Married At First Sight insiders have revealed that only three couples are still together, with a staggering nine pairings calling it quits before the series has finished airing.

It appears that despite relationship advice from experts Charlene Douglas, Paul Carrick Brunson and Mel Schilling, most of the partners have decided to part ways.

This revelation comes after MAFS star Matt Pilmoor, 29, was pictured on a 'date' with fellow cast member Shona Manderson, 31, despite the groom still being married to Adrienne Naylor, 27, on the show. More recently Arthur Poremba, 35, was reportedly seen kissing another woman on a night out whilst married to 34-year-old Laura Vaughan on the series.

A TV source told the MailOnline: "Only three couples are still together after filming for the series ended in May.

"Considering they committed to each other for the rest of their lives, it's not great and what's more is a few of the show's stars have even moved on in new relationships.

"Some of the contestants that are still working on their marriages feel that other contributors didn't take the experiment as seriously as they could have, and fame definitely played a part in the decisions made."
