FunTranscript
00:00:00Previously, the bucks and hens kicked off our singles quest for love.
00:00:07I'm just excited to see her walking down the aisle and hopefully find true love.
00:00:13Then our first two couples married at first sight.
00:00:18Wow, I must have died and gone to heaven.
00:00:20And as Celine and Anthony's fairy tale began,
00:00:23I can see Anthony and I building a future, building a family together.
00:00:26This could be it.
00:00:27Our most demanding bride ever...
00:00:30Average just isn't for me.
00:00:31Saw Tamara...
00:00:32You go first, please.
00:00:33You're losing your room.
00:00:34My way has to be the right way.
00:00:36Turn into Brent's worst nightmare.
00:00:38I think tonight's going really well.
00:00:40And by well, I mean, my wife's a psychopath.
00:00:44But it wasn't long before her fiery side...
00:00:47She's very strong-willed and I like that.
00:00:49Warmed Brent's heart.
00:00:51Come on, my lovely wife.
00:00:52She's a beautiful girl and I am up for this challenge.
00:00:56Tonight...
00:00:57I'm a divorced woman.
00:00:59I don't want to fail again.
00:01:00A bride's second chance at love.
00:01:02I have so much love to give and I want to be loved.
00:01:06But could a painful confession...
00:01:08I'm sitting at the dinner table with this big thing hanging over me.
00:01:11Jeopardise it all.
00:01:12You have to tell them this huge thing.
00:01:15How do you think he's going to react?
00:01:18Plus...
00:01:19What makes you think this is going to be different?
00:01:21Well, you're meant to be the expert.
00:01:24The most sceptical groom...
00:01:26Maybe I just don't believe the experts are as good as what they say.
00:01:29The experiments ever seen.
00:01:31I'd love for them to prove me wrong.
00:01:33But I'll be surprised if I turn around and see my dream woman.
00:01:46In Sydney, Tamara is waking up a married woman.
00:01:50While her new husband Brent is waking up...
00:01:55To a new reality.
00:01:59My wife is a handful.
00:02:01Like she's very loud.
00:02:04She's the loudest human being on earth.
00:02:09Brent's got his work cut out for him.
00:02:12I don't know if I'm the easiest wife yet.
00:02:15But that's fine.
00:02:16He's not easy either.
00:02:17I think he'll be a pain in the arse.
00:02:20Morning, cupcake.
00:02:21Morning.
00:02:24Oh, what are we working with?
00:02:25It's disgusting.
00:02:28At the wedding, we did have that argument over the knife being upside down.
00:02:33When I cut the cake, because he passed it to me that way.
00:02:36Like I tried to ask him to just say sorry yesterday.
00:02:38Because even if he didn't mean it, it would make me feel better.
00:02:40But he said...
00:02:42Oh no.
00:02:44No, no.
00:02:45I am not going to apologise for that.
00:02:47I still think the knife was completely the right way.
00:02:50Regardless, I'm not going to be forced to say sorry over something like that.
00:02:54Cheers.
00:02:54We're married.
00:02:5632nd, yeah.
00:02:57I think me and Tamara are at a level where it's slightly friendly.
00:03:04I don't know where we're going today.
00:03:05I can't wait.
00:03:07You can't wait to just be with me for the rest of eternity?
00:03:11Obviously.
00:03:13Clearly.
00:03:14I woke up and I was like, guys, I can't wait to see her again.
00:03:20Don't be sarcastic.
00:03:23I was being serious.
00:03:24Okay.
00:03:25I think there's a bit of sexual chemistry.
00:03:28I think once we get past the fighting, it's going to turn into severe sexual chemistry.
00:03:32That's my prediction.
00:03:40And while Tamara develops a taste for married life,
00:03:44Celine's lost her appetite.
00:03:46Are you going to feed me?
00:03:48Yeah.
00:03:49Do you not want to be fed?
00:03:52No.
00:03:53After a fairytale wedding,
00:03:55single mum Celine is coming to terms with the reality of marrying a stranger.
00:04:00Well, here you go.
00:04:04You're giving me the big pieces.
00:04:07To be honest, when I woke up this morning, I thought I was by myself.
00:04:10So seeing movement on the other side and a couple of noises,
00:04:14I was like, what is going on?
00:04:15Who is that?
00:04:15And then I thought, oh my God, I married him.
00:04:18Want to do the airplane?
00:04:20No.
00:04:22You don't want that?
00:04:23I'm not a baby.
00:04:24I can do it myself.
00:04:26To be honest, I don't know what to do.
00:04:28You know, I haven't been dating for a long time.
00:04:30I've been single for three years.
00:04:31I'm not used to being fed.
00:04:33I've said I've always wanted that old school gentleman.
00:04:35That hasn't changed.
00:04:36But now I'm receiving that.
00:04:39I am starting to feel the intensity for sure.
00:04:41Like it is full on.
00:04:43I don't think Celine's used to all the attention.
00:04:45I feel there's a little bit of trepidation there, a little bit.
00:04:50The only way I can sort of reassure and make her feel relaxed is I can only be me.
00:04:53I can't be anybody else.
00:04:55Anthony is still going to be Anthony.
00:04:59Following months of intense psychological testing and data analysis,
00:05:04our experts have been busy pairing this year's participants.
00:05:08Our experts have been busy pairing this year's participants.
00:05:12And now the moment has come where they will unveil the next two couples to enter the experiment.
00:05:20Well, I'd love to talk about Dominika and Jack.
00:05:23What I love about these guys is that they are very kind and authentic and warm.
00:05:29Dominika, of course, has taken a really brave step.
00:05:33She was married for a very short period of time.
00:05:36She's faced a lot of judgment and a lot of criticism.
00:05:38So there's a vulnerability there.
00:05:40And I think for Jack, he's very much a person who's going to be able to
00:05:46be there for her through thick and thin.
00:05:49He's not running away.
00:05:50And he is loyal as the day is long.
00:05:52I've got to say, I'm going to call it.
00:05:54This would be my favourite couple this season.
00:05:57You know, they've got so much in common.
00:05:59And I love the energy.
00:06:03Mum, OK, can you get dad in shot?
00:06:05Can you see me?
00:06:06I can't see you.
00:06:09Hi, I'm Dominika.
00:06:10I'm 28.
00:06:11I'm from Sydney and I'm a makeup artist.
00:06:14Can you close the door though, dad, for me?
00:06:15That'd be great.
00:06:16Milo's going to come in.
00:06:17Milo's going to get jealous.
00:06:19Milo's going to come in too.
00:06:21Close that door.
00:06:21She doesn't want to see the windex.
00:06:23What windex?
00:06:26My friends would probably describe me as a Princess Bogan,
00:06:31which I love because it is so me.
00:06:34I have to tell you guys something.
00:06:36Are you pregnant?
00:06:38Are you pregnant?
00:06:39I'm marrying a stranger.
00:06:43I'm married at 25.
00:06:45Oh, my God.
00:06:47Better look after my little girl.
00:06:49Better look after our little girl.
00:06:50OK.
00:06:52Tell me about your previous relationship.
00:06:58I've had a lot of time to reflect on my past relationship.
00:07:05For two of the four years, we moved in together straight away,
00:07:09like within three months of dating.
00:07:12I thought that he was the love of my life.
00:07:15Had the big, beautiful wedding, which I still love to this day.
00:07:19And then two months later, everything just fell apart.
00:07:27It must have taken incredible strength to walk away.
00:07:31It was, and I still think to this day, it'll be the hardest thing I'll ever have to do.
00:07:35Like, it was the toughest thing to have to tell him,
00:07:40to have to tell my parents, to have to tell his parents.
00:07:43Coming back to my Italian heritage, I've seen a lot of family members
00:07:48be in relationships where they're not happy,
00:07:50and it's open that they're not happy, but they're together,
00:07:51because getting a divorce in an Italian family is like a no-go zone.
00:07:56I lost girlfriends that I've had for 15 years,
00:07:59because they just couldn't understand why I'd gone through with this wedding.
00:08:07Yes, I should have said something before we had the wedding,
00:08:10but I didn't, because I had a fear that everyone was going to be disappointed in me.
00:08:16I've heard it all, like, I'm a shitty person, I'm like,
00:08:21I'm never going to, you know, find someone now that they know.
00:08:24You know, find someone now that they know that I've done this.
00:08:28I definitely had that thought.
00:08:30I'm a divorced woman.
00:08:32Who's going to want me?
00:08:40But as time progressed and I healed myself,
00:08:45I actually realised I still believe in marriage,
00:08:50and it's still what I want.
00:08:52To emulate what my parents have.
00:08:54They've been together through thick and thin.
00:08:57The experts have gotten to know me,
00:09:00and they've gotten to know my future husband,
00:09:03and apparently we're a great match.
00:09:09Dad, do you want some nice Italian boy for you?
00:09:11Yeah.
00:09:11Do you think he's going to be Italian?
00:09:13It's crazy that he's out there.
00:09:16I just keep thinking of, like, what he could be like.
00:09:19I hope he's got a dog.
00:09:20I hope he likes dogs.
00:09:24Go, buddy.
00:09:25I'm a huge dog person.
00:09:28That is a bit of a deal breaker.
00:09:30Hey, my name is Jack.
00:09:31I grew up in a huge Italian family.
00:09:34It was great growing up with that heritage.
00:09:36It was a really sort of family-based mentality.
00:09:39It still is.
00:09:40I'm not sure about this family meeting.
00:09:43Okay.
00:09:44We're a little disturbed.
00:09:45We're disturbed, Jack.
00:09:47You should be disturbed.
00:09:48I'm getting married in about a fortnight.
00:09:53Who do your parents and grandparents want you to marry?
00:09:58Yeah.
00:09:59If you were to ask Nonna,
00:10:00she'd say marry someone Italian.
00:10:02A beautiful Italian girl.
00:10:03You'd like the heritage to stay strong?
00:10:05I'd like the heritage to stay strong, yes.
00:10:08Did you put that in your profile?
00:10:13I see myself as a pretty nurturing individual.
00:10:16I'm always there for a shoulder to cry on.
00:10:18Not even just in relationships,
00:10:19in friendships, in all that kind of thing.
00:10:22I'm glad you said that because I'm sitting here
00:10:24and I'm thinking you're a nice guy.
00:10:26I know.
00:10:27It's painfully nice, isn't it?
00:10:29You've been told that before too, haven't you?
00:10:30Yeah.
00:10:31A couple of times.
00:10:32Yeah.
00:10:32I can see that in you because you've got a sense about you
00:10:35which is that you care.
00:10:38Yeah.
00:10:39You're sensitive, I think.
00:10:41I definitely would say so as well.
00:10:43I wear my heart on my sleeve
00:10:45and I don't think that's a negative trait of mine.
00:10:47Do you ever feel like you get taken for granted
00:10:49or used in relationships?
00:10:51Look, I've been there.
00:10:52It's hurtful.
00:10:54It's definitely something that, you know,
00:10:56has been a struggle for me in the past
00:10:58and plays on my mind when I'm in a relationship.
00:11:00Why would you put yourself up for this
00:11:03knowing that you could get your heart broken?
00:11:06You've got to be brave to do this.
00:11:08Because I'm not an individual to do things with half effort.
00:11:15I never have been.
00:11:17I want someone to build a life with
00:11:23as if that's not such an amazing achievement.
00:11:26Being able to share a lifetime.
00:11:29The rest of it comes secondary.
00:11:31Having the house, having all that.
00:11:33I'm sure it'll happen
00:11:35but I'm so excited about just being in love.
00:11:40So this is our Italian power couple.
00:11:42Oh, I love it.
00:11:43And I cannot wait to see how they go through this whole thing.
00:11:48Great match, Jack and Dom.
00:11:51And I'm so excited about Ella and Mitch.
00:11:54I think Ella is one of our most interesting participants
00:11:59and Mitch remains a little bit of an enigma.
00:12:02Yes, I agree.
00:12:03I think Mitch, he's a guy that's actually quite introverted.
00:12:06He's not really been in a long-term relationship
00:12:10and I think he's also quite cynical about the process
00:12:13and also about us as experts.
00:12:15Can we really do what we say that we do?
00:12:18But he made it very clear that he's very ready to commit.
00:12:21He really wants the relationships
00:12:23and I'm really excited about Ella.
00:12:25Ella is really interesting.
00:12:27I mean, if you look at her
00:12:28she looks like straight out of an Instagram account.
00:12:30She's so beautiful.
00:12:31She's young.
00:12:32She's very modern.
00:12:33You might think that's all she has to offer
00:12:36but she has so much depth.
00:12:38She's been single for nine years.
00:12:39She's been let down and rejected a lot by men.
00:12:42So there's a real vulnerability there
00:12:44but because of that, she is confident, independent
00:12:47and self-assured.
00:13:02People maybe look at you and think you're fine, right?
00:13:05Oh, hunty, yeah.
00:13:08I'm sure people do look at me
00:13:11and think that she's happy and still alive and having fun
00:13:17and, you know, it all looks maybe a certain way
00:13:20especially through like socials
00:13:22you can make life look however you want it to look.
00:13:25But when it really comes down to it
00:13:27like I'm in bed, I'm by myself
00:13:31with maybe one of the cats, Misha
00:13:33but that's not enough
00:13:36and they're not the cuddles that I want.
00:13:38I'm Ella, I'm 27 and I'm from Melbourne.
00:13:43I want to get right into it.
00:13:44Why do you think you need to come on the show?
00:13:47What's going on?
00:13:49Well, I mean, I've been single for nine years.
00:13:52It's a long time.
00:13:52It's a long time.
00:13:54Yeah, it's a long time to not feel that love.
00:14:02Do you go out on dates?
00:14:04Yes.
00:14:04You do?
00:14:05Yes.
00:14:06I'm definitely an active single woman
00:14:11but the constant disappointment
00:14:16it's been hard.
00:14:25The dating world is pretty brutal.
00:14:28I feel like I've tried and done it all
00:14:31and what I attract is boys, commitment phobias.
00:14:38I just want to have fun.
00:14:39I'm not looking for anything serious.
00:14:42You can have me on the weekends.
00:14:44A guy said that to me one time.
00:14:49And yeah, definitely hinders your self-esteem, I think
00:14:56and what you think you're worthy of.
00:15:01You know, it makes you question, am I gonna have that life?
00:15:07Like the family.
00:15:09It gets to a point where you just like, it's easy to be on your own.
00:15:17It's easy to be solo.
00:15:23I haven't had a boyfriend, someone to call my boyfriend in nine years.
00:15:27Like that's a long time.
00:15:31A long time to be lonely.
00:15:33I am always looking, chasing.
00:15:39What more I could be doing with my life?
00:15:41I don't feel satisfied.
00:15:46I want someone to do everything with.
00:15:51But your dream man, like what is your dream man?
00:15:55Okay, so the dream list.
00:15:57The dream man.
00:16:02Olive skin, light green eyes, brown hair, fit, loyal, independent and courageous.
00:16:21I used to say I'm not picky, but when I started interviewing for this,
00:16:26I was like, shit, I am picky.
00:16:28I guess I'm more picky than my friends.
00:16:34Because it doesn't bother me being single at all.
00:16:38I'm always open to love, always open to find someone and
00:16:43be with someone and grow with someone.
00:16:44But it just hasn't happened.
00:16:45I just haven't found that person yet.
00:16:54There are things in your life that you should take seriously.
00:16:56And love is just one of those things.
00:16:59My name is Mitchell.
00:17:00I'm 26 and I'm from the Gold Coast.
00:17:03In terms of like talking to women, I would definitely say no, I'm not confident.
00:17:09With group situations, I like don't go to festivals or like if it's a nightclub.
00:17:16Not my thing at all.
00:17:20I'm very much my own person.
00:17:22I'm very much my own person.
00:17:25I love my alone time and just sort of going with the flow and doing my own thing.
00:17:30I'm open to anything and everything.
00:17:32But yeah, I guess you get a little bit sceptical about the entire experiment.
00:17:38All right, Mitch.
00:17:40So I'm scratching my head.
00:17:45Why is it that you are doing this?
00:17:47Because he's a good looking guy who essentially has got the world at his feet,
00:17:52could meet anybody, anytime.
00:17:57There's nothing about you that says I'm desperate.
00:18:01So why would you choose to go into this massive experiment
00:18:05that takes you way out of your comfort zone?
00:18:08Well, I've tried everything.
00:18:11I don't believe you.
00:18:12I don't believe you.
00:18:13I don't know what to tell you then.
00:18:15Why is it that you are doing this?
00:18:17Well, I'm not desperate and I don't desperately want to stop being single.
00:18:21It's just the thought of being with someone and being able to, you know,
00:18:24someone that's like-minded, someone that you enjoy spending time with,
00:18:28that you want to grow with, have a family with, you know, be with for the rest of your life.
00:18:32I like the idea, but I just haven't been able to find anyone.
00:18:39And it's all well and good for you to say,
00:18:40well, you haven't found anyone, you've been out there looking,
00:18:42but I haven't had anyone, an expert, you know, find someone out of,
00:18:47what was it, 10 or 20,000 people and say,
00:18:50all right, this is going to be the right person for him.
00:18:55You can use social media, you can go out to the bars and clubs and meet women,
00:19:01but the chance of meeting someone that I'm going to actually want to
00:19:06spend time with and grow with and learn with and spend my future with is pretty slim.
00:19:13What makes you think this is going to be different?
00:19:20Well, you're meant to be the expert.
00:19:25If you're only lukewarm about this experiment, it doesn't matter how expert I am.
00:19:31It doesn't matter who I put in front of you.
00:19:33Yeah.
00:19:34It's going to fail.
00:19:36No, you're right, you're right.
00:19:38What traits do you find really important?
00:19:41Just someone that's level-headed, got a good heart, a good family.
00:19:45Yeah, someone that's confident, spontaneous.
00:19:48It's more so I'm looking for good energy, a good vibe, hopefully we just click.
00:19:53But I guess in this experiment, I mean, the chances of me
00:19:57having that are going to be quite slim.
00:19:59So I've got the three months to, for you and whoever else to tell me,
00:20:03I'm doing this wrong, I'm doing that wrong, I need to work on this.
00:20:06Now, Mitch, this is interesting.
00:20:10And I like that.
00:20:14Look, I hope this experiment works.
00:20:19I hope my bride is perfect for me and I hope that I'm perfect for her.
00:20:24I'm definitely hopeful, but I am a bit sceptical.
00:20:28I'm going to say, I think that we all need to be prepared for
00:20:33the way in which Mitch will question us throughout this experiment.
00:20:37It does present a challenge for us that I think we're all up to.
00:20:41I cannot wait to see what happens when these two lock eyes with one another.
00:20:46It's going to be exciting.
00:20:49And just between us,
00:20:50I'm looking forward to proving Mitch wrong
00:20:52and showing him that we do know what we're talking about.
00:20:55And this is a great match with Ella.
00:20:57Yeah, I agree.
00:21:04Next.
00:21:05Two years ago, I made the hardest decision to walk away from my marriage.
00:21:11I'm like, I don't want to fail again.
00:21:14Dominique, I'm so proud of you.
00:21:16I don't regret my wedding.
00:21:27Yes, it happened, but I healed myself.
00:21:32And now I know that I'm allowed to decide what I want out of my life.
00:21:43I'm definitely ready to fall in love.
00:21:45I'm still skeptical, but I am meant to be experts.
00:21:49So, you know, I'm putting my faith in them 100%.
00:21:52As their wedding day dawns, our newest brides and grooms
00:21:56are turning their thoughts towards an unknown future with an unknown partner.
00:22:01As their wedding day dawns our newest brides and grooms are turning their
00:22:17thoughts towards an unknown future with an unknown partner. Today is not a normal
00:22:22day. Today is one of the biggest days maybe in my whole life because I wanted
00:22:33to be my only wedding. I want him to be the only one. Yeah I definitely not as
00:22:40calm as I was a couple hours ago. I'm not feeling nervous, not yet. Maybe the drive
00:22:50will be when it really kicks in for me and I really start to shit myself.
00:22:59How is it man getting married?
00:23:06And for perennial nice guy Jack the enormity of what today holds is weighing heavily. It's
00:23:15about as real as it gets right now. I mean once I walk out that door it's straight up to the
00:23:21wedding. It's crazy to think that she's out there somewhere. I get to meet someone who will
00:23:28hopefully be the one, the real deal, my partner forever.
00:23:38I'm sure she's nervous. I mean I'm nervous. This is a scary experience. We're getting
00:23:44married. While his future bride Dominica stands at the brink of a giant leap as she
00:23:55faces the prospect of walking down the aisle for a second time.
00:24:05Two years ago I made the hardest decision I've ever had to make in my life. To walk
00:24:13away from my marriage two months after I had a big wedding. It was the worst thing ever. So
00:24:24standing here right now really scares me because I've been here before. I stood there in front of
00:24:34all my family and my friends and I promised myself to this person. And when that didn't
00:24:43work I felt like shit. I felt like a failure. There's definitely been some moments where I
00:24:50thought do I really want to wear a wedding dress again and do the whole thing? Like I
00:24:56don't want to fail again. But I don't want to be that woman that doesn't reach for what she
00:25:06she wants because she's afraid.
00:25:16I'm not afraid anymore.
00:25:24Oh wow.
00:25:29Okay now it really feels real.
00:25:36I'm ready.
00:25:54I don't regret my wedding. I don't regret anything I did. Yes it happened. But I healed
00:26:01myself and now I know that I'm allowed to decide what I want out of my life. And what I want is to
00:26:09fall in love again. Because I have so much love to give and I want to be loved.
00:26:31I'm just about to walk into the biggest unknown ever. I know it sounds cheesy and maybe there's a
00:26:40nice guy in me. But honestly I just want to be a good husband. Whoever my bride is.
00:27:01All right here we go. Thank you.
00:27:13There's going to be nerves. There's going to be doubts. But I read an article and it said
00:27:21something along the lines of when you see someone for the first time you know within less than a
00:27:28second whether you have a connection. But when I turn around no matter who's standing there
00:27:37by far the most important thing I just want to see someone with a huge smile.
00:27:43Do I stand up here? As big as mine. How you doing? I'm just ready to go.
00:27:53I'm nervous everyone.
00:27:54Are you going to give her a kiss Jack? Have a seat mate.
00:28:03Oh my god.
00:28:14Oh my god this is really happening now. Holy shit. Oh shit. There's horsies.
00:28:20There's horses. Oh my god.
00:28:30Oh my god. This is really happening now. Oh my god. Oh my god. Yep there it is.
00:28:42Oh my god he's there waiting.
00:28:44I'm
00:28:50kind of shitting myself.
00:29:14Even after everything I've gone through I still believe in love at first sight.
00:29:29My parents are living proof of it happening.
00:29:38I just think their love story is I guess it's not very modern but
00:29:43I still think it's beautiful.
00:29:47My dad rocked up to my mum's family farm to buy a box of tomatoes.
00:29:56And my mum's grandfather said Anna this is a single man. You know it was the 80s but it
00:30:02felt like the 1800s. Oh boy. And my mum looked at him from across the way.
00:30:13And they saw each other and she thought that's him. He's going to be the one. Hi.
00:30:26Welcome. Hi. You look beautiful. Hi thank you. I'm Dominica. Sorry what was your name? Jack.
00:30:35Jack. Nice to meet you. This is exciting. Yes. I'm so nervous. I'm so nervous too. About 10
00:30:41nerves. Yeah yeah yeah. All of them. I was wondering if you'd be nervous because like I
00:30:44was just sitting in the car. I'm nervous. Yeah yeah yeah. It's all kind of building up. Not
00:30:50quite sure what's going to happen. Yes. Now we're here. Yeah let's do it. All right we're doing it.
00:30:54Okay. 100% doing it. Hey. Hi. Did you want to just face each other? Yes. She's beautiful. She
00:31:02really is. Bright blue eyes. A huge smile on her face. Like I'm so over the moon.
00:31:08Just check each other out for a bit. Yeah yeah. Just quickly. I look like this. I look like this.
00:31:13Phenomenal. From first impressions he's perfect. I like that when he looks at me I like feel like
00:31:19he's really looking at me. Top. Bottom. Top. I don't know. I'm not going to start with the dirty
00:31:26jokes at the altar okay. Come on. I'm definitely feeling the chemistry. I just wanted someone who
00:31:32had a really kind smile and and beautiful eyes. I'm so happy. It's exciting. Yeah.
00:31:41Hi. Hello. My family and friends. Oh that's so nice. So you could have your family here. Yeah.
00:31:51What's your mum's name? What's your name? Monica. Monica. I'm Domenica which is kind of like Monica
00:31:55but the Italian version. God you. Jack. Jack's Italian heritage as well. You're gonna love
00:32:01Nona. You're Italian as well? Yeah. Really? Yeah. Quite literally. Northern? Yeah. Where are you
00:32:08from? The south. So you got the Calabrese fiery Italian to deal with. Yeah I can't believe that.
00:32:14What's with that? It's gonna be some fire. She's not wrong. We're both born. Oh this is gonna be fun.
00:32:23Today Domenica and Jack come together in this gorgeous setting in the hopes of finding their
00:32:28soul mates. You meet as strangers but are committed in the hope that strangers can become partners
00:32:35who are ready and willing to love, respect and support each other. And now Domenica and Jack
00:32:42have each written personal vows for each other.
00:32:45Never in all of my wildest dreams would I have thought I'd be standing in front of you,
00:32:49a stranger, in a white dress committing myself wholeheartedly. In the last couple of years I've
00:32:56not only grown as a person but have come to accept now is the right time for me to allow
00:33:00love back into my life. I don't like the word regret. Everything in my life that has happened
00:33:07has led me here and right here with you is where I'm meant to be. I don't like the word
00:33:14regret. Everything in my life that has happened has led me here and right here with you is where
00:33:16I'm meant to be. I go above and beyond for those I love. I promise to make you all of my favourite
00:33:20Italian recipes that my nonna taught me. Even the ones that include me because I'm a vegetarian and
00:33:25I hope that's not a deal breaker. So am I. You're a veg-o. Dick. We came here today as strangers but
00:33:31we leave as one. I cannot wait to go on this journey with you. That's so beautiful. Thank you.
00:33:37I've come to this experiment to meet someone special by putting my faith in the experts
00:33:46that have matched us together. I've come to find someone that I truly do admire,
00:33:50adore and maybe find I wish to spend the rest of my life with. Now marriage has always been
00:33:55something that I truly do admire and I've always seen it in my future. I guess you could say my
00:34:01search for love hasn't quite worked out yet and I haven't found the one but that's why I'm lucky
00:34:06enough to be standing here with you. I guess all I can ask is that you love dogs as much as I do
00:34:11because unfortunately I have to admit you're not only marrying me but also my little dog Finn.
00:34:18Okay look that way.
00:34:21Oh no.
00:34:22Oh my god.
00:34:43The dog like oh my god. I just wanted to scream but I had to like keep composure.
00:34:47Hi mum. I'm sorry I know.
00:34:53It was everything. It was so beautiful. Hey it's okay.
00:35:00Okay Dominica will you repeat after me please? Yes. With this ring. With this ring. Comes the
00:35:05hope of a happy future together. Comes the hope of a happy future together.
00:35:09And Jack. Yes. With this ring. With this ring. Comes my promise of commitment. Comes my promise
00:35:19of commitment. To an experiment I hope will last forever. To an experiment that I hope will last
00:35:23forever. So now I am very happy to pronounce you husband and wife. It's time to kiss the bride.
00:35:37Yeah.
00:35:43Italian? Check. Dog lover? Check. Vegetarian? Check.
00:35:50Very happy. Oh my god. Honestly the guy that I was dreaming of and like envisioning
00:35:57he really is that guy.
00:36:07So
00:36:10so
00:36:30The next two singles to enter the Married at First Sight experiment are Ella and Mitch.
00:36:35And today marks a life-changing departure from their usual solitary worlds
00:36:44as they each embark on the quest to find something extraordinary.
00:36:49Today is one of the biggest days that I will ever experience. Maybe in my whole life.
00:37:01Even though this whole thing really is extreme I've never had one doubt.
00:37:08I feel like I'm right where I'm supposed to be.
00:37:18I look like a warrior. I'm grateful for all of the years that I've had and I'm grateful for
00:37:25I look like a warrior. I'm grateful for all of the years that I've had being a single woman
00:37:41because I wouldn't be where I am now without those years.
00:37:45But I'm ready. Give me one man. Just give me one good man. That's all I need.
00:38:01Oh look I like to think that I'm pretty good at first impressions. You know stand tall look her
00:38:05straight in the eyes. I would say I'm very independent. I love going with the flow and
00:38:11I would say I'm very independent. I love going with the flow and doing my own thing.
00:38:16But I'm definitely ready to see what else is in store for me.
00:38:20The reason that I'm here is to be vulnerable. It's to let my walls down and hopefully fall in love.
00:38:30I'm not gonna force love. Love is just one of those things that's just gonna
00:38:33it's either gonna come or it's not. I'm definitely ready to fall in love.
00:38:37I'm sort of skeptical but like I'm meant to be experts.
00:38:41So you know I'm putting my faith in them 100 percent.
00:39:08I don't have a particular type.
00:39:20I'm looking for someone that I can connect with on a deeper level than that.
00:39:25You know that spark that click that's what really excites me.
00:39:33I'm not gonna settle for for less than that.
00:39:38If I can fall in love out of this if I come out of it with a lifelong partner
00:39:48then I'll definitely be a different person.
00:39:56I don't believe that you should ever settle.
00:40:00So when I get to the end of the aisle I hope that I feel that real fire.
00:40:08I feel like I'm ready for it.
00:40:20Now I know I'm ready for it.
00:40:37I'll be surprised if I turn around and see my dream woman.
00:40:50Maybe I just don't believe the experts as good as what they say.
00:40:57But you know on the same breath I'm pretty hopeful.
00:41:01I'd love for them to prove me wrong.
00:41:08Hello how are you?
00:41:19You look gorgeous.
00:41:20You look gorgeous.
00:41:23Oh wow.
00:41:23I'm Mitch.
00:41:24Lovely to meet you.
00:41:28Wow you smell really good.
00:41:33You have a great smile.
00:41:38Oh you are gorgeous.
00:41:40So that's great.
00:41:41You look amazing.
00:41:45So do you.
00:41:45So do you.
00:41:49They definitely hit the nail on the head with things I asked for.
00:41:54Yes likewise.
00:41:55Likewise.
00:41:57Gorgeous eyes.
00:41:59Yeah smile.
00:42:01Short.
00:42:02Okay.
00:42:03Just a great figure.
00:42:04Groomed.
00:42:06You're wearing something that I know.
00:42:08Cologne.
00:42:08What are you wearing?
00:42:10Mont Blanc.
00:42:13Yeah well you smell amazing.
00:42:15That's huge for me.
00:42:16Scent is huge.
00:42:19Can you smell me?
00:42:20Yeah yeah.
00:42:21There's a lot.
00:42:22There's a lot going on.
00:42:23Yeah.
00:42:23I know.
00:42:26All right guys.
00:42:27Shall we start then?
00:42:30All right.
00:42:31Oh man.
00:42:35Ella and Mitch I welcome you two to this very special moment in your lives.
00:42:45A marriage is a voluntary and full commitment
00:42:49and it is entered into with the desire and the hope that it will last a lifetime.
00:42:59Ella and Mitch it is time for you to make your marriage vows to each other.
00:43:05Ella today I say I do but to me that means I will.
00:43:13I will take your hand and stand by your side in the good and the bad.
00:43:17I'm willing to be vulnerable and open and give this marriage every opportunity at success.
00:43:24It feels really nice being close to him.
00:43:27Just us.
00:43:28Coming into this I was nervous, anxious and I was somewhat skeptical
00:43:33about if this was the right thing for me to do.
00:43:36But standing here now I want today to be the first and last time that I walk down the aisle.
00:43:44You can see him looking at me like really looking at me.
00:43:49I dedicate myself to your happiness,
00:43:51your success and promise to give you all of me 100% of the time.
00:43:57It's intense in a good way, in a really good way.
00:44:02That's mine.
00:44:05That was good, that was exactly, that was all I needed.
00:44:08I'm glad.
00:44:08Like it's just it's nice hearing it from a really gorgeous man who feel like he means it and yeah.
00:44:19Okay, all righty.
00:44:27Mitch, I have been so excited and have been anticipating meeting you, my mystery man.
00:44:40You're doing good, you're doing good.
00:44:42When I fantasize about the man I'm proud to be seen with,
00:44:45I imagine that he has integrity and character.
00:44:49The Latin origin of integrity means whole.
00:44:52Now when it comes to being a good guy, wholesome is sexy.
00:44:58If you are seeking unconditional support, an open heart and an open mind, then I am your girl.
00:45:06My heart is racing.
00:45:09She's beautiful man.
00:45:11She has great energy, got a great smile, great eyes.
00:45:15Being the P to my pod means I will bring honesty, good vibes only.
00:45:21I'm very impressed.
00:45:24I'm so excited to embark on this crazy journey,
00:45:28but oh baby, it's going to be absolutely elite doing it with you.
00:45:32That was great, that was awesome, I loved that.
00:45:35The experts have definitely nailed it, yeah 100%.
00:45:38Hang on, I want to do this.
00:45:41All right, so here we go.
00:45:43Ella, from the moment I met you, I knew that I'd marry you.
00:45:48Will you be my wife?
00:45:53Yes.
00:45:53Beautiful.
00:45:56He got down on one knee, he got down on one knee.
00:46:00Like I'm ecstatic, where did this guy come from?
00:46:03Damn, so far it's just like everything that I've asked for.
00:46:19Despite having only just met, the sparks are already flying.
00:46:24I'm so excited to be with you.
00:46:25I'm so excited to be with you.
00:46:27I'm so excited to be with you.
00:46:29I'm so excited to be with you.
00:46:31Sparks are already flying for Ella and Mitch.
00:46:35Okay guys, that's all we need guys.
00:46:41Guys.
00:46:42As they waste no time forging a connection.
00:46:47Are the boobs okay though?
00:46:48Yeah.
00:46:50Domenica is hung up on a psychic vision of the letter M.
00:46:55Oh my god, I have to ask him about this M thing.
00:46:58That's great, you're facing each other.
00:47:00Like I've been constantly envisioning M.
00:47:02Maybe he's from somewhere M.
00:47:05I can't wait to ask him.
00:47:06Okay, as soon as I knew that I was going into the experiment, I was going to be here.
00:47:10I just kept thinking M, something with M.
00:47:12What about M?
00:47:13I don't know.
00:47:14I'm just trying to think like, where are you from?
00:47:16So I live in Sydney.
00:47:17Yeah.
00:47:17About 20 minutes south of here is where I grew up.
00:47:19So why was I thinking M?
00:47:23That's weird.
00:47:24Hang on, where do you live now?
00:47:25You live in Sydney.
00:47:26I'm in Millers Point, you know where the rocks is?
00:47:27M! Okay, that's where the M is.
00:47:29Oh my god.
00:47:31My last name is Miller.
00:47:37Oh my god.
00:47:39I am psycho, see?
00:47:41Yeah.
00:47:42So I was right.
00:47:44My psycho predictions were right.
00:47:47But guys, why get another little kiss out there because it looks so beautiful.
00:47:51Oh yeah, absolutely.
00:47:51Oh yeah, do you want to fix that?
00:47:53All right.
00:47:54You can take it off later.
00:47:57Something.
00:47:58I don't know if I believe in these sixth sense things or not.
00:48:04But I do know that Dom's a great kisser.
00:48:09I think the experts have nailed it.
00:48:13I mean, Dom's beautiful and she's lovely.
00:48:16And like, she seems completely unique.
00:48:18It's gonna get wet.
00:48:19And it's gonna get duck shit on it.
00:48:24Hello everybody.
00:48:25Hi.
00:48:27Oh, I'm stuck.
00:48:29To the rescue, Jack.
00:48:33I'm definitely feeling some sort of connection brewing.
00:48:36Oh, cheers guys, cheers.
00:48:37Cheers everyone.
00:48:38Thank you so much everyone for being here.
00:48:39Cheers to us.
00:48:40Cheers.
00:48:41You gotta look at the person before you cheers because...
00:48:44He's gorgeous.
00:48:45He seems really kind and sweet.
00:48:47Hang on.
00:48:48Put it behind me.
00:48:49Yeah, like that.
00:48:51That's all right, he needs to be told.
00:48:52It's fine.
00:48:54Okay.
00:48:56So, was I what you were expecting?
00:49:00I said three things.
00:49:02Smile on the face.
00:49:03I said blue eyes.
00:49:04And I asked wild dogs.
00:49:07So, you've checked every box so far.
00:49:09And more.
00:49:10But looks wise, like, were you happy when...
00:49:12Oh, you're beautiful.
00:49:13You really are.
00:49:15Seriously, I mean that quite honestly.
00:49:16Like, I was just like...
00:49:18I'm really happy with who the experts have paired me with.
00:49:21He, yeah, genuinely really happy.
00:49:27And like, I can't believe how much we have in common.
00:49:29Wait, what music do you like?
00:49:30Oh, this is diverse.
00:49:32Okay, but come on.
00:49:33No, this is huge.
00:49:34What are your thoughts on Justin Timberlake?
00:49:37Jack's a massive fan of JT.
00:49:38You like Justin Timberlake?
00:49:40Yeah.
00:49:41I like that song, Mirrors.
00:49:44That's all we need.
00:49:45That's all we need.
00:49:45I like Mirrors.
00:49:47It's like you're my mirror.
00:49:48Yeah.
00:49:51Have you got any concerns at this point?
00:49:53Well, I mean, I haven't told him yet that I've been married before.
00:49:58And I'm a bit worried to have that conversation.
00:50:02Like, we're having fun.
00:50:03What about the new Drake album?
00:50:05I don't know who Drake is.
00:50:08But I'm sitting at the dinner table with this big thing hanging over me.
00:50:12You know, my divorce and the fact that I was in a marriage for such a short period of time.
00:50:18When was your last relationship?
00:50:21Three, three, three, four years ago.
00:50:24And what's you?
00:50:24When's your last thing?
00:50:25You mentioned in your vows, you were like, I'm ready after so long.
00:50:29Yeah, like 18 months.
00:50:30Mm-hmm.
00:50:31What happened then?
00:50:32Um.
00:50:34That's a good question to ask in a public setting.
00:50:36It's hard when you've just met someone and you really want them to like you and you want to put your best foot forward.
00:50:40But when something's in your past, that necessarily isn't positive.
00:50:44And you have to tell them this huge thing.
00:50:47It's like nerve-wracking.
00:50:51You can be totally honest.
00:50:52Yeah, no, I do want to be totally honest.
00:50:55I've been judged so much in the past from this marriage breakdown.
00:51:00And, you know, I'm scared of having that from someone that I really want to like me.
00:51:08I think I want to talk to you.
00:51:10Maybe not.
00:51:12Yeah.
00:51:14Like I'm really f***ing myself now.
00:51:36In Sydney, at an intimate wedding reception for two,
00:51:41the chemistry between Ella and Mitch is palpable.
00:51:45I just want you to tell me, like, everything about you.
00:51:47Do you like Mitch or Mitchell?
00:51:49Look, you can call me whatever you like.
00:51:51If you prefer Mitchell, go for it.
00:51:53Yeah.
00:51:55I feel like that just comes naturally for me.
00:51:57Hubby.
00:52:01Looks wise, Mitchell's a solid 10 out of 10.
00:52:03All right.
00:52:05What am I thinking?
00:52:07I'm thinking, yes.
00:52:10The chemistry is there.
00:52:12He's gorgeous.
00:52:14Your eyes are really nice.
00:52:16Yeah, they're beautiful.
00:52:18And you look really good.
00:52:20So do you.
00:52:22She's gorgeous.
00:52:26She's confident.
00:52:28She seems very charismatic.
00:52:30I'm looking forward to dinner.
00:52:32I'm hungry.
00:52:36And she's hungry as well.
00:52:38Yeah, looking forward
00:52:40to enjoying a meal with her.
00:52:48So what are your thoughts?
00:52:50I just...
00:52:52You're so single.
00:52:54Would you have believed that she was Italian?
00:52:56Yeah, I know.
00:52:58Jack and Domenica have only just met
00:53:00and married at first sight,
00:53:02but already friends and family
00:53:04are marvelling at their similarities.
00:53:07We were standing next to each other
00:53:09and it was like match made in heaven.
00:53:11And I saw the way you looked at him.
00:53:13Yeah, I mean, he's very handsome.
00:53:15I was very happy.
00:53:17Look at the llamas.
00:53:19Yeah, I know.
00:53:21Are they llamas?
00:53:23No, they're alpacas.
00:53:25Yeah, like, look, all in all,
00:53:27I'm actually really happy.
00:53:29I thought you should be.
00:53:31But as the connection between the pair grows,
00:53:33so too does Domenica's insecurity
00:53:35about her failed first marriage.
00:53:37I want to ask you guys a question,
00:53:39now that he's not here.
00:53:41Obviously, you two know my past.
00:53:43But I wanted to speak with you guys
00:53:45because you're his best mates.
00:53:47Yeah, it's what I've been most nervous about
00:53:49this whole day.
00:53:51But yeah, I guess communication is key.
00:53:55So I've been married before.
00:53:59I'm divorced.
00:54:01And I guess, you know,
00:54:04that's a pretty big experience in my life.
00:54:06Yeah, for sure.
00:54:08Can we ask the question how long ago it was?
00:54:1018 months ago.
00:54:12Yeah.
00:54:14And, you know, we weren't married for long.
00:54:16We were married for two months.
00:54:18I do like her.
00:54:20From first day, I really do.
00:54:22Slow.
00:54:24Yeah, that's the thing.
00:54:26That's not something I'm strong at.
00:54:28No, slow.
00:54:30There are going to be moments that are going to be difficult.
00:54:32Straight away.
00:54:34But you have a connection.
00:54:36Thank God.
00:54:38How do you think he's going to react?
00:54:46How ready are you, do you reckon?
00:54:48Very personal question.
00:54:5018 months.
00:54:52I've known you for the past four hours.
00:54:54But how ready are you to give yourself to John?
00:54:56I am so ready.
00:54:58I'm ready to settle down, have kids.
00:55:01I want to make a home with someone.
00:55:03That's the stage I'm at in my life.
00:55:0528 and divorce is not where I saw myself.
00:55:07Yeah.
00:55:09And it's hard to even hear myself say that.
00:55:11I want to be in a loving relationship
00:55:13with someone who wants me
00:55:15wholeheartedly for everything that I am.
00:55:17Yeah.
00:55:19That's Jack.
00:55:21Yeah, that's Jack.
00:55:23You know, I'm scared of
00:55:25judgement, you know, from someone
00:55:27that I really want to like me.
00:55:29It's like nerve-wracking.
00:55:31Is it because you really like him?
00:55:35Yeah, it is.
00:55:37It's because I really like him and I can see
00:55:39that there's something there.
00:55:41Which is really scary and confronting.
00:55:43What do you think
00:55:45that his mum will say?
00:55:47I can tell that she's tough.
00:55:49Yeah, Monika's
00:55:51looking out
00:55:53for Jack.
00:55:55Monika raised Jack
00:55:58for a number of years.
00:56:00She's a young mum, an incredible mum.
00:56:02So Jack, she's always got her eye out for Jack.
00:56:04Any more words of wisdom before we
00:56:06jump back in?
00:56:08Happy with it?
00:56:10Yeah.
00:56:12I think it's just starting to rain now.
00:56:14My words of wisdom are never walk in front of your mum.
00:56:16You can't do anything but be transparent.
00:56:18Otherwise you're just setting yourself up for failure.
00:56:22I think if you can respect him
00:56:24and be honest with him
00:56:27then, yeah, he'll give you what you need.
00:56:31Yeah.
00:56:43So you're not vegan?
00:56:45Um, no, I'm not vegan.
00:56:47Could you imagine if I was?
00:56:49I am.
00:56:51No, I'm not.
00:56:53Big tip.
00:56:55I am the most gullible person.
00:56:57Really?
00:56:59You got any kids?
00:57:01Do I have kids?
00:57:03No. Do you have kids?
00:57:05I have two boys.
00:57:07Really?
00:57:09No, I'm joking. I just wanted to test the whole gullible thing.
00:57:11Don't do that.
00:57:13I won't do it again.
00:57:15Do you want kids?
00:57:17Yeah, I do.
00:57:19You?
00:57:22Sexual chemistry.
00:57:26Sexual chemistry?
00:57:32I wouldn't normally order something like this, probably.
00:57:34But I like it.
00:57:36I love voices.
00:57:38F*** yeah, he's gorgeous.
00:57:40Like,
00:57:42the suit.
00:57:44His smell.
00:57:46His eyes.
00:57:48Careful, you've got...
00:57:50Yeah.
00:57:56There's a lot there.
00:57:58I don't mind trying new things.
00:58:00Okay.
00:58:02I'll hold you to that.
00:58:04What were you expecting
00:58:06when you walked in that room?
00:58:08I was sort of expecting, like,
00:58:10I don't know, just definitely not
00:58:12you.
00:58:14You took me by surprise.
00:58:16You made me feel very hot.
00:58:19I think I blacked out for a minute.
00:58:21I hope that's a good thing.
00:58:23Yeah, I mean,
00:58:25I was, like, flustered.
00:58:27I was speechless as well.
00:58:29Smile was the first thing I noticed about you.
00:58:31Really?
00:58:33Just smile, your teeth.
00:58:35But, like, personality is, like, big for me.
00:58:37Like, I've nearly, you know,
00:58:39like, fallen for people based on
00:58:41just personality, not looks at all.
00:58:43It's funny you say that.
00:58:45I'm exactly the same.
00:58:47I feel like everything that he says,
00:58:49it sounds like me.
00:58:51So what was your, like,
00:58:53what did you ask for?
00:58:55Big things for me were, like,
00:58:57someone that's very confident, knows what they want
00:58:59and goes after it, because I find that
00:59:01very attractive.
00:59:03Like, everything he says is, like, what I want.
00:59:05It's, like, what I'm looking for.
00:59:07It's what I'm hoping for.
00:59:09That was really it.
00:59:11I don't want to have doubts.
00:59:13It's basically my
00:59:16criteria, too.
00:59:18But I'm just so used
00:59:20to attracting the wrong kind of guys.
00:59:22Almost, it's hard for me
00:59:24to, like, hear words like
00:59:26that from someone
00:59:28who looks like he should be on the front of a magazine.
00:59:34There you go.
00:59:36The experts have got you and I together then.
00:59:38I'm, like,
00:59:40starting to like him a lot, so I'm getting
00:59:42really scared. And then, you know, when, like,
00:59:44the self-sabotage stuff kicks in,
00:59:46the doubts.
00:59:48Like, is he just telling me
00:59:50what I want to hear?
00:59:52Yeah.
00:59:54And then ruins it.
00:59:56It really ruins it.
00:59:58Right now,
01:00:00it feels too good to be true.
01:00:08Just hours into her new relationship,
01:00:10Domenica is feeling the pressure
01:00:13to reveal her previous marriage to her new husband,
01:00:15Jack.
01:00:17She has decided to take
01:00:19Jack's mum, Monica, aside
01:00:21to pay respect to her new mother-in-law
01:00:23and seek advice on how to
01:00:25handle the situation.
01:00:27I think it's super important. It's his mum and he's really
01:00:29close with his mum, so I think it's gonna be really
01:00:31great to get that advice from her.
01:00:33What were your first impressions
01:00:35of Jack?
01:00:37I was, like, honestly, I just saw his smile
01:00:39and his beautiful blue eyes.
01:00:42I was really happy.
01:00:44What do you think?
01:00:46I'm stoked. Honestly, this has been great.
01:00:48Any concerns?
01:00:50No. Genuinely, not at the moment.
01:00:52I can definitely feel it.
01:00:54There's definitely something there.
01:00:56I've landed a great guy.
01:00:58Who comes from, you know,
01:01:00very strong values.
01:01:02Yeah. I know. I can see that.
01:01:04And I think that's something you'll find
01:01:06about us and our family.
01:01:08We're very family-oriented.
01:01:12I'm just thinking to myself, I have to tell her about
01:01:14my divorce and my marriage,
01:01:16like, now.
01:01:18I need to tell you, life is never boring
01:01:20with Jack. He just has
01:01:22so much to offer.
01:01:24Seriously. Because he's always been so talented.
01:01:26So we got to see him ski all
01:01:28the time. We got to have all these
01:01:30experiences. Yeah. I can
01:01:32definitely say that we're gonna have heaps of fun.
01:01:34You know, getting Jack's mum's
01:01:36approval is huge
01:01:38to me. Yeah, of course. And I'm not
01:01:40silly. You can do it together because
01:01:42experiences you can have with the sort of energy
01:01:44that both of you have.
01:01:46I felt it straight away from you.
01:01:48Yeah. Seriously.
01:01:50I can't just say he's actually a very good communicator.
01:01:52But I can't get a word in.
01:01:54Do you know how many people stop me and say,
01:01:56oh my god, you've brought up Jack so well
01:01:58and I'm thinking, because if you don't
01:02:00Oh my god, he's such a
01:02:02good boy. Whatever you've done, you've done.
01:02:04Yeah. No, I just wanted to
01:02:06have a chat with you
01:02:08because going into this, I just wanted to be
01:02:10open and honest. Okay, let me tell you, sometimes I think he's
01:02:12an over-sharer. Where's his heart on his
01:02:14sleeve, to a degree, I'd say.
01:02:16It's something that's really made me nervous.
01:02:18Don't be. Not looking for the virgin
01:02:20bride, I'm sure. Um...
01:02:22Oh, f***.
01:02:26No, but, like, I think
01:02:28he just has so much to offer.
01:02:30Yes, yeah.
01:02:32Sigh.
01:02:36While Domenica considers her
01:02:38next move,
01:02:40Ella faces a very different
01:02:42dilemma.
01:02:46After
01:02:48nine bruising years in the modern
01:02:50dating game, she's worried
01:02:52her new husband, Mitch, might be
01:02:54too good to be true.
01:02:56So she's reaching out to
01:02:58a good friend for advice.
01:03:00Hi!
01:03:06Oh, it's so nice to see you.
01:03:08It's so nice to see your face.
01:03:10Oh, my gosh.
01:03:12I don't believe you're married.
01:03:14Like...
01:03:16Who the heck did you marry?
01:03:18Oh, my God. I actually
01:03:20don't... Like, I don't even
01:03:22know where to start.
01:03:24Like, he's...
01:03:26He's freaking gorgeous.
01:03:28He smells, like,
01:03:30divine. His eyes
01:03:32are just, like, heaven.
01:03:36There's definitely, like...
01:03:38There's definitely chemistry there.
01:03:40I cannot believe it. I was not
01:03:42expecting you to be like this.
01:03:44Babe, neither was I.
01:03:46Do you reckon there's any hesitations?
01:03:48Like, anything that's sort of, like...
01:03:50Um...
01:03:52Yeah, like...
01:03:54He...
01:03:56He's...
01:03:58Everything that he was saying
01:04:00sounded like me.
01:04:02Do you feel like you're sort of leading that?
01:04:04I don't know.
01:04:10Like...
01:04:12Like, I've been single for nine years,
01:04:14and then someone who I just met
01:04:16is telling me everything I want to hear.
01:04:18I can't help but have self-doubt.
01:04:22That's just... It comes with
01:04:24always being disappointed,
01:04:26always being let down. Like, it just comes with it.
01:04:28Walls come up
01:04:30based on experiences
01:04:32and, you know, past and all that sort of stuff.
01:04:34Like...
01:04:36I just have... It's... Yeah.
01:04:38Like, it's...
01:04:40It's hard for me to explain.
01:04:44After everything that happened,
01:04:46after every other experience
01:04:48that I've been through,
01:04:50I do have doubts.
01:04:54It's hard for me to believe
01:04:56his words when he says them,
01:04:58so
01:05:00I want to, like, make sure that I
01:05:02ask the right questions
01:05:04without making him run for the hills.
01:05:08Are you feeling
01:05:10satisfied after food?
01:05:12Yeah. Are you feeling all right?
01:05:14So...
01:05:18Can I ask you a question?
01:05:20Why?
01:05:22Like, what makes you feel ready for this?
01:05:28Hunky man like you.
01:05:30Like, obviously, you've been on, like, what?
01:05:32Bumble, Tinder, Hinge.
01:05:34Like, I just don't doubt
01:05:36that you have so many gorgeous women
01:05:38DMing you.
01:05:40Yeah.
01:05:46I've tried all the traditional ways
01:05:48of dating. Social media,
01:05:50big girls out, you know,
01:05:52done all that shit.
01:05:54Just never had much luck.
01:05:56It's one of those things, like,
01:05:58there's nothing really substantial
01:06:00that comes out of it.
01:06:02For me, love's something that you have
01:06:04to work for, and, you know,
01:06:06it does take time to find someone
01:06:08that you enjoy spending time with,
01:06:10and I was hopeful the experts
01:06:12would just speed the process up for me.
01:06:16It's just energy.
01:06:18Very rarely do I meet
01:06:20a woman like you,
01:06:22so this is all very new.
01:06:28I'm not sure if I'm ready
01:06:30yet.
01:06:32That was really nice.
01:06:36I feel like I just want to sit closer to you.
01:06:40Come here.
01:06:42Want to come right here?
01:06:50I feel like I want to kiss you now.
01:07:00Come here.
01:07:20As Ella and Mitch's wedding night
01:07:22winds down, and Ella's
01:07:24doubts melt away,
01:07:26the chemistry between them is only
01:07:28building up.
01:07:36It feels really nice kissing you.
01:07:40We're definitely vibing, 100%.
01:07:42We're getting along.
01:07:44And she's gorgeous,
01:07:46she's stunning, she's beautiful, everything.
01:07:52I was pretty sceptical going into this.
01:07:54I didn't really think that
01:07:56the experts had eaten them,
01:07:58to be completely honest.
01:08:02But they proved me wrong.
01:08:10Let's make a move.
01:08:20It's been a great day.
01:08:26You tired?
01:08:30Are you?
01:08:32No.
01:08:34Okay.
01:08:44And as they travel towards the bridal suite,
01:08:52only one question remains.
01:08:54Yes, I want to jump his bones.
01:09:00That was good.
01:09:02But, you know, I've got rules.
01:09:08Usually it's a three-day rule.
01:09:10Yeah.
01:09:12No sex.
01:09:14Just for a few dates.
01:09:16Get me a hot shower, eh?
01:09:18What do you usually sleep in?
01:09:20Do you sleep in pajamas?
01:09:22No.
01:09:24I'll be fine.
01:09:26Have faith in me.
01:09:28Um, I think...
01:09:30I can't wait to see him with his shirt off.
01:09:32I think I'm going to be like...
01:09:34There.
01:09:48Oh.
01:09:50He's obviously very good looking.
01:09:52Fit, healthy, like, takes care of himself.
01:09:54So you're a hair person?
01:09:56No, not excessive.
01:09:58Okay.
01:10:00Maintained, but this is like zero.
01:10:02I don't have anything.
01:10:08This is a date, right?
01:10:10The wedding counts as a date, right?
01:10:16Can I have a kiss before we go to bed?
01:10:18You can.
01:10:26I'm really trying my best.
01:10:28Yeah, I might need a cold shower.
01:10:32I'll be fine.
01:10:34All right.
01:10:36I think...
01:10:38I'm done.
01:10:42We'll do it, like, with both hands.
01:10:44Ready?
01:10:46Three, two, one, boom.
01:10:48Teamwork.
01:10:50Today is everything I hoped and wished for.
01:10:52I feel like I'm watching two old Italian couples
01:10:54like an old couple.
01:10:56Just trying to feed like their 14 children.
01:10:58Jesus Christ.
01:11:00Following a romantic evening in a rustic setting...
01:11:02We broke it.
01:11:04...Domenica still hasn't told Jack
01:11:06about her recent divorce.
01:11:08I think Jack and I have great potential
01:11:10and we have all of the right things there
01:11:12to make this relationship work.
01:11:14But I feel like I've had a big thing
01:11:16hanging over me all day.
01:11:26Just look picturesque.
01:11:28Yeah.
01:11:30Quintessence.
01:11:32Yeah, it's our first moment, I guess,
01:11:34that we've had alone so far.
01:11:36I'm scared to tell him about my divorce
01:11:38because I do kind of...
01:11:40I do like him. It's a big deal.
01:11:42Like, I don't know how I'd react if someone said
01:11:44that they were married before, like,
01:11:46and how it would make me feel deep down, you know?
01:11:48He might say it's all right, but maybe deep down
01:11:50he's like he doesn't want someone that's been married before.
01:11:52I don't know. It's really nerve-wracking.
01:11:54Obviously, like, I was pretty worried
01:11:56about, like, opening up to you and stuff
01:11:58because you are a stranger.
01:12:00But, you know, I came into this experiment
01:12:02and I want to be as open and honest as possible
01:12:04about my past.
01:12:08Yeah, I've been married before
01:12:10and divorced.
01:12:12You know, I was in a four-year relationship
01:12:14and I was married for two months.
01:12:16Two months?
01:12:18So I was really worried to open up to you about it
01:12:20because I didn't know how that, like,
01:12:22you would react.
01:12:28What happened? Is that okay for me to ask at this point?
01:12:42I came into this experiment and I want to be as open
01:12:44and honest as possible
01:12:46about my past.
01:12:48Yeah, I've been married before
01:12:50and divorced.
01:12:52You know, I was in a four-year relationship
01:12:54and I was married for two months.
01:12:56Two months? Sure.
01:12:58Yeah.
01:13:00So I was really worried to open up to you about it
01:13:02because I didn't know how that, like, you would react.
01:13:08What happened?
01:13:10Is that okay for me to ask at this point?
01:13:12I wasn't happy
01:13:14and I wasn't happy six months before I got married
01:13:16and I shouldn't have gone through it,
01:13:18but I did.
01:13:22That's fair.
01:13:24Look, to be totally honest with you,
01:13:26I could never...
01:13:28It would be inappropriate for me to judge someone
01:13:30on someone's past.
01:13:32Everyone's going to have a past.
01:13:34Everyone's going to have something,
01:13:36but that's where you learn.
01:13:38I've only known you for a very short period of time,
01:13:40but, like, you realise that's, like...
01:13:42You know, you being that honest
01:13:44and just, like, you're in this
01:13:46doesn't bother me at all.
01:13:48I don't see anything negative about any of that.
01:13:50I really don't.
01:13:52Okay, good.
01:13:54That was the reaction I was hoping for,
01:13:56but I just don't want you to think that,
01:13:58you know, oh, it got tough
01:14:00and I just walked away,
01:14:02because it's not like that.
01:14:04That's fine.
01:14:06You realise that's, like...
01:14:08That's the hardest thing to do.
01:14:10It shows you sort of feel for other people.
01:14:12No, we weren't married. Yes, we were together for four years,
01:14:14and I knew we weren't working
01:14:16for probably the last, like, 12 months,
01:14:18but didn't say anything, and it's just that, like...
01:14:20Because you don't want to hurt people, right?
01:14:22So, yeah. I'm totally fine with it.
01:14:24I really am.
01:14:26To be honest, that was really nice.
01:14:28Jack's response was honestly
01:14:30just what I was wanting.
01:14:32That was the past, and this is going to be
01:14:34the future of us. He made me feel at ease.
01:14:36He didn't judge me.
01:14:38I hope it wasn't too much of a bombshell, like...
01:14:40No, of course not, but it was for you.
01:14:42And that's important. Like, you know,
01:14:44if it's big for you, then it's
01:14:46going to be big for me. We're married.
01:14:48That's the point of this, you know?
01:14:50Alright. Oh, my gosh. Deep breath.
01:14:52Yeah. You feeling better now? Yeah.
01:14:56Was that a little bit hard? Yeah.
01:15:00I never imagined that I'd be standing here
01:15:02and I'd be so happy as I am.
01:15:04Like, I just really can't believe that the experts
01:15:06got it right. I'm happy.
01:15:08I'm stoked.
01:15:10I was really scared
01:15:12of moving on, meeting someone,
01:15:14you know, committing
01:15:16myself to someone again, and
01:15:18giving my all to someone, but
01:15:20today was a huge
01:15:22puzzle piece that was missing from me
01:15:24in order to heal.
01:15:26Like, full throttle,
01:15:28let's go, I'm ready.
01:15:30Let's go home.
01:15:32Yeah.
01:15:38I had a fertility test.
01:15:40I was in the bottom
01:15:423%.
01:15:44Two desperate hearts.
01:15:46I've never experienced
01:15:48unconditional love.
01:15:50Give the experiment
01:15:52everything they've got.
01:15:54I never thought I would be 36
01:15:56without a husband and a baby.
01:15:58But...
01:16:00I'm so happy!
01:16:02Will their new husbands...
01:16:04This could be the father of my children.
01:16:06I'd be grateful for one.
01:16:08Two would be nice.
01:16:10Do you see yourself having kids?
01:16:12I would assume that we're having a baby.
01:16:14Um, I've just met her.
01:16:16New Mary, tomorrow
01:16:187.30 on Nine.
