Luckily for her, Steven, who was waiting at the end of the aisle, was more than impressed by het OTT arrival. When they met at the altar, the dad-of-two was overjoyed by his match, and Nelly couldn't stop smiling as she looked up at her tall new hubby - so are they still together now?

Things continued well throughout their wedding reception and even into their honeymoon. But things did end up turning sour between the pair, so here's everything we know about what happened...

Are MAFS UK Nelly and Steven still together?

No, Nelly and Steven are no longer together. While they seemed to be heading towards a split anyway, things came to a crashing end when Steven's active, and verified, Hinge profile was exposed.

Steven's use of the dating app was revealed by Nelly's flatmate during Homestay. Once it came to light, Nelly swiftly removed her ring and declared their marriage over.

The dad-of-two has since defended himself and claimed it was all part of a plot put together by producers to tell their "story".

At the final commitment ceremony, Steven reflected on the impact Nelly had on his life, saying: "Being introduced to you was a very big moment in my life in terms of impact." He further explained that she helped him "grow as a person", becoming more vulnerable and open with his feelings during the experiment.

After the show aired, Nelly posted a series of images of her in a bath surrounded by receipts on Instagram. This was a reference to the printed screenshot of Steven's Hinge account that she brought to the final commitment ceremony.

She captioned it: "Can I get a refund please?? 🧾🧾🧾 #MAFSUK #exhusband."
