Are Married at First Sight's Dean and Sarah still together?

No, they were the second couple to leave the series, making the decision during their third commitment ceremony.

For Sarah, the physical attraction never manifested and while Dean was holding on to hope that a "spark" would form, some stern words from the experts meant they ultimately made the decision to stop beating a dead horse.

During their emotional final commitment ceremony, Mel Schilling told Sarah she deserved to be with someone she fancied the pants off, and likewise, Dean deserved to be with some who fancied the pants off of him.

MAFS UK - Dean reveals what he deserves

After leaving the show, Sarah thanked Dean in a heartfelt message, saying: "Firstly, thank you to Dean - you are an amazing person; you were my rock during the really difficult times and my biggest supporter.

"I am so thankful to have shared this experience with you, and I am forever grateful for the happy (and hilarious!) memories we shared during this process."

While he didn't find love, Dean said going on the show was the "best thing I could have ever done for myself".

What's happened to MAFS couple Sarah and Dean?

It was a tale of two halves for this new MAFS couple as Dean was happy new wife Sarah had passed his "vibe checks" when he rapped his vows, however, for Sarah, it was all too "over the top".

Concerned about his personality and looks, Sarah wasn't won over by her new husband. She told the cameras: "Dean is such a lovely guy but I'm going to have to be honest, I don't want to rip his clothes off. I'm just sensing a friend vibe more than a romantic vibe and I haven't come her for a friend."

Dean also referred to himself as a "mummy's boy" which also didn't go down well.

Matters didn't seem to get any better on their honeymoon but Sarah posted some pictures that didn't make the final MAFS cut showing they also had plenty of fun together.

She captioned the photo: "TV gave you the drama but here’s the real Maldives fun, drinks and a lot of laughs."

Dean responded and said: "See you did laugh at my jokes sometimes." The past tense of the comment has let some to believe they split.

Despite this, the couple put on a united front during intimacy week as Sarah tried to reignite the spark with Dean.

Unfortunately, in-laws week proved to be challenges for the married couple. One of Dean's friend admitted he was unsure if he there was a "genuine connection" between the duo. While Dean was open to the feedback, he felt differently - he believed in time, things could change for the better.

It wasn't until the third commitment ceremony when expert Mel said they were "clutching at straws" that they decided to leave the experiment. They had originally written "stay" on their boards, but after an honest conversation they changed their decision and parted ways.
