Married at First Sight Australia season 10: Which couples are still together?
We need answers now
Time really does fly, as it's now been over a year since the cast of Married at First Sight Australia season 10 first tied the knot. Though the season didn't begin airing until January of this year, the 12 couples in the series were saying their wedding vows this time last year in September and October 2022.
So given it's what should be many couples' one year anniversaries from season 10, we're very intrigued to know who is still together from that chaotic season. And what a chaotic season it was. From butt-dials, to cheating revelations, to serious declarations of love we were taken on an emotional rollercoaster in season 10.
But of the 12 couples who made it down the aisle, which are still together now, a year after they first got married? Here's everything you need to know about which season 10 Married At First Sight Australia couples are still together.
Melinda and Layton
Relationship status: Broken up
During their wedding ceremony 32-year-old Melinda wasn't initially impressed with her husband 35-year-old Layton's looks.
However, as the series has developed the pair seem like one of the stronger couplings, though they've had a few issues such as when Melinda overheard Harrison say to Layton he thought his relationship with Melinda was "toxic".
Melinda confronted Harrison's wife Bronte about it and the pair argued, with Bronte telling Layton about the argument, leaving him unimpressed.
However, when it came to the final vow ceremony the couple opted to stay together with some very lovely vows, where they both said they were falling in love with each other.
The couple stayed together following their time on the show, often posting pictures of their lives together.
However, we now have some very bad news for you, as the couple officially announced on 11th October they are no longer together, saying they have decided to take some time apart from their relationship.
They shared the following statement on their Instagram Stories: "Hi all – we wanted to keep this private for the time being, but we have a lot of supporters that are invested in the relationship and owe it to you to be transparent.
"After a lot of thought and consideration, we have sadly decided to both take time apart 😔.
"We still care very deeply for each other and this doesn't mean our lives can't come back together, but as of now, we think this decision is for the best.
"We want to express our heartfelt gratitude for all your support throughout our journey, it has meant the world to us. We hope you can understand and ask for your kindness and respect during this time."
Sorry, but is anyone else sobbing? Here's hoping they're both doing OK following the breakup.
Lyndall and Cameron
Relationship status: Broken up
27-year-old accountant Lyndall and 27-year-old carpenter Cameron were the first couple to get married on this season of MAFS Australia.
The pair got on well and appeared to be going from strength to strength until family week when Cameron refused to hug Lyndall. The issue caused both their mums to get involved and caused a rift between the pair.
Things then got worse after Cameron revealed he could be working away from Lyndall for up to six months of the year, which she was not best pleased with.
Then during the homestay week things were tense between the couple with Lyndall saying she felt Cameron treated her like a "mate". Cameron however, said he hadn't grown up with affection and so found it difficult to express it.
And during the final vow exchange Lyndall didn't hold back in her opinion of Cameron, saying he couldn't compromise, and that she now felt like a burden.
In a historic moment Lyndall didn't stick around to hear what Cameron had to say and walked off, saying she wanted to build a life she was proud of.
So yeah it's safe to say these two are no longer together.
Since then Cam has shared he is in a new relationship with a woman named Cheyanne, who he had previously known before going into the experiment.
Bronte and Harrison
Relationship status: Broken up
28-year-old beauty educator Bronte and 32-year-old carpenter Harrison were the second pair to get married and faced problems from day one when Bronte's friend accused Harrison of dating someone on the outside.
They then faced trouble over their honeymoon when Harrison told Bronte he wasn't sexually attracted to her. They then lived in separate apartments in the complex and during the first commitment ceremony Harrison said he wanted to leave.
During intimacy week Bronte refused to go on a date with Harrison, but the pair did decide to give things another go.
They grew closer over the experiment with Bronte saying she trusted Harrison after he took a woman's number on a night out and then deleted it.
After retreat week things seemed to not be going well at all, but the couple shocked everyone when they opted to stay in the experiment. There was a time period when they actually seemed quite close, standing up for each other during the commitment ceremonies and sharing opinions about their fellow participants.
But during the final dinner party their relationship came to a firm end, with Harrison saying he didn't appreciate the way Bronte and her sister spoke to him during the homestay.
Bronte eventually exited the dinner party saying their relationship was over. "I'm done with you. I'm done with this man. Harrison, we're done," she said at the time. "We're over, and I honestly don't wanna see you again."
Since then, Harrison has gone public with his new girlfriend, photographed holding hands with a woman named Gina, at Sydney's Coogee Pavilion in March 2023.
Sandy and Dan
Relationship status: Broken up
36-year-old Sandy and 42-year-old Dan were next to head down the aisle, with Sandy's family not attending the wedding, as they didn't feel comfortable about it.
Whilst they initially seemed to get on, with the pair sailing through the first three weeks of commitment ceremonies and dinner parties, things didn't go as well as they could have.
First, the pair clashed over their use of 'me time', with Dan questioning why Sandy didn't like going in the ocean and running in the morning like he did.
Then, the pair were at the centre of a pocket dial scandal, when one of the other brides, Evelyn, told Sandy she had heard Dan say some unkind things about Sandy when her husband Rupert butt dialled her whilst out with Dan. Sandy was shocked when she heard this as Dan had allegedly told her he was out with his daughter. Dan has since apologised for his comments to Sandy, releasing a statement on Instagram.
The couple ended their relationship during the fourth commitment ceremony.
Dan then went on to date Samantha, who had been a guest at his wedding to Sandy, however the pair have now broken up.
Claire and Jesse
Relationship status: Broken up
31-year-old Claire and 30-year-old Jesse seemed like a match made in heaven at their wedding ceremony, but things begun to unravel when Jesse got the "ick" when Claire spoke about her love of crystals.
Things went from bad to worse, after Jesse told Claire to "shush" during their honeymoon. They continued to clash throughout their marriage and just as things seemed to be going ok, Claire ended up kissing fellow contestant Adam.
Claire denied anything ever happened with Adam and she and Jesse got back on track, however, a few weeks later she revealed the truth.
After the drama blew up at one of the dinner parties, with their fellow contestants taking sides, Claire apologised to Jesse, and vowed to stay in the experiment in a bid to show him how sorry she was.
While Jesse opted to leave, the pair stayed in the experiment due to Claire writing stay. It looked like they were back on track, making it through the following week and looking closer than ever. However, they soon ended their relationship and broke up in the fifth commitment ceremony.
Despite breaking up, the couple appear to be on relatively good terms.
Tahnee and Ollie
Relationship status: Together
27-year-old Tahnee and 26-year-old Ollie are the youngest couple in this year's experiment. From their wedding day onwards they have been completely besotted with each other and haven't really faced any issues.
Seriously, it's hard to think of a dinner party or commitment ceremony when they were centre of attention!
During the final vow ceremony the couple opted to stay together, sharing some very cute and meaningful vows. As for if they're still together now? Yep!
According to Yahoo Lifestyle, the couple have officially moved in together with Ollie moving from Perth to Sydney to be with Tahnee. "Once filming wrapped in December, Ollie never really returned to Perth and has been living with Tahnee ever since," an inside source told the outlet. Awh!
Since the series ended the pair have frequently been sharing sweet couple pics together on their social media and recently celebrated their one year anniversary.
Janelle and Adam
Relationship status: Broken up
28-year-old Janelle and 35-year-old Adam's relationship did not start off well, with Janelle having doubts about Adam's career and her brothers finding out Adam had cheated in a previous relationship.
However, just as things seemed to be going ok in their relationship, Adam kissed Claire, and things never recovered for himself and Janelle.
The pair decided to leave the experiment single in the third commitment ceremony, after Adam failed to show remorse for kissing Claire.
Caitlin and Shannon
Relationship status: Broken up
Though they had a good wedding day, things quickly went downhill for 27-year-old Caitlin and 30-year-old Shannon.
During a photo ranking task Shannon didn't pick Caitlin as the person he fancied most and later Caitlin heard Shannon on the phone with his ex. He later admitted he was still in love with his ex, whom he shares a child with.
Though they stayed for another week, it became clear Shannon wasn't over his ex and said some incredibly unkind things to Caitlin about her appearance.
After a very intense couch session with the experts, Shannon and Caitlin split up during the second recommitment ceremony.
Since the experiment ended, Caitlin has revealed she is now in a new relationship with an osteopathy student named Kobe Barton.
Alyssa and Duncan
Relationship status: Broken up
35-year-old Alyssa and 36-year-old Duncan have certainly overcome numerous challenges in their relationship. However their first hurdle came when Alyssa revealed she had once knowingly engaged in an affair, which surprised Duncan.
Early on in the series Alyssa felt uncomfortable with intimacy due to her Mormon upbringing. Later, the pair had a misunderstanding when Duncan chose to play tennis with the other men, instead of spending time with Alyssa.
Feedback week revealed some very harsh truth for the couple, with Duncan saying he felt 'shut out' from Alyssa and claimed Alyssa focused too much on the negative.
Alyssa said she was anxious Duncan would "cut and run" when things became too difficult in the real world. She also believed Duncan wouldn't understand "what it's like to have a child."
Despite this, Alyssa headed into the final vow ceremony hoping the couple could make things work. However Duncan opted to end their relationship, telling his sister ahead of the vows that he felt he was "treading on egg shells" and felt "rejected" in the marriage.
Since then, Duncan and fellow contestant Evelyn have confirmed they are in a relationship and have moved in together following their time on the series.
Melissa and Josh
Relationship status: Broken up
41-year-old Melissa and 40-year-old Josh were the oldest couple in the experiment this year.
Though the couple appeared to get on well at first, they had big problems with intimacy and what details they were willing to share with everyone.
They failed to connect, and by the second commitment ceremony, Josh opted to leave due to the fact he felt disrespected by Melissa over her choice of words about his manhood. Despite Melissa choosing to stay (usually if one person decides to stay, they both have to) the experts thought it was best for the pair to leave the experiment.
During the commitment ceremony Josh appeared extremely unhappy and claimed Melissa had said he wasn't "man enough". After seeing his pain the experts offered him the choice to leave the experiment which he took.
Tayla and Hugo
Relationship status: Broken up
27-year-old Tayla and 32-year-old Hugo got on well enough during their wedding day, however it soon became apparent Tayla wasn't into Hugo.
While the pair tried to make a go of things, they had a Retreat Week, with Tayla left the experiment to return to Tasmania, without telling Hugo. She returned during the dinner party to give him "a second chance" but Hugo had enough and the couple announced their split to their fellow contestants that night
One the experiment came to an end and reportedly both returned to their hometowns more than 1,500km away from one another.
Evelyn and Rupert
Relationship status: Broken up
26-year-old Evelyn and 27-year-old Rupert were the last couple to get married in the experiment and joined for the third commitment ceremony.
While they had a fairly awkward wedding day (it's safe to say Rupert was *nervous*), their relationship seemed to be going well, with the pair standing up for each other during dinner parties and having nice things to say on the expert's couch.
However, when it came to the final vow ceremony Evelyn opted not to continue their relationship beyond the experiment, citing Rupert's "lack of effort" as one of the reasons she was ending it.
Rupert, meanwhile, took the break up in his stride, admitting that he didn't feel a spark either. He replied, "A platonic connection is not enough to sustain a healthy and loving relationship. I feel you didn't put your best foot forward to progress this relationship."
Speaking to 9Entertainment about what went wrong, Rupert explained, "I think our communication [style] is a lot different. It was just one of those things."
Evelyn, meanwhile, added, "I think our relationship wasn't strong enough to handle an argument. I feel like in those situations, it either brings you closer or further apart. Unfortunately, it was further apart for us."
Evelyn is now in a relationship with fellow cast member Duncan, having started their relationship after leaving the series.
