MAF’s UK Matt and Whitney declare their love after just TWO weeks at final vows
>
They have become one of the most talked about couples of this series after leaving their respective partners and starting the experiment again together.
And Matt Murray shocked viewers again on Thursday when he confessed his love to Whitney Hughes after just two weeks of dating — days after he left viewers cringing over his tattoo tribute to his bride.
The tattooed barber, 32, and legal PA, 31, made their commitment decisions at final vows as the couples poured out their hearts and revealed whether they had chosen to stay or walk away from their marriage.

Speaking at home for the ceremony, Matt admitted he had his doubts about whether their whirlwind romance would survive in “the real world.”
Miles away from her house, Whitney repeated, ‘Once we get out, it’ll be different, is it just the honeymoon or a holiday romance? I’m afraid to put my feelings into things.’
In the end, the controversial duo decided to renew their vows and once again confessed their love to each other.

Whitney began, “I didn’t meet you at the end of the aisle, but I never thought I could fall so hard and so fast. These feelings are super new to me. I’ve never been in a relationship before.
“For the first time in my life, I’m running towards my feelings and not away from them.”
Matt added, “Before we could explore these feelings, every other couple in the experiment had something to say. Is this all too much too soon? But if you know it, you know it. I love you, Whitney.’

Elsewhere, power couple Chanita and Jordan had their doubts after he showed a “red flag” at the last dinner party, where he confessed he “wouldn’t date someone he didn’t love.”
Jordan explained his feelings to Chanita, admitting, “I feel like I’m walking on eggshells and if I’m afraid to be myself, that’s going to be a problem.”
She added: “I feel like you don’t feel the same and don’t let me fully into your life. But our time apart has made me realize how much I miss you. So the decision was easy for me,” Chanita concluded, saying she would stay.

“I’m ready to give you all the reassurance you deserve, no matter the hardships we’ve endured, I wouldn’t change a thing. I’m a better and stronger person because of you,” Jordan gushed.
Earlier this week, Matt made viewers cringe over his tattoo tribute to Whitney as he pulled his pants down to show it off while enjoying a private dinner at London’s famed Shard restaurant.
They started playing a game of who knows who is best and Whitney asked Matt what she would win as ‘prize’.

Feelings: Jordan explained his feelings to Chanita, admitting: ‘I feel like I’m walking on eggshells and if I’m afraid to be myself, that’s going to be a problem’
Stay: But he added: ‘I’m ready to give you all the reassurance you deserve, regardless of the hardships we’ve endured, I wouldn’t change a thing’
He replied, “I can give you something more permanent than a prize.”
Suddenly he got up and pulled down his pants to reveal a new ink he had for Whitney that read, “I appreciate you.”
He said, ‘When we had a little break, I remember in the kitchen saying ‘I appreciate you’ and you said ‘I appreciate you too”.
“We now have that little memory that isn’t going anywhere.”

Permanent Reminder: He got “I appreciate you” tattooed on his leg because it’s a phrase they said to each other when they first started talking
After Matt revealed his tattoo, Whitney then handed him a photo of the two of them, which happened to have the words, “I appreciate you too,” written underneath.
But not everyone was a fan of the reveal of the tattoo.
He wrote: ‘NO WAY HE GOT A TATTOO #mafs #mafsuk #MarriedAtFirstSight #MarriedAtFirstSightuk.’
“Matt’s tattoo for Whitney is horrible.”
“Sorry… but that tattoo is so fucking cringe… #MAFSUK.”
Hmmm: Fans of the show weren’t all thrilled with the tattoo tribute
Matt was married to Gemma Rose, 31, and Whitney was married to Duka Cav, 31, but they decided to leave their partners and start dating.
They were allowed to stay on the show as a dating couple, rather than a married couple, to see if their romance could work out with the help of the experts.
They also told each other that they were in love after only a week of dating.
But not everyone was on board with the clutch and Thomas Hartley, 31, yelled at Whitney in a recent episode, “You’re a liar and an adulterer.”
