00:00:00began. This is probably the wildest, craziest thing I've ever done. And six Aussie singles
00:00:06put their faith in our matchmakers and married a stranger. I pronounced you husband and wife.
00:00:14I was kind of breathless for a little hot moment there, hey. Before leaving the world behind
00:00:18for 21 days. What we're doing is completely scary, but as soon as I turned around and
00:00:25saw her, I knew everything was going to be all right. To see if love can bloom in paradise.
00:00:32Oh my goodness, look at that! Or if their bad dating baggage will drag them out to sea.
00:00:39I'm starting to feel quite overwhelmed. I want to swim away. Three new relationships set sail,
00:00:45but Amy and Mike hit the rocks. I feel like there's a bit of a power struggle going on.
00:00:50No, I'm good. You know, I'm the man. Just chill out. I got this. I just wanted it to be Honeymoon
00:00:55Island, and I think it might be Nightmare Island. And a surprise crate delivered drama.
00:01:04Hello. There's my ex. I guess a bit of feedback. You know, you made me feel quite small.
00:01:14Coming up now, six new singles fed up with the toxic world of modern dating.
00:01:21I've been single for seven years. This is the last resort. Join the adventure. I'm ready to give this my
00:01:28entire all. I feel like this is a massive leap of faith. And get stranded on Honeymoon Island.
00:01:34I think it's inevitable that it's going to be a wild ride. For better. This could be something special
00:01:38here. Or for worse. This was the real world. I usually cut things off. Maybe even ghosts.
00:01:44Thousands of miles from home. Three newlywed couples are stranded on Honeymoon Island.
00:02:04And they'll have 21 days to see if a long-lasting relationship can form without any distractions
00:02:13from the modern dating world.
00:02:16The cocoa roll.
00:02:19Do you want it harder?
00:02:20That's another one.
00:02:21That's another one.
00:02:22Bring me your higher love.
00:02:27Shut your eyes.
00:02:31So good.
00:02:32For flight attendant Georgia and Bachelor Chad, the wedding day was a fairy tale come true.
00:02:44I have been engaged before and I've got my heart broken.
00:02:49But I still do believe that there are good men out there.
00:02:54Hello.
00:02:56How are you?
00:02:58Good. How are you?
00:02:59Good, good. You look beautiful.
00:03:02Amazing.
00:03:02Happy?
00:03:08Yes.
00:03:08Good, good.
00:03:10And on their second day of married life, these two lovebirds are in no rush to take their relationship
00:03:16to the next level.
00:03:20You're going to put some sunscreen on me now?
00:03:22Yep.
00:03:23No, we haven't had a little kiss yet.
00:03:25Yes.
00:03:25We're both just happy to, like, take it slow, even though we are married.
00:03:32I feel that we have an amazing foundation where we are building chemistry and connection from.
00:03:43So I'm happy to wait for a kiss.
00:03:45You have any more.
00:03:47You ever owned waterfront property?
00:03:57No.
00:03:57You have now.
00:03:57Yes.
00:03:58You have now.
00:03:59This is our first property together.
00:04:01Why not?
00:04:02We're homeowners.
00:04:02We are.
00:04:04For commitment-fought Brie,
00:04:06getting married and stranded with laid-back Sparky Byron
00:04:10was a huge adjustment.
00:04:12Remember, this is a common saying,
00:04:14if you're looking, it ain't cooking.
00:04:17Wow, look where we are.
00:04:20I'm starting to feel quite overwhelmed.
00:04:23I've never really been in a serious relationship before,
00:04:25so it's been a huge step,
00:04:26and that fear of commitment is definitely, like, kicking in.
00:04:31Wifey?
00:04:32I might need your hand.
00:04:34Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:04:35I don't know what's happened to Brie.
00:04:37I wonder if it's me.
00:04:39I think I'm just overwhelmed still,
00:04:41because this is wild and crazy,
00:04:43and I met you yesterday,
00:04:44and that kind of is a lot for me.
00:04:48I really just don't want to f*** it all up by being an idiot.
00:04:52I'm with, like, the perfect guy.
00:04:55But as their second day stranded together comes to an end,
00:04:59Brie is starting to realise that this experience is exactly what she needs.
00:05:04Nailed it.
00:05:06Fish is on.
00:05:07Shut up.
00:05:08Potatoes.
00:05:09Should we wash that?
00:05:10I'm going to give it a quick wash, and I'll wash this.
00:05:12I was going to go.
00:05:12Yeah, nice.
00:05:13Okay.
00:05:14Byron is such a nice guy.
00:05:16He's very sweet, very considerate,
00:05:19always asking if I'm okay.
00:05:21He's jumping it, helping me,
00:05:22and trying to make me as comfortable as possible.
00:05:25What are we going to do for breakfast?
00:05:28Um, I can make pancakes if you want.
00:05:32With potatoes?
00:05:35Coconut pancakes?
00:05:36Yeah.
00:05:37I'll figure it out.
00:05:39Like, I'm not used to nice guys and being treated nicely.
00:05:45The guys in my past don't do that,
00:05:47and there's always been a lack of commitment from both parties.
00:05:50Oh, my God.
00:05:53Get out.
00:05:54Get out.
00:05:55That looks amazing.
00:05:56Doesn't that look good?
00:05:57I'm impressed.
00:05:59Byron is definitely a catch.
00:06:01Yeah, this is probably, like, the best thing that could have happened to me,
00:06:04and these are happy tears.
00:06:07I'm really excited about the time we're going to have.
00:06:13Definitely, I feel like I'm, like, the luckiest girl ever right now.
00:06:19I got lucky.
00:06:20I got lucky.
00:06:31For Amy and Mike, 48 hours stranded together has quickly become the clash of the titans.
00:06:41And earlier today, a message from home brought things to a head.
00:06:46There's been a lot of things that you've done that have made me uncomfortable.
00:06:56Belittled the alpha male, the dominance.
00:06:58And I've felt, like, an underlying misogyny from you.
00:07:03And what was it?
00:07:05When we're cutting the wedding dress.
00:07:07Less is more, like, I'm not a piece of meat.
00:07:10I've never heard that from anyone before.
00:07:12Well, you're hearing from me now.
00:07:15Yeah.
00:07:15All right.
00:07:16I've never been called a misogynist in my life.
00:07:22That was a first.
00:07:24I'm all good to take accountability for stuff I've done.
00:07:28If it's made her feel bad, no problem.
00:07:31But I'm not a bad dude.
00:07:33I'm just trying to be chivalrous.
00:07:35Try and look after your guilt.
00:07:36That's what a man should do.
00:07:39I guess I have a big personality, a big sense of humour.
00:07:42And I don't mean anything from a bad place.
00:07:45He's got a big personality, too.
00:07:47And I think it's just trying to navigate that at the moment, which is very, very difficult.
00:07:52I know we're going to need to talk about a lot of stuff that happened today.
00:07:55Yeah.
00:07:57Some of that shit hurt my feelings.
00:07:59Yeah.
00:07:59And I felt real attacked.
00:08:00Misogyny is a big word to use.
00:08:04Okay.
00:08:05Well, I mean, that's what I've seen.
00:08:08And that's my truth.
00:08:09And that's what...
00:08:11Yeah, I mean...
00:08:11That's the feeling I've been getting.
00:08:13That's the vibe.
00:08:13And so I'm just letting you know that that's how I feel.
00:08:16Some of the points you said were just.
00:08:18They could have been dealt with in a different way.
00:08:20But it really upset me.
00:08:23Basically calling me a woman hater.
00:08:25And I'm like, whoa.
00:08:28No, that's...
00:08:29Oh.
00:08:30That one hurt the most.
00:08:32Look, I am sorry to bombard you.
00:08:34I get that that was a lot.
00:08:38I don't think I have to tap out for today.
00:08:40No, I...
00:08:41No, it's been a big day.
00:08:43Can I get you anything to eat?
00:08:45No, I'm good.
00:08:45Can I do anything to help you?
00:08:47No, I'm fine.
00:08:47I'm going to get some water and just get back to zen.
00:08:52Yeah.
00:08:54All right.
00:08:54Look, today's been a pretty hard day.
00:09:02I don't want this.
00:09:04Shit.
00:09:05We're here and, buddy...
00:09:07Yeah, we're here on an island.
00:09:09To find love.
00:09:10And...
00:09:11Now I don't know where I'm at.
00:09:14The best thing we can do is just call off and...
00:09:17Have some space.
00:09:18Now, it's time for three brand new couples to make the ultimate leap of faith.
00:09:29So, let's go back to where it all began.
00:09:34A speed dating event with a twist.
00:09:41Let's get the show on the road.
00:09:43Our six new castaways each took part in a two-minute speed date observed by matchmakers.
00:09:49Do you put your fries on the cheeseburger or you just go straight for the cheeseburger?
00:09:53No names or jobs were shared and they were matched on their chemistry, compatibility and
00:10:01their ability to grow together.
00:10:03You're beautiful.
00:10:05Oh, good lord, is this dress?
00:10:06Oh, thank you.
00:10:08It's so cute, right?
00:10:09And one of our new brides can't wait to get to the island and heat things up.
00:10:14I'm a semi.
00:10:15Can I just wear your jacket for two minutes?
00:10:17Yeah, absolutely.
00:10:18Ask me a question while you do that.
00:10:19I'm freezing.
00:10:20All right.
00:10:21The question will be...
00:10:22Yep, tell me.
00:10:23Uh, what are you into?
00:10:26What do you do for fun?
00:10:28Ask me a question while you're undressing.
00:10:30Absolutely.
00:10:30Um, uh, yeah.
00:10:32How cold are you on a scale of one to ten?
00:10:34I hate the cold.
00:10:35I'm a summer cold.
00:10:36Turn around.
00:10:37At the moment, my dating world is...
00:10:40Cobwebs.
00:10:42No, I can't say that.
00:10:46It's pretty dusty.
00:10:47If you try to kiss me, watch out quickly, I fall for you.
00:10:52I'm Jess.
00:10:53I'm 38.
00:10:54And I'm a writer and dating and relationship coach.
00:10:57If you are somebody that tends to worry about having sex with somebody too soon when you
00:11:03start dating, then this tip is for you.
00:11:07Nighttime activities lead to nighttime activities.
00:11:10It's as simple as that.
00:11:12If you don't want to have sex, go to brunch.
00:11:15The irony is, I'm a dating and relationship coach, but I haven't been in a relationship
00:11:24for many years.
00:11:26Sometimes I forget to follow my own advice.
00:11:30I chase chemistry.
00:11:34Chemistry feels amazing and it's exciting.
00:11:38There's a thrill that comes from chasing chemistry, like fireworks, but it doesn't always pan out
00:11:48well.
00:11:49It does fade.
00:11:52Men lose interest, then back away, and it's devastating for me.
00:12:02I'm 38 and I've been putting my heart on the line, so I'm starting to think, when is it
00:12:08going to be my turn?
00:12:10Hello.
00:12:11Hi.
00:12:11How are you?
00:12:12I was born in Austria, so I was raised overseas.
00:12:15Austria?
00:12:15Yeah, so I speak fluent German and I've traveled a lot all over the world.
00:12:18I love German.
00:12:20Well, I'll hopefully be able to teach you a little more than this.
00:12:22I like that.
00:12:23I like that very much.
00:12:25On the island, we'll have no choice but to keep persisting on the relationship beyond chemistry.
00:12:32You're gorgeous.
00:12:34How are you?
00:12:34Nice to meet you, 13.
00:12:36Nice to meet you, 9.
00:12:37Nice to date.
00:12:38My days are good.
00:12:40Are you an extrovert or introvert?
00:12:41I'm just going to guess.
00:12:42We're confident and caring.
00:12:43How are you caring?
00:12:44Tell me.
00:12:45Give me an example.
00:12:45Active listening, empathetic.
00:12:48I want to be your best friend and your lover.
00:12:51Okay.
00:12:51We've got 14.
00:12:54Big yes.
00:12:55So, yeah.
00:12:55Huge yes.
00:12:57He speaks German and he's my physical type.
00:13:019 is a bit naughty.
00:13:04He's gorgeous.
00:13:05He's got a lot of confidence, a lot of charm.
00:13:08He said some of the right things.
00:13:09So, I'm going to say ding dong dang.
00:13:11You found me five husbands.
00:13:12You checking me in, huh?
00:13:17Can I have a little twop?
00:13:18Of course.
00:13:19Beautiful.
00:13:20I've got some cheek.
00:13:22I reckon I've got some good chat.
00:13:23And I reckon I make people feel very comfortable.
00:13:25Can I give you a handshake and a kiss?
00:13:26A week, yeah.
00:13:27Lovely.
00:13:28You look really nice, by the way.
00:13:30Who are you?
00:13:30Why didn't I start with you?
00:13:31Hold on.
00:13:31If all else fails, hopefully I've got a half-decent body.
00:13:38Hey!
00:13:38Woo!
00:13:39Goddamn.
00:13:39I know you love to make an entrance.
00:13:41Do you like getting paid or getting paid attention?
00:13:44You mix the wrong guys with the right intentions.
00:13:46Feels with me.
00:13:48And again.
00:13:49Oh!
00:13:50Good.
00:13:51Jump.
00:13:51I had some real heartbreak at the start of this year.
00:13:55Two pretty traumatic events in almost the space of four to eight weeks.
00:14:00My last relationship ended and it was devastating.
00:14:03We both had very different lifestyles.
00:14:05You know, I probably going out partying a little too much.
00:14:09That ended very close to around the time that my dad passed away.
00:14:15The thought of, like, losing another person in my life was very overwhelming.
00:14:20My mum was caring for my dad up until the day he passed away.
00:14:26They were married over 25 years and...
00:14:30Till his last breath, my mum was with my dad.
00:14:38Imagine finding someone.
00:14:40I'd kind of hold your hand right up until the moment you take your last breath.
00:14:45I'm dying.
00:14:47What else do you want?
00:14:50Today's the day that Sam will find out if the matchmakers have chosen someone he can create a meaningful bond with
00:15:03that will hopefully last a lifetime.
00:15:05I think the person that's about to meet me is going to fully meet the best version of myself.
00:15:15For a bit over three months now, I've been on a detox.
00:15:18No alcohol, no partying, no sex.
00:15:22I want to be as clear a mind as possible to meet the right person for me.
00:15:25Being stranded on Honeymoon Island, this really gives me the opportunity to dig deep with someone.
00:15:36No external factors, no technology, no social media, no friends, no opinions.
00:15:41Just me and one other person.
00:15:44Hi.
00:15:56Hi.
00:15:57You look beautiful.
00:15:59You look gorgeous too.
00:16:03Welcome to our wedding.
00:16:07Hi, babe.
00:16:08Hi.
00:16:08Nice to see you.
00:16:09Nice to see you too.
00:16:11You all right?
00:16:11Can I give you a hug?
00:16:16You okay?
00:16:17Yeah.
00:16:17You got this together.
00:16:18Okay.
00:16:18All right?
00:16:19I remembered him straight away.
00:16:22There was chemistry.
00:16:23I did feel it.
00:16:24Feel calm?
00:16:25Yeah, I feel super comfortable with you.
00:16:28All the nerves.
00:16:29I feel much calmer now after I've met him.
00:16:33And it was super comfortable straight away.
00:16:35So it's all tick, tick, tick.
00:16:37You look amazing.
00:16:39I'm really excited.
00:16:43I'm Sam.
00:16:44Jess.
00:16:45Nice to meet you, Sam.
00:16:46Lovely to meet you, Jess.
00:16:49Feel better now seeing you.
00:16:52I was definitely nervous, but she made me feel super calm.
00:16:56Yeah, I'm very much attracted to her.
00:16:58She's a beautiful lady.
00:16:59Yeah, let's get married.
00:17:04Hi.
00:17:04Hello.
00:17:05Ready to get married?
00:17:07I think so.
00:17:07Let's do it.
00:17:07I certainly am.
00:17:09Yeah.
00:17:12Jess and Sam, I invite you both to share vows with one another with an open heart and an open mind.
00:17:21Jess, I have yours.
00:17:22I have mine.
00:17:23Okay.
00:17:24Give it to me.
00:17:24Don't make me cry.
00:17:25It's quite comfortable for me to be single because my past relationships, whilst loving, have not worked in my favor.
00:17:35I've completely surrendered to the chemistry and I've experienced heartbreak, but I still believe in love and that hope remains firmly intact.
00:17:48To me, I'm committed to understanding you, opening my heart to the possibility of love and to embracing this experience with you, regardless of the many unknowns that lie before us.
00:18:08Jess, thank you.
00:18:10That was beautiful.
00:18:11You hear that was written from the heart.
00:18:12Thanks.
00:18:13Definitely.
00:18:14You don't know.
00:18:16Not chat TPT.
00:18:17No!
00:18:18It didn't just make it up.
00:18:20All done.
00:18:20Thanks, Jess.
00:18:22All right.
00:18:25Jess.
00:18:25My parents taught me so much, not just about love, but also how to make a relationship work.
00:18:32They taught me to communicate always.
00:18:35For a bit over the last three and a half months, my focus has been my fitness, my mental health and the relationships I have with the people close to me.
00:18:43Through this period, I haven't had any alcohol or intimate relationships.
00:18:47I work out up to twice a day.
00:18:49I meditate, I journal and I build healthy relationships with those around me.
00:18:53You can take my hand on this journey and trust that you are with someone who has clarity.
00:19:00I will be the person not only that you want, but the person that you need.
00:19:05I promise to be the best version of myself for you, to be your support, your partner and your island entertainer.
00:19:12Amazing.
00:19:14I love those.
00:19:16I'm glad.
00:19:17I'm glad.
00:19:23There certainly is a little bit of chemistry, especially now that I can see that he has a lot of depth, which I definitely need.
00:19:33So we've been well matched.
00:19:35I do.
00:19:36Thank goodness.
00:19:37Absolutely.
00:19:38I'm actually looking forward to spending three weeks on a deserted island with Sam.
00:19:42I do.
00:19:43Yes, I'm ready to give it a go.
00:19:45Let's go.
00:19:47I'm overjoyed to pronounce you husband and wife.
00:19:51Yay!
00:19:51You may seal the deal with a kiss.
00:19:53Hell yeah.
00:20:01I'm married!
00:20:02Jess and Sam are now on their way to Honeymoon Island.
00:20:15There's obvious chemistry.
00:20:18But will it last for 21 days?
00:20:22Is that it?
00:20:23Oh my God!
00:20:23What happens when you're stranded on a deserted island with no phones, no luxuries and completely cut off from the outside world?
00:20:37Will a deeper connection form?
00:20:40Or will that chemistry burn out?
00:20:43Let's go, baby!
00:20:45Oh my God, this is the wildest thing I've ever done in my life.
00:20:53But it's an experience that is once in a lifetime.
00:21:00Finding chemistry is easy.
00:21:03But falling in love is hard.
00:21:06I want a deeper connection.
00:21:07I want to find love and I'm ready to go.
00:21:10Oh my God.
00:21:20Oh my God.
00:21:22Thousands of miles away from home.
00:21:24Oh my God.
00:21:25Oh my God.
00:21:27Two brave souls just took an epic leap of faith.
00:21:31Not much of that dress like.
00:21:32into a romantic adventure unlike any other.
00:21:38Straight up.
00:21:39Yeah, let's go, let's go.
00:21:40I think that's our spot, right?
00:21:41Jess and Sam are now stranded on Honeymoon Island.
00:21:46And this remote beach will be their home for the next 21 days.
00:21:51What is this?
00:21:52Oh, my God, are we with Kate?
00:21:55Oh.
00:21:57Where they'll discover if living in total isolation
00:22:01with only each other for company
00:22:03will strengthen their initial bond.
00:22:06How wet did what?
00:22:08Oh, my God, there's a shower.
00:22:10This is gorgeous.
00:22:12How about the view?
00:22:14I know, not bad, hey?
00:22:19We have our own private beach right on our doorstep,
00:22:23maybe 25 steps into crystal clear water.
00:22:27Welcome home.
00:22:29What should we call it?
00:22:30Al fresco paradise, though?
00:22:32Yeah.
00:22:33I'm most looking forward to spending the time with Sam
00:22:36in, like, a bit of a romantic, cute setting.
00:22:38I'm happy with Sam.
00:22:40Like, I'm happy that we'll match together.
00:22:43Cheers, too.
00:22:45Woo!
00:22:47That's perfect.
00:22:49I feel like there's a bit of chemistry.
00:22:51There's a bit of a spark.
00:22:52Congratulations.
00:22:54Let's make this work.
00:22:55It's nice to meet you.
00:22:56She's a beautiful woman, and I'm really lucky.
00:23:01Like, this could be something special here.
00:23:05I think we're going to need to come up with a bit of a game plan.
00:23:07Yeah.
00:23:08I need to rinse these clothes.
00:23:09If we're going to have to make them work and last,
00:23:12you want this shirt, don't you?
00:23:14Yep.
00:23:15All right, let's go rinse everything off.
00:23:16Let's just take a bit of a lead on this.
00:23:18Being here with just the clothes on my back and nothing else
00:23:22is a little bit nuts.
00:23:27Yeah, perfect.
00:23:28But I'm feeling pretty confident and comfortable with Sam.
00:23:33He seems quite caring and considerate and thoughtful.
00:23:38So you've got something to wear.
00:23:39And when Sam rinsed his shirt off,
00:23:44popped me in the shower, made sure I was comfortable,
00:23:47and checked to see if I needed anything else,
00:23:49it was really lovely.
00:23:51All right, let me give you some privacy.
00:23:53I haven't had many men in my life that have really done that for me
00:23:57and have really been so gentle with me.
00:24:00Hi.
00:24:01Honey, I'm home.
00:24:02Hello.
00:24:02And I think it's those little things in relationships
00:24:07and when you're building connections
00:24:09that are the most special and the most important,
00:24:13and they show you a lot about a person's character.
00:24:16Okay.
00:24:18Yeah, cool.
00:24:19All right.
00:24:19Yeah, I'm good.
00:24:20It's a really nice start.
00:24:21It makes me feel reassured.
00:24:32Back in civilisation,
00:24:38another bride is preparing to leave behind
00:24:40the comforts and distractions of home
00:24:42to marry a stranger
00:24:46and get herself stranded in the name of love.
00:24:54Okay, what is everyone getting?
00:24:56Cocktails.
00:24:56We're doing cocktails.
00:24:57I'm Emily.
00:24:58I'm 28.
00:25:00And I'm from Melbourne.
00:25:02I grew up down the surf coast,
00:25:05but, yeah, I'm a city girl through and through now.
00:25:08See you at the bottom.
00:25:11People take one look at me and they're like,
00:25:12she's confident, she's out there.
00:25:15But deep down, not the case at all.
00:25:20I am not as confident as I come across.
00:25:26I've been single for seven years.
00:25:28I have tried the apps.
00:25:30I have tried being set up by friends.
00:25:32I got set up by my parents at one stage.
00:25:34I have tried speed dating.
00:25:37Nothing has worked for me.
00:25:40I'm constantly finding with these guys
00:25:42that their initial attraction is there.
00:25:46And then over time, it just, it fizzles.
00:25:49And I'm constantly getting ghosted.
00:25:51You look at the common denominator and it's me.
00:25:57I just question, is there something I'm doing wrong?
00:26:03Do I not look the right way?
00:26:05So I try and change how I look.
00:26:08I haven't always been blonde.
00:26:09I was brunette at one stage.
00:26:11So I kind of think, you know,
00:26:13maybe if I do go blonde, it'll help.
00:26:16I think I'll part my hair differently,
00:26:18see if that helps.
00:26:19I'll lose weight.
00:26:20I'll wear different clothes.
00:26:22Because no matter what I try and do,
00:26:25I always end up single and alone.
00:26:34Yeah.
00:26:34When I get ghosted, it's a really,
00:26:45it's a horrible feeling.
00:26:47So I'm so excited for this
00:26:49because we are forced to be together.
00:26:52You can't run away.
00:26:54I want him to get to know me
00:26:56and get to know who I am as a person.
00:26:59Hello.
00:26:59Hey, nice to meet you.
00:27:01I'm a hugger as well.
00:27:01Oh, good.
00:27:02Nice to meet you.
00:27:03Lovely to meet you.
00:27:03I'm seeking an accent.
00:27:05Irish.
00:27:06You know what?
00:27:06My mum's always said
00:27:07she want to marry an Irishman.
00:27:08Really?
00:27:09Oh, my God.
00:27:09I'm keen.
00:27:10This is perfect.
00:27:11We're vibing.
00:27:11We're vibing.
00:27:12We're aligned.
00:27:13You just got to get married first.
00:27:14Yeah.
00:27:15For me, number two was a big frontrunner.
00:27:17He's Irish and I love an accent.
00:27:19Let's make some notes here.
00:27:20Double tick.
00:27:21Irish.
00:27:22What I'm looking for
00:27:25is just someone who is tall,
00:27:28you know, dark hair,
00:27:29dark features
00:27:30and really down to earth
00:27:32and a real genuine guy
00:27:33who actually wants this
00:27:34as much as I do.
00:27:36Hello.
00:27:37Hi.
00:27:37Oh, matching number five.
00:27:39Nice to meet you.
00:27:40I'm a hugger.
00:27:40I'm sorry.
00:27:41Nice to meet you.
00:27:42Lovely to meet you too.
00:27:43All right, I'm going to give you,
00:27:43start off with a big one.
00:27:44Yeah, give it to me.
00:27:45Describe me your perfect date
00:27:46from the moment you wake up
00:27:47to the moment you go to bed.
00:27:48Perfect date.
00:27:49Oh, perfect date.
00:27:50Perfect day.
00:27:51Perfect day.
00:27:51Perfect day.
00:27:53Definitely somewhere near the beach.
00:27:55Stop.
00:27:56Wake up all these sex
00:27:57in the morning, I reckon.
00:27:58Yeah.
00:27:58Start it off.
00:27:59Then straight into coffee.
00:28:00Love coffee, so.
00:28:01Yeah.
00:28:02I'd say number five
00:28:03was in the top for sure.
00:28:04His answer was amazing.
00:28:06I was like,
00:28:06you started off with
00:28:07morning glory
00:28:08and that's a great way
00:28:09to start your day, mate.
00:28:12And he's just beautiful
00:28:13to look at, so.
00:28:14I wouldn't mind
00:28:15looking at that every day.
00:28:16I'm Tom.
00:28:20I'm 29
00:28:21and I work
00:28:22as a business analyst.
00:28:24I like your,
00:28:25I like your matching
00:28:27like suit.
00:28:28It's cute.
00:28:28So Tom,
00:28:29how much attention
00:28:30do you get
00:28:31from the opposite sex?
00:28:33How do I answer this
00:28:34without sounding
00:28:35like a douchebag?
00:28:35You're a bit cute.
00:28:36You've got someone else's makeup.
00:28:38I'll just help you though.
00:28:39It's so fine.
00:28:40Was that yours?
00:28:41No.
00:28:42I'd say I haven't
00:28:43really struggled
00:28:44when it comes to meeting
00:28:45women.
00:28:46Hobbies.
00:28:47I like guitar.
00:28:48That's high.
00:28:51But,
00:28:52I haven't really
00:28:53been able to find
00:28:53a meaningful connection
00:28:55with anyone.
00:28:56And why are you still single?
00:28:57What would your ex-girlfriend
00:28:58say?
00:28:59She'd say
00:29:00because she didn't
00:29:00want to be with me.
00:29:01Why?
00:29:05Come on.
00:29:06It's hard for me
00:29:07to kind of let people in
00:29:09and let my guard down.
00:29:11I think potentially
00:29:12because of my
00:29:12previous relationship.
00:29:13I was dating someone
00:29:16for quite a few years
00:29:17and thought that
00:29:18that would be the person
00:29:19that I'd spend
00:29:20the rest of my life with
00:29:21but it didn't end up
00:29:23that way
00:29:23and I found out
00:29:25later on
00:29:25that she was seeing
00:29:26her ex-boyfriend
00:29:27so that was a big hit
00:29:30to the gut.
00:29:32I mean,
00:29:33yeah,
00:29:33the only way
00:29:34to describe that moment
00:29:35when we broke up
00:29:36is just,
00:29:37yeah,
00:29:38heartbroken.
00:29:38I think I've
00:29:44processed the end
00:29:45of that relationship
00:29:45but there's still
00:29:46wounds there
00:29:47that I haven't quite
00:29:48recovered from.
00:29:51In relationships,
00:29:53it's hard for me
00:29:53to let my guard down.
00:29:54I can be a closed book.
00:29:56It's, yeah,
00:29:57it's hard for me
00:29:57to open up.
00:29:58Being on an island,
00:30:04I'll be forced
00:30:05to be vulnerable
00:30:07and open myself
00:30:08up to someone.
00:30:10I'm looking for a partner
00:30:11who is bubbly
00:30:12and has a good sense
00:30:13of humour.
00:30:14Patience.
00:30:15And, yeah,
00:30:16someone who can
00:30:16break down my walls.
00:30:17I think after seven years
00:30:22you kind of doubt yourself
00:30:23that you'll ever get
00:30:24to this point.
00:30:26So,
00:30:26the fact that I am here
00:30:28feels incredible.
00:30:30Oh, wow.
00:30:33I love this.
00:30:38This is beautiful.
00:30:40I feel like a princess.
00:30:42Just how I wanted to feel
00:30:43on my wedding day.
00:30:44I think it's the first time
00:30:48I've ever looked at myself
00:30:49and thought,
00:30:50far out,
00:30:50I'm gorgeous.
00:30:51Like,
00:30:52any man would be happy
00:30:53to have this
00:30:53and lucky to have this.
00:30:56So,
00:30:57I'm obsessed.
00:31:01I'm not the most
00:31:02confident person.
00:31:03So,
00:31:04to be sitting here
00:31:04loving myself,
00:31:05I'm like,
00:31:05finally.
00:31:07I hope
00:31:07my husband loves me
00:31:09just as much
00:31:09as I do right now.
00:31:14What I'm looking for
00:31:17is just someone
00:31:18who can just love
00:31:18every little weird
00:31:19bit about me
00:31:20and every little curve
00:31:21that I might have
00:31:22and every weird snort
00:31:24that I do when I laugh.
00:31:25I think I'm most
00:31:34nervous about
00:31:35my partner
00:31:36not liking me.
00:31:39Is he going to be
00:31:40disappointed
00:31:40when he sees me
00:31:41down the aisle?
00:31:43I would
00:31:44be devastated
00:31:45if this was
00:31:46another big projection
00:31:47for me.
00:31:48I would
00:32:10be devastated
00:32:11if this was
00:32:12another big rejection
00:32:13for me.
00:32:14And if this
00:32:18isn't to work out,
00:32:19I don't want to
00:32:20have my heart broken.
00:32:22Because I'm ready
00:32:23to give this
00:32:24my entire all
00:32:25and I hope
00:32:25he is too.
00:32:39Hello.

00:32:44Good to see you.

00:32:46as I am?

00:33:05to see at the end
00:33:06of the altar.
00:33:07He's got the most
00:33:07beautiful eyes.

00:33:54When I signed up
00:33:56for this experience,

00:33:58with you today

00:34:20You did well.
00:34:22Emily,
00:34:23I have your vows here.
00:34:24Amazing.
00:34:29To my new husband,
00:34:31the journey of love
00:34:32for me
00:34:33has been far from easy
00:34:34and after countless
00:34:36failed attempts
00:34:37at finding love,
00:34:38I've at times
00:34:39lost hope
00:34:39in finding the man
00:34:40of my dreams.
00:34:43For years,
00:34:44I've lost confidence
00:34:44in myself.
00:34:46I've tried my hardest
00:34:46at being the perfect partner,
00:34:48moulded myself
00:34:49into the girl
00:34:49I think people want
00:34:51just to be a girl.
00:34:51please someone else.
00:34:53But today marks
00:34:54a new chapter
00:34:55in not only my life
00:34:57but our lives together.
00:34:59So,
00:35:00I promise to always
00:35:01be my true authentic self
00:35:02as I hope you do
00:35:03in return.
00:35:04And most importantly,
00:35:06I promise to give you
00:35:07and this experience
00:35:08my all.
00:35:10Well done.
00:35:11Yeah.
00:35:12That was really good.
00:35:14Now we get to do
00:35:15the exchanging of rings.
00:35:16What are you thinking of Em?
00:35:21A lot of emotions,
00:35:23I guess.
00:35:24Yeah.
00:35:25So, yeah,
00:35:26I think
00:35:27for me,
00:35:30there has to be
00:35:32a spark
00:35:33from the very start.
00:35:34I do.
00:35:35If I'm truly honest
00:35:38with myself,
00:35:39I don't feel the spark.
00:35:42I do.
00:35:45I would say
00:35:46Emily is not
00:35:46my usual type.
00:35:48It brings me
00:35:48great honour
00:35:49to declare you two
00:35:50husband and wife.
00:35:54You may seal the deal
00:35:55with a kiss.
00:36:06There's nothing,
00:36:07nothing there.
00:36:10Amazing.
00:36:11Kiss was very good.
00:36:13Tom went in
00:36:14for the full French kiss.
00:36:15Let's go.
00:36:16Wasn't going to argue it.
00:36:17I was like,
00:36:18I'm here for it.
00:36:18My husband's hot.
00:36:19I'm going to let it happen.
00:36:25I'm going to let you
00:36:26jump on first.
00:36:27He is honestly
00:36:28hot out of ten.
00:36:30I have 100%
00:36:32won the lottery with Tom.
00:36:33Here we go.
00:36:35That was like,
00:36:36dream guy,
00:36:37dream wedding.
00:36:38I loved it.
00:36:40Let's go live
00:36:40on an island now.
00:36:47Tom might not
00:36:48be feeling the spark,
00:36:50but there's no
00:36:50turning back now.
00:36:53Okay,
00:36:53I'm kind of
00:36:53freaking out now.
00:36:54When I'm dating
00:36:58and when I
00:36:59meet someone,
00:37:01if I don't feel
00:37:04like there's that
00:37:05spark or something
00:37:06doesn't click
00:37:07or feel right,
00:37:08it usually takes
00:37:09me a long time
00:37:10to open up
00:37:11to someone.
00:37:24But I'm about
00:37:27to be stranded
00:37:28on an island
00:37:28with this girl.
00:37:29So to give
00:37:30this relationship
00:37:31the best chance
00:37:32of succeeding,
00:37:33I know that
00:37:34I'm going to have
00:37:35to be open
00:37:36and vulnerable
00:37:37and try to make
00:37:38a change
00:37:38from my old ways.
00:37:39Should we
00:37:39check out this hut?
00:37:42I really want
00:37:43to throw myself
00:37:44into this
00:37:44and be fully
00:37:45committed to this,
00:37:46but I'm packing
00:37:48it right now
00:37:48for sure.
00:37:49After walking
00:38:04down the aisle
00:38:05just hours ago,
00:38:06relationship coach
00:38:07Jess and personal
00:38:09trainer Sam
00:38:10are getting
00:38:10better acquainted
00:38:11in their new
00:38:12island home.
00:38:14What do you do
00:38:14for work?
00:38:15Try to keep it in.
00:38:19I'm a writer
00:38:20and a dating
00:38:22and relationship
00:38:22coach.
00:38:25You are not.
00:38:27You are not.
00:38:28Are you going
00:38:28to give us advice?
00:38:29Are you going
00:38:30to be our therapist?
00:38:32No, not for us.
00:38:34Being stranded
00:38:35on this island
00:38:35for three weeks
00:38:36I think is going
00:38:37to be hugely valuable.
00:38:38I think we're
00:38:38going to learn
00:38:39a lot about
00:38:39each other
00:38:40and ourselves.
00:38:41Yeah, I'll be
00:38:42vulnerable and say
00:38:43I feel a bit
00:38:43of a connection.
00:38:44So, yeah.
00:38:45Need to.
00:38:46I'm happy.
00:38:47Need to.
00:38:52While Jess and
00:38:53Sam get settled
00:38:54into island life,
00:38:56one more
00:39:01brand new couple
00:39:02are about to
00:39:03take the plunge
00:39:04and marry someone
00:39:05they've only met
00:39:06once before.
00:39:13I mean,
00:39:13it's a strange
00:39:14feeling.
00:39:14You know,
00:39:15I'm kind of just
00:39:16in this whole
00:39:18limbo world.
00:39:20I don't know
00:39:20who I'm marrying
00:39:21today,
00:39:22but as crazy
00:39:23as it sounds,
00:39:24I am trusting
00:39:24the process.
00:39:30My name's Emmanuel.
00:39:31I'm 34 years old.
00:39:32I'm a musician
00:39:33and a music producer.
00:39:34And I live
00:39:34on the Gold Coast.
00:39:35I play in a band
00:39:37and I play in a band
00:39:37which plays alternative
00:39:38rock and roll.
00:39:40I've worked with
00:39:40Matt Corby,
00:39:41the Kid Leroy,
00:39:42Jessica Mowboy.
00:39:44My goal is to be
00:39:46as big as Pharrell Williams.
00:39:47I am so ambitious
00:39:55and really want
00:39:56to chase my dream,
00:39:58but my music career
00:39:59has just consumed
00:40:00my life
00:40:00and hasn't allowed
00:40:01me to really
00:40:02have a relationship.
00:40:04I've just allowed
00:40:12myself to fall
00:40:13into this trap
00:40:14of work,
00:40:15work, work.
00:40:17I want to get
00:40:18stranded because
00:40:19I need work
00:40:19to disappear
00:40:20so I can really
00:40:21focus on a relationship.
00:40:23I've neglected
00:40:24really finding
00:40:26my life partner,
00:40:27which is just
00:40:28as important
00:40:28as my job.
00:40:31Maybe more important
00:40:32to be honest,
00:40:32because you retire
00:40:34at some stage,
00:40:35don't you?
00:40:36But you don't
00:40:37retire a relationship.
00:40:39That's forever
00:40:39in my eyes.
00:40:43Hi.
00:40:44How are you?
00:40:44Good, how are you?
00:40:45Very well.
00:40:46How are you?
00:40:46Good, thank you.
00:40:48Lovely to meet you.
00:40:49Do you think
00:40:50you're a catch?
00:40:51I think I'm a catch.
00:40:52I think I'm a catch.
00:40:53I'm caring,
00:40:54I'm forgiving,
00:40:55I'm compassionate.
00:40:57I'm a lover,
00:40:58you know?
00:41:00So what are you hoping
00:41:00to get out
00:41:01of this experience?
00:41:02I mean,
00:41:03yeah,
00:41:03I'm just a life partner.
00:41:05I'm at the place
00:41:06in my life
00:41:06where it's like
00:41:07I want to have
00:41:08something with someone
00:41:10together.
00:41:11Yeah.
00:41:12My mum was telling me
00:41:13the other day,
00:41:13she's like,
00:41:13aren't you sick
00:41:14of being alone?
00:41:15I said,
00:41:15I know, mum.
00:41:17I'm tired
00:41:18of superficial relationships.
00:41:20I really want
00:41:21something deep
00:41:22and meaningful
00:41:22and, yeah,
00:41:24a life partner.
00:41:26Hello.
00:41:26Oh, hi.
00:41:27How are you going?
00:41:27Nice to meet you.
00:41:28What do you look for
00:41:33in a life partner?
00:41:35Oh, good question.
00:41:37Emotionally intelligent.
00:41:39They have to,
00:41:40yeah,
00:41:41have to be able
00:41:42to hold a deep
00:41:43conversation
00:41:43but also not
00:41:44take themselves
00:41:44too seriously.
00:41:46Love a bit of
00:41:47banter.
00:41:48Got to be able
00:41:49to hold the dance.
00:41:50I love it.
00:41:50Yeah,
00:41:51got to have the dance.
00:41:51We're going to have
00:41:52the dance.
00:41:52Yeah.
00:41:55Oh,
00:41:5614's really hot.
00:41:58And I think
00:41:59that's what is
00:41:59the most important thing.
00:42:00Yeah.
00:42:01Is to establish
00:42:01a best friend
00:42:02within your relationship.
00:42:04I want, like,
00:42:05professional,
00:42:06tall, dark,
00:42:07handsome.
00:42:08Do you hold off
00:42:09on sleeping with somebody
00:42:10until you've done that?
00:42:10I mean, yeah.
00:42:11It's never
00:42:12for me.
00:42:12No.
00:42:14Suave,
00:42:14sexy.
00:42:16I'm done.
00:42:17I'm done.
00:42:19I'm Dani.
00:42:20I'm 34
00:42:21and I'm from
00:42:22Magnetic Island.
00:42:26It is dire.
00:42:31Dire.
00:42:32It's just,
00:42:33I mean,
00:42:33I'm talking
00:42:34long-sleeved
00:42:35fisherman shirts,
00:42:36like,
00:42:37three-quarter
00:42:37board shorts,
00:42:38reflective sunnies.
00:42:40Like,
00:42:40it's
00:42:41mullets
00:42:43with three kids
00:42:44and they can't,
00:42:45you know,
00:42:45pull a sentence
00:42:46together.
00:42:46I can't deal.
00:42:50I think I need
00:42:53a change of pace
00:42:54Just a little
00:42:55empty space
00:42:56I moved to
00:42:58Magnetic Island
00:42:59because I was
00:43:00working in Sydney
00:43:00in a corporate job,
00:43:02classic nine-to-five,
00:43:03slaving away
00:43:04at my desk,
00:43:05living the dream
00:43:06and I was miserable.
00:43:09Cheers.
00:43:10My love,
00:43:11so nice to see you.
00:43:12Magnetic Island
00:43:13was the best move ever
00:43:14because it's just
00:43:15this alternate universe
00:43:16where everything's
00:43:18really slow-paced,
00:43:19it's like no bra,
00:43:20no shoes,
00:43:21no one,
00:43:21can I swear?
00:43:22Yeah, go for it.
00:43:22No one gives a shit
00:43:23what you do for a living
00:43:24and it's very chill.
00:43:29But I'm at a stage now
00:43:31where I'm starting
00:43:31to think about,
00:43:32okay,
00:43:32what does my future
00:43:33look like?
00:43:35Every now and again
00:43:36I'll, like,
00:43:36catch myself
00:43:37walking through
00:43:37a shopping centre
00:43:38and see a mum
00:43:39with, like,
00:43:39a new baby
00:43:40and think,
00:43:40oh,
00:43:40that'll be me soon.
00:43:44I've done
00:43:45my whole life
00:43:46alone for so long now
00:43:47and I just want
00:43:49to find someone
00:43:50to settle down with.
00:43:52I don't want
00:43:53to be single forever.
00:43:56I think it's inevitable
00:43:57that it's going
00:43:58to be a wild ride.
00:44:00Three weeks,
00:44:01just the two of us
00:44:01stuck on an island.
00:44:03We've really
00:44:03only got each other.
00:44:05So we're either
00:44:06going to love each other
00:44:07or we're going
00:44:08to hate each other.
00:44:09But I am
00:44:11in my YOLO era.
00:44:12Imagine if I did
00:44:13fall in love.
00:44:14How fun would that be?
00:44:17It could be
00:44:18the beginning
00:44:19of the rest of my life.
00:44:22Love the heights.
00:44:29I'm all for the height.
00:44:31Hello.
00:44:31Hello.
00:44:32How are you?
00:44:36Here we are.
00:44:37Here we are.
00:44:38Yeah.
00:44:40He's super hot.
00:44:42I'm into it.
00:44:44Yeah,
00:44:44you smell good.
00:44:45Ah,
00:44:45thank you.
00:44:47It's actually
00:44:47such a good result.
00:44:48Yeah,
00:44:50I think it's all
00:44:50going to be okay.
00:44:52I like your suit.
00:44:53I like your outfit.
00:44:55Your dress.
00:44:55That's good.
00:44:58Are we waiting?
00:44:59I don't know what to do.
00:45:02I felt happy
00:45:04to have finally seen her.
00:45:05She looks pretty.
00:45:06She's really stunning.
00:45:08But I can't,
00:45:09I can't remember her
00:45:10from speed dating
00:45:11at all.
00:45:12How are you feeling?
00:45:14I'm happy.
00:45:15Good.
00:45:15I'm very happy.
00:45:16Yeah.
00:45:17Okay,
00:45:18good.
00:45:19I do remember
00:45:20a few brunettes,
00:45:21but I'm not sure.
00:45:23Does she have a leg tattoo?
00:45:32Hi.
00:45:34Do you guys know
00:45:35each other's names yet?
00:45:37No.
00:45:38Well,

00:45:43Nice to meet you.
00:45:45Hang on.
00:45:46Now I'm trying to remember
00:45:47if I actually did.
00:45:49You've both taken time
00:45:51to write your own vow.
00:45:53Just work in hospitality.
00:45:54I want to invite you now
00:45:55to share those.
00:45:57Or the one in the red dress.
00:45:59Gonna have to look back
00:46:00on that tape.
00:46:00I can't remember.
00:46:03Okay.
00:46:05Emmanuel,
00:46:06I've been waiting
00:46:07a long time for this,
00:46:08an opportunity
00:46:08to find my person.
00:46:11Sometimes I think
00:46:11I'm crazy.
00:46:12Who travels to a tropical island
00:46:14to marry a stranger?
00:46:15We do.
00:46:16Apparently us.
00:46:17Yeah.
00:46:19I've spent a lot of time
00:46:20persisting in relationships
00:46:21that weren't right for me.
00:46:23And it's only when life
00:46:23throws you obstacles
00:46:24you realise how important
00:46:25it is to have the right person
00:46:27by your side.
00:46:29I'm looking for a true connection.
00:46:31To have a friend
00:46:32and a partner.
00:46:33To be seen
00:46:34and heard
00:46:35and loved
00:46:36with equal weight.
00:46:37What I need from you
00:46:39is the willingness
00:46:39and patience
00:46:40to get to know me.
00:46:42I'm excited
00:46:43to get to know you,
00:46:44to understand you
00:46:45and to lean into
00:46:47the possibility
00:46:47of what this could be.
00:46:50Thank you for trusting me
00:46:51with your heart
00:46:51and I can't wait
00:46:52to show you
00:46:53all the layers
00:46:53that are Danny.
00:46:56That's beautiful.
00:46:58I don't remember
00:46:59Danny at all
00:47:00to be honest
00:47:01but
00:47:02we're both just
00:47:03really tired
00:47:04of being alone
00:47:05and really want
00:47:06to find someone
00:47:08in the most genuine
00:47:09way possible.
00:47:10So,
00:47:11nerves are gone finally

00:47:14very excited.

00:47:30preparing to marry you

00:47:36to go about
00:47:37finding love
00:47:38but
00:47:39this experience
00:47:41doesn't scare me.
00:47:43So,
00:47:43with my heart
00:47:44wide open
00:47:44I say I do.
00:47:48Here's to a time

00:48:18Off to our island.
00:48:20Danny and Emmanuel
00:48:21have left
00:48:22civilisation behind
00:48:23and are headed
00:48:25for honeymoon
00:48:26island.
00:48:26I want love
00:48:28I can see a little
00:48:32shelter thing
00:48:33on that corner.
00:48:34There.
00:48:35There's no walls
00:48:36is there?
00:48:36There's no walls
00:48:37just the roof.
00:48:39I'm struggling
00:48:40to remember Danny.
00:48:42Oh no.
00:48:44But
00:48:44we're a team now.
00:48:46You ready?
00:48:47No.
00:48:48We need to
00:48:49not only
00:48:49survive
00:48:50but get to know
00:48:51each other
00:48:51and hopefully
00:48:52build a strong bond
00:48:53that you know
00:48:54goes beyond
00:48:54this island.
00:48:56Alright let's do this.
00:48:57Ready?
00:48:57Set.
00:48:58Go.
00:49:00Scary and exciting
00:49:01but I'm ready
00:49:02just to throw myself
00:49:03into the deep
00:49:03and to find
00:49:04my life harder.
00:49:11It's the first night
00:49:13on Honeymoon Island
00:49:14for our three new couples
00:49:15and now
00:49:16the adventure
00:49:17can begin.
00:49:18I feel really lucky
00:49:23that I got you.
00:49:25Really?
00:49:25Yeah.
00:49:26I do too.
00:49:27Really?
00:49:28Yeah.
00:49:32Marrying a stranger
00:49:33was the easy part.
00:49:35We cannot find
00:49:36matches to light
00:49:37a simple fire.
00:49:38It has to be here.
00:49:40Do you see a flint?
00:49:41Maybe there's a flint.
00:49:42What's a flint?
00:49:43I don't actually
00:49:48know what it is.
00:49:48So batten down
00:49:50the hatches
00:49:50and hold on tight
00:49:52because this experience
00:49:53is about to
00:49:55blow them away.
00:49:56Holy shit!
00:49:59This thing is insane.
00:50:02Oh shit!
00:50:02Oh God!
00:50:05Oh!
00:50:06This is for real!
00:50:08We're screwed!
00:50:13As the sun rises
00:50:19over the South Pacific
00:50:20all six couples
00:50:23are officially
00:50:24stranded
00:50:24on Honeymoon Island.
00:50:28After yesterday's
00:50:30confrontation
00:50:31Amy and Mike
00:50:32are taking it slow.
00:50:36I think Mike
00:50:38is emotional.
00:50:40I think he's upset.
00:50:43I don't think
00:50:44there'll be much
00:50:45chit-chat today.
00:50:48We'll probably
00:50:49stay to our
00:50:50separate corners
00:50:51of the camp
00:50:52but I now feel
00:50:54like everything
00:50:56that's been bubbling
00:50:57up inside me
00:50:58is out
00:50:59and I feel like
00:51:00we can really
00:51:01start on working
00:51:02from a fresh slate
00:51:03tomorrow.
00:51:05I don't want there
00:51:06to be this rift
00:51:07between us.
00:51:08He is my partner
00:51:09in this
00:51:10and at the end
00:51:12of the day
00:51:12we really only
00:51:13have each other
00:51:13here.
00:51:15I hope that we
00:51:16can move forward
00:51:17from this.
00:51:18I guess we'll
00:51:18just see.
00:51:24How's that?
00:51:26I'm in beach shorts.
00:51:30Since being married
00:51:32flight attendant
00:51:33Georgia
00:51:33and 46 year old
00:51:34bachelor Chad
00:51:35are yet to have
00:51:36their first kiss.
00:51:39We feel like
00:51:40we're in our
00:51:40little bubble.
00:51:41We're in a little bubble.
00:51:41We're in a bubble.
00:51:42A little honeymoon bubble.
00:51:44We do want to
00:51:45take things slow
00:51:45but I'm feeling
00:51:47like the chemistry
00:51:47is definitely there
00:51:49and I'm very
00:51:51attracted to Chad
00:51:53like mentally
00:51:53and physically.
00:51:55Of course
00:51:56it's hard
00:51:56to take it slow.
00:51:58You look good.
00:51:59Do you like that?
00:52:00I do.
00:52:01It's always scary
00:52:13getting new feelings
00:52:14for someone
00:52:14but I always say
00:52:16no risk
00:52:17no reward.
00:52:19It just felt right
00:52:20so
00:52:21yeah
00:52:22it was so nice
00:52:23as you can see
00:52:24by the grin
00:52:25on my face.
00:52:26Can't wait
00:52:27a smile off.
00:52:33It was worth
00:52:36the wait.
00:52:38No.
00:52:40No.
00:52:42Like some firewood.
00:52:48Commitment
00:52:48for Brie
00:52:49is starting
00:52:50to warm up
00:52:50to island life
00:52:51with laid back
00:52:52Sparky Byron.
00:52:54Let's cut them up.
00:52:56Am I doing it?
00:52:57Yeah.
00:52:58Don't you wind up.
00:52:59Why?
00:53:02I think she's
00:53:02doing really well
00:53:03considering she's
00:53:04never had an experience
00:53:05like this before
00:53:07of like camping
00:53:08and being outdoors.
00:53:09What are we going
00:53:10to do with the
00:53:10other half of the pants?
00:53:11That's the question.
00:53:12Then you add
00:53:13being married
00:53:14to a random.
00:53:15Yeah it's pretty
00:53:15overwhelming
00:53:17but
00:53:17Alright let's try it on.
00:53:20She's keeping
00:53:21the entertainment there
00:53:23and a bit of creativity
00:53:24which is fun.
00:53:26We've got leg warmers.
00:53:28Perfect.
00:53:29We can do a jazz routine.
00:53:31It's obvious
00:53:32to see Brie likes me
00:53:33and I really like Brie too
00:53:34you know
00:53:35so
00:53:35if we didn't like
00:53:36each other
00:53:37we wouldn't be
00:53:38this happy
00:53:39and enjoying
00:53:40every day.
00:53:41It kind of suits you.
00:53:42You can't look like
00:53:42a nun.
00:53:45A hot nun?
00:53:46Yeah of course.
00:53:47Our brand new couples
00:53:50are still adjusting
00:53:52to living in the elements.
00:53:54That wind last night
00:53:55like
00:53:56it was moving
00:53:57the bed
00:53:57with both of us on it.
00:54:00How did you sleep?
00:54:01I don't think
00:54:02I actually slept.
00:54:05But relationship coach
00:54:07Jess
00:54:07and personal trainer
00:54:08Sam
00:54:09are too besotted
00:54:10to notice.
00:54:11The night in the honeymoon suite
00:54:17was
00:54:18very relaxed
00:54:19very chill
00:54:20nothing risque
00:54:21to report.
00:54:23The
00:54:24physical chemistry
00:54:25romantic spark
00:54:26is still there.
00:54:27Hello
00:54:28yes it's Jessica
00:54:29in
00:54:30al fresco paradiso.
00:54:32Yes
00:54:33I'd like a
00:54:33double shot
00:54:34oatmeal
00:54:35latte.
00:54:35I'm the kind of person
00:54:39that will wake up
00:54:40every day
00:54:41and go to bed
00:54:42every night
00:54:42and be like
00:54:42hey do you still like me?
00:54:44Because I need
00:54:45that kind of reassurance
00:54:46but at the moment
00:54:48I still think
00:54:49it's there
00:54:49organically
00:54:50which is
00:54:50amazing.
00:54:52Thank you very much.
00:54:52Catch up.
00:54:53See you soon.
00:54:58While Jess
00:54:59still fills the chemistry
00:55:00with new hubby Sam
00:55:01on Emily
00:55:03and Tom's island
00:55:04there's no
00:55:05fire
00:55:06and for Tom
00:55:07there's no spark.
00:55:10So today
00:55:11I will cut your dress down
00:55:12so you can actually
00:55:13walk around.
00:55:15The fire is a priority
00:55:16as well.
00:55:17Yeah I think
00:55:18waking up this morning
00:55:19it's kind of all
00:55:19hit me
00:55:20of exactly
00:55:22what I've got
00:55:23myself into.
00:55:25I might reveal too much.
00:55:27Very close
00:55:28to my butt.
00:55:29Yeah we'll just
00:55:30still
00:55:31don't know
00:55:32if there's that
00:55:33spark there
00:55:34at the moment.
00:55:36In the past
00:55:37I'd say
00:55:38if I didn't
00:55:39see that spark
00:55:40with someone
00:55:40or
00:55:41you know
00:55:42I guess sometimes
00:55:42you might get the ick
00:55:43or something like that
00:55:44I would usually
00:55:46cut things off
00:55:47maybe even ghost
00:55:47ghost someone
00:55:49but being on an island
00:55:52and stranded with her
00:55:53it's going to be
00:55:54a lot tougher
00:55:55than what
00:55:55I imagined
00:55:57going into this.
00:55:59I can move!
00:56:01I don't think
00:56:01she really knows
00:56:02how I'm feeling.
00:56:04It's just an awkward
00:56:04situation.
00:56:07It actually doesn't
00:56:07look too bad.
00:56:08I feel the need
00:56:10to run away
00:56:11from Emily
00:56:11but I can't.
00:56:14I'll do a catwalk
00:56:14later.
00:56:15Okay.
00:56:17There has been
00:56:18no development
00:56:19in the romance
00:56:21department.
00:56:21I think for now
00:56:22it's very platonic
00:56:23so
00:56:24I think I need
00:56:26to set myself
00:56:26like a personal task
00:56:28of maybe flirting
00:56:29a little bit more
00:56:30and
00:56:31see where that
00:56:32leads us
00:56:32and if it does
00:56:33create more
00:56:34of a romantic spark
00:56:35we can use
00:56:37this for so much
00:56:38stuff.
00:56:41Sleeping masks.
00:56:44Could also use it
00:56:45for something else
00:56:45but you know
00:56:46we'll work that out
00:56:47later.
00:56:49Hand cast.
00:56:51I also feel like
00:56:52he is holding
00:56:53back a little bit.
00:56:54I would love
00:56:55to break down
00:56:55his walls
00:56:56and we will see
00:56:58how he
00:56:59reacts to it.
00:57:01Matches?
00:57:03It has to be
00:57:04somewhere
00:57:05right in front
00:57:06of us
00:57:06that we can't
00:57:07see.
00:57:07Alright first
00:57:08one to start
00:57:08a fire.
00:57:09Is that what
00:57:10you want to do?
00:57:11Gives the other
00:57:11one a massage.

00:57:26situation.

00:57:34blind?
00:57:40The matches
00:57:41are right
00:57:41there.
00:57:48This is so
00:57:49embarrassing
00:57:49that we could
00:57:50not find these
00:57:50last night.
00:57:52It was very
00:57:53difficult to see
00:57:54but I'm so
00:57:56glad I found

00:59:01seem like it.

00:59:26with me.
00:59:29If he's not
00:59:29interested then
00:59:30that's fine
00:59:31but I also
00:59:33would prefer him
00:59:34to tell me
00:59:34that so I'm
00:59:36not trying to
00:59:37put in all
00:59:38this effort
00:59:38again and get
00:59:39little in
00:59:39return.
00:59:42After being
00:59:43single for
00:59:44seven years
00:59:45I am so
00:59:46scared of
00:59:48getting hurt
00:59:48again and
00:59:50if this
00:59:50isn't to
00:59:51work out
00:59:51I don't
00:59:52want to
00:59:52have my
00:59:53heart broken
00:59:53once again.
00:59:54shall I make
01:00:12jorts?
01:00:13Yes.
01:00:16For Danny and
01:00:17Emmanuel getting
01:00:18married and
01:00:19stranded on
01:00:20honeymoon island
01:00:20hasn't exactly
01:00:22been smooth
01:00:23sailing.
01:00:24Hi
01:00:25knees.
01:00:26Not only did
01:00:27Emmanuel not
01:00:28recognise his
01:00:29new wife at
01:00:30the altar
01:00:30Gale force
01:00:32winds last
01:00:32night prevented
01:00:33them from
01:00:34getting acquainted.
01:00:36What would you
01:00:36like on the
01:00:37menu Dal?
01:00:37A bit of
01:00:38shakshuka?
01:00:39No eggs?
01:00:39Great.
01:00:40Shakshuka no

01:00:43are getting along
01:00:44really well but
01:00:45I'm struggling to
01:00:46remember Danny
01:00:47from the speed
01:00:47dating event
01:00:48and I'm not

01:01:23Sydney is
01:01:24really hustle
01:01:24and bustle
01:01:25and crazy
01:01:26and it's
01:01:27getting very
01:01:28angsty for
01:01:28me and I
01:01:29just wanted
01:01:29to go and
01:01:30find what I
01:01:31love the most.
01:01:31Yep I know
01:01:32that feeling.
01:01:33I climbed the
01:01:34corporate ladder
01:01:34I lived the
01:01:35city life I
01:01:35did all that
01:01:36and then I
01:01:37burnt out.
01:01:38Yeah that's
01:01:39exactly right.
01:01:39It's not fun.
01:01:40It's not.
01:01:42First date
01:01:42was really
01:01:43nice.
01:01:44We are both
01:01:45in Queensland
01:01:46running away

01:01:50We have a
01:01:51very similar
01:01:52outlook on
01:01:52life and
01:01:53I'm starting
01:01:54to realise
01:01:54why we've
01:01:55been stranded
01:01:55on this
01:01:56island together.
01:01:57I think
01:01:58that's why
01:01:58I love
01:01:59Maggie so
01:01:59much.
01:02:00I've just
01:02:00never been
01:02:01anywhere where
01:02:02I could be
01:02:02more like
01:02:03myself.
01:02:04And be so
01:02:05accepted for
01:02:05who I am.
01:02:06I love that.
01:02:07I love that.
01:02:07Yeah I'm the
01:02:08same type of
01:02:09person.
01:02:09Yeah.
01:02:10We share
01:02:10the same
01:02:10values and
01:02:11it's a good
01:02:12energy and
01:02:13and the
01:02:14conversation
01:02:14and vibes
01:02:16are flowing.
01:02:18I'm excited
01:02:19about the
01:02:19next three
01:02:19weeks now.
01:02:20It's a good
01:02:21day.
01:02:30Let me give
01:02:31this thing a
01:02:31whirl.
01:02:32It's really
01:02:32good actually.
01:02:33Is it just?
01:02:34Yeah.
01:02:35I think we
01:02:35just get a new
01:02:36one every day
01:02:36and that's how
01:02:37we do it.
01:02:37After an
01:02:38instant attraction
01:02:39at the wedding
01:02:40Jess and Sam
01:02:41have been swept
01:02:42away by their

01:02:44marital bliss.
01:02:46Hey it looks
01:02:46pretty good.
01:02:47But how long
01:02:48will the honeymoon

01:02:53really really
01:02:54amazing.

01:03:10happening?
01:03:10This is the
01:03:11one.
01:03:11But I've
01:03:13had relationships
01:03:14in the past
01:03:15where you start
01:03:15too fast too
01:03:16early and the
01:03:18emotional connection
01:03:19struggles.
01:03:22It's got me?
01:03:23Yeah.
01:03:25I've got to be
01:03:26careful not to
01:03:27fall into that
01:03:28trap.
01:03:30I feel a really
01:03:31good connection
01:03:31with you and a
01:03:32chemistry and a
01:03:33comfortability with
01:03:34you.
01:03:35Like I really do.
01:03:36It's been a great
01:03:3724 hours and
01:03:38we're like you
01:03:39know the
01:03:40chemistry in your
01:03:42head like
01:03:43endorphins are
01:03:44starting to go
01:03:44dopamine is
01:03:45starting to go
01:03:45serotonin is
01:03:46starting to go
01:03:47and then when we
01:03:48slow down for a
01:03:49second and we
01:03:50go like oh
01:03:51is this even
01:03:52real?
01:03:52Like you know?
01:03:53Yeah.
01:03:55But with what
01:03:57I've been doing
01:03:58over the last
01:03:58four months
01:03:59three and a half
01:03:59whatever you
01:04:01know I'm able to
01:04:01look at things
01:04:02much more
01:04:02level headedly
01:04:03like for this
01:04:06to seriously
01:04:06work it's
01:04:07going to be
01:04:07slow.
01:04:11It's just
01:04:12because you
01:04:13know.
01:04:14Yeah.
01:04:22Yeah.
01:04:23Really grateful
01:04:24I've got you and
01:04:24I'm glad we can
01:04:25have these
01:04:25conversations and
01:04:26me too.
01:04:31That conversation
01:04:32today did throw
01:04:33me a little bit.
01:04:35He needs space.
01:04:37This is what
01:04:38tends to happen
01:04:39when I meet
01:04:40men.
01:04:41There's amazing
01:04:41chemistry to start
01:04:42with and then
01:04:44suddenly they'll
01:04:45start to pull
01:04:46away.
01:04:48It feels like Sam
01:04:49is losing interest.
01:04:50You do what you
01:04:51need to do.
01:04:54I just want to
01:04:55try and do this
01:04:56right.
01:05:00I had so much
01:05:02hope that this
01:05:03experience would be
01:05:04different for me.
01:05:06So I am a little
01:05:07bit confused and
01:05:09honestly a little
01:05:10bit disappointed.
01:05:17The island will
01:05:18force all our
01:05:19couples to
01:05:20confront their
01:05:21bad relationship
01:05:22habits from the
01:05:22past and face
01:05:24their own red
01:05:25flags in order to
01:05:26create a long
01:05:27lasting relationship.
01:05:29Water feels
01:05:30nice.
01:05:31And after being
01:05:32stranded for 24
01:05:34hours they're
01:05:36about to receive
01:05:37a wedding gift.
01:05:38Oh!
01:05:39Oh!
01:05:40What is that?
01:05:41Let's go.
01:05:42Oh I hope
01:05:43there's snacks in
01:05:43it.
01:05:44I hope there
01:05:44is.
01:05:48What is that?
01:05:51This mysterious
01:05:52orange crate
01:05:53What's going on
01:05:54here?
01:05:55Is the first of
01:05:56many that will
01:05:56arrive throughout
01:05:57their time on
01:05:58Honeymoon Island.
01:06:00Great!
01:06:01Finally!
01:06:01Something's landed
01:06:02on our island.
01:06:03They'll contain
01:06:04surprises,
01:06:05challenges and
01:06:07tests to
01:06:08accelerate their
01:06:09bond and push
01:06:10their relationships
01:06:11forward.
01:06:12Ah!
01:06:12Alright, let's
01:06:14go.
01:06:14This is
01:06:14exciting.
01:06:16Ready?
01:06:17Three, two,
01:06:18one.
01:06:19Oh my God.
01:06:21Go.
01:06:25Oh my God.
01:06:27Today's crate
01:06:28celebrates our
01:06:29couple's nuptials.
01:06:31Wow.
01:06:32That's cute.
01:06:33Look at us.
01:06:34And brings a
01:06:35message from home.
01:06:36What have we got
01:06:37here?
01:06:37Yeah.
01:06:39Kind words of
01:06:40wisdom and support.
01:06:41Haven't seen one
01:06:42of those in a
01:06:42while.
01:06:43I know, right?
01:06:43Technology.
01:06:44What have we got
01:06:44here?
01:06:45For our isolated
01:06:46couples.
01:06:47Hello.
01:06:48Hi.
01:06:49Hi, Denny.
01:06:50My name's Emily.
01:06:51I'm Denny's best
01:06:52friend.
01:06:53Yeah.
01:06:54She's never been
01:06:55the sort of person
01:06:56to follow the
01:06:57crowd.
01:06:58I'm so happy that
01:06:59she's taken this
01:06:59risk in trying
01:07:01to find love.
01:07:02Oh, I love her
01:07:03so much.
01:07:06Ooh.
01:07:07Hi, Manuel.
01:07:08It's my sister.
01:07:09I can't believe
01:07:09you're married.
01:07:10I just really
01:07:12hope what you
01:07:13gain from this
01:07:14whole experience
01:07:14is that you
01:07:15are so worthy
01:07:16of being loved
01:07:18no matter the
01:07:18situation.
01:07:20She's beautiful.
01:07:23Other messages
01:07:24will contain
01:07:25reminders as to
01:07:26why they've
01:07:27committed to
01:07:2721 days of
01:07:28isolation.
01:07:30No, I think
01:07:30you should go
01:07:31first.
01:07:31To help them
01:07:32avoid relationship
01:07:33mistakes from
01:07:34the past.
01:07:35I feel like
01:07:36Tom is
01:07:37holding back a
01:07:38little bit.
01:07:39I would love
01:07:39to break down
01:07:40his walls and
01:07:41get to more
01:07:42the nitty-gritty
01:07:43of why he's
01:07:44pulling away a
01:07:45little bit and
01:07:45understand who
01:07:46he is as a
01:07:46person.
01:07:48Well, Thomas
01:07:49Brown, how did
01:07:50we end up here?
01:07:51Hear me out,
01:07:52but that's my
01:07:52brother-in-law.
01:07:53You're on an
01:07:54island and you're
01:07:54married.
01:07:55Something that we
01:07:56didn't think we'd
01:07:56be saying a few
01:07:57months ago, but
01:07:58here we are.
01:07:59We know that you
01:08:00had a pretty bad
01:08:02break-up a couple
01:08:03of years ago and
01:08:04took a toll on
01:08:05you, and it's
01:08:07been a bit of a
01:08:08struggle for you
01:08:09ever since.
01:08:10You haven't been
01:08:11able to, you
01:08:12know, find the
01:08:12perfect girl.
01:08:15You've got so
01:08:16much to offer.
01:08:17You're a tremendous
01:08:17bloke, and the
01:08:19girls tell me that
01:08:19you're not too bad
01:08:20on the eye either,
01:08:21so that's probably
01:08:21a good thing.
01:08:23We're all so proud
01:08:24of you, mate, and
01:08:25all the best.
01:08:26That's funny.
01:08:29Do you want to
01:08:31tell me about your
01:08:32ex?
01:08:37There's a time in
01:08:38my life where I
01:08:39found someone that
01:08:40I thought was going
01:08:41to be the person
01:08:42that I'd marry and
01:08:43spend the rest of
01:08:44my life with, but
01:08:44yeah, it just
01:08:45didn't work out.
01:08:50She kind of ended
01:08:51things out of the
01:08:52blue, and I think
01:08:54that's probably why
01:08:55I've struggled dating
01:08:58after that.
01:09:00I think I've been
01:09:01looking for that
01:09:03same kind of
01:09:03connection that I
01:09:05had with her.
01:09:12Yeah.
01:09:14Do you feel that,
01:09:16you know, you're not
01:09:17completely over her
01:09:18in that case?
01:09:19After hearing about
01:09:35Tom's past
01:09:35relationship, Emily
01:09:37is desperately
01:09:38trying to find out
01:09:39why he's pulling
01:09:40away from her.
01:09:42There's a time in
01:09:42my life where I
01:09:43found someone that
01:09:44I thought was going
01:09:46to be the person
01:09:46that I'd marry and
01:09:47spend the rest of
01:09:48my life with, but
01:09:49yeah, it just
01:09:49didn't work out.
01:09:55Do you feel that,
01:09:56you know, you're not
01:09:57completely over her
01:09:58in that case?
01:10:00Um, I'm completely
01:10:07over her, but
01:10:09there's a slight fear
01:10:10of getting in a
01:10:11situation where, you
01:10:12know, I make a
01:10:13commitment to the
01:10:13wrong person and
01:10:15it ends badly.
01:10:19You know, you fall
01:10:20in love with them
01:10:21and you think you're
01:10:22going to start a
01:10:22life with them, but
01:10:23then it doesn't go to
01:10:24plan and things end.
01:10:26And then you go
01:10:27through that trauma
01:10:28of another breakup.
01:10:29So I end up
01:10:31cutting things off.
01:10:33So I don't have a
01:10:33chance to, you know,
01:10:35to have that
01:10:36rejection.
01:10:36Have you always been
01:10:54the one to break
01:10:54things off?
01:10:56I probably have been
01:10:57the one to end things.
01:11:00I think.
01:11:02I'll start dating
01:11:04someone and then
01:11:05after a few times
01:11:07being with them,
01:11:08there's something in
01:11:08my gut that tells me
01:11:09it's not going to
01:11:11work out.
01:11:12So I usually just
01:11:14cut things off without
01:11:16really letting them
01:11:17know why I'm
01:11:19cutting things off.
01:11:20Or give them
01:11:21excuses for other
01:11:22reasons as to why I'm
01:11:23cutting it off, I
01:11:24guess.
01:11:25So you tell them
01:11:26lies?
01:11:28Um, no, I
01:11:30wouldn't say I'd
01:11:30tell them lies.
01:11:32Um, or maybe a
01:11:35white lie.
01:11:37Um.
01:11:39This whole situation
01:11:40is really triggering.
01:11:41I've been lied to in
01:11:42the past and I'm
01:11:43constantly getting
01:11:44ghosted.
01:11:45His past relationships
01:11:46have sort of moulded
01:11:48him into who he is,
01:11:49which is someone who
01:11:50runs away quite easily
01:11:52and doesn't really
01:11:54give things a chance.
01:11:56But that's kind of
01:11:56part of the reason I
01:11:58took up this experience
01:11:59was that you don't
01:12:01have that opportunity
01:12:02to, like, just cut
01:12:04things off and run
01:12:04away.
01:12:05It is a scary thing
01:12:07to keep trying with
01:12:08Tom, but I think
01:12:10this island is a
01:12:11great place to move
01:12:13past that sort of
01:12:15issues that we both
01:12:15have.
01:12:18Do you feel like you'd
01:12:19get things better off
01:12:20your chest if you
01:12:21started opening up and
01:12:22maybe that would help
01:12:23you in relationships?
01:12:23Yeah, definitely.
01:12:26Emily, I think that
01:12:27would help, but
01:12:28stubborn and it's hard
01:12:31for me to do that.
01:12:32Yeah, I'm not going to
01:12:32give up at this point
01:12:33in time.
01:12:34I'm going to keep, you
01:12:34know, keep trying at it
01:12:35and see if we can
01:12:36develop something with
01:12:38these little sparks.
01:12:40I'm a very good talker,
01:12:42if you haven't noticed.
01:12:43I have noticed.
01:12:45In no way am I, like,
01:12:46ready to throw in the
01:12:47towel and give up.
01:12:49I really want to break
01:12:50my bad habit of running
01:12:52away.
01:12:53I need to be open to
01:12:55this.
01:12:56I really like Emily and
01:12:58moving forward, I think
01:12:59I just want to continue
01:13:00having those conversations
01:13:01with her and getting to
01:13:02know her and just see
01:13:03where it goes.
01:13:04I'll make you talk
01:13:05more.
01:13:07Great.
01:13:15So far, the messages
01:13:17from home have been
01:13:18crucial in offering
01:13:20insight into each
01:13:21other's behaviour.
01:13:23Let's do it.
01:13:26Sam has asked that we
01:13:28take things slow, which
01:13:29I'm completely happy
01:13:30with, but it feels like
01:13:32rejection and it feels
01:13:34like he's losing interest
01:13:36in me already.
01:13:37So I'm a little bit
01:13:38worried about where I
01:13:39stand with Sam.
01:13:41Hi, Sam.
01:13:42I'm so excited to be able
01:13:44to send this message to
01:13:45you.
01:13:46It's your mum.
01:13:46Yeah, it's mum.
01:13:48Sam, it's been a huge
01:13:50year for us, for the
01:13:51family and for you in
01:13:52particular.
01:13:53You know, losing your
01:13:54dad at your age is really
01:13:57difficult.
01:13:59And it's been a tough
01:14:00ride for all of us.
01:14:03I know your dad's proud of
01:14:04you.
01:14:06To your new partner in
01:14:09life, he's got a massive
01:14:10heart.
01:14:10I'm very biased, but, you
01:14:13know, I'm his mum.
01:14:17Relationships are not easy
01:14:18and just throwing love
01:14:20into it doesn't make it a
01:14:22magic formula.
01:14:24Please work at it.
01:14:26Be kind to each other.
01:14:27Reflect on each other.
01:14:29Reflect on who you are and
01:14:30who she is.
01:14:31I miss you already.
01:14:33Love you, mate.
01:14:34Bye.
01:14:35Love you, mum.
01:14:35She's wise.
01:14:38Ah, yeah.
01:14:43Seeing him get emotional
01:14:46about the message from his
01:14:47mum was really touching.
01:14:50Need a minute?
01:14:51I'll be right.
01:14:54Um.
01:14:56Oh, we've just been through
01:14:58like, we've been through so
01:15:01much like as a family.
01:15:04And we've just both been
01:15:07each other's rocks like so
01:15:08many times.
01:15:09And I think my mum, she's
01:15:14really ready to see me just
01:15:15be like really happy.
01:15:16Yeah.
01:15:17Sam has been through a lot.
01:15:19I feel like I have a better
01:15:22idea of who Sam is right
01:15:24now.
01:15:24And I can understand why he
01:15:26might want to move a little
01:15:27bit slower.
01:15:28It just, it'd mean, it'd
01:15:29mean a lot to be able to
01:15:30find the one.
01:15:32Yeah.
01:15:33Yeah.
01:15:34I don't think he's lost
01:15:35interest in me.
01:15:36He's just going through a
01:15:37lot.
01:15:39I just need to remember why
01:15:41I'm here.
01:15:43You okay?
01:15:43Yeah.
01:15:45I know from my past
01:15:47experiences that chemistry
01:15:49fades and I came here to
01:15:52build a strong foundation
01:15:54with somebody.
01:15:55All right.
01:16:00So I'll go as slow as I
01:16:02need to.
01:16:08Across all six islands,
01:16:10the experience is underway.
01:16:13Nature's dishwasher.
01:16:15Oh yeah.
01:16:19Motorsport host Mike and
01:16:20TikToker Amy are coexisting
01:16:23and being civil with each
01:16:24other.
01:16:25Have we got enough for
01:16:27tonight?
01:16:27Do you reckon?
01:16:28We've got enough for like
01:16:29four days.
01:16:30Firework pro for days for now
01:16:34because the day has one last
01:16:38surprise.
01:16:39Oi.
01:16:41Yeah?
01:16:42We've got us something.
01:16:44Oh my God.
01:16:46What the hell's that?
01:16:48Did you put that there?
01:16:50No.
01:16:51Oh my God.
01:16:52Oh my God.
01:16:53That means to watch the show.
01:16:55I see the bottle and I was
01:16:57like, oh, here we go.
01:17:00Oh, what?
01:17:02What is it?
01:17:03What is that?
01:17:05Another container.
01:17:06I didn't even see it.
01:17:07Another container.
01:17:09It's a message in a bottle.
01:17:11Okay.
01:17:11Do you want to do the
01:17:12honest?
01:17:16Oh.
01:17:18What?
01:17:19Oh.
01:17:21Oh my God.
01:17:22Wow.
01:17:25Oh my God.
01:17:39Look.
01:17:41What?
01:17:45Look.
01:17:46What is that?
01:17:47The message in a bottle.
01:17:48A message in a bottle?
01:17:49A message in a bottle has washed
01:17:52up on the shore of all six
01:17:54islands.
01:17:55Okay.
01:17:56Do you want to do the
01:17:57honest?
01:17:58An invitation too good to
01:18:01refuse.
01:18:03Oh.
01:18:05Nearly weds.
01:18:06Tomorrow you will meet the
01:18:07other couples who are sharing
01:18:08this experience with you.
01:18:10The time has come for
01:18:11Couples Cove.
01:18:12A boat will arrive in the
01:18:14morning to collect you and
01:18:16take you to Couples Cove.
01:18:18Ooh, cowbonga.
01:18:20Couples Cove.
01:18:21That's exciting.
01:18:21Wow.
01:18:22I'm so excited to just hear
01:18:24like we're not alone in this
01:18:25and there's other couples going
01:18:27through this exact same thing.
01:18:29Prepare yourselves to share
01:18:30experiences with the other
01:18:32couples going through it with you.
01:18:34Yeah.
01:18:35That'll be interesting.
01:18:39Yes.
01:18:39Oh my God.
01:18:41Exciting.
01:18:44I'm looking forward to Couples Cove.
01:18:46I can't wait to tell the other
01:18:49couples about Mike and what I've
01:18:51had to deal with.
01:18:52What are you feeling about seeing the
01:19:02other couples?
01:19:04I'm excited.
01:19:05Hiya.
01:19:07It'll be interesting to see who is
01:19:09there.
01:19:11What do you mean?
01:19:14Something I haven't told you.
01:19:16There was one guy at the speed dating.
01:19:20Actually, you before.
01:19:23What, like you dated before?
01:19:25No, not really dated.
01:19:26Just matched on the apps.
01:19:29I'm like, yeah, okay.
01:19:32Just made some very vulgar comments.
01:19:34There is one particular person that I
01:19:39do not want to see at Couples Cove.
01:19:42When I saw him at the speed dating
01:19:44night, it kind of blew my mind that
01:19:45we were sort of in this experience
01:19:47at the same time.
01:19:48Fingers crossed he's not going to be
01:19:51at Couples Cove because I blocked
01:19:53him on everything after the comments
01:19:55that he made.
01:19:56He is just icky.
01:19:57I don't want him to be there.
01:20:00What stuff did he say to you before
01:20:02the speed dating event?
01:20:04Asked me what colour underwear I was
01:20:07wearing.
01:20:11I just think that's really
01:20:12inappropriate.
01:20:13I don't know the guy from A Bar of
01:20:14Soap.
01:20:15I don't know his sense of humour.
01:20:17He doesn't know mine.
01:20:18To me, this guy's character doesn't
01:20:20show that he's genuine and that he's
01:20:21actually looking for a relationship.
01:20:23For someone to be in their 30s and
01:20:24making those kind of ridiculous
01:20:26remarks is disgusting to me and just
01:20:29shows it not mature enough, not the
01:20:31kind of person I would want to be
01:20:33with.
01:20:34Which guy was it?
01:20:37His name's Mike.
01:20:41Cool, Kiwi, Mike.
01:20:44Sweet airs.
01:20:45I just don't want to have anything to do
01:20:49with someone who asks those disgusting
01:20:51questions.
01:20:52Yeah, right.
01:20:53Would you tell his wife that this
01:20:54happened if he was it?
01:20:56I definitely want to say something.
01:20:58I'd definitely let her know, like, the
01:20:59kind of person that I dealt with.
01:21:03I am someone who always has my girls'
01:21:05backs.
01:21:06If this guy is at Couples Cove, I will
01:21:08be pulling his wife aside and letting
01:21:10her know the disgusting comments that he's
01:21:13made.
01:21:16He's not going to be there.
01:21:17I wouldn't worry about it.
01:21:20Let's hope.
01:21:22Fingers crossed.
01:21:23Mike is not at Couples Cove.
01:21:25Still to come, six new couples are leaving their
01:21:34island bubble.
01:21:36I'm so excited to meet the other couples.
01:21:38And setting sail for Couples Cove.
01:21:41This is it.
01:21:42Welcome to our party.
01:21:46Where one groom's past will come to the
01:21:50surface.
01:21:51Oh, my God.
01:21:51Is that him?
01:21:52Yeah.
01:21:53And where secrets and scandals.
01:21:56Okay, so I'm going to talk to you about
01:21:58something.
01:21:58I met Mike prior to the speed dating night.
01:22:01Really?
01:22:02Rise up.
01:22:03I do have a question.
01:22:05In a tsunami of drama.
01:22:08Why do you have a relationship on the
01:22:09outside of this?
01:22:10Bam!
01:22:11That's a big bomb drop.
01:22:12Sweeping one couple into very troubled
01:22:15waters.
