Married At First Sight fans have blasted the show a “complete joke” after cheaters Matt and Whitney were allowed to remain on the show.
Matt, who was married to Gemma, and Whitney, who was married to Duka, had secretly engaged in a romance behind their partners backs, before admitting their connection over a dramatic dinner with the other couples.
The pair snook off and kissed and their rejected partners were left in the dust, despite their best efforts to make their marriages work.

The two stunned fans further by asking the show’s counsellors if they could remain on the show as a couple and finish the experiment.
The therapy team, which includes sex therapist Charlene Douglas, psychiatrist Mel Schilling and matchmaker Paul C Brunson, were seen having serious talks with the couple and expressing their dismay at the pair’s behaviour, telling them it was “unacceptable.”
However, they revealed that science had shown them to be a good match and ultimately decided to allow them to remain on the show as a couple, not a married couple.
Viewers immediately took to social media to react, with many slamming the decision.
“This is what we have been waiting for. These two should not be allowed back into the experiment. These two need to be off the show,” blasted one viewer.
“Nah they’re messing let Witney and Matt stay??? They never let carolina and dan stay?? Makes a complete joke of the whole process!” another penned.
“Shout to anyone who believes everything that happens on #MarriedAtFirstSight is completely organic and not all planned in advance. This is a JOKE!” said a third.
While a fourth blasted: “#MAFSUK WOW! disgusted they have allowed witney and matt to continue….shame on you! Your supposed to be relationship experts….what happened to morals and respect? completely puts me off watching.”
Upcoming scenes will show the pair re-enter the show as a couple to mixed reviews from the rest of the contestants.
A teaser clip showed opinionated contestant Thomas looking disgusting at their attendance.
Elsewhere in the episode, Jonathan finally apologised to Sophie after his controversial comments about her weight.
The couple have been battling a slew of drama since the comments, where Jonathan was seen telling Sophie he wouldn’t be attracted to her if she gained weight.
On tonight’s episode the pair appear to be working through their issues and agreed they were finally in a “good place.”
