Married at First Sight's Duka Cavolli teases new romance ahead of reunion show

Married At First Sight UK star Duka Cavolli has hinted that he has been luckier in love since leaving the E4 reality television show following his failed 'marriage' to fellow co-star Whitney Hughes, which ended dramatically. The series has been explosive with viewers watching a whole host of drama — like marriages falling apart and grooms and brides cheating on their partners — unfold in 2022.

The show sees strangers matched by three love experts in an initial 'marriage' ceremony and as the weeks go on, the couples must decide whether they want to stay together or go their separate ways. The 31-year-old from Birmingham, who left the experiment after Whitney recoupled with another, Matt Murray, after they began a secret relationship, took to his Instagram stories on Sunday, October 16, encouraging his followers to ask him a series of questions via a question box on the app.

Before posting any queries, he started off by mentioning that the MAFS reunion show will be coming this week (airing on Monday, October 17 and Tuesday, October 18) - the series finale. He said: "Reunion week next week and everyone goes back in [the house], so um, yeah that should be interesting. That should definitely be interesting."

Addressing a question from the member of the public which said 'Are you single?', Duka replied openly and said: "To the person that is asking that question, you know the answer already. No, I'm not single. More will be revealed soon."

Later on, the recruitment co-ordinator was asked if he felt nervous for the reunion, to which he responded: "Me nervous? Haven't you seen already what I had to deal with and what I had to put up with?" He laughed and continued: "Nervous? Not at all. Just excited to just see the friends that I made, genuine friends from that."

Duka began the show being matched with Whitney Hughes, a legal PA from St Albans, in a relationship that seemed doomed from the beginning after she ruined their vows, refused to kiss him, and forgot his name at the altar. During the experiment, viewers also saw the initial husband and wife arguing and fail to develop a deep, emotional connection. Finding it with Matt Murray, with whom she 'cheated' on Duka, she continued on with the experiment after Duka exited the show and later explained that she had no regrets.

The series, which started in August 2022, will finish with two reunion episodes and will see the brides and grooms meet up with each other for the final time. The 2022 reunion will air in two episodes on Monday, October 17, and Tuesday, October 18 on E4. The first reunion episode will air at the earlier time of 8pm on E4 on Monday, October 17, and will resume to its normal 9pm slot on Tuesday, October 18 on E4.
