2025 Couples: Who Is Still Together?
Some pairs left us with hope for wedding bells, while others confirmed splits even before the reunion episode aired. Here’s a detailed breakdown for each couple.
Lauren and Eliot
Status: Not Together
Their relationship was marked by turbulence nearly from the outset. After only three days as a married couple, Eliot dramatically exited the honeymoon, which set the tone for their remaining time on the show. Despite a brief attempt to reconcile later in the experiment, both ultimately recognized their incompatibility and decided to part ways.
Katie and Tim
Status: Not Together
Katie and Tim initially appeared to have promising chemistry, but cracks grew as the weekly commitment ceremonies revealed persistent disagreements on core values and future plans. Rumors swirled near the end about mounting tension, and at the season’s reunion, the pair confirmed their split and shared their mutual respect for one another—even if love wasn’t in the cards.
Ashleigh and Jake
Status: Not Together
With a tender start and viewers rooting for success, Ashleigh and Jake looked like sure bets. Unfortunately, as daily life together began, different communication styles and clashing routines led to growing emotional distance. Both expressed gratitude for their shared experience, but confirmed they were no longer together.
Rhi and Jeff
Status: Still Together
Former flames before the experiment, Rhi and Jeff’s journey was a true story of second chances. Although initially they seemed to be stuck in the friend zone, their bond intensified in later weeks, culminating with heartfelt final vows. During the reunion, the couple revealed they had moved in together and told reporters they were “falling in love.” According to Jeff, starting afresh in a new home played a pivotal role in cementing their commitment.
- Highlights: Successfully transitioned friendship into romance
- Moved in together after filming
- Spoke openly about building a future beyond the show
Fans widely consider Rhi and Jeff the stand-out success story of the season.
Jamie and Dave
Status: Not Together
Jamie and Dave were an early fan favorite, exuding playful energy and optimism. However, as the experiment progressed and real-world pressures mounted, the relationship faltered. Though they recommitted at final vows, by the time of the reunion, Jamie revealed they had separated. Both cited genuine efforts but acknowledged that their romantic connection had faded.
Sierah and Billy
Status: Not Together
This pair never quite found common ground. Despite initial efforts to bridge their differences, mismatched expectations around intimacy and lifestyle led them to amicably part ways well before final vows.
Awhina and Adrian
Status: Not Together
Awhina and Adrian’s time in the experiment was marked by frequent disagreements and unresolved tensions. For both, the experience served as a learning opportunity rather than a pathway to lasting love. Friends of the couple have confirmed they have no intention of rekindling their relationship.
Morena and Tony
Status: Not Together
An initially hopeful match, Morena and Tony both struggled with trust and communication. Despite a few breakthrough moments, incompatibilities became more apparent, leading to an amicable split before the show’s end.
Jacqui and Ryan
Status: Not Together
Jacqui and Ryan chose to part ways after acknowledging fundamental differences in their personal goals. Sources close to the pair suggest both are content, having grown from the experience if not finding romance.
Carina and Paul
Status: Not Together
After some light-hearted moments and initial attraction, Carina and Paul found the experiment exposed incompatibilities difficult to overcome. The couple separated before reaching final vows, stating the show had helped clarify what they truly needed in future partners.
Beth and Teejay
Status: Not Together
This couple entered MAFS as hopeful romantics but soon realized their lifestyles and priorities didn’t align off camera. They amicably departed before the show concluded.
Lauren and Clint
Status: Not Together
Despite early attempts to build a connection, Lauren and Clint were challenged by differences that proved insurmountable. Both chose to go their separate ways, expressing gratitude for the lessons learned.
Veronica and Eliot
Status: Not Together
