They’re the one couple who are still together after Final Vows , but Rhi Disljenkovic and Jeff Gobbels aren’t the only people who found love on this year’s season of Married At First Sight . Despite being matched with other people in the experiment, Jacqui Burfoot and Clint Rice have been dating since filming wrapped late last year and are now living together in Tasmania . It’s not uncommon for MAFS participants to start dating someone else in the experiment once their on-screen ‘marriage’ ends, with Jono McCullough and Ellie Dix still going strong after meeting on the show last year.

2023 co-stars Evelyn Ellis and Duncan James have also become one of the most popular couples to emerge from the show, even though they only started dating after their season finished airing. RELATED: Speaking with Yahoo Lifestyle ahead of Sunday night’s reunion episode , however, Rhi and Jeff admit they don’t think Jacqui and Clint should be considered as one of the experiment’s success stories. “Yeah, look, I guess it's not really a MAFS success story, is it? Because the experts didn't pair them together,” Rhi says.



“But I think it's great that they found one another and they look like they're having a great time.” Jeff adds that Jacqui and Clint’s relationship can’t be compared to anyone else’s in the experiment because they didn’t go through the same challenges. “The only thing that MAFS did was introduce them to each other through different partners,” he says.

“So they just met each other through the show, but they didn't go into it together, they didn't do any tasks together, and they didn't live together in the experiment. “So I would definitely say it's not a MAFS success story, no.” Jacqui spills on romance with Clint Ahead of Sunday night’s episode, which will see Jacqui and Clint finally acknowledge their romance on the show, the 29-year-old bride shared an insight into their relationship during a rogue radio interview on Tuesday morning.

“[Clint] reached out to me and wanted to get to know me, and after Final Vows he did invite me down to Tassie to spend some time with him,” she told The Fox’s Fifi, Fev & Nick . “We do have a 14-year age gap, though, so I was a little bit nervous about that. But then after meeting him, the age gap didn’t matter.

It just didn’t really affect us at all.” SHOP: Jacqui went on to share that she believes Clint was attracted to her on the show because of how different she is from the other female participants. “If you speak to Clint, he will explain that out of the group, I was the most normal girl who had a life and was down to earth and doesn’t take herself too seriously and loves having a laugh,” she remarked.
