have to face us,

1246
01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:35,160
and you would have to face
this young lady next to you.

1247
01:06:36,720 --> 01:06:38,240
And I applaud you for that.

1248
01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:43,400
I didn't want to cry,
but, yes, thank you.

1249
01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:58,080
No-one deserves that.
Sorry. I'm truly sorry.

1250
01:06:58,120 --> 01:06:59,160
Thank you.

1251
01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:00,640
And that felt genuine.

1252
01:07:00,680 --> 01:07:02,080
Yeah. That did.

1253
01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:04,960
Good on you, Steven.

1254
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:07,000
We look forward
to seeing how you work

1255
01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:09,320
through this self-development
process.

1256
01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:12,480
And, Nelly, we look forward
to all of the great love stories

1257
01:07:12,520 --> 01:07:14,200
that you're about to step into.

1258
01:07:14,240 --> 01:07:17,000
Can't wait! We cannot wait too.
Cannot wait.

1259
01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:19,560
Thank you both so much.
Been incredible.

1260
01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:21,160
Yeah, thank you both.

1261
01:07:21,200 --> 01:07:23,360
APPLAUSE

1262
01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:31,200
Thank you.

1263
01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:33,200
I know I've let a lot
of people down.

1264
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:38,080
I'm owning up to things. I'm not
going to run away from things

1265
01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:39,680
or hide from things any more,

1266
01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:41,720
and it's going to help me
grow better as a person.

1267
01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:45,480
Who's ready for some love?

1268
01:07:45,520 --> 01:07:47,160
CHEERING

1269
01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:49,640
If we could have Abi and John,
come on up!

1270
01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:53,120
APPLAUSE

1271
01:07:53,160 --> 01:07:56,280
Hi! Never had such a
warm welcome, I love it.

1272
01:07:56,320 --> 01:07:58,400
Thanks, guys.

1273
01:07:58,440 --> 01:07:59,760
That's because we all love you.

1274
01:07:59,800 --> 01:08:02,120
Aww! Oh, we love you, too.
We love you all, yeah.

1275
01:08:02,160 --> 01:08:05,920
All right, so how do we feel
right now? It's amazing.

1276
01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:07,280
Cloud nine. Honestly.

1277
01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:09,920
We've just had the absolute time
of our life.

1278
01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:11,400
Well, on that note,

1279
01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:15,080
let's take a look
at the Abi and John love story.

1280
01:08:25,840 --> 01:08:27,880
I want to have
my happily ever after.

1281
01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:31,680
I've got the horse,
I've got the carriage.

1282
01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:33,920
I want to meet my Prince Charming.

1283
01:08:40,400 --> 01:08:42,280
Hi.

1284
01:08:42,320 --> 01:08:43,520
Lovely to meet you.

1285
01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:44,800
And you.

1286
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:47,000
This does feel like someone
that I could fall in love with.

1287
01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:53,960
The smile hasn't left my face
since I met you, really.

1288
01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:02,200
Oh. Oh!

1289
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:04,320
Hi. Hi!

1290
01:09:05,600 --> 01:09:06,720
Hi. Hi.

1291
01:09:06,760 --> 01:09:08,760
We have, like,
such a good connection,

1292
01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:11,760
and I've not felt like this before,
like, with anyone.

1293
01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:13,600
He makes me feel like it's OK
to be me.

1294
01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:16,480
I'm on the love road.

1295
01:09:17,960 --> 01:09:20,280
I'm just really excited
for what's to come. Same.

1296
01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:22,000
Let's have some fun. Yeah.

1297
01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:32,040
I love you.
And I am in love with you.

1298
01:09:32,080 --> 01:09:34,880
I do, I do love you.
I do love you.

1299
01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:38,840
This is what I've wanted
my entire life

1300
01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:42,000
and I can't believe
that I've found my soulmate.

1301
01:09:42,040 --> 01:09:45,640
I came home and told my wife
that I love her!

1302
01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:50,760
And she said it back!

1303
01:09:53,480 --> 01:09:56,640
I feel so happy.
It's nice I've got my John now.

1304
01:09:56,680 --> 01:09:59,160
This what we want.
That's all we wanted,

1305
01:09:59,200 --> 01:10:01,000
and now we're complete.

1306
01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:03,720
You can plan your life now.

1307
01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:08,160
I've got an excitement back
for life.

1308
01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:10,880
For once in my life,
I'm not worried about the future.

1309
01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:12,480
If anything, I'm excited.

1310
01:10:12,520 --> 01:10:16,320
There is nothing more certain
than our future together.

1311
01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:22,880
The I became we,
the future became us.

1312
01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:24,840
and my heart became yours.

1313
01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:30,960
You are the love of my life.

1314
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:33,240
I've waited my whole life
to feel like this,

1315
01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:35,800
and I'd walk through every one of
those years again

1316
01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:37,120
if they led me back to you.

1317
01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:47,920
APPLAUSE

1318
01:10:51,440 --> 01:10:54,520
So how would you describe
the emotions you feel right now?

1319
01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:56,800
Just love. Yeah. That's it.

1320
01:10:56,840 --> 01:11:00,360
It's just I came into this
experiment wanting

1321
01:11:00,400 --> 01:11:04,960
to find someone true, genuine, and
to spend the rest of my life with,

1322
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:07,400
and I found that. Yeah.

1323
01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:11,960
We've got hopes and dreams
from our wedding day,

1324
01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:15,800
but now we've realised all of that
and we're on the step, like,

1325
01:11:15,840 --> 01:11:18,040
for the rest of our lives together.

1326
01:11:18,080 --> 01:11:20,680
Wow. That's so strong to say.

1327
01:11:20,720 --> 01:11:22,680
We're with each other
for the rest of our lives.

1328
01:11:22,720 --> 01:11:24,800
Yeah.

1329
01:11:24,840 --> 01:11:27,040
Like, it is a massive thing
to say that,

1330
01:11:27,080 --> 01:11:32,320
but I just, I've never felt like
this before about, like, anybody

1331
01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:34,240
my entire, like, life.

1332
01:11:34,280 --> 01:11:37,400
And I feel like John's
helped me grow as a person

1333
01:11:37,440 --> 01:11:39,440
and made me love myself again.

1334
01:11:39,480 --> 01:11:41,840
And I feel like that's the most
amazing gift

1335
01:11:41,880 --> 01:11:43,800
that a partner could ever give you.

1336
01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:44,920
I feel exactly the same.

1337
01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:46,480
I've never felt this before
about a person,

1338
01:11:46,520 --> 01:11:49,360
but also I've never felt like this
about myself,

1339
01:11:49,400 --> 01:11:50,800
which is how Abi makes me feel.

1340
01:11:50,840 --> 01:11:54,280
You know, I feel like the most
confident version of myself.

1341
01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:56,520
And, like, because I'm looking
at Abi and going,

1342
01:11:56,560 --> 01:11:59,400
oh, the experts have matched me
with this amazing lady,

1343
01:11:59,440 --> 01:12:01,200
so I feel amazing about myself.

1344
01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:04,800
You feel like I'm her match.
Wow, I must be a good guy. Wow.

1345
01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:09,720
So what is the next step?

1346
01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:14,160
We've discussed kind of like
we do want to move in and, yeah,

1347
01:12:14,200 --> 01:12:16,560
like start a family and just,
you know, all those things

1348
01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:17,960
that we've always wanted to do.

1349
01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:20,360
Very early, we were having
conversations about, like,

1350
01:12:20,400 --> 01:12:22,480
you know, what do you want in life?
Do you want children or not?

1351
01:12:22,520 --> 01:12:25,320
Because I've got a real desire
to be a dad.

1352
01:12:25,360 --> 01:12:26,840
And Abi also wants a family,
as well.

1353
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:30,200
How many are we talking?
Let's start with one.

1354
01:12:30,240 --> 01:12:32,360
Let's start with one.
I mean, there's none at the moment.

1355
01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:34,160
So one to start
and then we'll go from there.

1356
01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:35,800
OK.

1357
01:12:35,840 --> 01:12:38,880
So now, here's a question.

1358
01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:42,040
If you could go back one year

1359
01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:45,520
and tell yourself anything,
what would it be?

1360
01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:49,840
The best is yet to come.
Just hang on in there.

1361
01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:53,600
Like, your time is coming
and it will be worth the wait.

1362
01:12:54,800 --> 01:12:57,840
All right. Yeah, I'd reassure
that guy that had so many worries,

1363
01:12:57,880 --> 01:13:00,560
like, it's going to be OK.
You're enough.

1364
01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:05,240
I'd tell him to just hold on tight
because Abi's coming.

1365
01:13:08,560 --> 01:13:12,200
You two are a testament
to hope in love.

1366
01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:16,640
But since this is your last moment
within the experiment,

1367
01:13:16,680 --> 01:13:18,560
what would you like to say
to each other?

1368
01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:24,000
Thank you for making me feel like
that person standing

1369
01:13:24,040 --> 01:13:27,840
at the top of the aisle was enough,
after so many years of doubt

1370
01:13:27,880 --> 01:13:31,480
of whether I was going to be right
for somebody.

1371
01:13:31,520 --> 01:13:34,800
And thank you for giving me hope
to be excited for the future.

1372
01:13:39,400 --> 01:13:41,280
Thank you, first of all,
for being my husband,

1373
01:13:41,320 --> 01:13:43,480
for accepting me as I am

1374
01:13:43,520 --> 01:13:47,840
and for just giving me that
confidence to know that I am enough.

1375
01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:50,880
I deserve to be loved
and I deserve to be happy.

1376
01:13:50,920 --> 01:13:56,080
And just thank you for giving me the
future that I've always dreamed of.

1377
01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:57,640
You're very welcome.

1378
01:13:57,680 --> 01:14:01,120
APPLAUSE

1379
01:14:05,960 --> 01:14:08,360
So thank you for inspiring us,

1380
01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:12,240
and thank you for showing us
what love looks like in action.

1381
01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:15,000
Good luck to both of you. Thank you.

1382
01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:16,680
APPLAUSE

1383
01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:25,880
It might be the end
of the experiment,

1384
01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:29,040
but this is only the start
of our future.

1385
01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:33,720
I've got everything that I asked
for and more out of this.

1386
01:14:33,760 --> 01:14:37,080
I know that Abi is going to be
with me for the rest of my life.

1387
01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:39,120
Oh!

1388
01:14:42,040 --> 01:14:45,240
Never thought that when I came into
this experiment, I would find you.

1389
01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:50,120
And I would choose you over
and over again, and I always will.

1390
01:14:50,160 --> 01:14:51,760
love you.

1391
01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:53,200
I love you.

1392
01:14:56,880 --> 01:14:58,600
It's OK.

1393
01:14:58,640 --> 01:15:02,080
Without this journey, I would never
have loved myself the way I do.

1394
01:15:05,080 --> 01:15:08,160
This has completely changed my life.

1395
01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:10,360
I'm so glad I got matched
to this amazing woman.

1396
01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:13,840
Mm. Mwah!
