00:00:00Oh my gosh, it's such a dream up here.
00:00:05What more can you ask for?
00:00:06Just thank you so much, I really appreciate it.
00:00:08Gorgeous.
00:00:09You're welcome.
00:00:10What a way to start the day.
00:00:11I am really excited.
00:00:12What was that?
00:00:13You want a kiss from me?
00:00:14Love you.
00:00:15Love you.
00:00:16Now, kiss for her.
00:00:22Love you.
00:00:23Love you.
00:00:32Finally got my fiance to Primrose Hill.
00:00:38Enjoying the views.
00:00:39Beautiful.
00:00:40Enjoying the company.
00:00:41Life is good.
00:00:46I can feel that, I can feel that coming to me.
00:00:51I'm pretty nervous about today.
00:00:53Maybe it's because my world coming into...
00:00:56..to yours, in a way.
00:00:57Colliding. Yeah.
00:00:59Yeah. How about you? How are you feeling?
00:01:01I don't know. I started off in the morning saying,
00:01:03letting go of the outcome,
00:01:05and I'm, like, back to square one of, like...
00:01:08Of, like, uh-oh. Yeah, I don't know.
00:01:10Yeah, a bit nervous. Yeah.
00:01:11I mean, a bit is an understatement, if I'm honest. Oh, really?
00:01:14Do you know when you're so nervous that you're kind of almost, like...
00:01:17A bit sick? Yeah.
00:01:18I think it's more the unknown of how it's going to go, you know?
00:01:21Yeah.
00:01:22It was difficult leaving the pods.
00:01:26Cos I lost, obviously, you.
00:01:28So I went to Germany.
00:01:31I think it was tough for my mum and sister to see me like that.
00:01:34I was pretty upset.
00:01:35HE CLEARS HIS THROAT
00:01:36You know? It was, like, really tough.
00:01:39Tough few days.
00:01:41Um, and they may bring that up. Mm.
00:01:45I've never felt more nervous about meeting a person's family
00:01:50and relatives.
00:01:52I hurt them.
00:01:54So I'm expecting a grilling about Sam.
00:01:57Are you ready?
00:01:58No, I'm not ready, actually.
00:02:00Ready? Do you want to...? Yeah?
00:02:02I know he values his mum's opinion.
00:02:04I know he values his sister's opinion.
00:02:06Hello, straight.
00:02:08Obviously, they care, they're coming from a protective place.
00:02:11Hi, good to see you.
00:02:13I feel like, personally, it's a make or break.
00:02:17Hello. How are you?
00:02:19Begate, Esther.
00:02:20Make it a squiggle.
00:02:22HE CLEARS HIS THROAT
00:02:23Nicole, meet mum and sister.
00:02:25Nice to meet you guys.
00:02:26Nice to meet you. They have names.
00:02:28Gabby and Eliza. OK, Eliza.
00:02:30Gabby. Here we go.
00:02:32Would you like to take a seat?
00:02:34We'll get started on this feast. Yes.
00:02:37Lovely. Thank you.
00:02:39Yeah.
00:02:40Baked from scratch.
00:02:41Help yourselves.
00:02:43Crack on.
00:02:44Help yourself. What do you want?
00:02:47I think I'll start with the tuna thingy.
00:02:49What was that? Tuna? That's a good question.
00:02:51Is it this hat?
00:02:53I can go for one of these.
00:02:56How have you two been?
00:02:58Good. Yeah.
00:03:00You know, like, yeah, I've been, like,
00:03:02yeah, I mean, surreal, huh? Yeah.
00:03:04The whole experience has just been...
00:03:06I mean, you know, because I came back from the pods, you know?
00:03:08Yes, you did.
00:03:12I thought, oh, no, what happened?
00:03:14It was really, wasn't it? It was just, oh, Mum.
00:03:17And, you know, when all the emotions come out?
00:03:23He couldn't eat.
00:03:25We've never seen him in a state like that, have we?
00:03:27No. No.
00:03:30He just thought, so, have I done the right thing
00:03:33and I just wanted to do right for you?
00:03:36And I'm thinking, oh, gosh.
00:03:41I think there's some level of me,
00:03:43I need to take some ownership here to apologise.
00:03:46You know, I don't want to feel like anyone has any disgruntlements
00:03:49or any reservations about me.
00:03:52Putting aside Ben, you know,
00:03:54I don't want to feel like I've done anything wrong.
00:03:58Putting aside Ben, like, it was clear to me
00:04:01it just wasn't right with Sam.
00:04:04It wasn't a good situation. I don't think it was healthy.
00:04:08I think it's hard. You do probably see that as well.
00:04:11Now you know Ben is the right one.
00:04:14I want to know more about you.
00:04:16Don't ask me about anything.
00:04:18Go on, anything.
00:04:20Was there any previous relationships?
00:04:22I'll be honest, I was married before.
00:04:25Were you? Yeah.
00:04:27And that was three years ago.
00:04:29So, since then, I've stayed single for three years.
00:04:33Yeah, I can understand that. Working on myself.
00:04:35It's been such an intense experience.
00:04:37Have there been arguments, or has it been plain sailing?
00:04:40Do you want to answer?
00:04:42I think you clapped on both.
00:04:44No, there's been... Yeah.
00:04:46It's been mainly about...
00:04:49..I think Sam's situation.
00:04:52Oh.
00:04:56You look so sheepish.
00:04:58I had to say what I had to say to him.
00:05:00I had to call him out. You can't keep things in.
00:05:03And then he said a few more not-so-nice things about you.
00:05:06Yeah.
00:05:07You saw through him straight away, really, didn't you?
00:05:10Yeah. Yeah.
00:05:12Hearing how he is from Ben,
00:05:14didn't you have in the back of your head,
00:05:16oh, maybe he's not as genuine?
00:05:20Yeah, no, I...
00:05:22No, I did, I did.
00:05:24The Sam thing, I think there's an element
00:05:26of still different experiences with him.
00:05:30Which probably affect me more than they affect you.
00:05:33I don't want to go into the details,
00:05:35but I know, I know, I know the guy.
00:05:38I know what I saw of him.
00:05:40Probably seeing that little bit of good that might be there.
00:05:44And just want to get rid of the situation and move on, isn't it?
00:05:47And then maybe you should do the same.
00:05:49Move on from it. Yeah.
00:05:52You learn more, we learn so much from those conflicts.
00:05:55You can only get stronger from it, really. Exactly.
00:05:58We're both very, I think, analytical and look at,
00:06:01and, like, assess everything.
00:06:03But how do you know he's the one?
00:06:05I think, for me, what I realised in Ben was that
00:06:10he always wants to be a better version of himself,
00:06:13and that's, to me, very special, you know?
00:06:16And I've never had anyone look out for me the way he has.
00:06:21What was the proposal like?
00:06:23Which one?
00:06:25THEY LAUGH
00:06:27Which one?
00:06:28Too soon, guys, too soon.
00:06:30Too soon! Too soon!
00:06:32It's so good, too soon.
00:06:34Right, go on. Go on.
00:06:36Too soon.
00:06:37I've never seen him like this, even with ex, like, partners.
00:06:41Never. Yeah.
00:06:43It's refreshing. Yeah, it is. It's a good sign.
00:06:46You guys...
00:06:49It's amazing what a scone can do.
00:07:05I have to say, you guys look so together, though.
00:07:07You did it, you really did it.
00:07:09I did.
00:07:10I thought you'd be really, really pale.
00:07:12Really pale. I have just been on holiday.
00:07:15What do you do for a living? I don't know what you're asking.
00:07:18Why are you laughing? What? What's funny?
00:07:20Why is that funny? What should I not ask? Is it something?
00:07:23No, I'm a funeral director.
00:07:25Funeral... Sorry, what's that?
00:07:27Funeral... A funeral director?
00:07:29OK, fine, yeah.
00:07:31Yeah. Yeah. Fine.
00:07:33Yeah.
00:07:34Although, you know, in that industry, is it all a bit...
00:07:38No, I love my job. Sad. Sad, yeah.
00:07:40No, it's not sad, obviously.
00:07:42Obviously, yeah, I'm looking after, you know,
00:07:45people during the most difficult time of their lives.
00:07:48It is sad, but you've just got to support the family, so...
00:07:51I think that's why you are the way you are, like, part of you.
00:07:54No, it probably is, yeah. It takes a certain human.
00:07:57How's wedding planning going?
00:07:59Stressful.
00:08:01Yeah, you're not getting stressed? I get so stressed.
00:08:04No, it's going to be... It'll be a nice day regardless.
00:08:07Do you feel, in your heart and your head,
00:08:09do you feel that's what you guys want?
00:08:11You want to get married?
00:08:12Or is there a few things that you want to work on first?
00:08:15I might actually let you answer that.
00:08:17Well, yeah, pretty good first. Yeah, so, yeah,
00:08:19obviously I've formed this connection with Kat,
00:08:22and, yeah, I do love her.
00:08:24And ultimately, yeah, I do want to marry the girl.
00:08:27Aw. Yeah.
00:08:28Are there any doubts at the moment?
00:08:31Erm, doubts are just that we are different
00:08:34in some aspects as well, I think.
00:08:36Erm, I feel like I'm a bit more chilled than Kat,
00:08:39and I know Kat tells me,
00:08:41oh, you know, I'm not about going out
00:08:43and going to bougie places and doing all this.
00:08:45I say I go to bougie places. No, I know, but that...
00:08:47I say I go with the girl. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:08:49Like, that's, like, our treat. Bougie brunches.
00:08:51Yeah, like, that's what we do. Yeah.
00:08:53And don't get me wrong, I love going out, you know,
00:08:55for a meal every now and then. But you don't drink,
00:08:57and you don't go out. Yeah, I'm not like...
00:08:59So do you think Kat is high-maintenance?
00:09:01Yeah, I do a little bit, yeah. I think she is a bit, yeah.
00:09:04Yeah.
00:09:06I do worry that our lifestyles are a little bit different.
00:09:09Is that OK, though?
00:09:11Because if, say, you think Kat is, like, that way,
00:09:13is that OK? No, I don't think so,
00:09:15because I think that I would not satisfy her.
00:09:20I worry, like, stuff you say sometimes.
00:09:22I know you've said, oh, yeah, I've been here,
00:09:24I've been there, and I've been to this club,
00:09:26and I've done this, I've been to Ocean Beach,
00:09:28I've done this, and I'm thinking,
00:09:30I've never, sort of, dated a girl like that.
00:09:33A girl like that? Yeah.
00:09:35It's annoying, because you have lived with me now for quite a while,
00:09:38and you think I eat in, like, no-boo every day.
00:09:40I don't know what that is. Do you know what?
00:09:42I'll give you some advice, Freddie. I think stop worrying,
00:09:45because Kat doesn't do it every day.
00:09:47And this is the first time you have vocalised
00:09:49this whole materialistic side of me.
00:09:51I don't live this life. Yeah.
00:09:53And it's starting to piss me off.
00:09:59Like, if you're doubting this now, like, you're going to doubt it,
00:10:02in months' time. Yeah.
00:10:04I'm proving myself day in, day out,
00:10:06and I feel like you're literally now picking on me.
00:10:12Do you want to get another drink as well?
00:10:14Yeah, I'll grab one, yeah. Thank you.
00:10:21So...
00:10:23Opinions?
00:10:25I think he seems like a really nice guy.
00:10:28Um... He's worrying a lot, isn't he?
00:10:31Yeah. We're talking about, obviously, you know,
00:10:33when we get married, if we get married,
00:10:35and he's decided he wants a prenup.
00:10:39Really? Really.
00:10:44Should I be worried?
00:10:46For me, it's a bit controlling.
00:10:48Really? Yeah.
00:10:50Yeah.
00:10:53Maybe it's because you're still quite early days. Yes.
00:10:57He said the house would go to his sister.
00:10:59Oh, really? So what's in the contract, though? That's the thing.
00:11:02If you do a prenup, so everything will go to your sister.
00:11:05So you're effectively screwed.
00:11:07But in the prenup, you've got nothing of you in there.
00:11:10I don't think so. I don't like that.
00:11:12You don't like that? No. Have you seen it?
00:11:14No, I don't like that. No.
00:11:17Say, like, in 20 years' time,
00:11:19you're absolutely happy married, love the guy.
00:11:21Yeah, I'm screwed. You've got two kids.
00:11:23Can you change a prenup? No.
00:11:25That worries me, that you never know what life brings at you, and...
00:11:29I'm always going to be your next show.
00:11:31Do you think that's a sign, then,
00:11:33that he's already thinking about potentially separating?
00:11:37He's planning...
00:11:39It's giving it an easier option, isn't it? Yeah.
00:11:44That's just made me, like, my head is, like...
00:11:48I don't know.
00:11:51Despite that little blip, like,
00:11:53he is, like, you know, he is...
00:11:55I've never met a guy like him, like, genuinely.
00:11:57He is brilliant.
00:11:59But are we planning a wedding together, or are we not?
00:12:03Like, are you going to say I do, or are you going to say I don't?
00:12:06I think you both just need to reassure each other, it sounds like,
00:12:09to see if you're on the same page,
00:12:11cos at the moment, I think you're on, like, completely different boots.
00:12:16The two of them look absolutely gorgeous together,
00:12:18and I think he's actually a really lovely guy, Freddie.
00:12:21I would 100% be supportive of the relationship,
00:12:24but could he match her lifestyle?
00:12:28You know, Kat is not a house hermit, and I felt he very much was.
00:12:32He's very much, like, sit at home, beans on toast sort of thing.
00:12:36You know, what's your heart telling you, Kat?
00:12:38Can you see a future with him?
00:12:40And I just think in my heart that it probably won't work, I'll be honest.
00:12:45It means a lot, like, your lives are both coming out.
00:12:50I was just hoping that you two would see in her what I see in her.
00:12:54I think she'd now switch with you, Pike. Yeah.
00:12:56She's just so lovely, she's honest.
00:12:59She's got so many wonderful qualities.
00:13:02Easygoing, open, lovely smile.
00:13:05She's just so sweet.
00:13:07Yeah.
00:13:09She's got so many wonderful qualities.
00:13:11Easygoing, open, lovely smile.
00:13:14She gets your approval, the seal of approval.
00:13:17100%, 110%.
00:13:19Cool, now I can breathe.
00:13:21It's almost like we're relieved as well, you know,
00:13:25and seeing you so happy now.
00:13:27There's that happiness in there.
00:13:29Yeah, that fire alive again.
00:13:31Yeah, and that as a mother, that is just...
00:13:33Couldn't be stronger.
00:13:35Aw.
00:13:37Yeah, good luck to you both. Thank you.
00:13:39From the bottom of my heart. Aw.
00:13:41Bye, I love you, Mum. I love you too.
00:13:44It's not long now until the wedding,
00:13:46and the further along we get, the better, the lighter I feel
00:13:49with everything going forward, as potentially husband and wife.
00:13:53OK.
00:13:55Talk to Mum a bit.
00:14:03When he came back to Germany,
00:14:05and it hadn't gone the way he wanted it to,
00:14:09that hurt seeing how he was.
00:14:12I've said to her in the past as well, with exes,
00:14:14I was like, I knew she wasn't the right one for you.
00:14:17But with you, I've got a good feeling.
00:14:19Really? I do.
00:14:21Do you? Oh!
00:14:23Thank you so much. No, I'm afraid. Thank you.
00:14:26Honestly, it makes me feel so much better
00:14:29that you have confidence in his decision.
00:14:31I mean, I don't know you, but I feel like I do.
00:14:34Thank you. Oh, me too.
00:14:37I honestly love him so much. Yeah, and I can see that as well.
00:14:41You put his needs first as well,
00:14:43whereas sometimes, in the past, his needs haven't been met.
00:14:47Cos he is a nomad, like, he can't stay still.
00:14:50We never know when he'll be back.
00:14:55Ben's family gave me the validation I need
00:14:59to tick another stumbling block for me saying I do.
00:15:03You know?
00:15:05A lot of people are, oh, he has to settle down.
00:15:08They don't understand that that's his lifestyle.
00:15:11I don't know if he could change it.
00:15:15But I'm conscious of the mistakes
00:15:17that were made from my first marriage.
00:15:19That's what I'm afraid of.
00:15:21Like, can he really commit to marriage?
00:15:25To what extent will he feel trapped?
00:15:30I am very protective of him.
00:15:35And I've seen him get hurt a lot.
00:15:38Yeah.
00:15:40But if you both feel it's right, then go for it.
00:15:46Yeah, we won't, won't give, give up
00:15:52We fight on
00:15:58We fight on
00:16:03Big day today, huh?
00:16:05Are you looking forward to meeting my family?
00:16:07Yeah. I can handle it.
00:16:09I know you can.
00:16:11You're going to pass that test with flying colours, I already know.
00:16:14Yeah, of course.
00:16:16Yeah, we won't, won't give, give up
00:16:21All right. You look good.
00:16:23Thank you. You too. Sexy.
00:16:25Thank you. Love the dress.
00:16:27You feeling nervous?
00:16:29For the first time, I am feeling slightly nervous.
00:16:32I know it's a big night. I know how important your mum is to you.
00:16:35What about you? I mean, I am quite nervous.
00:16:37Purely for the fact that she's very protective over me.
00:16:40She's quite sceptical.
00:16:42She just wants to know that.
00:16:44Yeah, for the genuine reasons.
00:16:46And I know you are, but you need to tell her that.
00:16:50Yeah.
00:16:52The one thing I am certain of is, you know, my feelings towards you.
00:16:55And our connection.
00:16:57I guess what I would say about my mum is she's a straight shooter.
00:17:01I mean, even growing up, I never introduced anyone to my mum.
00:17:04You know, this is the mum that used to go through my call log
00:17:08and call each and every single mobile number.
00:17:12And if it was a boy, she would block them on my phone
00:17:15and tell them to never speak to me again.
00:17:17She may say some things that are a bit hurtful at times,
00:17:21but that's just how she is.
00:17:23She wants to make sure that the person that's going to be my husband
00:17:26is going to be looking after me.
00:17:30Listen, my mum's like an FBI detective, MI5, the whole nine.
00:17:35So she would have done a full background check.
00:17:37She'll, like, analyse body language.
00:17:39But we can't hide shit.
00:17:41Let's just be real. Let's be honest with where we're at,
00:17:44what our plans are for the future, cos she'd want to know that.
00:17:47I'm feeling a little bit worried.
00:17:49This is being a big build-up.
00:17:51I know that it's a huge moment,
00:17:53especially knowing how much she wants to protect Jasmine.
00:17:56I've got to really make sure that I don't mess it up.
00:17:59Of course, I know that I'm not here to hurt you.
00:18:02But now I get why she's going to ask the difficult questions.
00:18:05MUSIC PLAYS
00:18:14MUSIC CONTINUES
00:18:23KNOCK AT DOOR
00:18:25Sister!
00:18:27Hello. Come on in.
00:18:29Hello. I'm really looking forward to seeing my sisters today.
00:18:32They're awesome and I'm sure they're going to get on with Maria really well.
00:18:35You only bought one bottle? Yeah.
00:18:37Onya and Megan are both my dad's kids, so they're my half-sisters.
00:18:41So their opinion means a lot to me.
00:18:43They've met a few of my exes over the years,
00:18:45some of which they've liked and some of which they haven't.
00:18:48Hi! Nice to meet you.
00:18:50Hi, nice to meet you.
00:18:52Aw! These are my sisters!
00:18:55Yeah, you guys all right?
00:18:57Yeah. Yeah? Yeah.
00:18:59Where do you want me?
00:19:01Um... You two go there, I'll go there.
00:19:04Thanks for the wine. Yeah, thank you.
00:19:07I need a glass now.
00:19:09Are you hungry? Do you want to eat straight away?
00:19:12Happy to, yeah. Depends on what you've cooked.
00:19:15There you go. This is delicious pasta baked.
00:19:18Thank you. Thanks.
00:19:22There you go, dear.
00:19:24Ooh, first things.
00:19:26Maria and this family, we actually say grace.
00:19:28No, we don't. And I would like you to lead the prayer.
00:19:31Shut up! There we go.
00:19:33So, you were dating behind this pod thing?
00:19:37We've been talking to each other every day for, like, two weeks, you know.
00:19:40I just think the whole thing is crazy. Yeah, it is crazy.
00:19:42It is crazy, for sure.
00:19:44When I say to people, like, oh, you know, you fell for someone
00:19:46behind a wall, and they're like, what? That's crazy.
00:19:48And I'm like, but I think that's really lovely.
00:19:50Like, you fell for someone for the right reason.
00:19:52But did you think that before you did it? Yeah.
00:19:54Oh, you did? OK. Yeah, no, I thought falling for someone
00:19:56without seeing what they look like
00:19:58is, like, the nicest aspect of everything.
00:20:00What drew you to each other, then?
00:20:02It sounds so cliche, but I just feel like we had a connection.
00:20:05Yeah. It's not, like, tangible,
00:20:07but it's just sort of, like, how you feel when you go in there.
00:20:09No. I felt really comfortable with you,
00:20:11and you made me laugh. Yeah.
00:20:13Would you say love is blind? Yeah.
00:20:17I went into it with a lot of cynicism,
00:20:19but it has been, like, life-changing.
00:20:22Mm.
00:20:23We've had a couple of disagreements and stuff,
00:20:25quite big ones, but...
00:20:26Disagreements about, like, just general things, or, like...
00:20:31I feel like I've been raised a certain way,
00:20:33and so I expect, like, a man to behave in a certain way,
00:20:36especially in the beginning of a relationship.
00:20:38And so, like, the first time we ever went out... Mm-hm.
00:20:42..we went to get ice cream, and Tom was comfortable with me paying,
00:20:45and I felt like I saw that as, like, our first date in the real world,
00:20:49like our first little outing.
00:20:51You said you just didn't think about it. No.
00:20:54That's exactly, I think, what the situation would be. Yeah.
00:20:58It just didn't pop into your head. No.
00:21:00It's just an ice cream.
00:21:02I hate to say this, but I think it's the case for a lot of people
00:21:07with my culture and our background,
00:21:09the men is always sort of seen as the provider.
00:21:11Maria's Muslim and her family as well, like, that's very new to me.
00:21:14Yeah. Mm-hm.
00:21:15And I need to make sure that my husband
00:21:17is going to be able to look after me and the children,
00:21:20and that's how my dad was, that's how all my uncles have been,
00:21:23so... Yeah.
00:21:24..that's when I need to make sure that you have us.
00:21:27So, the whole living together, do you see that working?
00:21:31At first, we spoke about me moving into Tom's place. Yeah.
00:21:34But I am not 100% comfortable paying someone else's mortgage,
00:21:39if I'm being completely honest.
00:21:43Are you...? Yeah. What? Are we going to talk about that?
00:21:47You never know what's going to happen.
00:21:49Like, if we're together for four, five, six years and then we end,
00:21:52I've just ended up paying, like, a huge amount of his mortgage,
00:21:55and do you know what I mean? It's like, happy days, see you later.
00:21:58Maria's saying, you know,
00:22:00she doesn't want to contribute to Tom's mortgage.
00:22:02I kind of understand that,
00:22:04but then maybe that's her saying that she has doubts in her mind.
00:22:08You can't marry someone without knowing where you stand
00:22:11with those financial things.
00:22:13Money is the statistical reason why most people divorce.
00:22:16My view on the money stuff is, like,
00:22:18we're not compatible on, like, the basic lifestyle stuff.
00:22:22You know, it's about equality. Mm.
00:22:24The worry is that that's quite a big thing,
00:22:26and there'll probably be other big things
00:22:28that we haven't had the time yet to address. Yeah.
00:22:30I think we're good with, like, in terms of that kind of stuff. Yeah.
00:22:33We've been very realistic.
00:22:35It wouldn't be a relationship if we were just good all the time.
00:22:38Exactly. Yeah. I don't know.
00:22:40Obviously, you've both chosen to go into this for a reason,
00:22:43and I hope it works out. Thank you. Thank you, mate.
00:22:46You seem very natural, and I love you. I think you're great.
00:22:49Oh, honestly. Oh, mate.
00:22:51No, seriously, like...
00:22:53I just want to say cheers to family.
00:22:55It's genuinely the most important thing in your life, you know?
00:22:58The wedding is fast approaching, and there are a lot of hurdles,
00:23:01you know, around our values, particularly the finance stuff.
00:23:04You know, I want to be absolutely certain.
00:23:06And I know she does as well.
00:23:08We love each other, and it means so much to both of us, so...
00:23:12Cheers. Cheers.
00:23:14Cheers.
00:23:31Hello.
00:23:33Hi.
00:23:35Hi, darling.
00:23:37Hi, Freddie.
00:23:39Hi.
00:23:41It's really good to see you.
00:23:43Come on in.
00:23:45So here we are.
00:23:47You've seen me now. Yeah.
00:23:49Come through, come through, come through.
00:23:51I'm really excited that my family are coming today.
00:23:53A lot rides on this.
00:23:55I'm hoping when Freddie meets my parents, it's clarity.
00:23:59Freddie needs to work out if he's 100%.
00:24:02I don't want him to have these doubts coming so close to the wedding.
00:24:05And if there's no connection with my parents,
00:24:08I don't know what to do.
00:24:11And if there's no connection with my parents and Freddie,
00:24:14then that's a deal-breaker on both sides.
00:24:16Today's a big day.
00:24:18Is Freddie what you thought he was going to be like, looking like?
00:24:22No. No.
00:24:23It's funny how you build a picture in your head.
00:24:25What did you think? I don't know.
00:24:27I always imagine blonde hair. I don't know why.
00:24:29Everyone said that. Everyone said skinny blonde guy.
00:24:31You still happy I'm in the experiment?
00:24:33Yeah. I mean, you seem happy, hopefully.
00:24:36You look a lot happier. You both seem...
00:24:38A lot happier. Yeah. Cos I'm not living it up.
00:24:41Thank you. We love you.
00:24:43I'm not doing the dishes every five minutes.
00:24:46I know I do miss that.
00:24:50Whilst we're on the subject, what was she like when she was a kid?
00:24:53What was she like growing up?
00:24:55She was always a very happy child.
00:24:57Never one to... I can't just sit down?
00:24:59No. You'd never find her in a corner reading a book anywhere.
00:25:02She was active. That's the word, yeah.
00:25:05But then she had lots of... Activity.
00:25:07Yeah, cos you were on your own. You were an only child, weren't you?
00:25:10Kat had a bit of a different upbringing to her,
00:25:13the generic way, I guess. Like, she was adopted.
00:25:16The thing that amazed me, when we went to pick Katherine up,
00:25:21I thought, gosh, this poor baby's not going to know who we are.
00:25:24Is she going to be OK? You know, will she take to us OK?
00:25:28Cos she was still 11 weeks at that time
00:25:30and she just didn't stop smiling.
00:25:32And that was it. She never stopped.
00:25:34She was a perfect baby. She was really good.
00:25:36Perfect. Perfect baby. Perfect. Perfect baby.
00:25:39We don't know what happened.
00:25:43So, obviously, you know, we just want her to be happy
00:25:46and want the best for her.
00:25:48Of course you do.
00:25:49How are you finding it all?
00:25:51You know, I sort of come into it thinking, you know,
00:25:54I hope to find somebody,
00:25:56but I didn't realise I'd feel all these emotions.
00:26:01So, I met Kat and we formed this deep connection.
00:26:04Through a wall. Yeah. Yeah, so that fascinates me.
00:26:07Since the pods, we've had ups and downs.
00:26:09I have to tell the truth, we have.
00:26:11We have had, like, little disagreements.
00:26:13Yeah, we've not argued. We've not argued.
00:26:15That's normal, isn't it? It's not arguments,
00:26:17it's just totally different people. Yeah.
00:26:19I just want to be 100% sure for Kat... Mm.
00:26:22..that I'm ready to sort of say, yeah, I do.
00:26:26You were worried that you're not good enough
00:26:28and you're worried that, like,
00:26:29your lifestyle and my lifestyle are different.
00:26:31Yeah, you know, initially... Which is not true.
00:26:34There's a few things that I need to sort of work on
00:26:37and clarify in my mind before... Violent things.
00:26:40I just want it to be right, I want to be 100%,
00:26:43I don't want to get divorced. Yeah.
00:26:45It's a big leap. Yeah. It is.
00:26:48But you will never know the outcome.
00:26:51It's a chance you take.
00:26:53I just want it to be perfect, I want it to be right. Yeah.
00:26:56It's a great goal.
00:26:57I mean, I feel better now I've met you.
00:27:00Oh, 100 times better. Cos I just wanted to see...
00:27:02Oh, that's nice. Yeah, I do.
00:27:04I just feel I just wanted to see how we were together.
00:27:07Yeah, that's good.
00:27:08If you're both happy, cos that's obviously really important.
00:27:12And how do you feel about us?
00:27:14I think, for me, it's really important that you have a relationship with...
00:27:17I wanted a relationship with yourselves as well. Yeah.
00:27:20So that's really important to me, yeah.
00:27:22Oh, that's good. That's good. I'm pleased.
00:27:25I'm just trying to be honest throughout,
00:27:27but I know that me being in this limbo of I don't know,
00:27:30I know it's hurting her.
00:27:32And that's why I'm trying to sort of push to one side the wedding
00:27:37and just focus on us.
00:27:38I've always believed in what's in your heart
00:27:42is the most important thing.
00:27:44You have to follow your heart, not the head.
00:27:47Yeah.
00:27:48How do you feel in your heart?
00:27:51Erm, yeah, I'm happy.
00:27:53Yeah, I'm happy. I feel...
00:27:55My feelings for Kat are real.
00:27:57I do care a lot about her.
00:27:59She means a lot to me.
00:28:01The emotions I've developed with her are true.
00:28:04Oh, good.
00:28:05Yeah, so I want you to know that whatever happens, you know,
00:28:08throughout our relationship, I promise that I love her
00:28:11and I'll be there by her side if she wants me to be.
00:28:14So, yeah.
00:28:16I'll be honest with you.
00:28:18For marriage, you have to work as a team.
00:28:21Yeah.
00:28:22They're never easy.
00:28:23Yeah.
00:28:24Never easy.
00:28:27I've been married 35 years.
00:28:29Yeah.
00:28:30So you have to be open, open-minded all the time.
00:28:33Yeah.
00:28:34And that's what's so fun about marriage.
00:28:36Yeah.
00:28:37Kat's mum and dad are really nice.
00:28:40I'm just happy they like me
00:28:42and it's sort of like I've been welcomed as part of the family.
00:28:45I'm learning more and more about her
00:28:47and I have taken on board what her dad said
00:28:50and it's given me the reassurance
00:28:52that I want to pursue my life with her and see where it leads.
00:28:55Just enjoy every day.
00:29:00Your personalities remind me so much of Dad and I.
00:29:03I literally said this.
00:29:05Emotion on her.
00:29:06It's just relief, I think.
00:29:08It's just so nice to see you both
00:29:10because he reminds me so much of...
00:29:13He's very laid-back like your dad, isn't he?
00:29:15I've been saying that.
00:29:16And I'm the one that will worry about things
00:29:18and your dad says, oh, you know, it's...
00:29:20So I get the reassurance from him.
00:29:22So that's how I look at the two of you and think...
00:29:26Mm.
00:29:27..I think you'd be good together.
00:29:29Yeah.
00:29:30You've got a good blend.
00:29:31When Freddie says no at the Ultra,
00:29:33and I'm very unaware,
00:29:35I don't know if I could move past that.
00:29:37I think that's going to be hard.
00:29:39I hope this has helped,
00:29:41but, like, it's just putting me on edge.
00:29:43I want to be excited for the wedding...
00:29:46Yeah.
00:29:47..but I don't know if there's going to be one.
00:29:49You've got to let him have that space to think about it
00:29:52and he'll come to the right decision.
00:29:54I'm definitely going to take on my mum's advice.
00:29:56Now that he's met my parents, I feel uplifted.
00:29:59I see myself getting married to Freddie
00:30:01and I want to go down that aisle saying I do,
00:30:04but I need to just step back
00:30:06and let him do it without the pressure
00:30:08and just let it happen,
00:30:10because I think that it will happen
00:30:12if it just happens organically.
00:30:15Do you vision him at home on a Sunday?
00:30:18Yeah, I can. Yeah.
00:30:20Can you? Yeah.
00:30:21And you're welcome to our mad family any time.
00:30:24Of course.
00:30:26Aw.
00:30:27She's a good girl.
00:30:30You and I, we go together
00:30:33If not forever, give me one more day
00:30:36You and I, we go together
00:30:39Ah, ah, ah, ah
00:30:42KNOCK AT DOOR
00:30:48Hello!
00:30:50Hello!
00:30:52SHE LAUGHS
00:30:54Hi!
00:30:56Aw!
00:30:58Aw, I've missed you!
00:31:00I've missed you too!
00:31:09Don't cry.
00:31:11Aw, so nice to meet you.
00:31:13How are you doing?
00:31:15Hi.
00:31:16Oh, nice to meet you.
00:31:17Welcome. Come in.
00:31:18You look gorgeous, mum. Thank you.
00:31:20Yeah, you look stunning.
00:31:22So are you. Yeah.
00:31:24Do you want to come in?
00:31:27Now I know where Jasmine gets her good looks from.
00:31:32I've been really looking forward to meeting you.
00:31:35I don't know what to say.
00:31:37I don't know what to say. Don't worry.
00:31:39I'm, like, shocked. Yeah, yeah.
00:31:41I'm in a shock.
00:31:43Don't worry.
00:31:45Are you hungry?
00:31:47I am hungry. Yeah, good.
00:31:49But I probably won't be able to eat much.
00:31:51OK. Shall we sit down?
00:31:56Perfect.
00:32:03All right, here we are.
00:32:05So, what made you think that,
00:32:07oh, this is the girl for me?
00:32:10Well, when I came into this experiment,
00:32:13I mean, I was looking for a certain type of woman,
00:32:16you know, a woman that was sweet, caring, honest,
00:32:19a good listener,
00:32:21somebody that had values, you know,
00:32:23somebody that understood me.
00:32:25And Jasmine is that woman, so...
00:32:27Wow. I don't know.
00:32:29I have mixed feelings.
00:32:31Obviously, there are fears.
00:32:34Do you see yourselves going to be together forever?
00:32:39For me, that's what this marriage is, you know.
00:32:44How about past relationship?
00:32:47How many girlfriends did you have?
00:32:50Not that many serious relationships.
00:32:52Yeah. My last one...
00:32:55No.
00:32:58How's your education, Bobby?
00:33:01So, when I was in school,
00:33:03I struggled really to kind of concentrate,
00:33:06so I ended up not going to university.
00:33:09But in this day and age,
00:33:11not a lot of people go to university anymore.
00:33:13I know, but it's better to be with a person
00:33:17with a good educational background.
00:33:20Sometimes, it's very difficult
00:33:23to communicate with a non-educated person.
00:33:29I'm very, very protective.
00:33:31I don't want her to get hurt again.
00:33:35Most men, every time they meet another woman,
00:33:39you know, it changes their perspective,
00:33:42their want, their likes, changes all the time.
00:33:46I know what you mean.
00:33:47You know, men can be a certain way.
00:33:49And I've watched my mum go into really poor relationships,
00:33:53you know, with the wrong types of men.
00:33:55So that's the last thing that I want to be.
00:33:57Cos it's not nice.
00:33:59Heartbreaks are not nice.
00:34:02Trust is gained at the end of the day.
00:34:05I've been through two failed marriages,
00:34:09and I don't want Jasmine to go through that.
00:34:14So what's the future plan?
00:34:17So the plan is...
00:34:18Cos you live far away.
00:34:20Yeah.
00:34:21You can't do that.
00:34:23I'm going to move to London.
00:34:25And you work?
00:34:26So I'm working remotely.
00:34:28London price is so expensive, Jasmine.
00:34:31I can make good money from sales, so I don't think...
00:34:34I think we can afford it.
00:34:36You can afford it?
00:34:38Definitely.
00:34:40So I'm not worried about that.
00:34:42And we're open to, in the future, maybe we will go abroad.
00:34:45I think that's a good thing.
00:34:47Abroad, but how about the family?
00:34:51I'm very much involved.
00:34:54I've always been involved with Jasmine.
00:34:57We talk like sisters, and I said,
00:35:00if you have secrets, tell me first, not your friends.
00:35:03I am your friend.
00:35:05I am the best friend in the world.
00:35:08I am your friend.
00:35:09I am the best friend that you could ever have.
00:35:12She never hides anything from me.
00:35:16But I think going forward, though...
00:35:18Yeah.
00:35:19I don't want to be telling you,
00:35:21oh, Bobby and I had an argument because of the dishwasher.
00:35:24No, but you have to tell me.
00:35:26100%, but not every single...
00:35:28No, but not every single argument,
00:35:29because that's going to put you off of him.
00:35:31And he's going to be the father of, you know,
00:35:33your future grandchildren.
00:35:35We can't be doing these things
00:35:36where I'm telling you every single argument.
00:35:39Because you'll just bring it up again.
00:35:42No, I think you have to tell me.
00:35:44You have to tell me everything.
00:35:50I'm very worried.
00:35:52It seems so short to know a person and get married.
00:35:57The time is not enough to say
00:36:01that I'm in love with that person.
00:36:05It's not good.
00:36:08Jasmine, are you sure?
00:36:12Oh, yeah, I'm sure.
00:36:15It's going to be difficult, though.
00:36:20I respect her choices.
00:36:22However, words of warning...
00:36:27Be very loyal.
00:36:30And if there's something that, you know, secret...
00:36:35Everybody has secret.
00:36:39Don't ever, ever lie to me.
00:36:57Me and Marissa, I feel like it's the last hurdle
00:37:00that we need to get over before getting to that big day.
00:37:04This is a lot, and I'm really getting a grill in here.
00:37:07I'm hoping that I'm passing the test.
00:37:09But if we are going to make this work,
00:37:11there's going to have to be some boundaries in place.
00:37:13This is going to be mine and Jasmine's marriage,
00:37:16and not Marissa's.
00:37:20He makes me feel happy. Why can't I be happy?
00:37:23I want to choose happiness.
00:37:25How long will that last?
00:37:28I don't want you to make the same mistakes that I have.
00:37:34Obviously, growing up, I haven't really witnessed
00:37:36a very healthy, you know, mother and father marriage.
00:37:40I've also experienced a lot of failed relationships
00:37:43where, you know, I haven't felt loved.
00:37:45I guess this time around, it feels like everything feels right.
00:37:49I'm not wanting anything more from him.
00:37:52He's already providing that for me without even me saying it.
00:37:56You're not getting carried away.
00:37:58No, but I know I'm making the right decision.
00:38:01You know how interfering, but at the same time,
00:38:04I'm very protective. You mean well.
00:38:06I mean well.
00:38:11Why am I so emotional?
00:38:24And your children. Yeah.
00:38:26You're going to have future children.
00:38:28I don't want them to experience this.
00:38:32Crying.
00:38:34You remembered when you were young.
00:38:37I don't want them to have those memories in their mind.
00:38:42I just want you to be happy.
00:38:44I am happy.
00:38:46Jasmine means the world to me.
00:38:48She is my support.
00:38:50She's my best friend.
00:38:52She is everything to me.
00:38:55I will always be here to support you, whatever.
00:38:58No matter what happens.
00:39:01I want the best for her.
00:39:24How crazy is this?
00:39:26I can't believe we're doing this.
00:39:28Hello. Oh, my gosh.
00:39:30Hi.
00:39:32I'm really excited to pick a dress.
00:39:34Every day is becoming more serious,
00:39:36and this is, like, the second biggest day.
00:39:38So it's a magical day.
00:39:40Oh, my gosh. Thank you.
00:39:42Honestly, I'm on the edge.
00:39:44Hello.
00:39:46Hello.
00:39:48Hello.
00:39:50Hello.
00:39:52Hello.
00:39:56That was a lovely welcome.
00:39:58How are you all?
00:40:00Having a good rummage through the dresses?
00:40:02Yes.
00:40:06Hello, hello, hello.
00:40:08I heard somebody was getting married.
00:40:10Yes.
00:40:18What have you got in your head?
00:40:20I want, like, a sexy, romantic,
00:40:22rouge type, but I do want, like,
00:40:24a Princess Diana type veil.
00:40:26I want it, like, dramatic, long.
00:40:28Dramatic and sexy?
00:40:30Yeah, that's the vibes.
00:40:32I want a fishtail.
00:40:34I'm going to walk.
00:40:36My dad walks slow anyway.
00:40:38Tell him to get his stretchers in.
00:40:40Don't you dare wear your sliders.
00:40:42I'll be a bow tie, that would be class.
00:40:44Everyone's asking me, like, are you scared, are you nervous?
00:40:46I'm like, not really.
00:40:48Fuck this.
00:40:50A bit of a breakdown, right?
00:40:52Yeah.
00:40:54What's triggered that?
00:40:56Yeah, maybe she snaps at me or something,
00:40:58and I'm thinking, like, I don't want this.
00:41:00I'm still in a position, I feel like,
00:41:02I've not made my mind up 100%.
00:41:04I met Jasmine's mum last night.
00:41:06Oh, really? Wow.
00:41:08That was intense.
00:41:10Definitely gave me a good grilling, as expected.
00:41:12That's gorgeous, but it's short in the front.
00:41:14OK, guys, I'll try on a puffy dress,
00:41:16so I can dine.
00:41:18I think that's stunning.
00:41:20That one's a definite try on.
00:41:22Shall we have a little chat, guys?
00:41:24Shall we come in?
00:41:26Today we're going to get you suited and booted
00:41:28so you look absolutely on point for the big day.
00:41:30There's a lot of you, isn't there?
00:41:32I do feel slightly scared.
00:41:34Not scared, but I'm kind of imagining
00:41:36how your other halves have felt
00:41:38whilst meeting your friends and family.
00:41:40I mean, they must have been terrified.
00:41:42Pauline, it's quite a lot to take in,
00:41:44isn't it?
00:41:46The whole process is something else,
00:41:48and I'm not calm. I might look calm.
00:41:50But I'm an emotional wreck.
00:41:52I mean, you look amazing, and you look calm.
00:41:54I'm so happy for her.
00:41:56Don't start.
00:41:58No, don't make me cry,
00:42:00cos I don't have any tissues.
00:42:02Marissa, I hear you've literally
00:42:04just got here from the Philippines.
00:42:06Yes.
00:42:08So you arrived yesterday, and then you met Bobby
00:42:10straight away.
00:42:12How did that go?
00:42:16Oh!
00:42:18I'm a little...
00:42:20I think it's normal to be worried,
00:42:22cos I'm a very
00:42:24protective mum.
00:42:26I raised this girl well,
00:42:28and I'm proud of her.
00:42:30Aw!
00:42:34Erin, great to see you again, mate.
00:42:36So now you know Ollie and Demi.
00:42:38So how do you feel like their relationship is blossoming?
00:42:40Obviously, speaking to Demi
00:42:42in the pods, and then being with Ollie
00:42:44all the time in the lounge,
00:42:46they're both live wires,
00:42:48so there's definitely going to be some fireworks,
00:42:50but they're good ones, do you know what I mean?
00:42:52So I think that he's ready for an unbelievable journey,
00:42:54and they're a match made in heaven.
00:42:56Nice. Good words. I agree, I agree.
00:42:58Live up to that. I appreciate you, man.
00:43:00Benaiah, good to see you again, mate.
00:43:02You look very calm. You look very ready.
00:43:04I mean, it helps having Nicole
00:43:06on my arm. You know, she's been great for me
00:43:08all the way through this, very supportive,
00:43:10so I'm feeling comfortable and confident.
00:43:12Great. I feel it. I feel it.
00:43:14Guys, in this experiment,
00:43:16you chose to get engaged
00:43:18and spend the rest of your life
00:43:20with someone you'd never actually met.
00:43:22After dating blindly,
00:43:24you formed a bond based solely
00:43:26on your emotional connections.
00:43:28Since then,
00:43:30you've had a romantic getaway,
00:43:32you've moved in together,
00:43:34and your wedding day is around the corner.
00:43:36So will you be saying
00:43:38I do to the man that you got
00:43:40engaged to, sight unseen,
00:43:42or will you choose to walk away
00:43:44forever?
00:43:46Are you ready to decide,
00:43:48is love truly blind?
00:43:50Yeah. Yeah.
00:43:52Yes, there we go, there we go, there we go.
00:43:54I really hope it is, boys. I wish you all the best.
00:43:56I'm going to leave you now so that you can all
00:43:58have some family and friend time,
00:44:00and good luck with everything.
00:44:02Got everything crossed for you all.
00:44:04Choose your suits wisely.
00:44:06Believe me, choose your suits wisely.
00:44:08All the best.
00:44:16The most important thing,
00:44:18we laugh every day. We have a laugh every day.
00:44:20She allows me to wind her up,
00:44:22which is important.
00:44:24Yeah, that's good.
00:44:26Today is a super important day.
00:44:28It's the last big thing we do
00:44:30before we walk down the aisle.
00:44:32I'd be ready to say I do
00:44:34because I truly think I've met
00:44:36my life person.
00:44:38Here she comes.
00:44:48Wow.
00:44:50So beautiful.
00:44:52Oh my God. I thought you were going to cry.
00:44:54I love her.
00:44:56It all still feels very surreal.
00:44:58It's not quite
00:45:00quite real life yet,
00:45:02but every day I feel a little bit more
00:45:04and more confident about Stephen and I.
00:45:06Having the dress, I think that
00:45:08kind of really...
00:45:10Yeah, sets it.
00:45:12This is what I'll be wearing on my wedding day.
00:45:14Well, Stephen is a very lucky man.
00:45:16Very lucky.
00:45:18I'm very lucky too, though.
00:45:20Oh, she's awful.
00:45:22I am 100%
00:45:24ready to say I do. I feel really, really good.
00:45:26Really happy.
00:45:30Wow.
00:45:40Wow.
00:45:42I love it, honestly. I just feel
00:45:44really sexy as well.
00:45:46It's Benaiah.
00:45:48Do you know what I mean? Every time I think about him,
00:45:50that's what makes me feel really
00:45:52safe in doing this. There's no one else
00:45:54that I would be doing this for, honestly.
00:45:56Do you feel at peace with him?
00:45:58I genuinely do. I didn't even think
00:46:00I'd want to get married again, you know?
00:46:04There we go.
00:46:08I wish you all the best and good luck.
00:46:12I'm excited for this now.
00:46:14You should be excited. It's lovely.
00:46:16We're going to have fun today.
00:46:18No, we will. I'm so excited you three are here as well.
00:46:22Right at the start of this process,
00:46:24we were talking about what marriage means to us
00:46:26and I was like, well, an opportunity to celebrate
00:46:28your love for each other.
00:46:30I really want to make the most of this
00:46:32and give it the best shot that we can
00:46:34and this today is the longest that we've spent apart
00:46:36from each other in three weeks.
00:46:38How do you feel about that?
00:46:40Really missed her today. Massively.
00:46:50Oh, wow.
00:46:52Isn't she gorgeous?
00:46:54Mashallah.
00:46:56Mashallah.
00:46:58Stunning.
00:47:00Beautiful.
00:47:12You're so beautiful.
00:47:18It's so important to have my friends and family.
00:47:20The three people sat out there,
00:47:22they've shaped me as a person,
00:47:24they've helped me through my hardest times.
00:47:26You look so grown up.
00:47:28Oh, sissy.
00:47:32Being in this dress has definitely made things
00:47:34more real for me and it's definitely
00:47:36given me more clarity as well
00:47:38and I feel like that's exactly what I needed.
00:47:40I love it.
00:47:42I feel incredible. Good.
00:47:44I want him to see it already.
00:47:46Wow.
00:47:48Today's like that happy day where you realise
00:47:50that, actually, he's amazing.
00:47:52It's just not something I'm used to.
00:47:54How he is as a man, it's just...
00:47:56And I mean that in the nicest way possible.
00:47:58How he is with me, I'm not used to it
00:48:00and everything that he is is
00:48:02actually exactly what I do need.
00:48:04I might be crying and look like a mess
00:48:06but I feel really good.
00:48:08Can't tell.
00:48:12Blubbering mess.
00:48:20Aw!
00:48:22What do you think, princess?
00:48:24You like it?
00:48:26It accentuates your curves.
00:48:28You think so? Yeah.
00:48:30It's stunning, like it suits your figure perfectly.
00:48:32Are the sequins not too much?
00:48:34No, it's perfect.
00:48:36That's you.
00:48:38I was going to say, if you were a dress, this is it.
00:48:40This is it, Jaz. This is so you.
00:48:42We need to make sure Bobby cries.
00:48:44Bobby's going to cry. Bobby's going to be speechless.
00:48:46His jaw is on the floor.
00:48:48His jaw is on the floor.
00:48:50That's the kind of vibe we want.
00:48:52I think he's going to be speechless.
00:48:54It's been a long time coming.
00:48:56I think the most important thing is,
00:48:58you know before Bobby,
00:49:00I felt so at peace with myself.
00:49:02I felt so happy.
00:49:04And then having him, he's brought me even more peace.
00:49:06It's your time to shine.
00:49:08She's so beautiful.
00:49:10My daughter,
00:49:12wearing that dress,
00:49:14she looks like a stunning bride.
00:49:16She shines through.
00:49:18I think every mother would feel
00:49:20like the way I feel
00:49:22because that's my daughter.
00:49:24And I always want the best
00:49:26for my daughter.
00:49:30This day here
00:49:32is the biggest day of your life.
00:49:34Yes, I got the flyest I've ever looked in my life.
00:49:36You know what I mean?
00:49:38Well, she genuinely makes me so happy.
00:49:40Like, honestly,
00:49:42I know it sounds cheesy, but just waking up to her every day,
00:49:44I don't care what we've got on that day,
00:49:46I know I'm going to have a good one.
00:49:48You know what I mean?
00:49:50Whether we're going for a date,
00:49:52whether we're just going to stay indoors all day,
00:49:54I know I'm about to have a good time.
00:49:56And that's what you need out of a partner
00:49:58because not every day is going to be
00:50:00five-star resorts in Greece.
00:50:08Oh, my God.
00:50:10I'm sorry that I didn't put any heels on, ladies.
00:50:12But I'll save that for the wedding day.
00:50:14Oh, my gosh, Demi.
00:50:16I love it.
00:50:18You look so...
00:50:20We're used to watching you play football.
00:50:22Yeah.
00:50:24We support you for your boxing fight.
00:50:26Can I just say...
00:50:28To see you, like...
00:50:30Honestly, Demi, you look amazing.
00:50:32A million dollars, honestly.
00:50:34I feel like a bit of a princess.
00:50:36Girl's back,
00:50:38and actually she's new and improved, I'll be honest with you.
00:50:40We can see it.
00:50:42We've got some, like, things to work on, you know,
00:50:44cos the booty be busting out.
00:50:46Like, walking in and you see, like,
00:50:48these beautiful women who are petite,
00:50:50you're like, oh, crap, maybe I shouldn't eat that, don't.
00:50:52Like, honestly, it's actually so bizarre
00:50:54that I was in that headspace at one point in my life
00:50:56because that doesn't define me.
00:50:58I'm actually very confident, I'm actually a very confident person.
00:51:00If I didn't go through this experiment
00:51:02and this experience, I would keep doing that
00:51:04and actually that's not healthy.
00:51:06Insecurities, seriously, get rid of them.
00:51:08It's just ridiculous.
00:51:10You are beautiful inside and out.
00:51:12You are an amazing person.
00:51:14And me and Daddy created such a wonderful girl.
00:51:16Yeah.
00:51:18You did, you did.
00:51:20But you also showed me what a really good marriage is as well.
00:51:24Like, I literally, I've said that from,
00:51:26I'm very fortunate, there's not a lot of people
00:51:28that have role models like I have.
00:51:30And, like, I look up to you and Dad.
00:51:32I look up to, like,
00:51:34what true love is.
00:51:36You set the example of how to love
00:51:38and that's what I want.
00:51:42This dress is fire!
00:51:44I feel like
00:51:46this has been a rollercoaster ride
00:51:48and along the way I've just trusted the process
00:51:50and the things are aligning.
00:51:52I've got Oli, I've got a loving family.
00:51:54I mean, have you seen my dress?
00:51:56I'm ready to get married to anyone.
00:51:58No, I'm joking. I'm joking, Oli, don't show that to him.
00:52:02Anyway, can I get off it because I'm sweating
00:52:04I'm so emotional.
00:52:08So I'm thinking of, like, maybe
00:52:10traditional tuxedo, which is really good.
00:52:12I think the tux is perfect, you can't go wrong with it.
00:52:14Really smart, shiny shoes.
00:52:16I wear a frock coat in work
00:52:18so I don't want anything like that,
00:52:20nothing long, you know.
00:52:22Stay away from that.
00:52:24Yeah, stay away from that, yeah.
00:52:30Aw!
00:52:32Aw!
00:52:34You look beautiful!
00:52:36Oh my goodness, it's stunning.
00:52:38You look stunning.
00:52:40Are you crying?
00:52:42It's beautiful.
00:52:44I'm so happy to be standing here
00:52:46and say, you know,
00:52:48Freddie's the one.
00:52:50He is a life changer
00:52:52and he's going to be
00:52:54part of the family, for sure.
00:52:56Today I feel really confident
00:52:58about my wedding day, about getting married
00:53:00and picking the dress.
00:53:02It's like every little girl's dream.
00:53:06How's the relationship going? Literally, I love the girl.
00:53:08She's amazing, I'm so happy I've met her.
00:53:10So, we have bickered a little bit
00:53:12and we've raised concerns of each other
00:53:14but I think that's just normal, that's just being realistic, I think.
00:53:16Can we just rewind on the love?
00:53:18What do you mean?
00:53:20I've never heard you actually say you love anyone.
00:53:22No, OK, so I do love the girl.
00:53:24I do love the girl. That's amazing.
00:53:26Like, she's absolutely unbelievable.
00:53:28She's an amazing person.
00:53:30This connection I have is insane.
00:53:32It's just the commitment, like, right now, isn't it?
00:53:34It's massive.
00:53:36I've known Freddie for a long time.
00:53:38He's always someone that's been in relationships
00:53:40and taking his time, but the experiment
00:53:42with Freddie's been really, really good.
00:53:44He's been given a wedding date
00:53:46and from what he's telling me about Kat
00:53:48and the person she is and how he feels about her,
00:53:50I think they can make it work.
00:53:52Here's to the big day.
00:53:54Thank you, girlies.
00:54:02I've got you on my mind again
00:54:06Like a rollercoaster ride
00:54:08I can't stop dreaming of that summer we've had
00:54:12Swimming out against the tide
00:54:14Can't get you out of my mind
00:54:16Here we are.
00:54:18English Spring Yard.
00:54:20Seems pretty perfect for our last big date.
00:54:22It's a picturesque final date spot
00:54:24and so to share that with Sabrina
00:54:26is really a perfect moment.
00:54:30Give me a kiss.
00:54:40This is what we've been talking about since the pods.
00:54:42The day of me whooping your butt.
00:54:44You are writing checks that you cannot cash.
00:54:46I mean, me and Ollie are quite competitive,
00:54:48so, ideal date.
00:54:50Arcade is a winner for me.
00:54:52Today's I love you, but guess what?
00:54:54Today is not that day.
00:55:00Oh, look at this.
00:55:02It's so cute.
00:55:04Have you been in a bar before?
00:55:06No.
00:55:08This state setting is phenomenal.
00:55:10Benaiah looks so good too.
00:55:12Us two being together,
00:55:14it just feels really right.
00:55:18Hubby.
00:55:22I know your answer.
00:55:34How are you feeling now then
00:55:36about the wedding?
00:55:38I feel really good. I really do, yeah.
00:55:40How are you feeling? Do you feel any pressure?
00:55:42No.
00:55:44Getting all our loved ones in one room
00:55:46and then it's all about us.
00:55:48Sounds like my perfect day to be honest with you.
00:55:50I honestly think it's going to be so much fun.
00:55:52Like, I think it's going to be like one big party.
00:55:54I'll be nervous
00:55:56up until the virus.
00:55:58After that,
00:56:00the shoes are off and the dance moves are coming out.
00:56:02That'll be the first time you see him as well.
00:56:04Mmm.
00:56:06We need to figure out a way to get this show me then
00:56:08before I say yes.
00:56:10I've heard about these legendary dance moves.
00:56:12I've seen some dance moves.
00:56:16I'm excited now.
00:56:18Obviously, the final countdown is on.
00:56:20Mr and Mrs Smith, I honestly think it sounds so good.
00:56:22I'm here for it.
00:56:24Have you been practising your I do's?
00:56:26Really?
00:56:28I do. I do. I do.
00:56:30Let's see what happens in the day.
00:56:32Oh, God.
00:56:34Scratch his head.
00:56:36Take a deep breath.
00:56:38Love you.
00:56:48Yeah.
00:56:50Let me show you how to
00:56:52Let me show you how to be a woman
00:56:54You know that you're not so pretty
00:56:56This is really hard, isn't it?
00:57:02What are you making?
00:57:04What are you making?
00:57:06I don't know. I'm just feeling it first.
00:57:08I'm just going to have to get used to it.
00:57:10Oh, no!
00:57:12That's because I was trying to help you.
00:57:14Look what I've done to my ball.
00:57:16Start again.
00:57:20I've had iPods for, like, ages.
00:57:22It's mad.
00:57:24When I close my eyes and I hear your voice,
00:57:26it brings back so many memories.
00:57:28I still find it mind-blowing.
00:57:30Yeah, it's crazy.
00:57:32I'm confident in it.
00:57:34At the start, I was like,
00:57:36God, this is too good to be true.
00:57:38But now I'm like, it's not.
00:57:40Trying on the dress yesterday,
00:57:42it just hit me.
00:57:44That dress is for you.
00:57:46That dress is for our wedding.
00:57:48When I found the dress,
00:57:50my mum's jaw,
00:57:52it hit the floor.
00:57:54She couldn't talk.
00:57:56She was just crying her eyes out.
00:57:58Having Dot there as well,
00:58:00it was just amazing.
00:58:02She's so excited.
00:58:04Good. That's nice to know.
00:58:06You must have been happy, though,
00:58:08because you were with your friends.
00:58:10Yeah, it was nice to chat to my mates.
00:58:12He did say that he'd never heard me say
00:58:14that I loved somebody before,
00:58:16which is, I guess, up the back of it.
00:58:18Really?
00:58:20That's what he said.
00:58:22He said, I've never heard you say that before.
00:58:24Stuff like them little things
00:58:26makes me so happy.
00:58:28It's literally brightened me up already.
00:58:30That's what I need to hear.
00:58:32My love for you has only
00:58:34got deeper. Of course it has.
00:58:36I just want you to have the reassurance
00:58:38knowing that I love you
00:58:40and that the connection we have is real.
00:58:42I just feel lucky
00:58:44that I still wake up to you every day
00:58:46and I'm like, oh, my God, that's Freddie.
00:58:50I wake up and I'm like,
00:58:52don't wake her up, don't wake her up.
00:59:06Oh, my goodness.
00:59:10If I lose,
00:59:12I will shave my beard off.
00:59:14You're going to go clean shaven for the wedding?
00:59:16Actually, let's everyone slow down a minute.
00:59:18If I lose, you're going to shave your beard off.
00:59:26I'm having a blunder, I'm having a blunder.
00:59:32No, hold on, hold on.
00:59:34I came in here not really fully trusting the experiment.
00:59:36I came in here thinking, who knows,
00:59:38we'll see. If nothing else, it'll be a good time.
00:59:40And then, obviously, having met Demi
00:59:42has changed everything.
00:59:44She's genuinely just a joy
00:59:46to be around. She genuinely just makes
00:59:48the day brighter, like whenever we're cooking in the kitchen
00:59:50together or we're lying in bed, there's never a dull
00:59:52moment. It's always magic, it's always
00:59:54fireworks.
01:00:00I definitely want a lifelong partner,
01:00:02but I want a best friend before that.
01:00:04And looking at Oli, I'm like, yeah, I've found my
01:00:06best friend.
01:00:08Oli just
01:00:10makes me happy, and
01:00:12our love has definitely grown deeper.
01:00:14Oli, Oli, sad kiss.
01:00:16Come and have a sad kiss.
01:00:18I want that kind of love,
01:00:20and I want that kind of marriage, and I want
01:00:22to be able to bring children up into a happy household.
01:00:24Do I think Oli's the person that I
01:00:26could do that with? Yeah, I do.
01:00:36And every time
01:00:38we play those games,
01:00:40we just collide together.
01:00:42Ah, can I take your bag, babe?
01:00:44Yes, please. Thank you.
01:00:50This is our last day together.
01:00:52I know. Ever.
01:00:54We are literally getting married in a few days.
01:00:56I don't
01:00:58feel
01:01:00nervous.
01:01:02Me neither. Yeah.
01:01:04I feel like this is the best I've felt through
01:01:06the whole thing. It's crazy.
01:01:08Sometimes I look at you, and I do think,
01:01:10I didn't know you two months ago. Do you?
01:01:12Yeah, this is wild. Yeah.
01:01:16Thank you so much.
01:01:20Shall we do a little cheersy-cheers? Yeah.
01:01:22Do you want to do it?
01:01:24Here's to us in the future. Us in the future.
01:01:26Look me in the eye.
01:01:28Oh, that's nice.
01:01:30Mmm. Mmm.
01:01:32That's nice. I'm really looking forward
01:01:34to our wedding day. So am I.
01:01:36How are you feeling about your brother
01:01:38giving you away? I'm so happy
01:01:40because the thing is, when people say,
01:01:42well, who's going to walk you down the aisle when you get married,
01:01:44it would always have been my dad and my brother.
01:01:46Even if my dad was still alive, it would have been
01:01:48dad and Heesham, because that's how important
01:01:50Heesham is to me. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:01:52You know, I struck gold when I got him
01:01:54as a big brother. He's amazing.
01:01:56Him and my dad are just the best men ever.
01:01:58Mmm. Ever.
01:02:00Obviously, pops can't be there.
01:02:02Yeah.
01:02:04Which is hard.
01:02:06Erm...
01:02:12Let's make sure we try and
01:02:14celebrate him as much as we can on the day, you know?
01:02:16Yeah.
01:02:18I definitely want to do a speech for him.
01:02:20We should...
01:02:22I have a little place for him at the table.
01:02:24Yeah. Erm...
01:02:26But, yeah,
01:02:28I definitely want to make him known.
01:02:30I am really, really lucky.
01:02:32Like, you know, at risk of sounding
01:02:34a bit cheesy, like, I see your beauty
01:02:36in every part of you.
01:02:38You know?
01:02:40I feel like I've learnt so much about myself.
01:02:42The things that I thought
01:02:44I should be ashamed of
01:02:46and, like, the things that I thought, like, that's not normal,
01:02:48like, don't do that.
01:02:50You very much taught me it's OK to be like that
01:02:52and you sort of welcome it
01:02:54with both arms.
01:02:56You've definitely helped me a lot.
01:02:58I do feel like we are closer now
01:03:00to marriage than we ever have been.
01:03:02Yeah.
01:03:04I agree.
01:03:06I can't wait to see where it goes with you, you know?
01:03:08No, me too.
01:03:10Love you.
01:03:12Love you.
01:03:14Got lipstick on my face.
01:03:16No, you haven't, actually.
01:03:18This is the one time in your life you don't.
01:03:20Do you want to have a go at this?
01:03:22OK, let's try, let's try.
01:03:24This could be an epic fail.
01:03:26Don't twist that.
01:03:32There we go.
01:03:34I've never been so nervous in my life.
01:03:36Will you be more or less nervous
01:03:38on a wedding day?
01:03:40I think this is the most actually nervous.
01:03:44So how are you feeling about the big day, though?
01:03:46The wedding day?
01:03:48This side of two years ago, I was like,
01:03:50never again.
01:03:52Really?
01:03:54Your previous marriage
01:03:56shouldn't deter what you think
01:03:58about marriage.
01:04:00So a relationship that didn't work out
01:04:02should be associated and linked
01:04:04to the person you're with,
01:04:06not marriage as a commitment
01:04:08or as a sacrament.
01:04:10That's what I struggled to detach from.
01:04:12Benaiah has challenged
01:04:14a lot of my beliefs.
01:04:16Because he's so committed
01:04:18to my growth
01:04:20and his growth,
01:04:22it inspires me to be better
01:04:24and to want to grow for both of us.
01:04:26I think there is something
01:04:28that I feel confident that you bring out in me,
01:04:30which is the ability to be childish
01:04:32and just...
01:04:34Be silly.
01:04:36And I really value that.
01:04:38I'm honestly feeling very, very
01:04:40blessed. When you care
01:04:42about someone, when you love someone,
01:04:44you have their back.
01:04:46There's no doubt in my mind that as a married
01:04:48couple, that you'd have my back. You'd be my rock.
01:04:50Aww.
01:04:52I genuinely mean it. I really mean it.
01:04:56I honestly love him so much.
01:04:58When I look at him, I really do see my future.
01:05:00He's incredible.
01:05:04I do love you a lot.
01:05:06I care for you and I protect you.
01:05:08And I'm so excited about us
01:05:10and what the future holds for us.
01:05:12And you're someone very close to my heart.
01:05:16I've been single for
01:05:1810, 11 years.
01:05:20I've wanted a serious relationship. I've wanted a life partner.
01:05:22But I didn't think I'd find it.
01:05:24Nicole proved me wrong.
01:05:26There's so many qualities that she has, which
01:05:28makes me see a very happy future with her.
01:05:30Yeah, I feel pretty lucky at the minute.
01:05:32I love you.
01:05:46Wow.
01:05:48Look at that for a view.
01:05:50Looking out now at the city,
01:05:52I'm so excited to be moving here with you
01:05:54and getting to spend my life here.
01:05:56It's going to be incredible.
01:05:58Being here with you
01:06:00for these past three weeks,
01:06:02for me, it's felt like home already.
01:06:04One thing that I'm certain of
01:06:06is you are everything
01:06:08that I'm looking for in
01:06:10someone that I want to spend the rest of my life
01:06:12with.
01:06:14I can definitely see myself being with you forever.
01:06:16I've always wanted to find a partner
01:06:18that wouldn't make me worry,
01:06:20that didn't make me feel anxious.
01:06:22And I find
01:06:24that feeling in you when I'm with you.
01:06:26You have that silent confidence
01:06:28that I've always looked for.
01:06:30With you, it's just been so easy.
01:06:32We're so comfortable with one another.
01:06:34It does literally feel like we've known each other forever.
01:06:36And I'll do my absolute best to make sure
01:06:38that I am the best man for you,
01:06:40so that I can make you the happiest woman in the world,
01:06:42because I think you really deserve it.
01:06:44I had to go through this experiment
01:06:46to grow,
01:06:48to realize things about myself,
01:06:50in order to be ready for marriage.
01:06:52There's no doubt in my mind
01:06:54that I'm going to have the most amazing future with Bobby.
01:06:56I'm just excited to start it.
01:06:58This love feels right.
01:07:00It feels safe.
01:07:02It feels eternal.
01:07:04That's more than anything,
01:07:06what this love feels like.
01:07:08I feel like I could spend the rest of my life with you,
01:07:10I don't know.
01:07:12I don't want to cry.
01:07:18Coming into this,
01:07:20I never expected to find
01:07:22somebody or something as special
01:07:24as what I've found,
01:07:26and I feel like the luckiest man in the world, honestly.
01:07:28I love everything about Jasmine.
01:07:30Love, to me, is
01:07:32the most magical feeling in the world.
01:07:34To have come on this experiment and to have found true love
01:07:36is the best thing that could have ever happened to me.
01:07:38I'm so excited to be spending
01:07:40the rest of my life with you.
01:07:42You're incredible, and I love you so much.
01:07:44I love you too.
01:07:54I've got you now, forever.
01:07:56Are you ready for that?
01:07:58Are you ready for me?
01:08:00My little firecracker.
01:08:08My little firecracker.
01:08:28Today, I make a real big decision.
01:08:30Is it I do, or is it like
01:08:32I do, but not for now?
01:08:38I'm lonely.
01:08:40I'm lonely.
01:08:42Do a taste for our past, our present,
01:08:44and our future.
01:08:46Oh, I'm gonna get really upset.
01:08:48I just don't want to get this last thing I want.
01:08:50You stole my mind
01:08:52and my heart, and now I give you
01:08:54my unconditional love.
01:08:56I know my answer. Don't know hers.
01:09:00I'm in two minds about today.
01:09:02Stressing, questioning, right decision,
01:09:04wrong decision.
01:09:06I know I will not be there to walk down that aisle.
01:09:08I've never
01:09:10loved someone like I loved Tom.
01:09:12I really wish my dad was here.
01:09:14Now is the time
01:09:16for you both to decide if love
01:09:18is blind.
01:09:20It would be an amazing match for me. There's absolutely
01:09:22no doubt about that. I love you.
01:09:24This journey has meant so much for both of us,
01:09:26and I know for a fact I wouldn't have done it with anyone
01:09:28else other than you.
01:09:30I just feel like I can't think straight.
01:09:32Do you take Ollie to be your
01:09:34husband? Maybe we're just not right
01:09:36as a couple. We're better as friends.
01:09:38I'm nervous.
01:09:40Gross. I can't keep
01:09:42doing this. It's too emotional today.
01:09:46I will never find a guy like him ever again.
01:09:50I just worry
01:09:52that you are on different pages.
01:09:54From the moment
01:09:56I heard your voice, I knew
01:09:58this was gonna be special.
01:10:00I love you.
01:10:02I love you, Carl.
