These pairs all have their own stories; for some the path to true love has been smooth, but for others it's been rocky. There have been break-ups, reunions, marriages and babies among them all. Have a click through our gallery to see who got the ultimate reality show prize - love.

1. Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling
Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling met on Channel 4’s Married at First Sight UK in 2021. The show sees couples matched by experts, who then meet for the first time on their wedding day. The weddings in the show aren’t legal unions, but Adam proposed to Tayah for real at the end of the process and they married in December 2023. They have also welcomed the first baby to be born as a result of the show. Tayah gave birth to Beau Emily Aveling at Doncaster hospital, alongside then fiancé Adam, in October 2022.

2. Duncan James and Evelyn Ellis
Duncan James, aged 38, and Evelyn Ellis, age 28, both appeared on season 10 of Married at First Sight: Australia, but they weren't matched.

3. Millie Court and Liam Reardon
Millie Court and Liam Reardon, who were Love Island winners in 2021, haven't had the easiest road to love. They left the island together, but split around a year later. They confirmed their reunion, however, in July 2023.
4. Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson
Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson have been together ever since meeting at the altar during Married at First Sight UK season 2 in 2022.

They revealed in October 2023 that they have taken off their wedding rings from the show, as they are not actually married, and wish to date like a regular couple. However, they did also say they'd like to marry one day on their MAFS wedding date.
