MAFS UK 2025 is filling our evenings and all of our brain space.

So far, one bride has told her husband she doesn't fancy him – and never will. One bride broke a rib. The brides confronted one groom about his problematic behaviour. One couple was even (gently) asked to call it quits by the experts. In other words, it's been pure and total drama. And understandably, we can't help but wonder who has gone the distance and who is still together from MAFS UK 2025?

But first, a quick reminder about how this whole thing works: a bunch of singles are interviewed by relationship experts who then match them with other singles. Each couple meets in the most dramatic way possible: at the altar in full wedding attire. They giggle, introduce themselves, then say their “I dos" before embarking on a “honeymoon” and a reality TV version of their lives together.

Throughout it all, the couples take part in dinner parties with the other duos, followed by pseudo couples therapy, where the experts chat with them in front of the other couples. At the end of each couch session, each couple decides whether they want to stay or leave the experiment. If one person writes stay, the couple is encouraged to give it one more week before calling it quits.

With not long left to go, many couples have already started pulling out. The other couples are under very strict rules and have to keep their relationship status a secret while the show is airing. So, with that in mind, here is everything we know about which MAFS UK couples are still together.

Keye and Davide

Still together

Keye and Davide have been the perfect picture of MAFS success. At least so far. The marketing manager and cabin crew member felt instant sparks at their wedding. They had a little bump in the road during their honeymoon when Davide feared that Keye was keeping things too light (and too sexual) but since then, their relationship has deepened and they seem to be stronger than ever.

Divarni and Julia-Ruth

Not together

Divarni and Julia-Ruth haven't had the easiest time on the show, but, as far as we know, they are still together. Things started on a high for the musician and the dancer. After all, they seemed to have a lot in common. However, as soon as they got to their honeymoon, Julia-Ruth began to have doubts. She worried that Divarni was a little too serious for her – and at each of the dinner parties, they both seemed to be on completely different pages. Things went from bad to worse when fellow groom Bailey told Divarni that Julia-Ruth had told him that she didn't fancy her husband. “She said to the girls that she doesn’t think you’re her type. She said she doesn’t think you’ll ever be her type," Bailey said. Yikes. The couple finally called it quits during the fifth commitment ceremony.

Dean and Sarah

Not together

Sadly, things didn't work out for Dean and Sarah. But we can't say we're too surprised. From their very first moments on the show, the pair seemed to be a pretty bad match. Dean performed a rap and Sarah got the ick and the rest is history. Unfortunately, Dean didn't exactly realise how bad things were at first. Sarah kept pushing herself to keep trying with Dean, but it was clear that she was just not that into it. Eventually, the experts had to call it: after Sarah and Dean both wrote ‘stay’ during a couch session, the experts advised that they call it quits.

Paul and Anita

Not together

Paul and Anita were the first couple this season to leave the experiment early. The pair chose to leave after just two couch sessions. Anita didn't initially feel a spark at their wedding: “First impressions of Paul… he’s not the silver fox I had in mind. He’s not the type I’d gravitate to,” she said. Paul found Anita attractive, but things got worse during their honeymoon when Anita didn't enjoy Paul's big personality. It's no huge surprise that the pair decided to call it quits early.

Grace and Ashley

Not together

Grace and Ashley have had a bumpy journey so far on MAFS. Ashley felt a spark at the wedding, but Grace was a little more hesitant. In fact, she was so overwhelmed she dashed off before even taking the wedding photos. With the help of the producers, Grace returned to see out the wedding ceremony. But things haven't been smooth sailing. It's been slow going, but the pair do seem to be slowly warming to each other. Things took another turn, however, when Grace later revealed she felt pressured to be intimate with Ashley. One eagle-eyed viewer told The Sun that “they were following each other as recently as last week and now they aren't, so it seems to have happened in the last few days,” which led some to believe that the pair have broken up. And, unfortunately, the fans were right – the pair agreed to split ahead of the final commitment ceremony.

Nelly and Steven

Not together

Things have been nothing short of explosive between Nelly and Steven. The pair had a good wedding, with both claiming to be into each other. However, things took a turn when Nelly broke her rib and Steven spent an evening at the pub, where he allegedly bragged about sleeping with someone else just a few weeks before starting the show. This led to a very heated moment at a dinner party. The couple had another big argument that saw Steven swearing at Nelly in their bedroom. During in-laws week, Nelly's sister told her “You can't accept that.” Somehow, things got even worse. Things really kicked off when it was revealed that Steven's Hinge profile was active, leading Nelly to remove her wedding ring and declare the marriage over.

Leigh and Leah

Not together

Leigh and Leah got off to a bumpy start when Leigh didn't want to do a kissing picture on their wedding day and Leah began to worry that her wife didn't fancy her. The couple seemed to have a tumultuous honeymoon, too – but Leah later shared a statement on Instagram that gave fans hope: “I REFUSE to let the way l'm being portrayed hinder the happiness this experience gave to me. Please remember, what you see on TV is HEAVILY edited, even a laugh after a comment can be cut out,” she wrote alongside happy pictures of the couple. "All is not as you see it. You cannot know somebody's character from the amount of time you've seen of Married at First Sight thus far."

Alas, as of this week's episode, the couple's tumultuous marriage came to an end. Standing in a wisteria garden and asked if they would pledge to stay together forever, Leigh said that "a true loving relationship shouldn't take this much effort and force", choosing to end their marriage.

Maeve and Joe

Not together

Maeve and Joe got off to a rocky start thanks to their big personalities, but they soon found common ground. In fact, before long the pair had told each other they were in love and were on the road to happily ever after. Everything changed last week when the pair had a big argument. Joe opened up about the argument during a day out with some of the other participants in the show. “I haven't been my full self this week. I've got a lot of stuff going on at home and my grandad just died, which doesn't help at all,” he said. “Me and Maeve had this argument last night and I've just got huge doubts in my head. I just said can you just look after yourself a bit more this week, go get your nails done, have a sun bed and just do whatever you need to do to feel good. Then she just stormed off and got really angry and that just wound me up because I didn't understand the reaction.”

In an unexpected twist, the pair soon made up and even got intimate. “Maeve opened up and I do feel we're understanding each other more and more,” Joe said later. "I'm feeling great after last night. We had a really great time after getting to the villa and we did get to know each other on a deeper level. One thing led to another and that's it, that's all I'm saying."

The roller coaster continued when, following the death of his grandad, Joe opted to leave the experiment. As far as we know, this couple never got back together.

Bailey and Rebecca

Still together

Rebecca entered the show looking for an “alpha male." Although she didn't initially think that Bailey was her type, the couple appeared to progress fast. After just two weeks, Bailey told Rebecca he loved her. Things hit another bump when Rebecca revealed to Bailey that she has a secret crush on Joe, one of the other grooms in the show. Rebecca apologised to Bailey, saying, “I am sorry for doing it, because we’ve always had this protective bubble around us of, like, having each other’s backs. I feel like I have, like, popped it, like, ruined what we’ve got.” Bailey replied, “I don’t think it’s popped. I do trust you. I haven’t changed how I feel, how I act. I don’t want to make it a big deal.” And with that, the pair agreed to move past Rebecca's confession.

In a recent twist, fans think that Bailey and Rebecca may have split. Some viewers have noticed that Rebecca seems to be spending a lot of time in Liverpool — which, as fans probably know, was a point of tension for the couple during the recent homestays, with Rebecca explaining that she was worried about leaving home and about embarking on a long-distance relationship.

Abigail and John

Still together

For once, it seems, Abigail and John were an example of a happy couple at the altar. Things got off to a flying start, with Abigail finding John “handsome” and John telling her she looked “amazing.” Abi became worried that her mum might not approve of John, but she soon gave her seal of approval at the wedding. Abi opened up to John during their honeymoon, confessing that she had previously been in a relationship with a man who was secretly married. So far, things seem to be going well for these two.

Leisha and Reiss

Still together… we think

Leisha and Reiss both felt an intial spark upon seeing each other at the altar, but throughout their wedding day, they began to have their doubts. She was worried he didn't fancy her, he feared her personality may be too “over the top” for him. They got closer on their honeymoon, but that too ended with a bump – Reiss later told the other grooms that she got drunk on the flight home and was sick. Nevertheless, the pair stuck it out. Leisha revealed to that she wanted Reiss to spice things up. “I hate that you're not as spontaneous as me. You have a very strict bedtime Reiss,” she said, adding, “We don't need to just like wait until the bedroom to like... like anytime, any place. Spice it up a bit.” We'll have to wait and see what happens next. We've been left on a cliffhanger as to whether the couple are still together, though – as while Leisha has confirmed she's in love with her husband, Reiss seems less sure.

April and Leo

Not together

April and Leo got off to a good start with April happily accepting Leo and his nickname of the “Hot Dog.” "I don't think it really could have gone better," Leo said after they met. “I definitely felt a spark with you.” After their “dream” wedding, the couple got closer on their honeymoon and began opening up to each other. Unfortunately, these two fell at one of the final hurdles and opted to leave the experiment at the final commitment ceremony.
