Married At First Sight Australia fans stay calm, because Evelyn Ellis and Duncan James have officially confirmed they’re dating.

Speaking to Nine Australia, Evelyn and Duncan revealed they had been getting to know each other as friends after the MAFS Australia reunion as they both live in Sydney.
Duncan said: "We started hanging out a little bit after the show. Everyone's sort of friends in the cast, and obviously me and you living in Sydney we probably hung out a little bit more.

The MAFS Australia stars sparked dating rumours after being spotted dancing at a club together in Sydney.
They were also reportedly seen getting cosy at a party in February and went on a number of dates.
While initially denying claims they were an item back in April, Evelyn and Duncan have finally gone public.
And it looks like the rest of their co-stars are happy about their budding romance, with Evelyn and Duncan saying they had been ‘welcomed’ as a couple in "the most positive way".
But it looks like Duncan’s ex isn’t on the same page, after she shared a cryptic post about the couple.
When quizzed on how she felt about Duncan and Evelyn's relationship, Alyssa simply responded 'RIP'.
