Viewers and even the experts on Married At First Sight Australia were left dumbfounded at the end of Monday's episode (April 24) when one couple decided to stay together in the final commitment ceremony, despite their tumultuous and 'toxic' relationship - forcing psychologist Mel Schilling to openly ask them what we all want to know: "Why are you still here?".
Harrison and Bronte haven't had the easiest ride in this social experiment - which sees strangers matched by a series of data and meet, for the first time, at the alter and marry. On several occasions the bride and groom have been seen respectively storming out of their shared flat on numerous occasions after harsh disagreements while viewers have witnessed Harrison's 'toxic' behaviour with claims coming from their fellow participants and newlyweds that the construction worker is 'gaslighting' Bronte and using emotinal manipulation - read more on that here.
And last night, in the final commitment ceremony before the newlyweds head off into the outside world, showing their partner their life outside the experiment during 'home stays' week, Bronte and Harrison shocked everybody by choosing to stay in the experiment for one more week, causing outrage not just amongst the contestants and experts but viewers at home.
