The MAFS UK reunion unveils Nathan and Lacey’s split, Charlie’s exclusion, and romance rumors surrounding Amy and Adam. Discover the drama and new beginnings.
The Married At First Sight UK reunion episodes are always filled with drama, revelations, and updates on the lives of the participants after the experiment concludes. The 2024 and 2025 reunions were no exceptions, bringing to light several unexpected twists and turns in the relationships formed during the series.
Nathan and Lacey’s Split
One of the most talked-about revelations from the reunion was the split between Nathan Campbell and Lacey Martin. Despite appearing to be a strong couple during the experiment, their relationship ended shortly after filming wrapped. Nathan revealed that Lacey had suggested they continue their romance as a ‘showmance’ for fame and ‘magazine deals’. According to Nathan, Lacey sent him a text message saying the relationship she wanted would be a pretend one so she could get more opportunity from it and make more money, something he was not interested in pursuing.
Lacey, however, had a different perspective. She claimed that Nathan was the one who ended the relationship and blocked her, leaving her feeling hurt and as though he had given up. She explained that after the experiment, Nathan changed, and she felt he was no longer invested in the relationship.
Charlie Curtis’s Exclusion
Not everyone was invited to the reunion. Charlie Curtis revealed she was ‘really upset and disheartened’ after being excluded from the reunion episode. Charlie was married to Eve Reid on the show, but they are no longer together. She explained that she was told her story was over and that she was considered ‘boring’ by the producers.
Emma Barnes’s Absence
Another notable absence from the reunion was Emma Barnes. Emma, who was part of season nine, revealed she was ‘uninvited’ from the special episode. She expressed her disappointment, stating that she could have brought some laughs to the table. Emma was married to Caspar Todd during the series, but they also split after the experiment.
Amy and Adam Romance Rumors
The 2025 reunion also addressed the romance rumors surrounding Amy Kenyon and Adam Nightingale. Although they were not paired together on the show, their close friendship sparked speculation that they could become a couple. During the partner swap task, Adam treated Amy exceptionally well, leading viewers to believe they were more suited for each other than their respective partners, Luke Debono and Polly Sellmen.
At the reunion, Amy and Adam discussed the public’s fascination with their relationship. Amy explained that people likely wanted them to be a couple because they bring out the best in each other, have an amazing friendship, and support each other.
Caspar’s New Relationship
While Caspar Todd wasn’t present at the reunion, his ex-wife Emma Barnes shared an update on his love life. Caspar has found love after the show, and his girlfriend has moved in with him. Emma expressed her happiness for him, noting that he had gone on the show hoping to find the love of his life.
Kristina’s Dating Life
Kristina Goodsell, another season nine participant, attended the reunion and shared that she has been dating again after her marriage to Kieran Chapman ended. She stated that she is embracing her single life but remains open to finding love.
Lacey and Melvin Odoom
Lacey Martin clarified rumors about her dating life, specifically addressing speculation that she was dating Melvin Odoom. She explained that they have been friends for years and were simply attending an event together.
Overall
The MAFS UK reunions provide a platform for the participants to reflect on their experiences, address rumors, and share updates on their lives after the show. The 2024 and 2025 reunions delivered plenty of drama, heartbreak, and new beginnings, keeping viewers engaged and invested in the lives of the former contestants.
