Mafs couples that have stood the test of time
Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.
The pair couldn't keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam's Doncaster home.
Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau.
Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December.
Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: 'I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out - and excited for everything to come.'
Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019.
Owen recalled: 'I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work.
"While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in.
'The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, 'Wouldn't it be funny if I signed up?'
'A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.'
Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson.
Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna's vegan lifestyle, the show's first same sex pairing are still going strong.
They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod.
Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: "We're not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship."
This comes just months before the 2025 series is due to hit screens.
Though no official start date for the 2025 season has been revealed, MAFS UK will likely hit our streets in the coming months.
It is estimated that the hit series will make a comeback in the middle of September.
This is not official, but instead judging by how the 2024 series began on September 16, 2024.

Set to air over 12 episodes, the brand new competition series sees the contestants sent to a grand countryside manner. Left behind and for them to inherit is a vast fortune by the deceased who previously lived at the mansion. Liz, 60, portrays the fictitious deceased benefactor - with Rob Rinder appearing as the executor of her will. Appearing in the form of video messages for the players from beyond the grave, they must compete in a series of challenges to unlock money from the will. It comes from the same team behind smash-hit The Traitors and Squid Game: The Challenge. Speaking about the new series, Steve Handley, C4's Head of Reality & Entertainment, said previously: 'The Inheritance isn't just a battle of strategy, alliances, and inevitable betrayals - it's a cocktail of drama, jeopardy, and outright mischief that Reality fans love. "I can't wait to see how our players handle the challenges, the twists, and a few sneaky surprises.' Earlier this year, Liz and Billy Ray went public with a loved-up picture in a field. Wearing festive bunny ears, Billy went in for a kiss on Liz's smiling mouth. Liz Hurley, 59, looks stunning as she strips off to barely-there bikini The pair first met in 2022 playing the romantic leads in the movie Christmas In Paradise. We revealed they reconnected last year when Billy turned to Liz for help as his third marriage crumbled. An insider said: "Everyone is saying Billy and Liz are world's apart, but actually they are very similar. 'They have a lot in common and have the same interests. 'Billy is also very much her type - he has a real twinkle in his eye and a naughty streak that she can't resist." The new romance came 12 years after she and ex-fiance Shane split in 2013. 'He really reminds her of Shane Warne, they have a very similar energy about them," they continued. 'Liz has a really good time with Billy they share a lot of laughs and he is a real flirt, which she loves. 'Shane was the love of her life and it has taken her years to be able to move on but she finally feels like she is able to. 'Billy isn't perfect and neither was Shane but Liz truly believes they have a strong future together. 'She is nearly 60 and deep down does want to share her life with someone and settle down. 'Everyone is saying he could be the one, so don't be surprised if she marries again.'

Hollyoaks star speaks out over sudden exit and says it's a 'massive shame'
Hollyoaks viewers were in for a surprise today as the latest episode confirmed that Robbie Roscoe had been killed by Jez Blake weeks ago despite appearing to be alive since then A Hollyoaks star has opened up about their unexpected departure from the soap opera. Viewers have been left stunned this week after it was revealed that a character had been killed off without fans realising until now. Charlie Wernham, 30, made his first appearance as Robbie Roscoe on the Channel 4 show in 2013, before leaving in 2016. He returned last year and his character has now been killed off more than a decade since his debut on the soap. Earlier this year, Robbie had taken prisoner by Jez Blake (played by Jeremy Sheffield), who decided to set him free from a shed in tonight's episode. Robbie then walked through the village but couldn't be seen by others, with it then revealed that he had been a figment of Jez's imagination after he had murdered him weeks ago. Viewers have shared their surprise over the storyline and now Charlie has spoken about his departure. He told the Sun: "It's a massive shame to say goodbye to the character and not going to be able to play him anymore but to be fair, I didn't think I'd ever get a chance to play him again." The actor said that he's "very happy" that the opportunity to return presented itself. He added that he's "quite satisfied" following the "quite interesting ending," though admitted that it is "always sad" to finish a job like working on Hollyoaks. Charlie hinted that his character could return in the future, though he told the outlet that Robbie is "gone" for now. He said that his exit storyline feels "special" but said it's a "shame" to miss the show's 30th anniversary in October. Looking back on finding out about the storyline, he told Digital Spy: "Everyone was cautious, because I don't remember this ever being done before. I was excited, though, because it's something that I'd never done – and Robbie's done everything there is to do! If you're going to die on the show, it's quite an interesting way of doing it – and I'm all for doing different things." Although it feels like "the final chapter" for his character, Charlie told the outlet that other characters have "died and come back". He teased that "anything can happen," though suggested he wouldn't consider returning any time soon. Viewers discovered that Robbie had been killed by Jez in today's episode. He'd been imprisoned by the serial killer after previously being held captive by Grace Black (Tamara Wall). Jez was thought to have been hiding him in a shed. The latest episode showed Jez telling Robbie that they both deserved to get a "happy ending" with their respective partners, so he had decided to let him go. Freed, Robbie then ran to his fiancée Vicky Grant (Anya Lawrence). However, Vicky didn't respond to Robbie, who tried speaking to her, and instead walked through him. It was then revealed in a flashback that Jez had killed him weeks ago but had continued to see 'Robbie' as a vision since then. Hollyoaks airs Monday to Wednesday on E4 at 7pm and first look episodes can be streamed from 7am.

Celebrity SAS stars who quit show 'will still receive full fee as Hannah Spearritt bags five figures despite pulling out in minutes'
Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins will reportedly receive their full appearance fee even if they drop out early. The likes of S Club singer Hannah Spearitt and former Love Island star Tasha Ghouri have pulled out of the gruelling Channel 4 show. But according to The Sun, even stars who decide to pack it in themselves still get the full fee they were promised upon signing up. Hannah, who only lasted a minute before bowing out, will still reportedly earn an impressive £10K for her brief appearance. A source said: 'Hannah Spearitt, Chloe Burrows and Tasha Ghouri will all have been paid over £10k - some as much as £20k - but unlike other reality shows, they do get paid if they pull out. The likes former Love Island stars Tasha Ghouri and Chloe Burrows have pulled out of the gruelling Channel 4 show 'So even though Hannah only lasted one minute, she'll still get paid over £10k for that minute. 'It's well worth stars signing up even if they don't think they can complete the show just for the payday - it might be embarrassing taking their armband off early in the show, but it's good money!' MailOnline has contacted Channel 4 and reps for Hannah Spearritt, Chloe Burrows and Tasha Ghouri for comment. The first episode saw both Hannah Spearitt and Louie Spence decide the course wasn't for them. However, the star-studded dropouts continued in the second instalment as the remaining celebs were faced with climbing up a steep hill. Once at the top, they then had to hang from a wire over a ravine. Love Island star Chloe Burrows struggled on the climb, and berated by the Special Forces as she moaned at the trek. One DS shouted: 'Can't do what? We've walked 300 metres up a f***ing hill!' As he continued to goad her - telling the reality star she was 'wasting a massive opportunity' - it all became too much and she quit. Breaking down in tears, Chloe simply said 'I'm done, I'm done' before handing over her arm band after being goaded by the trainers Breaking down in tears, she simply said 'I'm done, I'm done' before handing over her arm band. As she prepared to leave the course, she added: 'F*** off, this is the worst thing I have ever done in my whole life!' The intense scenes continued, as Chloe was soon followed by another fellow Love Island star. Tasha Ghouri started lagging behind the group as the trainers' attention turned to her, telling her to 'dig deep'. Visibly struggling, Tasha handed up her armband and declared she was quitting the show. She said: 'I'm not mentally here. I'm not mentally here to do this.' Tasha and Chloe were reunited as they made their way down the hill, while the rest of the celebrities continued. It leaves just 10 stars left on the show, with the next episode set to air this Sunday at 9pm on Channel 4. Last year, John Barrowman quit SAS after just 32 minutes into filming. He dubbed the 'worst recruit' in the show's history after he told Directing Staff 'I'm done' adding: 'I just... it's not for me, I know who I am and what I'm about, it's not for me' following his arrival on set. Despite his abrupt exit, Daily Mail revealed how John received a whopping £30,000 appearance fee by bosses.
