00:01Lordus!
00:03Previously...
00:04This is adorable!
00:05...the experiment's first honeymoons got underway.
00:08It's really hard for me to open up.
00:10While heart felt honesty...
00:12I deflect to get me through a difficult period
00:15where we lost my brother.
00:17...led to a breakthrough for Daveed and Kia.
00:19This is what I want to see.
00:21We have a beautiful heart.
00:22I'm liking more now.
00:23Candid comments from Sarah...
00:25Have you ever been with anyone big or anything like that?
00:27No.
00:28...knocked her marriage off course.
00:30I have to be honest, there isn't a spark.
00:35And while for one new couple there was instant chemistry...
00:39Absolutely stunning.
00:40I do fancy him.
00:43...an initial lack of attraction...
00:45I wouldn't say he's my type.
00:48...sent Bride Grace spiralling.
00:51I don't want to do it, sorry.
00:54Tonight...
00:55Right now, he's not putting a foot wrong.
00:57Nelly and Stephen go from strength to strength.
00:59Exactly what I wanted from my honeymoon.
01:01...while Ashley's comments continue to trouble Grace.
01:04I said I want a tomboy Barbie.
01:06It's like, what?
01:07Oh, ****.
01:08Every now and then he just says something and I think like,
01:10do you know how that sounds?
01:12Sarah's forthright take on how to ignite a spark with Dean...
01:16Get some tattoos and lose some weight.
01:18...combined with demands for honesty...
01:20Would it be any different if I wasn't as big?
01:22Erm...
01:23...further test the couple's marriage.
01:25Probably.
01:28...and as two more brave singles...
01:31I'm scared, but I'm definitely ready.
01:33...enter the experiment...
01:36Hi!
01:37...one of the brides has serious second thoughts.
01:40Should we do a take?
01:41I don't know if she can't see me or not.
01:44****
01:45I made a mistake.
01:46Shit.
01:54Are you feeling today then after it's all settled down?
01:56Still feels a bit surreal.
01:58I can't believe yesterday happened.
01:59Yeah, it was all a bit of a whirlwind.
02:01It feels really strange, the whole situation.
02:05Like, I'm married.
02:06I don't feel like I really know Grace at all yet.
02:08It's been, what, 10, 12 hours.
02:11I didn't know whether I was coming or going at the wedding.
02:14I am still feeling a little bit overwhelmed.
02:16Ashley and I aren't aligning on certain values
02:19in terms of he's perhaps more traditional, I'm more liberal.
02:24I was raised like men of the breadwinners.
02:27At their wedding day, Ashley's old-school values
02:31rang alarm bells for Grace.
02:33God, here we go.
02:35It's 20, 25, Ashley.
02:37Would you describe yourself as a feminist?
02:40100% no.
02:42Causing Grace to drastically question her new marriage.
02:46It's very hard.
02:47This is a hard thing to do.
02:49You've had a really emotional day.
02:52Oh, girl.
02:57It was good to have a sleep and process all of yesterday.
03:00I did spiral, but it's day one.
03:03I'm feeling way more positive,
03:04and I'm really keen to just start with that friendship.
03:07Good place to start.
03:09We have nothing but time now
03:10to carry on getting to know each other on honeymoon.
03:14Yeah, they say a holiday,
03:15they make sure it breaks you as well, don't they?
03:16All right, let's go. Let's find out.
03:19I'm massively looking forward to the honeymoon.
03:21I'm looking forward to sort of digging deeper
03:23and getting to know Grace.
03:24We've got an envelope.
03:26I'm hoping that she starts to kind of soften to me
03:28and that she does like me.
03:30Do you want to do the honours?
03:31No, you go for it.
03:32Go for it.
03:33Grace and Ashley, congratulations.
03:35Now it's time for you to go on your honeymoon
03:37in Koh Samui.
03:39Oh, awesome.
03:40That's so good.
03:42I'm chuffed about that, I'll be honest.
03:43Yeah, me too.
03:45Thailand.
03:46Woo!
03:47I'm well up for that.
03:49I can't wait.
03:50Cheers.
03:51Can you cheers tea, coffee?
03:52Let's do it.
03:53I'm actually over the moon.
03:54Didn't feel I had to sleep like a pencil last night.
03:59You're very respectful, both in our own lanes as such.
04:03So yeah, thank you.
04:04I've got respect for you being like that anyway.
04:07Yes.
04:08If anything, it makes me like you a little bit more.
04:11OK.
04:12It's like you're not that person, so...
04:13What if I was that person?
04:14Um, well...
04:15Would that be an issue, do you think?
04:16Old school morals and people that respect themselves.
04:17That is something that I asked for.
04:18Yeah.
04:19It is quite important to me.
04:20Yeah, OK.
04:21Big note for me, double standards.
04:22You can probably respect yourself and if you want to be the kind of person that engages
04:28in those activities, that's probably OK too.
04:30Yeah, but you're not that person.
04:31You've made that quite clear, so...
04:32OK.
04:33Yeah.
04:34Yeah.
04:35I feel like everything I'm doing is wrong.
04:36It's taken me back a bit.
04:37I don't know why it went to that when I was given a compliment.
04:39So, it's bad.
04:40You can probably respect yourself and if you want to be the kind of person that engages
04:47in those activities, that's probably OK too.
04:50Yeah, but you're not that person.
04:51You've made that quite clear, so...
04:53OK.
04:54Yeah.
04:55I feel like everything I'm doing is wrong.
04:58It's taken me back a bit.
05:01I don't know why it went to that when I was given a compliment.
05:05compliment. Cool.
05:13I'm just a little bit concerned that Ashley might be like set in his ways and his opinions of women
05:19and I kind of maybe naively hoped that that would be a bit more aligned. It's really important to me.
05:30I'm just like really like, I just feel like I shouldn't be going.
05:35It's like, I'm like, am I stupid to go?
05:41It's going by. I'm like, you literally met yesterday.
05:44I wish I could snap out of it. I'm just feeling really overwhelmed and really anxious.
05:48This is a lot harder than I anticipated.
05:51Look at this. Oh my God. I've stayed in somewhere so nice. It's gorgeous.
06:13You can't say no to a chocolate cup of straw. I mean, I'll feed you one in a minute then.
06:17Okay. Being on honeymoon with Stephen, I just feel really happy. It kind of feels like we've known each other for ages.
06:22Like we don't really feel like strangers.
06:24Oh, stunning.
06:26Honeymoon's sweet.
06:28Do we actually need to leave the room?
06:29I think not.
06:30Since the wedding, the feeling there is just growing. It's definitely exceeding my expectations the whole journey so far. So, yeah. At this moment in time, I think Nelly and I are a perfect match.
06:43It's insane how well-suited we are. Honestly, I'm having the best time. It's exactly what I wanted from my honeymoon. It's amazing.
06:54My guard feels up a little bit today. I am starting to feel a little bit rejected. I think last night was the first time I've had it. It's probably not going as well as I thought it was going.
07:20What was your first reaction when, like, obviously I turned around and you was walking down?
07:23You weren't, sort of, looks-wise what I was expecting.
07:28Have you ever been with anyone big or anything? I push your usual type.
07:30Have I been with anyone who's, like, bigger or anything like that? Yeah.
07:33No, I have to admit that.
07:35No.
07:39Last night was the first time I've probably felt anxious within this whole experience. So, it's just a weird place to be in. Kind of left me feeling empty. I didn't like it.
07:48I woke up this morning, I'm feeling better and, like, kind of ready to just have fun again.
07:52Have you been cuddling any pillows?
07:53No, I've not been cuddling any pillows. I've kind of stopped that now. I'm waiting for the real thing.
08:02Dean is looking for more affection from myself. But, for me, I'm just not there yet.
08:08No. Dean has not made any move, which is fine by me.
08:12He can't hear me, can he? Okay.
08:17I normally share my bed with my dog every night.
08:19Oh, fair, yeah. I'm used to shaking.
08:20I'm like a dog. That's nice.
08:22Is it because I'm rough?
08:24It's rough. It's rough.
08:26It's because a dog barks.
08:27Did you just bark?
08:32Dean barking in bed this morning makes me feel a bit uncomfortable.
08:37He's obviously stopped the rapping and the random outbursts of song is now being replaced with animal sounds.
08:44Yeah, don't do that.
08:46So, that's newlyweds.
08:55Whilst this year's first three couples get to know each other on their honeymoons,
08:59In the UK, another brave single is about to enter the experiment.
09:06I've just looked at the camera. Fuck!
09:08Ugh!
09:09Wait, start again, start again, start again, start again.
09:13Okay, ready?
09:14Okay, is it recorded now?
09:17At work, I'm like a powerhouse.
09:20Gotta get shit done.
09:22Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
09:24How are you all right?
09:25Good, how are you?
09:26Yeah, good, thanks.
09:27I'm a consultant in the construction industry.
09:29Let's jump on a team's call, and then get you booked in for a site server, and go from there.
09:34I'm a masculine energy, then I've got like a really girly side as well.
09:39Definitely say I'm spiritual.
09:41I love meditation.
09:43One year, I was in Thailand, and I lived with the monks.
09:47You're not allowed to speak.
09:48That was hard for me.
09:51Already, I can see you are ironic.
09:55I think you meant iconic.
09:57No.
09:57I'm joking, I'm joking.
09:59I'm joking, I'm joking.
10:00I'm joking.
10:00I'm joking.
10:00I'm joking, I'm joking.
10:00I'm joking, I'm joking.
10:01I'm joking.
10:01They're gonna have to be strong-minded, because you're quite strong and know what you want.
10:07You're making me sound like an absolute control freak.
10:09You know, you've just got your shit together.
10:11That's a better way of putting it.
10:12I dated men until I was 25, and I now also date women as well.
10:20I never was one of these people in the closet or knew I had these feelings.
10:24I literally kissed a girl and liked it.
10:26I was Katy Perry.
10:27I swear to God.
10:29Long story short, I was in a hot tub with her, and I could see the way she was looking
10:33at me, and I thought, oh my God, she fancies me.
10:35She tried to kiss me, and we just started snogging, and we was kissing for ages, and then I thought
10:40the next day, I was like, oh my God, am I a lesbian?
10:42That girl became my first girlfriend and ended up being with her for like a year, and
10:51then my last actual relationship, which was three years ago now, we were thinking of marriage.
10:57Coming away from that was hard.
10:59Definitely thought I'd found the one, yeah.
11:02What was missing for you not to remain in those relationships?
11:06I think I had to learn a lot to compromise as I got older.
11:10Like, I can be a control freak, but I hold my hands up with that.
11:13Typically, when people assert a lot of control in a relationship, they tend to have vulnerability
11:19challenges.
11:20Oh yeah, 100%.
11:21But I'm willing to be completely vulnerable here.
11:25How do I know that?
11:26Because I've just told you.
11:29Okay.
11:32Isn't that weird, the next time I'm going to see you is at the wedding?
11:35What do you actually think about me doing it?
11:36You're absolutely nuts.
11:39Family is so important for me.
11:41How do the veils go?
11:42On your head.
11:44My nan is one of my best friends.
11:47I look like Minnie Mouse.
11:48Get it off.
11:49You look nice.
11:50No, that's not how it goes.
11:52Me and my nan are so similar.
11:53We know what we like, we know what we don't like.
11:55Would you like me to show you my wedding photo?
11:59Have you got one?
11:59Yeah.
12:00Let me see.
12:01My mum and dad and my nan and granda, they've all shaped the way I view marriage.
12:06I'm so lucky to be surrounded by relationships that have just worked.
12:10I don't think I've ever seen you on your wedding day, you know?
12:13Well, you wouldn't have done, you wear both.
12:14My ideal person would be emotionally intelligent, driven.
12:24It's so important for me.
12:25This person is family orientated.
12:28Looks wise, I always go for a girly girl.
12:32Nice eyes, nice teeth.
12:34Someone who takes care of themselves.
12:35That energy where it just draws you in and you just instantly feel a connection.
12:41I have never really been this open to be taken out of my comfort zone and I'm ready to take it on.
12:49Lee, interview, take one.
12:51Oh God, that was so bad.
12:52I do definitely take pride in my appearance.
12:57I think I've been that way since I was young.
12:59I remember being like six years old and my nan teaching me how to put lipstick on.
13:04I definitely am a really like feminine, girly girl.
13:07I always love to get my hair done, get my nails done.
13:10People used to joke about me that I'm always dressed up to even just go to the shop.
13:14I live in Essex, so I mean, majority of the girls do.
13:17When people first meet me, they assume I'm going to be a little bit of an airhead.
13:23I'm not at all.
13:24I'm not just my eyelashes and back down.
13:27I'm a lot deeper than that.
13:28I'd say I am quite a spiritual person.
13:30I like my crystals and the energy that they give off.
13:33I've got ten rose quartz at home.
13:35Trying to flood the love towards me in hopes that it will work.
13:40Currently I work in a GP surgery doing clinical coding.
13:44I love my job, but it's definitely not something I want to do for the rest of my life.
13:48I found what my passion was.
13:50I realised that I really want to help people, so I'm now doing a degree in counselling.
13:56I think you need a little trim on the end.
13:58Not too much though, Mum. I am getting married.
14:01I know.
14:02Being single and living with your mum isn't always the most ideal, let's be honest.
14:07You know, if you want to bring someone home, it'll be awkward.
14:11Single life in Romford.
14:12Awful.
14:15Everyone assumes I'm straight.
14:16It's always, have you got a husband or have you got a boyfriend?
14:19No, I haven't.
14:20I haven't got a girlfriend or a wife.
14:22You definitely want to find love and settle down, don't you?
14:24Yeah.
14:25I feel like I'm 30 now.
14:26Everyone around me settles.
14:28You've found your fiancée, you've got kids.
14:30Unless, be honest, my love life hasn't been great.
14:33I do feel very protective.
14:34I never want you to get hurt again the way you was before.
14:37Yeah.
14:38I have been engaged before.
14:43I thought we were always going to continue and get married and have kids and all of that lovely stuff, but it just didn't work out that way.
14:50It was hard.
14:52The hardest thing I've ever been through.
14:53I saw my life with this person.
14:59That then got taken away.
15:01And it was a really hard pill to swallow.
15:03When you think about this experiment, do you believe there will be any area that you personally struggle in?
15:10I think letting myself be vulnerable.
15:12If somebody was getting a little bit too comfortable with me, I've sort of shut it off.
15:18Are you prepared to emotionally attach?
15:20I think naturally now my guard is up, but I'm willing to go in both feet.
15:25I'm serious about wanting it to work.
15:27You can see it.
15:27I can see that you're very serious about this.
15:32I definitely am wanting to find something.
15:34I'm wanting to find love.
15:36Mum?
15:38What do you think?
15:39I'm like, I'm getting emotional.
15:42Oh, wow.
15:43Thank you, you're going to make me cry.
15:45I really just hope that this wedding would be everything that you dreamed it would be.
15:49You deserve it.
15:50Oh, thanks, Mum.
15:52The perfect wife would be family-orientated, open to spirituality, works hard, has goals set,
16:02quite a masculine-presenting woman, but still feminine to some degree.
16:07I like women for a reason, so I want them to feel like a woman.
16:12I've been engaged.
16:12I just hope that this time I'll make it down the aisle and eat the love of my life.
16:16Now, this is a fascinating match.
16:20There are a lot of shared values with these two, and both have a steeliness to their character.
16:25Lee doesn't pull her punches, but Leah also said she wants someone headstrong who will keep her on her toes.
16:32Leah will be drawn to Leah's femininity, while Leah will appreciate her bride's masculine energy.
16:38If they connect, this can be an amazing partnership.
16:41I agree.
16:43Leah comes across as a tough cookie, exuding strength and confidence.
16:48Her challenge is vulnerability.
16:50Lee is quite a deep thinker, so she won't be afraid to explore Leah's softer, less obvious side.
16:56Both these brides are very driven at work, but they also value spirituality, and family is hugely important to them.
17:05They have close bonds to their nearest and dearest, and both prioritize thoughtfulness and emotional connection in their relationships.
17:14I think they might just meet their match in more ways than one.
17:18Lee and Leah.
17:20I can't believe I'm getting married today. It feels very surreal.
17:40I've been engaged before, so there's been moments where I thought that this was going to come, and it never did.
17:44But we're here. We're actually here.
17:47How do you feel this morning?
17:47I feel like it's going to go well. I've got a good feeling.
17:51I actually think it's because I bought my crystals.
17:53I thought about, in the ceremony, maybe giving her one.
17:57Well, yeah, because it means so much to you. You want to be able to share that with somebody else.
18:01Yeah, definitely.
18:02I think it will be a nice way to solidify our bond. It represents love and healing.
18:07It's either going to go well or it's going to go really badly, because I'll be able to tell from her face if she thinks,
18:11what are you doing?
18:17I actually can't believe today's a big day. It's now starting to hit me a little bit, I think.
18:23Last night, I was lying in bed on my own. I was thinking, what am I actually doing?
18:27And then when all the nice messages started coming through, like, oh, you lot, and my nan sent me a lovely message as well.
18:33And then I just started crying.
18:35Did you cry?
18:35Yeah, I cried. I was crying in bed.
18:37I just want to see that moment when you both see each other and just your first reactions.
18:41I hope she's just got nice teeth, like a nice smile, like a smiley person.
18:45And what about her personality? I hope she's got the same open mind as me, really.
18:48Who would be, like, your dream wife to be?
18:54So, I think mask, but not too mask, and not too femme, but not a stem.
19:04Stem is somebody that's a mix between a femme and a mask, so they'll be in between.
19:09If someone hears me say this, they're going to be like, so what exactly is it that you're looking for?
19:13And it's really hard to explain. Like, it's that masculine energy for me.
19:17And that's got nothing to do with looks.
19:19It's just all about how they carry their self.
19:21If that's not there, I'll struggle with that.
19:25Did you always think you'd be marrying a woman today?
19:28I've always been open to both, haven't I?
19:30But I'm definitely more comfortable with a woman now.
19:32You're more of the masculine energy in the relationship, so maybe that's why you're more suited to a feminine energy.
19:39Sometimes when I date guys, I'm too similar.
19:42Like two alpha males in the room.
19:44You've got a bit of a feisty side.
19:46Would you like her to be like that?
19:49I'd like her to be headstrong.
19:51That might mean that at certain times, if I've got a strong opinion, she's got a strong opinion, we might butt heads.
19:56But then I think that's a good thing.
19:58It's just a team effort.
19:59Just be yourself.
20:01And whatever will be, will be.
20:03I feel like I'm going to get emotional.
20:08Sorry.
20:09God.
20:09Wow, that's come out of nowhere.
20:14Yeah.
20:16I think I've just seen how you are as a person, like with everyone that you care about.
20:21That's the type of relationship that I want, is to be like the person that you are, to my partner.
20:27Sorry.
20:30Yeah.
20:32Lee really does deserve to meet someone nice.
20:35She's been unlucky in love, so I really hope this works for her this time.
20:40You'll make me cry again.
20:42You look beautiful, babe.
20:55Oh, stop.
21:01I can't help you.
21:02I'm sorry.
21:03You know what I'm like?
21:05Leah means a hell of a lot to me.
21:08Yeah, I'm so proud.
21:11In fact, it gave me a tear to see her.
21:14It was beautiful.
21:16If you find somebody that really, really loves her, I'll be made up.
21:22Flowers are nice.
21:45Lovely.
21:48God, I'm crying.
21:49It's only you girls.
21:50This feels like the biggest day of my life.
21:59I'm scared, but I'm definitely ready.
22:03I want someone who's going to challenge me and push me to be my best self.
22:08I'm ready to give everything to that person.
22:17Hello.
22:18Gorgeous.
22:18What am I doing?
22:31What am I?
22:37I definitely feel like the universe has led me here.
22:40I want to be able to trust someone and rely on somebody.
22:46I am treading carefully, but I'm going into this and I'm giving it my all.
22:50I want someone to love me for me.
22:56I want someone to love me for me.
22:56I want to love you.
23:08I'm going to be able to trust somebody.
23:09I'm going to love you.
23:10I want someone to trust somebody.
23:11It looks stunning.
23:20Hi. Hi.
23:22Hi. Hi.
23:24I feel like we're both just as nervous as each other.
23:27I'm actually all right. I'm excited.
23:32She's definitely a bit of me.
23:34She's pretty, nice hair, nice teeth, nice eyes.
23:38So, yeah, tick, tick, tick.
23:39What's your name? I haven't even left you.
23:40Yeah, what's your name? Lee. You Lee? Yeah.
23:43No.
23:45Lee and Leah. Perfect.
23:49You okay? Yeah, you? Good.
23:54She's absolutely stunning.
24:00But I'm not sure if she does have a masculine side.
24:04So, am I going to fancy her?
24:07And in this moment, I don't feel like I do.
24:09Shit.
24:16So intense.
24:18Hello, everyone, and a huge, warm welcome.
24:22Can I ask you to please read your vows to Leo?
24:25As we stand here today as strangers about to embark on probably one of the craziest journeys we've ever been on.
24:32I trust that the universe has led us both here today for a reason, and I truly believe that right here, right now, we're exactly where we're supposed to be.
24:39I hope that whilst growing our bond, we can be a team, one that inspires each other to be our best selves, but know that we have each other's backs on the days when life isn't as kind.
24:49And last but not least, I can't wait to discover the reasons that we've been so divinely placed together.
24:55Before I wrap this up, oh, thank you, I just wanted to give you this rose quartz, and I hope that it will enable us to build a loving and healing connection.
25:08And one that enhances our bond and brings peace on the days when you need it.
25:14Can you hold me stone?
25:16Yes.
25:16Thanks.
25:18Did she just call my crystal a stone?
25:20Maybe she's not as in to spirituality as I am.
25:31I've manifested change, but I never imagined the risk we're about to explore.
25:36Whether it's a connection of love that lasts until the end, or something that takes us out of our comfort zone and spins on our head.
25:43Fucking hell.
25:44I'm apprehensive.
25:46She is not what I normally go for.
25:47And I'm worried I made a mistake.
25:51All I can say is I promise to be vulnerable, honest and true.
25:55And I'm excited for this journey of me and you.
26:01I give you this ring as a symbol of my commitment to this marriage and my faith in this relationship.
26:09I give you this ring of my intention to respect and support you and my faith in this relationship.
26:14And I would now like to invite you to give each other a kiss.
26:26Should we do a take?
26:30We've just met.
26:31And it is a pleasure to present you as wife and wife.
26:39I actually can't believe I'm a stranger.
26:44She's so attractive.
26:45Absolutely gorgeous.
26:46I'm so excited.
26:47But I don't know if she fancies me in it all.
26:55Leah does come across really feminine.
26:58So I want to get to know if she does have a masculine side to find that physical attraction.
27:04But I'm worried that that won't come.
27:10Fuck.
27:11South Africa!
27:20Whilst our newlyweds continue to honeymoon...
27:23Melanie and I are always pulling each other in for a little cuddle or a little heck every time we can.
27:28One could say Stephen is quite good with his hands.
27:35In the Maldives...
27:37Would you like a drink when you think?
27:39Just open that fizz, I think.
27:40Sarah and Dean are all set for an intimate dinner.
27:45I'm literally a pro.
27:46Just don't shake it!
27:48The vibe with Sarah right now is kind of weird.
27:53No, but can you just face it over that way?
27:56Is there anything Dean could do to ever get a sexual spot?
28:03Get some tattoos and lose some weight.
28:06Maybe.
28:07Where do you see our relationship going?
28:09I see it like going back to the UK for a little bit.
28:11I know.
28:13I hope.
28:14However, the longer that the honeymoon has gone on for, and even in the last couple of days,
28:20there's certain traits of his personality that are beginning to grate on me.
28:23Oof.
28:24Don't know.
28:25That wasn't a real bar.
28:26I know, but it was a joke.
28:27I should be completely honest.
28:31Yeah.
28:32Yeah.
28:32I...
28:32Okay, so you're in a bed with me yet, then?
28:42Yeah.
28:43Grace and Ashley are waking up in Thailand.
28:47Before the flight yesterday, I was actually in two minds about whether I should even get
28:51on the flight.
28:51I know Ashley framed it as a compliment that he respected me more for not sleeping with
28:58him on the first night, but it did just feel judgmental of women who might have done that.
29:04Yeah.
29:06A hundred percent, I've learned already in this process that the things I say aren't necessarily
29:12the things I mean.
29:13Grace, she's a really, really nice girl, and I'm looking forward to getting to know her better.
29:17I just...
29:17I've almost felt like everything I was doing was wrong.
29:21I know I always mean well.
29:23I've known in my head what I meant, but then, like, when I've tried to explain it, it's
29:28not almost come out right.
29:30When you were saying, like, oh, I really want a lady, I was like, what?
29:34But then I've contradicted myself because from the very beginning, I said I want a tomboy
29:38Barbie.
29:43Oh, God, I've done it again.
29:44I want to put my foot in it.
29:48Why am I not allowed to like that?
29:50You know, she's like a...
29:51Kind of like a cartoon.
29:52She's not like an actual shape of an actual woman.
29:55Yeah.
29:55I just keep saying some really outlandish things, and they trigger me.
30:02It's just...
30:03It's more of a saying than...
30:05But don't you think we should move away from that saying?
30:09Oh, fuck.
30:12I feel like I'm going to be burned at the stake by the end of this.
30:17I just don't love that you're so specific, that you're so, like, you can't have sex
30:22on the first date.
30:24Gorgeous, but also not too gorgeous.
30:27I don't know where it comes from sometimes.
30:29Every now and then he just says something, and I think, like, do you know how that sounds?
30:33I feel like I can't see.
30:34He's got, like, big old boobies, a little dany ways, like, long blonde hair.
30:38They're my preferences.
30:41I'm allowed just as much as the next guy to have my kind of list and know what I want.
30:47If you don't have it, or you're not that person, then you're not right for me.
30:50I'm not saying you have to be that.
30:53It's just a saying.
30:56It's offensive.
31:09Hand in pocket over there.
31:11Have you seen she's got pockets in her dress?
31:12She's got loads of rocks in there.
31:14Rocks?
31:15Are you spiritual, by the way?
31:16Yeah, I am, but, yeah.
31:17Oh, OK.
31:18What was that stone you gave her?
31:20Quartz quartz.
31:20A rose quartz, yeah.
31:21Oh.
31:22Where did you put it?
31:23You haven't got it in your dress.
31:23No, you took it back off me.
31:25Oh, she's lost it already.
31:26Oh, no, it's upstairs.
31:27That's fucking privacy.
31:27Have you got my rose quartz?
31:30Oh, now she's concerned.
31:33Oh, no.
31:34I can't think where it is.
31:35I've definitely got it somewhere.
31:37I just don't want to lose it.
31:38It should kill me.
31:40Lovely.
31:40Just look towards the camera.
31:42Look down the lens.
31:42Perfect.
31:45How do you, like, normally identify?
31:47Are you, like, mask, femme, stem?
31:50I don't really identify as anything like that.
31:53I don't know.
31:53Do you?
31:54What are you?
31:54Yeah, I would consider myself more femme.
31:56I've got masculine energy, I guess,
31:58but I'm definitely more femme.
32:01Mm.
32:03Just bring your faces really nice and close together.
32:07No, it's a bit much.
32:12I was going to ask you if you wanted to do a kiss as well, but...
32:16Probably not.
32:16I've got the cheek today, so no.
32:18Yeah, sorry.
32:22Don't fancy it, even a little one on the cheek.
32:24No, it's even weirder.
32:25It's the push, you know?
32:28You've asked five times now.
32:30No.
32:31I know.
32:32It's all right.
32:32She's fiery.
32:32I got a little bit of a shock.
32:35Lee has definitely got a fiery side.
32:37I was like, all right, I'll go.
32:41Are we good?
32:54I can't wait till I see how this will marvel.
32:57When you think he's got potential.
32:59They're going to get along 100%.
33:00What is your normal type?
33:05My normal type is normally, like, quite masculine, actually.
33:07Masculine, yeah.
33:08Yeah.
33:09I gauged that before.
33:11Why? What goes that way?
33:12You said something like, what do you go by?
33:14Femme?
33:14Femme, step.
33:15I don't really know about labels.
33:17Yeah.
33:17Like, I would never be like, I'm a bisexual or I'm strict.
33:20Do you know what I mean?
33:20I'm just like, for me, it's a connection.
33:23Physical attraction definitely can grow.
33:25She needs to get outside of her head.
33:27We need to be open and try and push ourselves.
33:29Are you a bit high-maintenance?
33:31Not, like, not even...
33:32I think you've got a little bit of it.
33:34I've seen a little bit of a fiery side already.
33:36Oh, because of the fire eyes.
33:37Yeah.
33:37Why, what happened?
33:38They said, like, oh, can we kiss?
33:41And Lee was like, no, what he said once, I'm not doing it.
33:44What is the reason you didn't want to kiss?
33:45I'm a bit of a slow burner.
33:48Don't rush things or, like, do things when I'm not ready.
33:54I was going to say, that's a conversation I wanted to have with you, like, early on.
33:59I'd appreciate if you respect my boundaries.
34:02What are your boundaries?
34:03I recharge by having my own time.
34:06What?
34:06I just might need a couple of hours to myself.
34:12She already said she wants her own time already.
34:16I'm in for a great old night.
34:20Obviously, we're here for a marriage, but how are we actually meant to get to know each other
34:23if we're not together and spending time together?
34:26Have you got any concerns?
34:30Are there any, like, red flags?
34:32She goes for really masked girls.
34:34Yeah.
34:34So I'm not her type.
34:35You're not used to someone being like, you're not my type.
34:39Why don't you just get a number one all over?
34:41Might have to.
34:43The sexual attraction isn't there.
34:45We can look past that because it's based on listening to her friends and just the general vibe.
34:51Yeah.
34:51There's a lot of potential chemistry there.
34:53What I don't want to do is try and force myself to rush into something and then feel uncomfortable
34:59and then I pull back and shut down.
35:02Because of my past relationships, I'm definitely a lot more guarded.
35:06Family and friends think there's a lot of fundamentals between us that align, but I don't know.
35:11I overheard you were chatting on the table.
35:14Was that she needs three hours when she gets home from work or was that...
35:17Yeah, she likes to have her own time.
35:19That might be a challenge in this process because you're not going to have that three-hour period away from each other.
35:24You're not going to have that now.
35:25So she may struggle.
35:26Cheers to us.
35:37It's opening up.
35:38Yeah.
35:42Sorry, I'm just a bit flushed.
35:44So we should definitely work on talking French much, much, much more.
35:48Does that make you happy?
35:50It makes some part of me happy.
35:52There is an unreal amount of sexual tension between Tafid and I, but we promise that we will wait before we are intimate with one another.
36:04To just make sure that that emotional trust is just completely there.
36:08I thought we were happy to wait.
36:11I said I was happy. I didn't say it wasn't hard.
36:14I'm dying to be intimate with Kia, not going to lie.
36:17But I want to build up the tension a little bit more.
36:20I know things have gotten a little bit freesky, but we have stopped each other a lot.
36:26No one wants to get intimate in 30-odd degree heat.
36:29It's unbearable.
36:32I'm already a profuse sweater.
36:35Can you imagine? It would be like a slip and slide.
36:37It doesn't feel like we've met each other less than a week ago.
36:48Yeah, it's just taken back by it.
36:51Bamboo rafting with Nelly, it's been so romantic.
36:54Couldn't have expected any more.
36:56Beautiful person looking across from me.
36:57Do you think we're a bit delusional just being in our own little bubble about how good it is?
37:02No.
37:02I'm having the best time with Stephen.
37:05Honestly, it's everything I could have asked for.
37:08It's too good to be true.
37:09I kind of didn't want to get back.
37:11So you're wanting more, basically?
37:13Um, how did you guess?
37:22Cheers to today.
37:23Absolutely.
37:27I'm having a really good time.
37:29It's been an amazing time.
37:30A couple more days, we'll be back in the UK.
37:33I've never lived with a guy before.
37:36Honestly.
37:37I'm a bit nervous.
37:39I think it's just going so good and we're having such a good time.
37:43But I'm waiting for something to happen, which I know is not great.
37:47Just a little bit cautious of it sort of crashing down around us.
37:52What scares you in this marriage?
37:54So I've only had, like, three relationships.
37:59Um, they were all unfaithful.
38:04It's such a big trigger for me.
38:05And I think, honestly, if you had, I just don't see how it could work, me and you.
38:10I would just be thinking, red flag, what am I getting myself into?
38:13Look, living together could pose these challenges.
38:20But I've never cheated.
38:24Yes.
38:26Honestly, do you know how much better that makes me feel?
38:30Like, that is great.
38:31I am so, so glad.
38:37It just really reassured me.
38:38Right now, it's tick, tick, tick, and he's not putting a foot wrong.
38:41I can only show you in actions.
38:43Words mean nothing until I actually prove the point.
38:46Honestly, that makes me feel so much better that you said you've never cheated on anyone.
38:49That's such a big relief.
38:50Is that where you're finding everything so far?
39:06Yeah, it's a lot more intense than I thought it was going to be.
39:08Can't lie.
39:10This process is proven difficult.
39:12I thought it was going to be easy.
39:13I expected it would just run swimmingly.
39:15Where are we going now?
39:16Ooh!
39:17Secret gardens.
39:18This is beautiful, isn't it?
39:20I'm willing to speak to Sarah and tell her how I'm feeling, because that's how you go forward.
39:25Oh, hello.
39:27Hello, Vera.
39:31She was saying hello to us.
39:34Can't ignore her.
39:38It's hi, Basel.
39:39Didn't work.
39:41Sometimes they don't work.
39:43Dean making the herb jokes is not helping the situation.
39:47It's becoming an egg.
39:50Yeah, it's nice here, though.
39:55Pretty mint, if you ask me.
39:56Stop that.
39:57Please, honestly, just stop.
40:02If I'm honest, like, yesterday was a lot for me.
40:04That was probably the hardest day I've had, personally.
40:06But I found myself going back to being that fat kid at school, you know, that didn't get
40:11the girls and wasn't very popular.
40:13It didn't sit at ease with me at all.
40:15I was like, I'm so, so past that, or I thought I was so past that.
40:19I think it was, like, the rejection.
40:20Like, it feels a little bit of rejection, doesn't it?
40:22And I think the more I'm getting to know you, obviously, the more I am liking you.
40:27But I also don't want to get hurt.
40:32From your point, like, would it be any different if I wasn't as big?
40:35Because, obviously, I haven't always been.
40:36Um, the last thing I want to do is upsetting, but I have to be honest.
40:50Probably.
40:54I think there maybe would be more of that attraction sexual chemistry.
40:59Um, sorry.
41:02OK.
41:02I want to be open and transparent with you.
41:06I don't want to, you know, hide anything or pretend.
41:08Yeah, yeah, yeah.
41:12Are you OK?
41:19Hearing Sarah say that did hurt my feelings.
41:23Yeah.
41:27Just remember, I'm also a prize.
41:31Like, I am what I am, isn't it?
41:32I am.
41:35Attraction's just not here.
41:52Somebody come.
41:53Somebody come.
41:56Isn't this a dream, though?
41:57Oh, yeah, something real.
42:00Oh!
42:01Oh!
42:01Oh!
42:10I'm just really not sure how I'm feeling about Ash at the moment.
42:14I'm not impressed with him.
42:16The comment that was said just caught me right at the wrong time.
42:19But waking up today, I am trying to have a different mindset.
42:23I have to keep reminding myself to leave in a couple days,
42:25and I need to have an open mind.
42:30No fun.
42:32Good one!
42:34Pick of Mai Tai.
42:36Is he doing it for you?
42:37Yeah.
42:38Woo!
42:38Hapa Hapa.
42:39Mama in trouble.
42:41Go!
42:42Wait.
42:43One.
42:44Ah!
42:44Good one!
42:45Is he allowed to do that?
42:46Ashley, he obviously has to touch on top of the way I was feeling,
42:54trying to make it, like, flirty and fun.
42:56It just made me clam up a bit.
42:58One, two!
42:59The more pressure I feel to be affectionate with someone
43:03that I'm really unsure about, the less likely I am to be affectionate.
43:07Come on.
43:08You're teaching me about all this equality stuff.
43:10Let's go!
43:10I'm not really feeling it.
43:16Come on then, Mike.
43:17Sorry.
43:18I feel like you've got more on you than that.
43:19I'm actually just...
43:20I just don't want to.
43:21I'm not loving it.
43:23It's okay.
43:25I'm just confused.
43:27I'm trying to be me, but I'm not sure.
43:28I feel like everything I'm doing is wrong, and I don't know why.
43:32Are you sure you're okay, though?
43:33Yeah, no, I'm good.
43:34Yeah.
43:35Mm-hmm.
43:37Yeah.
43:38People have told me that marriage...
43:40It's hard.
43:41I think I just...
43:42I don't think it needs to be this hard.
43:49You okay?
43:51I think it comes so naturally to you to be, like, flirtatious and, like, tactile,
43:57but I wasn't really expecting it in, like, a multi-session,
44:00so I just think I felt a bit awkward.
44:02I think I got a bit overwhelmed.
44:05Do you just feel like I was coming on a bit strong?
44:07I'd love to just work on, like, the friendship part first.
44:11Right.
44:12Okay.
44:14Ultimately, I'm in here for...
44:16I know.
44:16..a different reason than friendship.
44:18So, yeah, look, I want to be friends and that,
44:20but it's like we're here, like, we've signed up to marry a complete stranger
44:25in an experiment, and it's kind of working at a marriage
44:27rather than a friendship.
44:29Yeah, I do get that.
44:32It's like I already kind of feel like we are running slow,
44:36feeling, like, flirting.
44:37I don't see us, like, a big jump.
44:39Yeah.
44:41To be fair, we are married.
44:44I think I just...
44:45I'm a bit in my own head.
44:46Okay.
44:46I hoped it would be a bit easier,
44:50but I have struggled in this process.
44:52It's way harder than I thought it was going to be.
44:54Sorry.
44:55I don't know.
44:56I'm going to apologise.
44:57Still getting to know each other.
44:58Exactly.
44:59Yeah.
44:59I'm definitely outside my comfort zone as someone's wife.
45:03I kind of wish I was a bit more open-hearted in the way that he is.
45:07But still early days, I'm committed to the process.
45:11So, baby steps from here.
45:15Yeah, thanks for understanding.
45:19Going into the day, Grace and I had a tough time,
45:22but I do appreciate that she's trying.
45:24Maybe you want to go for a walk on a beach or something?
45:25Yeah.
45:26She wants to move at her own pace,
45:28and I'm more than happy to do that.
45:29I understand that friendships make the best marriages.
45:32I'm just hoping that we build a connection from there.
45:52I am really excited for my final dinner.
45:55My breath is taken away.
45:56Like, it's magical.
45:57Every part of this trip is an absolute dream, yeah.
46:00I am lost for words.
46:04For once?
46:06This is amazing, and I'm so happy I'm doing it with you.
46:10Same.
46:10I adore spending every single minute of every day with you.
46:18I know.
46:18I felt the connection from the moment where I walked down the aisle,
46:21and you grabbed my hands and told me it was going to be okay.
46:23And I just, I couldn't appreciate you more in any way.
46:27Same.
46:33You've opened up a lot to me.
46:35You can feel really comfortable.
46:36You are my person, and I'm 100% falling for you.
46:44I feel completely and utterly the same way I am.
46:52I am completely besotted with you.
46:54You're honestly just, yeah, perfect in every way.
47:01I'm going to kiss you now.
47:02Is that okay?
47:02I would, I would hate if you didn't.
47:05Perfect.
47:05Devine and I have definitely found that groove.
47:15I think when it comes to communication,
47:17it was a little bit stunted at the start,
47:19but only because I was so scared to do that vulnerability aspect.
47:24But since I've done that,
47:25I think we've grown from strength to strength.
47:29He's just everything.
47:31Yeah, he's, he's, yeah.
47:34I understand why people write love souls.
47:44Sad it's our last evening.
47:46It has been such a perfect honeymoon.
47:49The honeymoon has been literally everything and more I could have asked for.
47:52We seem like we're really perfectly suited to one another.
47:55I'm really hoping that it's not just that we're in the honeymoon bubble,
47:58but I honestly feel really, really lucky and fortunate.
48:01From the moment I saw you to now,
48:03the word is just wow in general.
48:06Where the hell have you been for 34 years of me life?
48:10Couldn't find the experts enough on this.
48:12I don't know what to say.
48:13Don't you cry on me.
48:14No, no, no, no, no, no, no tears, no tears.
48:17But that was really nice to hear.
48:19So, this being the last night.
48:24That is so cute.
48:26I love that.
48:32I actually can't wait to put that in the apartment.
48:35Which one is this from?
48:36First bottle we popped.
48:38As if you kept that.
48:39That's so sweet.
48:40That's so nice.
48:46Really surprised at Stephen with all those little keepsakes.
48:49It's really reassuring.
48:51Because sometimes I can't gauge whether a guy likes me or not.
48:53I'm like, it just makes me think he likes me too.
48:55I'm not used to it.
48:56Thank you so much for just being an incredible husband so far.
49:01My honeymoon with Nelly.
49:03Absolutely amazing.
49:04Emotionally, we're connecting very well.
49:06And just looking forward to what's to come.
49:08Here's to the apartments and life.
49:10Yes.
49:19How are you feeling?
49:20Good, relaxed.
49:21Feel to be back and chilled.
49:24Yeah.
49:26Someone to ask you a question?
49:28Hmm?
49:31How would you feel...
49:34..if...
49:36..we spent this evening...
49:40..on our own?
49:44What the hell is she doing?
49:48Not exactly how I thought the first night would go after a wedding.
49:53So weird.
49:55Cool.
49:57Sweet.
49:59OK.
50:00I'll see you out.
50:01Oh, thanks.
50:03Do you want me to help you with your case?
50:05I didn't always plan on staying apart from whoever I ended up marrying.
50:10Obviously, Leah wasn't really what I was expecting.
50:14Have a lovely seat.
50:16I respect her boundaries.
50:17However, I think if it continued throughout the process, I'd be like, no, I'm gone.
50:22Well, I'm out.
50:22Well, I'm out.
50:23I'm out.
50:24I'm out.
50:27I'm out.
50:28Next time.
50:29Marriage to me means everything.
50:31More brave singles.
50:33I'm extremely nervous.
50:35Take the ultimate gamble on love.
50:38There's an instant spark for some.
50:41It's love of her set.
50:42Walk the horses and shut on me dregs.
50:44But one bride's unconventional arrival.
50:47Can't believe she's on a horse.
50:49How you doing, you all right?
50:50I thought you were black for a funeral.
50:52And party spirit.
50:53If it was Rosie, I'd be on your second bottle by now.
50:56Ring alarm bells for her groom.
50:57What are you like when you're drunk?
50:59Argumentative.
51:00I'm not 100% sure if maybe it's my type.
51:03Do you reckon you can do it?
51:04Yeah.
51:05And as the honeymoons continue...
51:07I love typo, don't you?
51:09While Grace and Ashley turn a corner...
51:12I thought we'd go to the top of the mountain.
51:15Right.
51:16Lee and Leah's troubles...
51:17Leah, I'm not excited.
51:20You are.
51:20...hit new heights.
51:22No, this is not fun for me.
51:24She doesn't understand the severity of things until it gets too far.
51:28Good.
51:29Can't just give me two seconds.
51:31I've paused off, haven't I?
51:32He's...
51:41I love you.
