There were high hopes for Thomas Hartley and Adrian Sanderson after they navigated a rocky time on Married At First Sight UK. They became one of the of the matchmaking show's most popular couples after forming a close relationship following a row-filled honeymoon in Mexico.
The pair are now on the hunt for love again after deciding amicably that they should split during an emotional dinner party before making it to the final vows. In tearful scenes Thomas called Adrian, who lives in Manchester, his "rock" and vowed that he would still be in his life as a friend after the E4 show which sees singles marry strangers after being matched by experts.
"You mean the world to me. But just because we love each other doesn’t mean we’re supposed to be together," Thomas said, as Adrian burst into tears. During this week's reunion episodes, the pair were still clearly close as they arrived at the final dinner party together dressed in matching pink outfits.
