Where Married at First Sight UK couples are now as 2023 series kicks off on E4

Fan-favourite E4 show Married at First Sight UK is set to return to out screens this tonight in what promises to be a drama-filled series. The show sees couples put together by experts before they tie the knot the first time they lay eyes on one another.

Unsurprisingly, this does not always turn out too well for those involved and the 2022 series showed viewers just that. Drama was caused by a host of the couples, including an incident which saw one bride sneak off to spend the night with another castmate who was not her husband.

The new series of the reality show will begin on Monday, September 18. Channel 4 previously announced that this series will be a whopping 36 episodes, providing plenty of entertainment to reality TV fans tuning in.

But out of the 34 couples who have previously matched on past series of the show, only three are still together. This includes just one couple from the 2022 edition of the show. Scroll down to see where each of the couples are now.

Jess Potter and Pjay Finch

The couple's relationship was off to a less than optimal start when Jess revealed she was not attracted to Pjay. The pair instead became friends, and Pjay has since returned to his job with Dreamboys.

Lara Eyre and Richie Dews

Despite Richie admitting that he thought Lara Eyre "was the one," the couple called it quits. This was reportedly over a lack of communication with Richie later saying he was "heartbroken" over the decision.

Duka Cav and Whitney Hughes

This pair caused drama from the start as the duo bickered and Whitney accused Duka of being "fake." The bride then spent the night with fellow castmate Matt Murray who was not her husband.

It is safe to say that the couple split soon after.

April Banbury and George Roberts

April and George went their separate ways after the show was wrapped. Three of George's ex-girlfriends accused him of being an 'emotional abuser' and he was arrested last year on suspicion of controlling and coercive behaviour.

Gemma Rose and Matt Murray

Unsurprisingly, when Matt got with Whitney Hughes it broke up both her marriage with Duka and his with Gemma.

The latter has since shared her thoughts on the show in a number of podcast appearances. Matt and Whitney briefly dated, but they too have since called it quits.

Kasia London and Kwame Badu

Kwame refused to let Kasia into his house during the homestay portion of the show. This did not go down well and she eventually dubbed her hubby a "pawn" and herself a "queen."

She later called her wedding a "practise run" after the pair split.

Jenna Robinson and Zoe Clifton

Married at First Sight UK's first lesbian couple are still together and very much in love. They enjoy sharing sweet snaps together on Instagram. They are the only couple from the 2022 series to still be in a relationship.
