00:00:01Previously...
00:00:04Accusations about Danny...
00:00:06You made a fool of my relationship.
00:00:08Saw Beck spiral.
00:00:10You should trust me. I'll take offense for that.
00:00:13Then at the second commitment ceremony...
00:00:15I chose to leave.
00:00:17Leave with a kiss.
00:00:18Rebecca and Steve left the experiment.
00:00:21Are you falling in love?
00:00:23I think, yeah.
00:00:25Love was on full display.
00:00:27I'm falling hard for him.
00:00:29What's a girl to do but swim?
00:00:31As Mel and Luke celebrated their incredible turnaround.
00:00:35We're doing so good.
00:00:36Love that.
00:00:37We love it too.
00:00:38Seriously.
00:00:40Do not lie.
00:00:41You know what you said.
00:00:42You have zero credibility.
00:00:43Why would I make this up?
00:00:45Tensions flared as Danny denied saying Gia was more his type.
00:00:49Did you say that Danny?
00:00:51Absolutely not.
00:00:53In all my years working on Married at First Sight...
00:00:56I have never experienced a woman be so vicious toward other women.
00:01:01I'm gonna go with the toy work quickly.
00:01:03And when challenged by the experts...
00:01:06She's decided to do a runner.
00:01:07Both Brooke and Chris left.
00:01:10Officially ending their time together on the experiment.
00:01:16Tonight.
00:01:18The experiment enters its next exciting chapter.
00:01:24To fall in love in this experiment would mean everything.
00:01:27Over two big nights, love will be in the air.
00:01:31I'm definitely ready to share my life with someone.
00:01:34When three brand new couples enter the experiment.
00:01:38I'm just ready to go all in.
00:01:42First, we meet the regimented groom who's struggling to find true love.
00:01:48She needs to bring femininity.
00:01:49I want submissive vibes.
00:01:51If they have children, that's the first red flag.
00:01:54I'm not here to look after someone else's kids.
00:01:56That's not my job.
00:01:57If the person across from me today embraces woke culture, we'll have a problem.
00:02:03Plus...
00:02:04Ah!
00:02:05Is that a sign?
00:02:07This outgoing bride is looking for her eccentric class clown.
00:02:12Shall we get married?
00:02:13I'm hungry.
00:02:15But will the groom's wedding vows...
00:02:17I've actually got many floors.
00:02:19Carpet, tiles, wood.
00:02:21You name it, baby.
00:02:24Or his mother's unusual tribute...
00:02:27And you turn into a gluttonous pig.
00:02:30Derail the wedding day.
00:02:52Australia's biggest social experiment is embarking on its next exciting chapter.
00:03:00Where two brand new couples will enter the experiment.
00:03:07First up is former military man, Tyson.
00:03:11Being in the Army has shaped me a lot as a person.
00:03:14I'm very disciplined.
00:03:15I'm very structured with how I do things.
00:03:18It's maybe the man I am today.
00:03:20Great career.
00:03:21Great career.
00:03:22And when I have children, if I find the right woman of course, I'll definitely pursue them in a...
00:03:27For a career in the Australian Defence Force.
00:03:30Yeah.
00:03:31And then you want them to go to the Army and...
00:03:33Yeah.
00:03:33Exactly.
00:03:34They'll be...
00:03:34Not the girl though.
00:03:35Definitely not the girl.
00:03:36So the girl can't go...
00:03:37Nah.
00:03:37Nah.
00:03:37Nah.
00:03:38Nah.
00:03:39Dating now to find the one.
00:03:41I want to make sure that she has the same beliefs, the same values and the same morals and principles
00:03:45as me.
00:03:46You know, I wouldn't want a woman that's woke.
00:03:51With green hair and, you know, super overweight.
00:03:55And yeah, I'm just not into that.
00:03:57That's just not me.
00:03:58That's just not who I am as a person.
00:04:01What would be a woke woman for you that you would just absolutely not be able to cope with?
00:04:06A woman with green hair.
00:04:07That's the first red flag.
00:04:09A woman that's a complete feminist and hates men.
00:04:13A woman that hates Donald Trump.
00:04:14I personally like Trump.
00:04:15I reckon he's doing a great job.
00:04:16A lot of these woke people that I've met aren't the shopper's tools in the shed, John.
00:04:21Tell me, you know, in terms of, I guess, a deal breaker, what would they be?
00:04:26So, the big one is if they have children.
00:04:29I'm not here to look after someone else's kids.
00:04:31That's not my job.
00:04:33If this girl likes to go out and party and have girls nights every weekend, that ain't for me and
00:04:37she knows where the door is.
00:04:38They're my big deal breakers there, John.
00:04:40And also I'd say like a full-blown atheist as well.
00:04:42I don't want a woman with a high body count.
00:04:44That's another huge red flag.
00:04:46It tells me that she's probably got daddy issues.
00:04:48I'm not after a girl that has daddy issues.
00:04:54Yeah, I'm very open to sharing my opinion with other people.
00:04:57I could ask, what about same-sex marriage?
00:04:59Well, that doesn't really bother me too much.
00:05:02What bothers me if it gets pushed in my face all the time?
00:05:05Like, look at us.
00:05:06Like, gay.
00:05:07I'm not trying to push it onto me.
00:05:08Or even gay guys coming up to me.
00:05:09I don't like that, you know?
00:05:10I'm not gay.
00:05:11That's on you guys.
00:05:12Whatever you do behind closed doors.
00:05:14Have you been here on my guard?
00:05:15Of course.
00:05:16I think it's important not to shy away from your beliefs.
00:05:20Stay true to who you are as an individual.
00:05:22And if you've got something to say, say it.
00:05:26I've been single now for quite some time.
00:05:29I was married about five, six years ago.
00:05:31I met this girl in Utah.
00:05:33Got married.
00:05:34She came to Australia to live.
00:05:36But she was a little bit messy around the house.
00:05:39And there's a few other things.
00:05:40You know, plates in the kitchen sink.
00:05:42But basically, it couldn't work out because after a certain period of time,
00:05:46we couldn't stand to live with each other.
00:05:48Which I think was a year.
00:05:50And then we got divorced.
00:05:52And then, yeah, here I am now.
00:05:55Still trying to find the one.
00:05:58I really want to start a family soon.
00:06:01I bought this house with the intentions of starting a family in it.
00:06:04It's a beautiful house.
00:06:05You know, four bedrooms, three bathrooms.
00:06:07But loneliness is something that I sometimes feel.
00:06:11I have this big house and I'm here by myself.
00:06:16I feel like married at first sight is my last resort.
00:06:19Just because the conventional way of how I've done things.
00:06:22You know, whether I try and meet someone in the supermarket.
00:06:23Hasn't worked.
00:06:25What I look for in a partner is a woman that has the same,
00:06:28similar mindset to me.
00:06:29So that's ambitious.
00:06:31That is a go-getter.
00:06:33You know, wants to succeed.
00:06:35A woman that's feminine as well.
00:06:38Has those feminine traits that she can bring to my house.
00:06:41And obviously the relationship.
00:06:43But trying to find that partner that has all those attributes that I want is very difficult.
00:06:48I am very black and white.
00:06:50And I do consider that a potential factor to why maybe I'm still single at the age of 30.
00:06:55But one thing's for sure, I've got full faith in the expert's opinion.
00:07:00And I'm very confident that I'll find the woman in my dreams on the show.
00:07:06Don't come at me with your woke shit.
00:07:09I think it's all gone too far.
00:07:11For the love of God.
00:07:12Like, pull it together.
00:07:13Reel it in.
00:07:14It's all good.
00:07:15We're all equal.
00:07:16We're all playing our part.
00:07:17We're all doing our bit.
00:07:19Like, oh my God, I'm a vegan.
00:07:20I'm a feminist.
00:07:21I'm a that.
00:07:22Like, ugh.
00:07:23It's not me.
00:07:24You know, as much as people, you know, hate him, you know, it's taken something like
00:07:30Trump to come in and be like, but I'm putting a stop to this shit.
00:07:36I'm Stephanie.
00:07:37I'm 32.
00:07:38I'm from Brisbane and I'm a real estate agent.
00:07:39So through here, we have the living space.
00:07:42And as you can see, it's really open plan living, which is just beautiful.
00:07:46How long have you been single?
00:07:50How long have I been single?
00:07:54Um, well, I had the last kind of somewhat of a relationship I had was when I was 21 years
00:08:01old and I'm now 32.
00:08:04So you do the math.
00:08:06Never had a serious adult relationship.
00:08:13I think my friends and family describe me as like very outgoing, very funny, but also
00:08:18they know I'm a sensitive soul.
00:08:21I've got big walls up, very like guarded of my heart.
00:08:28I didn't think you've developed these, these walls and sort of protection mechanisms.
00:08:32I think it has a lot to do with when I was probably about 15 or 16.
00:08:39Um, my parents split up and it was quite a, you know, heavy time for everyone involved.
00:08:46And then seeing what my mum went through, seeing what my dad went through.
00:08:50It was horrendous.
00:08:51I don't want to go through that.
00:08:53Yeah.
00:08:54But I just need to kind of let go and be like, you know what?
00:08:56That doesn't have to be my story.
00:09:01I think I'm ready to fall in love.
00:09:03I mean, in a perfect world to be like mum and dad and the little babies and the poochie,
00:09:09you know, that's like, that's the little, that's the picture I have in my mind.
00:09:14What are your views on traditional relationships?
00:09:17Like when we say traditional relationships, are you referring to like woman stays at home,
00:09:23man goes out and works?
00:09:24Look, I'm not against it.
00:09:25I think it is, it's what works for the couple, right?
00:09:28Um, and I think if everyone's happy, then so be it.
00:09:31So the kind of man I think it will take.
00:09:35Yeah, I do think it will be someone who like very much will take charge.
00:09:41Be a man, I want a man of the house, someone who's masculine.
00:09:46I want to step more into my feminine and like, yeah, let someone else take control.
00:09:51I don't want someone who's so soft, you know, like useless as a chocolate teapot.
00:09:59Both Stephanie and Tyson want that traditional white picket fence life.
00:10:05I think Stephanie could be a good match for Tyson.
00:10:07She does share some of those conservative worldviews.
00:10:11So although Stephanie might challenge Tyson, I think it's their similarities that will bind them together.
00:10:17They both lead disciplined lives. They work out every day.
00:10:21Neither one of them parties.
00:10:23And they both have very similar views on what they want for their future.
00:10:27That's actually quite rare these days.
00:10:29So what do we think? Stephanie and Tyson?
00:10:33Let's do it.
00:10:34The first new couple has been unveiled.
00:10:38Stephanie and Tyson.
00:10:41Next to enter the experiment is an extroverted bride who is hoping to find her equally eccentric soulmate.
00:10:49I'm Juliette. I'm 27 and I'm a receptionist from Melbourne.
00:10:53I get married!
00:10:55I try to live life without any regrets.
00:10:58My theory in life is yes man.
00:11:01I love to have fun. I love to travel. I love to just live life.
00:11:05So I just like to say yes to almost everything.
00:11:09I'm a husband!
00:11:11I want my future husband to be someone who when you know I'm like going through the aisles of coals
00:11:18like dancing and like just like feeling myself.
00:11:21I just like would like someone who wants to you know celebrate that of me rather than try make me
00:11:29hide that of myself.
00:11:30Someone who's like genius!
00:11:33I'm envisioning like class clown vibes you know everybody's favourite guy like perfectly matches your energy level.
00:11:40I want a goofball. I want a goofball.
00:11:43That looks after you.
00:11:43I want to laugh. I just want to laugh.
00:11:45Like how much is it going to take for me to laugh?
00:11:51Are you hungry?
00:11:52I'm so hungry. What have you got for us tonight?
00:11:56Obviously you're close with your sister. How close are we talking?
00:11:59Freaky close. Like I love to do everything with her.
00:12:02She's like slipped into that role of what I probably would be doing with my partner.
00:12:06Yeah, she's my rock.
00:12:07I reckon this guy's the one.
00:12:09Why? What gives you that vibe?
00:12:11I mean if he's crazy enough to take an opportunity like you have that's already a green flag in my
00:12:16head.
00:12:17That's true.
00:12:18Pretty much the whole time I've been single I've been rejected.
00:12:25Guys who have thought that I was too much and that's really like hurt my soul, hurt my character.
00:12:34And so I would want someone who is going to want to celebrate me for like me.
00:12:44What I want for my husband is someone that's not afraid of like my loudness.
00:12:52They love experiencing life. They love going to restaurants. They love trying new things.
00:12:56Yeah.
00:12:58Big fat of that.
00:12:59So I want them to have that same zest for life.
00:13:05I'm so excited to marry a stranger.
00:13:07I think it's like a crazy, crazy challenge and it's going to come with really good rewards.
00:13:14Hopefully. Fingers crossed.
00:13:23When people first meet me they normally think that I'm just loud, obnoxious and immature.
00:13:29And do you agree with that?
00:13:32I agree with the loud part.
00:13:38I laugh at everything and I always laugh at myself, to myself.
00:13:44I'm literally walking in an airport alone, making jokes to myself.
00:13:48And I'm thinking I'm the funniest person on earth.
00:13:55I'm Joel, I'm 31, I'm from Sydney and I'm a model.
00:14:04So I'm a model now, which I never thought in my wildest dreams would ever happen.
00:14:08I was a fat Uber driver for six years.
00:14:13Yeah.
00:14:14Are they going to actually show that?
00:14:16Like, I want them to.
00:14:17Like, that's a request.
00:14:21You know what, I've never met anyone that describes themselves in the past as a fat Uber driver.
00:14:27Talk to me, what were you like? What was going on?
00:14:29The turning point really was five years ago when my ex-girlfriend broke up with me.
00:14:36That was the turning point.
00:14:37I was at my lowest point.
00:14:39I was obese.
00:14:41I was 105 kilos.
00:14:4220 kilos heavier than I am now.
00:14:44Yeah.
00:14:45I was a dead man, a broken man, and I needed to piece myself together.
00:14:50I've got to get to work.
00:14:51I've got to upgrade mind, body, soul.
00:14:53If you want to attract your dream woman, then you've got to become her dream man.
00:15:01For the last five years, I've been in self-development boot camp.
00:15:06Day in, day out, I've been reading.
00:15:09I've been meditating.
00:15:10I've been exercising.
00:15:11I've been trying to become a man of value and principle.
00:15:19Why now maths?
00:15:20Because you could just keep being in the self-improvement lab doing your stuff.
00:15:24Well, I'm ready.
00:15:25I'm ready for the new life.
00:15:27I'm ready for the new life.
00:15:29I am, I'm whole now.
00:15:35It would mean everything to me to find the love of my life.
00:15:39That's what I've been working towards.
00:15:41My message for the experts is just please bring me someone that is boisterous, loud, kind-hearted, empathetic, and full
00:15:49of love.
00:15:50Someone that I can love and someone that loves me and accepts me for who I am.
00:15:55My mantra for life is to not take myself too seriously and to not take life too seriously.
00:16:01I find everything funny.
00:16:03I see life through the lens of humour.
00:16:08The best way we can describe Joel is he's theatrical.
00:16:13He's a big personality, a big character.
00:16:15Joel has done a lot of work on himself.
00:16:18He's lost a lot of weight, he's changed careers, and he's really embraced his extroverted side.
00:16:25Juliet is looking for an extrovert, a goofball, a big personality that doesn't make her feel like she is too
00:16:33much.
00:16:33She wants someone with her same level of energy, someone with a zest for life.
00:16:38I think Joel and Juliet are going to be a really fun match.
00:16:42Juliet and Joel and Stephanie and Tyson have been matched.
00:16:47And in just a few short hours, the new matches will meet and marry at the altar.
00:16:54How do you think they're feeling?
00:16:55Very nervous.
00:16:56I remember how nervous I was.
00:16:58The original couples will split into two groups to attend the nuptials.
00:17:03Lovely.
00:17:05Look at your work.
00:17:06You are a masterpiece.
00:17:07This is my first rodeo, babe.
00:17:09Alright.
00:17:09Lovely.
00:17:10Let's blow this joint.
00:17:12Let's watch two strangers get married.
00:17:14I know.
00:17:14Have fun.
00:17:16But Will unfinished business between two of the original brides, Bec and Gia, resurface at today's weddings.
00:17:26At last night's commitment ceremony, Bec rejected Gia's accusations about her husband Danny.
00:17:34Gia made a comment to me that on Saturday night, Danny said to her, in the outside world, you would
00:17:43be the type of girl that I would be interested in, not me.
00:17:48Did you say that, Danny?
00:17:49Absolutely not.
00:17:50Of course not.
00:17:52Joking?
00:17:53Why the f*** would I make that up?
00:17:54And Bec, do you believe Danny at this point?
00:17:56I know how loyal he is, and I feel like we've got a real connection.
00:18:07Bec said that I'd ruined her relationship.
00:18:10Her insecurities are making her believe that I'm the problem here.
00:18:15If she doesn't want to believe me, and she wants to still believe Danny, I don't know how that's going
00:18:18to go, to be honest.
00:18:23None of this would have happened if it wasn't for Gia talking about my husband.
00:18:31She wants to hurt me.
00:18:33She wants to make things up about my husband.
00:18:35I do not believe it for a second.
00:18:38Give us a twirl.
00:18:39Which way are you going?
00:18:41Sexy later.
00:18:43It's uncalled for and unjust, and it's made an enemy in me.
00:18:47It's a wedding!
00:18:49Fun!
00:18:49Let's go.
00:18:52I feel like I deserve an apology from Gia.
00:18:55Either speak in facts or don't speak at all.
00:19:06As Juliet and Joel prepare to walk down the aisle,
00:19:11Joel's best man is on hand to help.
00:19:17Yo, what's up?
00:19:19This is my real best man.
00:19:21Right here.
00:19:22Never let me down once.
00:19:2431 years.
00:19:25Still kicking.
00:19:26Still the OG.
00:19:27Still the OG.
00:19:30It's not ideal that I don't have a best man.
00:19:34But I have got my mum coming.
00:19:36Best mum.
00:19:38Hello handsome.
00:19:40Hello beautiful mum.
00:19:41My mother is my guru.
00:19:42She's my therapist.
00:19:43She's my spiritual guide.
00:19:44She's everything to me.
00:19:45Thank God for mum.
00:19:46I've got a whole bag of food.
00:19:48Would you like a banana?
00:19:50Just some nice, something fresh.
00:19:52Joel and I are very close and we've really been a very tight unit, the two of us.
00:19:58How about chicken sandwich?
00:20:01Joel texts me so many times a day and emails, I have to put him on mute.
00:20:06I love that we're that close but honestly sometimes it's intense.
00:20:11Let's see if you like my specialised chicken sandwiches.
00:20:15I'm sort of going to have a rest now that he's going to be busy.
00:20:20Mmm.
00:20:22See.
00:20:24I want him to cling on to another woman.
00:20:28Truly.
00:20:31Alright, any other snacks my love?
00:20:36Across town, Juliet is feeling optimistic.
00:20:41Dream outcome today is love at first sight.
00:20:45For both of us, not just for me.
00:20:49We're just going to be giddy the whole time.
00:20:52That's my dream situation.
00:20:55Just a little goofball by my side.
00:20:58What do you picture your husband doing right now?
00:21:00I picture my husband right now catching up with his groomsmen
00:21:05and finding a brewski in the fridge and maybe doing a cheers to me.
00:21:14In through the nose, out through the mouth.
00:21:18And just releasing any anxiety.
00:21:24That's it.
00:21:33On Sydney Harbour, Juliet and Joel's wedding is about to begin.
00:21:42Wow.
00:21:44Gorgeous.
00:21:45Wow.
00:21:46It's a beautiful setting, isn't it?
00:21:49Wow, what a gorgeous day.
00:21:51They must be his parents.
00:21:54Hello.
00:21:54Hi, I'm Ellie.
00:21:55Hello.
00:21:56I'm Sharon.
00:21:57Are you the groomsmother?
00:21:58I'm the groomsmother.
00:21:59Hello, Sharon.
00:22:01Sorry, what was your name again?
00:22:03I'm Ellie.
00:22:04Ellie.
00:22:04Nice to meet you.
00:22:05Nice to meet you.
00:22:07I'm excited for this.
00:22:09Joining Juliet and Joel's friends and family are the original couples.
00:22:14I'm excited.
00:22:15Hi guys.
00:22:16Mel and Luke.
00:22:17Gia and Scott.
00:22:18How are we all?
00:22:19Stella and Phillip.
00:22:20How are we going?
00:22:21Hi everybody.
00:22:22How are we?
00:22:23And Beck and Danny.
00:22:25Are you guys nervous?
00:22:27Excited?
00:22:27Yeah, it's good.
00:22:28You're not getting married.
00:22:29After coming off of a bad week and a really bad time with Danny, being here today definitely
00:22:36reminded me of my own wedding.
00:22:37It's actually a really beautiful feeling.
00:22:40Oh, you're not part of, because we thought you had extra guests.
00:22:43No, we're in the experiment.
00:22:44We're all the other couples.
00:22:45Oh, wow.
00:22:47Congratulations.
00:22:48We've all done this three weeks ago.
00:22:51And how is it?
00:22:53How did you find the experiment?
00:22:54It's great.
00:22:55It's working for us.
00:22:56These two are in love.
00:22:58They're in love.
00:22:59They're the real deal, yeah?
00:23:01We are two, to be fair, but...
00:23:05The real deal, aren't we?
00:23:07But, um, yeah.
00:23:08Thanks, man.
00:23:17Here he comes.
00:23:22Here he is.
00:23:27There he is.
00:23:29My new family.
00:23:30Hello.
00:23:32We're your new friends.
00:23:33Here we go.
00:23:51What's going on?
00:23:52Where'd you get the suit?
00:23:53Suit supply.
00:23:55You like it?
00:24:00Nice to meet you.
00:24:01Hi.
00:24:01I'm Bec.
00:24:02Bec, Joel.
00:24:03Nice to meet you.
00:24:04Nice to meet you.
00:24:04Are you nervous?
00:24:05Um, I've been less nervous before.
00:24:07Okay.
00:24:08Yeah, but they...
00:24:09Hello, Joel.
00:24:09How are you?
00:24:10What's your name?
00:24:11Ellie.
00:24:12I'm Joel.
00:24:13Hi.
00:24:14Yeah.
00:24:14I am the bride's mother.
00:24:16Oh.
00:24:16True.
00:24:17That's right, the front row seats.
00:24:19Yeah.
00:24:19Joel.
00:24:23Yeah.
00:24:24Is this different?
00:24:27I really want to tell you something right now, but I can't.
00:24:31Can't tell her to...
00:24:33You know?
00:24:36No.
00:24:38Well, where's your name again, Joel?
00:24:39I've said it like three times.
00:24:41Oh, sorry, I couldn't hear you.
00:24:42Just, hey, remember, we're your new friends in this experiment,
00:24:45we're all the other couples, so chill.
00:24:47Are we besties already?
00:24:49We've all been here a month.
00:24:50You guys are doing what we did a month ago, so...
00:24:53Are you still nervous, or are you nervous?
00:24:54No.
00:24:55You should be, though.
00:24:57Jesus.
00:24:58Like, shots fired in the first two minutes.
00:25:01Give him some grace.
00:25:03It's not a time to be attacking someone.
00:25:07Standard behaviour, though, you know.
00:25:10I didn't know this was gonna be, you know, the colleagues in front, you know.
00:25:14You're gonna be fine, Joel.
00:25:15You're gonna be fine, mate.
00:25:17This whole period has been quite anxious and nerve-wracking.
00:25:23A lot of people who meet me don't really understand me.
00:25:27They just see something and judge me.
00:25:32So, I hope my future wife doesn't judge me too quickly.
00:25:38That's Joel.
00:25:39Hi, Joel.
00:25:40Hi.
00:25:41Hi.
00:25:41I'm Saatchi.
00:25:42I'm Trinity.
00:25:43Trinity.
00:25:44This is sister.
00:25:45Lovely to meet you.
00:25:47Nice to meet you.
00:25:48He's a tool.
00:25:52He's a tool.
00:25:54He's a tool.
00:25:54Everything he's saying, I'm getting an egg.
00:25:56I wanna turn around and get in on the jokes.
00:25:59I don't even know her yet and I feel bad for her.
00:26:12Ah!
00:26:13Is that a sign?
00:26:14No, I'm joking.
00:26:17I definitely believe in love at first sight.
00:26:21I'm hoping when I get to the end of the aisle, I'm gonna see a confident man.
00:26:26Someone who's as, like, crazy and risk-taking as I am.
00:26:31I'm just ready to go all in.
00:26:33You know, I've been craving that partnership for so long.
00:26:37So, I will try extremely hard to make sure that this is gonna be the love of my life.
00:26:45I just hope that he's gonna be as trusting of this process as I am.
00:26:51Especially, like, knowing how vulnerable I'm gonna be in this situation.
00:26:54I need him to take the experiment really seriously.
00:26:57I'm in this for the long haul.
00:27:05Oh, my God, she was beautiful.
00:27:13Oh, no.
00:27:16I'm worried.
00:27:19Been to such a beautiful wedding today.
00:27:21I was hoping to see a fairy tale.
00:27:25And I feel bad for this girl who's coming down to this weirdo.
00:27:29Like, if that was my husband and I turned around, I'm running.
00:27:32You would have left to say,
00:27:34I'm f***ing gone.
00:27:35Everyone get your seat belts on.
00:27:38Hello.
00:27:39Hello.
00:27:51Oh, no.
00:27:53I'm worried.
00:27:54Everyone get your seat belts on.
00:27:56Hello.
00:27:59How are we going, guys?
00:28:06Hello.
00:28:08Hi.
00:28:09Oh, my God.
00:28:10Hello.
00:28:11Wifey.
00:28:12Hi, hubby.
00:28:13Hello, darling.
00:28:15You look gorgeous.
00:28:17How are you?
00:28:17You look gorgeous.
00:28:19Jasmine.
00:28:20Jasmine?
00:28:20Aladdin.
00:28:21Princess Jasmine.
00:28:22Yeah.
00:28:23I guess.
00:28:25I'm giving.
00:28:26I thought you looked absolutely beautiful.
00:28:28She's got that sort of Arabian, you know, goddess, princess look.
00:28:33Regal, nice skin, soft eyes.
00:28:36I'm a happy boy.
00:28:38Happy boy.
00:28:38Happy boy alert.
00:28:39Sirens going off.
00:28:40Happy boy here.
00:28:41What's your name?
00:28:42My name?
00:28:43Yeah.
00:28:43Husband.
00:28:44Husband.
00:28:45Wife.
00:28:45Joel.
00:28:45Joel.
00:28:46Hi, Joel.
00:28:47And your name?
00:28:48Wife.
00:28:48Wife?
00:28:50Yeah, Juliet Shea wife.
00:28:52Juliet.
00:28:53Beautiful name.
00:28:54Aw, great start.
00:28:56I can feel the connection.
00:28:58I can feel it.
00:28:59I definitely think he's like a beautiful man.
00:29:02So, I'm excited to get to know him.
00:29:04I have to help.
00:29:06This is the first ask I might do with you.
00:29:08I just unbuttoned it.
00:29:10Oh.
00:29:10What do I do?
00:29:11There's all button things there before we start asking.
00:29:14I didn't think I'd get hands on this early.
00:29:18Anyways, there we go.
00:29:20Consent.
00:29:20That's consent in action.
00:29:22Yeah, yeah.
00:29:23Yeah.
00:29:23We love consent.
00:29:24Yeah.
00:29:25As soon as we started having banter, I got a really good feeling.
00:29:30I think we're going to get along great.
00:29:33My first marriage was quite different.
00:29:36Oh.
00:29:36Yeah.
00:29:40Was it kind of the same vibe marrying a stranger?
00:29:42No, it was my teddy bear.
00:29:43Yeah.
00:29:44Not a human.
00:29:45Good save.
00:29:46Yeah.
00:29:49Shall we get married?
00:29:51I'm hungry.
00:29:59I love how loud he is.
00:30:01He's definitely that classic class clown.
00:30:04That's a sleigh.
00:30:05That's great.
00:30:07That's something I can work with.
00:30:09Hello, everyone.
00:30:10And welcome to the wedding of Joel and Juliet.
00:30:13Yay!
00:30:14Yay!
00:30:14Jay and Jay.
00:30:17My name is Andrea, and I'm absolutely honoured to be here today celebrating these two incredible
00:30:22humans as they take one of the most exciting and terrifying leaps of faith that they've ever
00:30:28taken.
00:30:29So, with that, I'll invite you both to share your vows.
00:30:33Okay.
00:30:34Juliet, you're up first.
00:30:35Oh.
00:30:36Okay.
00:30:37Hi, Joel.
00:30:38What a lovely way to meet my forever.
00:30:41The decision to find my one true love by marrying a stranger is almost as wild as I am, but
00:30:48it feels right.
00:30:50It feels like it might be our destiny.
00:30:54I am real.
00:30:55I say it like it is, and I ride till the end for the ones I love.
00:31:00I love hard, and if you have me in your corner, you have nothing to fear.
00:31:05I will be the lady to your tramp to share your spaghetti bolognese with, and I'll be a plot
00:31:12twist to your story.
00:31:14Unexpected, chaotic, and hopefully unforgettable.
00:31:19And just a warning, in the wise words of Charlie XCX, everyone's just a freak, but some
00:31:26people are trying to hide it and some people embrace it.
00:31:29And I can confidently say, I'm a girl who embraces it.
00:31:34Oh.
00:31:35Here's to forever hubby.
00:31:38Beautiful.
00:31:40Really great speech.
00:31:42I loved it.
00:31:43Juliet's vows were great.
00:31:45I really enjoyed them.
00:31:46I thought they were heartfelt.
00:31:47I thought they had some humorous bits.
00:31:48She's got a good sense of humor.
00:31:50I reckon we're going to have a lot of laughs together, and that's what it's about for me.
00:31:55Well, this isn't your typical man-meets-woman story.
00:32:01From the moment I saw you, I just had this funny feeling that it was going to take less
00:32:05than two sidings to marry you.
00:32:10My mother says I'm perfect, but I most certainly disagree.
00:32:14I've actually got many flaws.
00:32:16Carpet, tiles, wood, you name it, baby.
00:32:22So you might be wondering, who exactly are you marrying?
00:32:27Who is this perfectly manicured, dapper, suave, sexy, unsophisticated, undomesticated, uncultured,
00:32:34one-fats Uber driver, now turned model, who can't tell the difference between a bloody
00:32:38washing machine or a dryer, who says what he thinks and who is unapologetically himself
00:32:42at all times, with no exceptions for anyone, anything, anytime or anyplace?
00:32:49To my wife, I want to really know you.
00:32:52All your quirks, your dreams, your fears, your annoying habits,
00:32:57your questionable clothing items.
00:33:00Loose and baggy equals daggy.
00:33:04All Birkenstocks and Crocs must be incinerated immediately.
00:33:09Oh, my gosh. Oh, my God.
00:33:11And I want you to know me just the same.
00:33:13To me, marriage is more than love.
00:33:15It's friendship, loyalty, and showing up for each other on the easy days and the hard ones.
00:33:20It's knowing that no matter what the world throws at us, we've got each other's backs
00:33:23and if you scratch mine, I'll scratch yours.
00:33:27The funny thing about my back is that it's actually located on my back.
00:33:33I love you.
00:33:47Joel's an extravagant man for sure, but I love that about him.
00:33:53I think he's going to make me laugh a lot and that's something I said to the experts.
00:33:56I want someone to make me laugh.
00:33:59It is my absolute joy and honour to pronounce Joel and Juliet as husband and wife.
00:34:06You can feel him in a kiss.
00:34:08You can feel him in a kiss.
00:34:08You can feel him in a kiss.
00:34:09Whoa!
00:34:15Joel and Juliet!
00:34:24Yeah!
00:34:24Yeah. Kisses already.
00:34:29God.
00:34:33If she likes him, fine, but I wouldn't.
00:34:35You think he's a model?
00:34:37For toilet cleaner, babe.
00:34:39Like, as we said, like, not normal shit.
00:34:41No. It's a no.
00:34:43We'll see how this reception goes.
00:34:45This is going to be pretty hectic.
00:34:46Because if he starts getting pissed, he might throw some bombs.
00:34:49You don't know.
00:34:49I'll take him down if he does.
00:34:51Because...
00:34:53Next, the experiment's most opinionated groom meets his match.
00:35:00Um...
00:35:01Hello.
00:35:02I did get some woke vibes there.
00:35:06And Joel is in the hot seat.
00:35:09Is Juliet the type that you would desire?
00:35:12What'd you ask for? Be specific.
00:35:16We're going in-depth already.
00:35:24Today is Stephanie and Tyson's big day.
00:35:27And for this former soldier, getting married is no reason to skip the workout.
00:35:33What are you doing, Tyson?
00:35:35Just some push-ups.
00:35:37I like to do it in the mornings.
00:35:41It's a nerve-wracking this morning because I don't know who the hell I'm marrying.
00:35:45I feel like I've set my life up pretty well at the age of 30.
00:35:49And I want to come home to love my wife.
00:35:52I put my faith in the experts because I have full trust and full confidence in their ability to find
00:35:58me the right woman.
00:35:59Tell me, do you have any concerns about whether your bride wouldn't be into you?
00:36:04Um, there's always that possibility that she might not like, you know, what she sees.
00:36:09But, look, I'm very confident within myself and I know what I bring to this relationship.
00:36:13So I don't think that'll be an issue.
00:36:18Across town, Stephanie is finally ready to shed her permanently single status
00:36:24and dive into the deep end by marrying a stranger.
00:36:30Best friend Ebony is by her side for this monumental event.
00:36:37Oh, my God, you look so beautiful.
00:36:43I'm feeling good.
00:36:45So if she doesn't really put herself out there with dating or guys for the last few years at least,
00:36:49she's been really working on her career and that's been her focus.
00:36:52So it's massive for her to do this.
00:36:55But I think this is kind of the push she needs to kind of get out there
00:36:58and what better way to do it than on Married at First Sight?
00:37:02Oh, my God, I barely recognise myself.
00:37:05I know.
00:37:06How are you feeling?
00:37:09I'm definitely starting to get nervous now.
00:37:11It's all getting real.
00:37:14The end goal is to find love.
00:37:16Find someone that I can build a life with.
00:37:20I want someone who's masculine with, like, a strong set of traditional values.
00:37:26Someone who I can trust.
00:37:28I started to believe that I would never even wear a wedding dress.
00:37:31Last time I kissed someone was probably, like, three years ago.
00:37:36So, yeah, the fact that, like, I'm getting married today,
00:37:39that's the length that I'm willing to go to,
00:37:42to find love and share that with someone.
00:38:07Oh, my God, that the sun came out for us.
00:38:12I need to take my waistcoat off.
00:38:14It is hot.
00:38:15So, who's who?
00:38:17I'm the dad.
00:38:18I'm uncle.
00:38:19Okay.
00:38:19And the riffraff are behind us.
00:38:21Riffraff.
00:38:22Nice.
00:38:23Are you a mum?
00:38:24Mum.
00:38:24Oh, cool.
00:38:25Yep.
00:38:26Joining the guests are the original couples,
00:38:29Julia and Grayson.
00:38:30Hey, guys, how are we?
00:38:32Rachel and Stephen.
00:38:33Hi.
00:38:34And Alyssa and David.
00:38:36Hello.
00:38:37How are you?
00:38:38How are you going?
00:38:38How are you?
00:38:40Let's get this show up.
00:38:41All right.
00:38:41I am just the rose between all the thorns today on this side.
00:38:47There's a lot of man energy.
00:38:49Many.
00:38:51Why are there so many men on this side?
00:38:52Where's the ladies?
00:38:56I've been looking for love now for quite some time.
00:38:59But trying to find that perfect partner is very difficult.
00:39:03I want my future wife to bring femininity,
00:39:07to bring class,
00:39:09to bring loyalty.
00:39:11And along with that,
00:39:13a sort of sweetness.
00:39:14What I don't want to see walking down the aisle
00:39:16would be a woman with green hair.
00:39:19And quite frankly,
00:39:21if she's woke,
00:39:23I don't really stand for any of that shit.
00:39:39We've been there.
00:39:40Don't worry.
00:39:41Welcome to the family.
00:39:45We're one big happy family of Ian.
00:39:51He's very handsome.
00:39:52He's very handsome.
00:39:54So, who's the mum?
00:39:56How you doing?
00:39:56What was your name, sorry?
00:39:57Lorraine.
00:39:58Lorraine.
00:39:59Tyson.
00:39:59Nice to meet you.
00:40:00Lovely to meet you, Tyson.
00:40:01And who's this?
00:40:02Hello, I'm Ebony.
00:40:03Friends, yes.
00:40:04Friends, okay.
00:40:04Hello, Tyson.
00:40:05Sorry to introduce myself.
00:40:08That's very sweet, Ty.
00:40:13Wow.
00:40:15I so desperately want this day
00:40:17to be the start of the rest of my life.
00:40:20I'm putting my faith in the experts
00:40:21because I'm single at the age of 32.
00:40:24I'm obviously not doing something right.
00:40:26This is the start of me letting someone in
00:40:29and letting the walls down,
00:40:32being vulnerable,
00:40:33opening up your whole heart.
00:40:36Everyone always tells me
00:40:37that love is the best feeling.
00:40:40And to fall in love with this experiment
00:40:42would mean everything.
00:41:02when I saw her walk down the aisle,
00:41:05I did get some woke vibes there.
00:41:07Hello.
00:41:09When you look at someone,
00:41:10you can sort of tell.
00:41:16Hi.
00:41:17Hi, how you doing?
00:41:18I'm Steph.
00:41:19Tyson, nice to meet you.
00:41:27There's a lot going on here.
00:41:30He's very nice to look at.
00:41:32He's got a good tan.
00:41:34He's tall.
00:41:35I definitely think there was, like,
00:41:37some good chemistry there.
00:41:38Liking what I see so far.
00:41:40I hope he shares the same sentiment.
00:41:46You look beautiful, though, so...
00:41:50How old are you?
00:41:51I'm 30.
00:41:5230.
00:41:52You're 30?
00:41:53Mm-hmm.
00:41:54How old are you?
00:41:54Don't mind me asking.
00:41:55How old do you think I am?
00:41:57I'm mid-20s.
00:41:58No, I'm 32.
00:41:5932?
00:42:00Yeah.
00:42:01Yeah.
00:42:01Two years on me.
00:42:02I'm a cougar.
00:42:03Two years.
00:42:03Yeah, I know.
00:42:04Yeah.
00:42:05Nothing wrong with that, I guess.
00:42:07Yeah.
00:42:08Mm.
00:42:11Yeah, look, I asked for someone younger
00:42:14to the fact she's 32.
00:42:17A lot too happy about that.
00:42:19I mean, it's only two years older than me,
00:42:20but I was hoping to essentially get a wife
00:42:22maybe in her mid-20s.
00:42:24Having someone older than me just...
00:42:28..feels weird.
00:42:29Yeah, I'm not really a huge fan of that.
00:42:33Stephanie and Tyson, by exchanging your vows today,
00:42:36things between you will never quite be the same again.
00:42:40No pressure.
00:42:46So to my wife, I'm here to find love.
00:42:49At the age of 30, I'm ready.
00:42:51My life is set, the family home, the car,
00:42:54the foundations are already in place.
00:42:56All I'll be missing is you.
00:42:58Come on.
00:43:01I'm driven, passionate and disciplined.
00:43:03These qualities forged during my six years
00:43:06in the Australian Defence Force.
00:43:07In 2018, I deployed to Afghanistan.
00:43:10That chapter shaped me into who I am today.
00:43:14I hold traditional values close to my heart.
00:43:17I see myself as a provider and a protector.
00:43:19I long for a partner who embodies grace,
00:43:21loyalty and femininity.
00:43:23I stand firmly by my beliefs
00:43:25and I won't waver on them.
00:43:28If the person across from me today
00:43:30embraces woke culture, we'll have a problem.
00:43:37Oh, thank God.
00:43:42Anyway.
00:43:44That's something we can talk about.
00:43:46My past has not been without heartbreak.
00:43:49I've been married before.
00:43:50Tracing my dream of a family too soon.
00:43:53But from that experience came lessons
00:43:55I now consider a blessing.
00:43:57I was surprised that he had been married before
00:43:59because he's 30.
00:44:01But, I mean, it doesn't bother me.
00:44:04I've been waiting a long time for this moment
00:44:06and now that it's finally here,
00:44:08I'm ready to love once again.
00:44:10And so, from this moment forward,
00:44:12we're no longer strangers.
00:44:13We're a team.
00:44:14I love it.
00:44:15And that's it, ladies and gents.
00:44:18Aw.
00:44:21Everything he said was really lovely.
00:44:24Like, how he wants to, like, take care of someone
00:44:27and how he's, like, kind of the masculine.
00:44:30It definitely seems that we hold similar values.
00:44:34Yeah, he just seems like
00:44:36the total package of what I would want
00:44:39in a guy.
00:44:45Since this is technically our first date,
00:44:47I should introduce myself.
00:44:48I'm Steph.
00:44:49As a real estate agent,
00:44:51I'm exceptionally goal-driven and ambitious
00:44:53when it comes to my career
00:44:54and I'm building my dream life.
00:44:57Now, I'm just hoping to find the dream man
00:44:59to compliment it.
00:45:00I'm hoping that person is you.
00:45:03I love my routines
00:45:05and they are exceptionally good.
00:45:06I don't think Tyson wants a career.
00:45:08You're obviously wanting someone to stay home,
00:45:10isn't it?
00:45:11Yes, that I can.
00:45:12Oh, she's in real estate.
00:45:13The gym.
00:45:14Yeah.
00:45:15I'll admit I can be stubborn.
00:45:17Once I've made a decision,
00:45:18it's not easy to change my mind,
00:45:19so hopefully you're good at gentle persuasion.
00:45:27Oof.
00:45:28She's a very driven individual.
00:45:31She's given me those boss bitch vibes.
00:45:33On the outside,
00:45:34I might seem confident and bulletproof.
00:45:36I take the lead when things need organising.
00:45:38She did give across masculine energy.
00:45:42And I don't need any more masculine energy.
00:45:46I've often wondered who my dream man might be.
00:45:49For me, he's ambitious,
00:45:50but also someone who finds joy
00:45:52in standing beside a woman.
00:45:53She needs to bring femininity.
00:45:54The masculine energy is already up here.
00:45:56I don't need any more.
00:46:00But the truth is,
00:46:01beneath all of that,
00:46:02I'm also a sensitive soul
00:46:03and at times a bit of a delicate flower.
00:46:07I built some walls to protect myself
00:46:08and truthfully,
00:46:09I've never been in an adult relationship.
00:46:12A lot of that comes from my past
00:46:14when my parents divorced when I was younger.
00:46:16From then on,
00:46:17I always found it hard to fully trust
00:46:19that love could last.
00:46:22I mean, how can you be 32
00:46:24and never be in a relationship?
00:46:25That's crazy.
00:46:28So here's to us.
00:46:30Trusting that the best stories
00:46:31start with a little courage,
00:46:33a lot of hope,
00:46:34and maybe just a dash of crazy.
00:46:41Beautiful.
00:46:42Love it.
00:46:43Brilliant.
00:46:43Thank you very much.
00:46:44Beautiful.
00:46:52She's a beautiful girl,
00:46:53but I think Steph is single for a reason.
00:46:57Do you take Stephanie to be your wife?
00:47:00I do.
00:47:01Now, Stephanie,
00:47:02do you take Tyson to be your husband?
00:47:04I do.
00:47:06So, ladies and gentlemen,
00:47:07I now declare Stephanie and Tyson
00:47:09to be husband and wife.
00:47:11Woo-hoo!
00:47:13Thank you, Sarah.
00:47:17Thank you, Sarah.
00:47:17Yeah.
00:47:18He is lovely.
00:47:21I'm, like, genuinely surprised
00:47:22that literally everything
00:47:25I said I wanted in a man
00:47:27seems to be packaged up
00:47:29in a nice little bow.
00:47:33Yeah, look,
00:47:34I just don't want her
00:47:35bringing any dominant masculinity
00:47:38into this relationship.
00:47:39I want submissive vibes,
00:47:41you know,
00:47:41someone that is submissive
00:47:42and not masculine.
00:47:44Otherwise, we can have problems.
00:47:54You've got to tell me
00:47:55if I've got lips
00:47:55on my teeth.
00:47:57Big smiles.
00:47:58At 1300 hours,
00:48:00military man Tyson
00:48:01is reporting
00:48:02to photoshoot duty
00:48:04and conducting
00:48:06some intelligence gathering
00:48:07on his new bride,
00:48:08Stephanie.
00:48:10How have you never
00:48:12had a boyfriend?
00:48:14What's going on there?
00:48:16Big walls, man.
00:48:17Bigger than these ones.
00:48:19It's very alarming
00:48:20that she's 32
00:48:21and I've been in a relationship.
00:48:23The whole thing is, Steph,
00:48:24like, wife's short.
00:48:25Like, I get to a certain age,
00:48:27you say,
00:48:27like, I'm getting older.
00:48:29Time's ticking here,
00:48:30and I'm going to be single
00:48:31the rest of my life.
00:48:32That's why I came on the show.
00:48:34Like, in 10 years,
00:48:35I'm 40.
00:48:37You know what I mean?
00:48:38I'll be 42.
00:48:39Eww.
00:48:41Like, it's crazy in my eyes.
00:48:43Perfect.
00:48:44I mean, I'm single at the age of 30,
00:48:45but I've been married before.
00:48:46I've had a lot of adult relationships.
00:48:48The fact she hasn't had one,
00:48:50like, to me,
00:48:50that's mind-blowing.
00:48:52How old were you
00:48:53when you first got married?
00:48:54I got married at 6...
00:48:5623, I think it was,
00:48:57at the time.
00:48:58That was so young.
00:48:59It was f***ing hard.
00:49:00How long were you together for
00:49:01before you got married?
00:49:02Um, in person,
00:49:04like, 30 days.
00:49:05But we'd known each other
00:49:06for two years.
00:49:07Maybe who I am now.
00:49:09Like, yeah, no regrets.
00:49:11Oh, my God, that's insane.
00:49:13So, I think there are
00:49:14some red flags there.
00:49:16Quite a few.
00:49:16And how do you feel
00:49:17about a kiss shot, guys?
00:49:20One.
00:49:21One?
00:49:22I came into this experiment
00:49:23wanting someone, you know,
00:49:24cute and sweet.
00:49:26Are you ready?
00:49:26I will allow one.
00:49:28I still think the boss
00:49:29bitch energy is still there.
00:49:31Kiss shot, let's do it.
00:49:32Yeah, they get one chance, mate.
00:49:35There we go.
00:49:37Tyson, look a little awkward, mate.
00:49:39Kind of relax a bit,
00:49:40if you can.
00:49:41She came across very frigid.
00:49:43Um, you know, like...
00:49:46..because she's never been
00:49:47in a relationship, right?
00:49:49And, um,
00:49:50she needs to definitely change that.
00:49:54Big smile, Steph.
00:49:56The vibe between us,
00:49:58I think, was good.
00:49:59Like, just sort of
00:50:00getting to know each other,
00:50:02understand a little bit more
00:50:03about each other.
00:50:05Do you want kids?
00:50:06Yeah.
00:50:06F***ing no.
00:50:07Yeah.
00:50:09When?
00:50:09How many?
00:50:10Probably five would be good.
00:50:12What?
00:50:12Five would be nice.
00:50:14Five?
00:50:14Well, if you can afford it,
00:50:15one, five.
00:50:16Yeah.
00:50:17I think it'd be good
00:50:18to start a big family.
00:50:21Five kids is a lot.
00:50:23Five, fricking.
00:50:24It's a good number.
00:50:25Hmm.
00:50:26He definitely gives me, like,
00:50:28typical, like,
00:50:30man, working man,
00:50:32mum stay at home,
00:50:33kind of vibes.
00:50:34And again,
00:50:35just a cheeky little kiss.
00:50:37Kiss and lips.
00:50:37He's just giving off
00:50:38that kind of energy.
00:50:39Like, very, like,
00:50:40masculine,
00:50:41like,
00:50:43um,
00:50:43what's the word?
00:50:46Um,
00:50:50overbearing energy.
00:50:51Covered in lippy.
00:50:54Covered in red.
00:51:04Cheers, everyone.
00:51:05Cheers, everyone.
00:51:06Cheers, David.
00:51:07Cheers, David.
00:51:07Thanks.
00:51:08Cheers, big man.
00:51:09Cheers, everybody.
00:51:10Cheers.
00:51:11Cheers, Luke.
00:51:12Cheers.
00:51:12Cheers, Calma.
00:51:13How beautiful is this view?
00:51:15That's stunning.
00:51:15It's stunning, isn't it?
00:51:18Ladies and gentlemen,
00:51:19I'd like to welcome
00:51:20the new bride and groom,
00:51:22Juliet and Joel.
00:51:24Yeah!
00:51:26Thanks, Charlie.
00:51:29I'm feeling a lot better.
00:51:31Obviously,
00:51:31he started off
00:51:31with a bit of nerves.
00:51:32Oh, that's good.
00:51:34Now, I'm just settled.
00:51:36I feel settled.
00:51:39Oh, yeah!
00:51:44The lips were luscious.
00:51:46He definitely has
00:51:47good kiss vibes.
00:51:50You want a drink?
00:51:50Mm-hmm.
00:51:51I'll get you
00:51:51anything you want, baby.
00:51:52I'll be a baby.
00:51:53You want a beer?
00:51:53I want a beer.
00:51:54And the banter
00:51:55between us is good,
00:51:56so I'm excited to see
00:51:57what this journey
00:51:58is going to be.
00:52:03I'm done.
00:52:04Chicken?
00:52:04You all right with chicken?
00:52:05Mm-hmm.
00:52:06Do you want a bit of this
00:52:07from Tribey?
00:52:08I think it's Atlanta.
00:52:09Give yourself a bit of this.
00:52:11Me?
00:52:11He's a mummy's boy.
00:52:14You need to eat something.
00:52:16He's a mummy's boy.
00:52:19Ew.
00:52:20Honestly, I can't find
00:52:21any saving grace for him yet.
00:52:23He needs to prove himself.
00:52:25I want to know, like,
00:52:26when was his last relationship
00:52:27in hell?
00:52:28What made him want to
00:52:29commit to this experiment?
00:52:29Do it.
00:52:30Say something.
00:52:31Say it.
00:52:31No, I'm pretty open.
00:52:32Hey, Joel.
00:52:36What made you want
00:52:37to be a part of this experiment?
00:52:39I've been ready to fall in love
00:52:40for the last couple of years.
00:52:42I've been single for five years,
00:52:44and now is...
00:52:45the time is right now.
00:52:47Joel, what do you do?
00:52:48What do you do for me?
00:52:49Oh, sorry.
00:52:49Modelling.
00:52:50For what?
00:52:50Kmart or Big W?
00:52:55I do editorials.
00:52:57I do commercial,
00:52:59lifestyle,
00:53:00all different types.
00:53:03Is Juliet the type
00:53:05that you would desire?
00:53:06What'd you ask for?
00:53:07Be specific.
00:53:12I was, like, on the stand,
00:53:16and they were, like,
00:53:17cross-examining me.
00:53:18Like, it was mental.
00:53:19I said exotic eyes.
00:53:21I said olive skin or darker,
00:53:23and I don't see no plastic
00:53:25in that face.
00:53:28Yeah, it's just beautiful.
00:53:30Yeah.
00:53:32So, I'm very happy.
00:53:34Excuse me?
00:53:36Chill the f*** out, Joel.
00:53:38You know an oil painting.
00:53:39As Brooke would say,
00:53:41you know f***ing panty dropper.
00:53:43Chill yourself out.
00:53:45Wait, wait, wait.
00:53:46What's wrong with plastic in the face?
00:53:48Because I have lip injections.
00:53:49What's wrong with that?
00:53:50I get Botox, too, actually.
00:53:52We actually...
00:53:52We're at Gold Coast.
00:53:53We get injections.
00:53:54What's wrong with that?
00:53:54Personal preference.
00:53:55I'm just not into that.
00:53:56I think women should decide, like,
00:53:57what they do with their own bodies,
00:53:58to be honest.
00:53:59Absolutely.
00:54:02Who does she think she is?
00:54:04Big beard.
00:54:05She's f***ing tonight.
00:54:06What's going on?
00:54:07What's going on here?
00:54:10I can't believe her behaviour.
00:54:12Like, I don't understand
00:54:13why it is that Jir
00:54:16feels it necessary
00:54:17to come at a groom
00:54:18that you've never even spoken to before.
00:54:20He's definitely rubbing me the wrong way.
00:54:22I really do.
00:54:23Mmm.
00:54:23You should just be happy
00:54:24anyone talking to him, right?
00:54:26It's just plain rude.
00:54:28It's like she wants
00:54:29to have more eyes on her.
00:54:31This is why you made up
00:54:33that fabricated story
00:54:34about my husband.
00:54:35More eyes on you.
00:54:36She pisses me off, man.
00:54:38She's as fake as a f***ing tits
00:54:39in a tea.
00:54:43Coming up...
00:54:43Do you want to be househusband?
00:54:46Hell no.
00:54:48You may as well ask me
00:54:49if I want to wear a skirt
00:54:49around the house.
00:54:51And the mother
00:54:53of all wedding speeches.
00:54:55And he still likes to lie
00:54:57on my lap
00:54:57and have me scratch his back.
00:55:00Who says s*** like that?
00:55:02Like, especially
00:55:02at a wedding suite.
00:55:11at Juliette and Joel's wedding,
00:55:15Bec is still unimpressed
00:55:16by Gia's need
00:55:17to be the centre of attention.
00:55:20Am I funny?
00:55:21I'm pretty funny.
00:55:22Do you not agree with me
00:55:24that the way she came
00:55:25at that f***ing wedding
00:55:27was unacceptable?
00:55:28Yeah.
00:55:29Why would you do that?
00:55:30Yeah, yeah.
00:55:31Why are you doing that?
00:55:31Adding fuel.
00:55:32Yeah.
00:55:33But why?
00:55:34Yeah.
00:55:34There is definitely
00:55:36tensions between Gia and Bec.
00:55:38They literally didn't look
00:55:39at each other
00:55:39for the most part today.
00:55:40And this is not the first time
00:55:42that Gia's been
00:55:42at the epicentre
00:55:43of a lot of things
00:55:45that have been happening,
00:55:46friction between the couples.
00:55:47Her and Brooke
00:55:48bringing up
00:55:49that fabricated story
00:55:50about him.
00:55:51I'm furious.
00:55:52How dare you?
00:55:53How dare you?
00:55:54What, you saw me happy
00:55:55and you wanted to bring
00:55:56something out of your arsehole
00:55:57to try and ruin
00:55:59what we've got?
00:56:00I'm pissed off.
00:56:02I'm pissed off.
00:56:04My relationship
00:56:05was in jeopardy
00:56:06because of her.
00:56:07She took something
00:56:08that was so incredible
00:56:10between Danny and I
00:56:12and tried to drive
00:56:13a wedge into it.
00:56:14I'm not happy about it.
00:56:16Is this something
00:56:17that you could probably
00:56:18bounce back from
00:56:19with Gia?
00:56:21With a couple
00:56:21of difficult combos?
00:56:22I don't know
00:56:23if I can do that to him.
00:56:25Yeah, well, yeah,
00:56:26that's right.
00:56:27Yeah, because you're picking
00:56:27the, that's right,
00:56:29you've got to pick a side
00:56:29like in there.
00:56:30No, like it would burn you.
00:56:33We have to look
00:56:33at credibility
00:56:35and I'm sorry.
00:56:37You've made me look stupid.
00:56:39You've diminished
00:56:40our relationship.
00:56:41Yeah.
00:56:41You've now put something
00:56:43out there about him
00:56:44that isn't true.
00:56:46So how can,
00:56:47how can I ever
00:56:48trust you or be your friend?
00:56:49I've got things
00:56:50to say to her
00:56:51but I want to make sure
00:56:52that I'm in a forum
00:56:53where I can say them to her.
00:56:55I have decorum.
00:56:57I'm not going to be like Gia.
00:56:58I'm not going to
00:57:00create dramas
00:57:01at someone's wedding.
00:57:02If someone did that to me
00:57:02I would be devastated.
00:57:03I'm not going to do that
00:57:04to them.
00:57:05I'm not doing it.
00:57:07One thing I've always
00:57:07believed in
00:57:08is truth always prevails.
00:57:10Yes.
00:57:10So I don't really care.
00:57:11We'll have to see.
00:57:12But it's on my Donkey Kong
00:57:13at the next dinner party
00:57:14that's for sure.
00:57:32At her wedding reception
00:57:34Stephanie is struggling
00:57:35with the reality
00:57:36of marrying a stranger.
00:57:42I'm just shitting myself.
00:57:44Why?
00:57:46I'm way out of my depth.
00:57:48I'm freaking
00:57:49out right now.
00:57:52I'm very stressed.
00:57:53I feel like
00:57:54my body is like
00:57:55shutting down on me.
00:57:57It's like
00:57:57alone out of the water.
00:57:59I haven't been on a date
00:58:00in so long
00:58:01and now all of a sudden
00:58:02I'm married.
00:58:04You'll be fine.
00:58:08No, you don't.
00:58:12I have just married
00:58:14this person.
00:58:14I need to live
00:58:16with this person.
00:58:18I have never lived
00:58:19with a person before.
00:58:21Yeah, like I'm freaking
00:58:22out.
00:58:23Yeah.
00:58:24I'm just such a close book.
00:58:26I know.
00:58:27But that's what got you here.
00:58:29So, yeah.
00:58:31Try to be an open book.
00:58:33Yeah.
00:58:36Adding to Stephanie's
00:58:37discomfort
00:58:38are Tyson's plans
00:58:40for a large family.
00:58:43Apparently we're
00:58:44having five children.
00:58:47I don't know
00:58:48who you're having
00:58:48those five kids with.
00:58:50What are two very
00:58:51driven people
00:58:51going to do
00:58:52with their careers
00:58:52whilst you try
00:58:53and have babies?
00:58:55Get it made.
00:59:01Like, I don't think
00:59:02he has thought
00:59:03about what
00:59:04having five kids
00:59:05would mean
00:59:05for his wife.
00:59:08Like,
00:59:08he hasn't got
00:59:09to push them out.
00:59:21He hasn't got to put his
00:59:23whole life on hold
00:59:24to bear these children.
00:59:27Like,
00:59:27you just got to feed it.
00:59:29You know,
00:59:29take it to the toilet.
00:59:36And that's it.
00:59:38I think you'll be a good dad.
00:59:40Actually,
00:59:40you'll be a great dad.
00:59:42You will be a great dad.
00:59:45Like,
00:59:46it was a lot.
00:59:48I honestly reckon
00:59:49it would be easy
00:59:49to ice cream.
00:59:50Do you want to be
00:59:51househusband?
00:59:53Hell no.
00:59:56Hell no.
00:59:58A househusband?
01:00:04You may as well ask me
01:00:05if I want to wear
01:00:05a skirt around the house.
01:00:22Yeah,
01:00:39some of the causes
01:00:40for concern
01:00:41were discussed
01:00:42just before.
01:00:43So,
01:00:44just the masculinity
01:00:45that she brings
01:00:46to the relationship.
01:00:47Asking me if I wanted
01:00:48to be a househusband,
01:00:49which shows to me
01:00:50that she wants to play
01:00:51the dominant role
01:00:52in this relationship.
01:00:53It was a little bit
01:00:54confronting,
01:00:55but it could be
01:00:56a cause for concern.
01:00:59He's hoping
01:01:00a more intimate
01:01:00conversation
01:01:01can help him
01:01:02understand her views.
01:01:05How are you feeling?
01:01:06Yeah,
01:01:07look,
01:01:08you said before,
01:01:09and you're probably joking,
01:01:10but you said before,
01:01:11you know,
01:01:12would I consider
01:01:13being a stay-at-home
01:01:14husband?
01:01:15Yeah.
01:01:16That would never
01:01:17happen ever.
01:01:18Yeah.
01:01:19Ever.
01:01:19Ever, ever, ever, ever.
01:01:21And then you said,
01:01:22well, you may as well
01:01:23put on a skirt.
01:01:26Well, I'm just saying,
01:01:27that would be
01:01:27your next question
01:01:28because that's what it'd
01:01:29feel like.
01:01:31If I was to be a stay-at-home dad,
01:01:34I feel like
01:01:35that's a very feminine role.
01:01:37I'm the man of the relationship,
01:01:38I'm the provider,
01:01:39the protector,
01:01:41and, of course,
01:01:41you're very driven,
01:01:42and, you know,
01:01:43you're doing very well
01:01:44for yourself,
01:01:44but, you know,
01:01:46I don't want,
01:01:47I don't want someone
01:01:48that's going to bring
01:01:49masculine energy
01:01:50to a relationship.
01:01:52Because if you're
01:01:52bringing masculine energy
01:01:53and I'm bringing
01:01:54masculine energy,
01:01:55it's like two alpha males
01:01:55sort of colliding.
01:01:57It's going to create a storm.
01:01:59There are a couple
01:01:59of alarm bells going off.
01:02:01I am very much central
01:02:04in my opinions
01:02:05with regards to
01:02:06wokeism,
01:02:08MAGA,
01:02:09you know,
01:02:10femininity.
01:02:11I'm not some
01:02:12ultra-feminist
01:02:13woman or anything like that,
01:02:15but I do absolutely
01:02:16believe in equality.
01:02:17Are you expecting
01:02:18your wife's career
01:02:19to take a backseat to yours?
01:02:22If there's children involved,
01:02:23yes, definitely.
01:02:25Yeah.
01:02:25Yeah.
01:02:26Mm-hmm.
01:02:27Mm-hmm.
01:02:27OK.
01:02:28I'm quite surprised
01:02:30that someone like him
01:02:32has these views.
01:02:34It's giving a manosphere.
01:02:35If you were to get
01:02:36into a relationship,
01:02:37like, for instance,
01:02:37with this marriage,
01:02:38do you think that
01:02:39you would play, like,
01:02:41that submissive role
01:02:43or do you think
01:02:44you'd have that more
01:02:45dominant sort of role
01:02:47in the relationship?
01:02:48Because for me,
01:02:49I'm bringing masculine energy
01:02:51to this relationship.
01:02:52Yeah.
01:02:52I'm bringing
01:02:52the dominant side of it,
01:02:54you know,
01:02:55and I feel like, for me,
01:02:56I want a woman that's,
01:02:58you know, feminine,
01:02:58which, obviously, you are,
01:03:00but somewhat submissive.
01:03:03No, no, no.
01:03:04Not in this day and age.
01:03:06Not when there's
01:03:07too many women out there
01:03:08chasing their own goals
01:03:09because we don't live
01:03:10in the bloody 1960s anymore.
01:03:14does my somewhat masculinity
01:03:17make you feel
01:03:21emasculated?
01:03:23I wouldn't say emasculated, no.
01:03:26Is that an ego thing?
01:03:30Are you saying,
01:03:31no, I'm not emasculated?
01:03:33No.
01:03:34I don't think so.
01:03:36He said no,
01:03:37which is fine.
01:03:37That was his answer.
01:03:39But I don't believe him.
01:03:41Do you find me attractive?
01:03:44I think you're attractive,
01:03:45girl, yeah.
01:03:45Yeah.
01:03:46I do.
01:03:46Do you?
01:03:47Yeah, of course.
01:03:49I think you're attractive,
01:03:49yeah.
01:03:51Does the masculine energy
01:03:52make me unattractive to you?
01:03:57A little bit.
01:03:58A little bit.
01:04:00How much?
01:04:01Like, 10%?
01:04:02Just take me from, like,
01:04:04a 10 to a 9.
01:04:07I'll say this.
01:04:08I'll just say,
01:04:09it's just,
01:04:09just to me,
01:04:11it's just like,
01:04:13I think there's nothing better
01:04:15than, like,
01:04:15a woman that's,
01:04:17you know,
01:04:18submissive.
01:04:18Willing to take a backseat
01:04:19to your life?
01:04:20Well, kind of.
01:04:21Kind of, yeah.
01:04:22It sounds bad
01:04:22when you put it like that.
01:04:24But it's more like just...
01:04:25Because that's what it is, really.
01:04:26Well, probably to an extent.
01:04:28Yeah,
01:04:29it's definitely freaking me out.
01:04:30Like, I'm trying to keep my cool.
01:04:32I'm trying to keep open-minded.
01:04:34Remind myself of why I'm here.
01:04:36But it's,
01:04:37it's a challenge.
01:04:46Oh, here we go.
01:04:48Thank you, everybody.
01:04:49Now we are starting
01:04:50the wedding speeches,
01:04:52so we'd love to start with Joel.
01:04:54Hey!
01:04:56Hey!
01:04:57Come on.
01:04:58Hey!
01:05:01I'm looking forward to this.
01:05:04Good evening, everyone,
01:05:05and thank you for coming.
01:05:09One thing about me
01:05:10is that I have an insatiable appetite,
01:05:12not just for food,
01:05:13but for life,
01:05:14for love,
01:05:15and, of course,
01:05:16for my life, yeah.
01:05:25If you haven't already picked up on it,
01:05:27I'm quite an eccentric,
01:05:29weird, wacky, crazy,
01:05:30over-the-top kind of dude,
01:05:32which means I'm smart enough
01:05:33to forewarn you about my quirks
01:05:35and odd behaviours
01:05:36you're about to experience.
01:05:37I hope you're excited to move in with me
01:05:39because I'm a real catch.
01:05:41Think more along the lines of anchovy
01:05:42than bluefin tuna.
01:05:49I'm only joking.
01:05:50I'm talking about my old self,
01:05:52which was smelly and undesirable.
01:05:58Seriously?
01:05:59You've actually scored yourself
01:06:00a hygiene-obsessed OCD neat freak.
01:06:03If you don't place the TV remotes
01:06:05in perfect alignment,
01:06:06I will notice it.
01:06:11Oh, God.
01:06:12If you don't hang the hand towels
01:06:13with the labels facing outwards,
01:06:15perfectly level,
01:06:16horizontal and centred,
01:06:18I will notice it.
01:06:22So, yeah,
01:06:23living with me is fun,
01:06:24unless it's spring.
01:06:25My hay fever is so ferocious,
01:06:27you can hear me sneezing
01:06:28from outer space.
01:06:30And when I'm not sneezing,
01:06:31I'm snorting,
01:06:32where every three seconds
01:06:33I have an urge
01:06:34to clear sewage from my throat.
01:06:36to clear sewage from my throat.
01:06:44Why would you say that, brother?
01:06:46Ew.
01:06:46Hola, cidio.
01:06:48Ooh.
01:06:50So, yeah,
01:06:51apart from that,
01:06:52I sleep like a silent angel,
01:06:53unless I can't sleep,
01:06:55and then I'm twisting
01:06:55and turning faster
01:06:56than a professional bull rider
01:06:57holding on for dear life.
01:06:59That will, of course,
01:07:00be the perfect moment
01:07:01for you to sing me a lullaby
01:07:02at 2 a.m.
01:07:07through highs and lows,
01:07:09my loyalty will remain
01:07:10as strong as my B.O.
01:07:11after a Barry's class.
01:07:23I think he missed the mark.
01:07:27Um,
01:07:30yeah,
01:07:31I'm definitely
01:07:31a bit worried.
01:07:33His speech
01:07:34was extremely theatrical.
01:07:37I could see the faces
01:07:38of my mom,
01:07:39my dad,
01:07:39my bridesmaids,
01:07:40my friends.
01:07:41Like,
01:07:42everyone was a bit like,
01:07:43what the actual
01:07:45don't think he even mentioned love
01:07:47in any of his speeches.
01:07:49Like,
01:07:50just need to have a feeling
01:07:52that this is gonna be
01:07:54real for him
01:07:57because I,
01:07:58I weren't real.
01:08:02Now,
01:08:03we will welcome
01:08:04Sharon,
01:08:05mother of the groom.
01:08:06Yay!
01:08:07Woo!
01:08:11Thank you,
01:08:12everyone.
01:08:14From the very beginning,
01:08:15Joel was dancing
01:08:16to the beat
01:08:17of his own drum.
01:08:19He was a baby
01:08:20that did not sleep
01:08:21for 18 months
01:08:22of his life.
01:08:24He would also
01:08:25only feed
01:08:26when he wanted to
01:08:27and refused milk
01:08:28from any bottle.
01:08:30He would rather
01:08:31starve himself,
01:08:32which turned
01:08:33into the opposite problem
01:08:35as he got older,
01:08:37and he turned
01:08:38into a gluttonous pig.
01:08:54From the very beginning,
01:08:56Joel was dancing
01:08:57to the beat
01:08:57of his own drum.
01:08:58He would rather
01:08:59starve himself,
01:09:00which turned
01:09:01into the opposite problem
01:09:02as he got older,
01:09:03and he turned
01:09:05into a gluttonous pig.
01:09:13Seeing everyone's face
01:09:14kind of drop
01:09:14during both of those speeches
01:09:16was extremely
01:09:18not a good feeling
01:09:19to feel.
01:09:21I know it's very mean
01:09:23of a mother
01:09:24mother to say
01:09:24that to her son,
01:09:26but nothing
01:09:27was getting through,
01:09:28and to be honest,
01:09:29those words
01:09:29didn't either,
01:09:31until Joel was ready
01:09:32to lose 20 kilos
01:09:33and go from Uber driver
01:09:36to model
01:09:37to maths.
01:09:38Here we are today.
01:09:42I don't know.
01:09:45I just think there
01:09:46were some things
01:09:47where it was a bit
01:09:49fishy.
01:09:51Maybe he's in it
01:09:52for the wrong reasons.
01:09:55As a psychologist,
01:09:57I needed a whole
01:09:58other degree
01:09:58to try and understand
01:10:00my child.
01:10:01I knew that I had
01:10:02a special soul
01:10:03that I had to nurture
01:10:04and love so very tenderly.
01:10:06He was always
01:10:07very close to me
01:10:08and to his childhood
01:10:10teddy,
01:10:10and Joel would choose
01:10:11to stay home
01:10:12to lie on the couch
01:10:13with his games,
01:10:14food,
01:10:15and teddy.
01:10:16And not much
01:10:17has changed,
01:10:17really, today.
01:10:18He still has his teddy,
01:10:21and he still likes
01:10:22to lie on my lap
01:10:24and have me scratch his back.
01:10:29Oh, no.
01:10:31No.
01:10:31That's weird.
01:10:32That would give me
01:10:33the eggs straight away.
01:10:35That's a bit weird.
01:10:36That's a bit weird.
01:10:37Like, I'm close
01:10:38with my ma,
01:10:39but I'll have a cup of tea
01:10:41and it's gone with her,
01:10:42but me.
01:10:43I'm not going to
01:10:44have a scratch
01:10:45in my back.
01:10:45That's a bit,
01:10:46that's a bit too much.
01:10:57But it's not all bad.
01:10:59Joel is the most
01:11:00lovable,
01:11:01adorable,
01:11:02quirky,
01:11:03handsome,
01:11:04affectionate,
01:11:04and loving soul
01:11:05that I've ever known.
01:11:07And as long as you're happy
01:11:08with having a 30-year-old
01:11:10teddy bear in the bed,
01:11:12then I think
01:11:13you'll be all right.
01:11:14I hope
01:11:16you're ready, Juliet.
01:11:18Congratulations.
01:11:25Thanks for a beautiful speech.
01:11:36I'm pissed off.
01:11:40Like, this isn't
01:11:41a vulnerable, like,
01:11:42situation I've put myself in
01:11:44for something I thought
01:11:44was going to be real.
01:11:46Who says shit like that?
01:11:48Like, especially
01:11:48at a wedding speech
01:11:49with someone
01:11:50who has no idea
01:11:50who the f*** this guy is.
01:11:52I'm here
01:11:53to find the love
01:11:55of my life
01:11:56and I kind of
01:11:57just feel like
01:11:58this whole thing
01:11:59has been, like,
01:12:01a joke
01:12:01in a theatrical performance.
01:12:03I'm just a joke maker.
01:12:05You know?
01:12:06Yeah.
01:12:07Obviously that's a joke.
01:12:08Like, clearly
01:12:09that's not serious.
01:12:10I'm just f***ing joking.
01:12:32I'm a farmer
01:12:32and a gym owner.
01:12:34I'm a fitness trainer
01:12:35by trade,
01:12:36but I am happiest
01:12:37outside.
01:12:39It's one of the most
01:12:40incredible matches
01:12:42the experiment's
01:12:43ever seen.
01:12:44I feel like
01:12:45I put my career first
01:12:46but now I want
01:12:47to focus on this.
01:12:48I have thrown myself
01:12:49into my career
01:12:50but now I'm ready
01:12:51to put love first.
01:12:52They're my vows.
01:12:53I know, right?
01:12:54I know.
01:12:54The final couple
01:12:56to enter
01:12:56this year's experiment.
01:12:58Stop!
01:13:00The original couple
01:13:01celebrate
01:13:02their first milestone.
01:13:03There's no other way
01:13:04of explaining
01:13:05our relationship
01:13:05but for us
01:13:06to be just extra.
01:13:08And Julia drops
01:13:10an unexpected bombshell.
01:13:12That burning desire
01:13:13doesn't seem
01:13:14to be growing.
01:13:16Leaving Grayson
01:13:18in shock.
01:13:19It's hard.
01:13:20And then...
01:13:22My rig's
01:13:22a lot of maintenance.
01:13:23It's like a Ferrari.
01:13:25Stephanie and Tyson's
01:13:26honeymoon goes from bad...
01:13:28Is it the situation
01:13:30or is it me?
01:13:31I'll probably say
01:13:32it's you.
01:13:33...to worse.
01:13:34I don't want
01:13:34a slave for a wife.
01:13:36All I want
01:13:36is just a submissive wife.
01:13:38As Stephanie
01:13:39butts heads
01:13:39with her opinionated
01:13:41new husband.
01:13:42Sounds like a you problem
01:13:43not a me problem.
01:13:44Well, it's a you problem
01:13:45because you're missing out
01:13:46on all this.
01:13:47Anyway.
01:13:47Wow.
01:13:48My blood is boiling.
01:13:49I don't know
01:13:50who he thinks he is.
01:13:54I don't know who he is...
01:13:56He's so lazy.
