With the help of MAFS experts Mel Schilling, Charlene Douglas and Paul Carrick Brunson, each of the singletons this year entered the experiment with the hope of finding their perfect partner. Despite their best intentions, not all of the cast found a romantic connection.

With the reunion coming up and the trailer promising fireworks and plenty of drama, viewers can't wait for the show to start up once again. With only three of the couples choosing to stay together, and the majority of the cast to parting ways, are any of the partnerships still together?
