Mafs couples that have stood the test of time
Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.
The pair couldn’t keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam’s Doncaster home.
Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau.
Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December.
Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: “I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out – and excited for everything to come.”
Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019.
Owen recalled: “I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work.
“While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in.
“The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if I signed up?’
“A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.”
Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson.
Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna’s vegan lifestyle, the show’s first same sex pairing are still going strong.
They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod.
Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: “We’re not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship.”
The former reality star opened up on the traumatic birth after a 12 hour labour and five days in the hospital.
She posted a of herself holding her newborn baby in tears onto her grid page as she accompanied the picture with an emotional essay.
Jess wrote: “This is a difficult one. But, I said I was sharing my whole journey, the good and the bad.
“This was 15 minutes after Mia was born, when they had brought her back to life and I finally got to hold her.
“When Mia was born she wasn’t breathing, and she also had the cord around her neck (I didn’t see as she was taken swiftly) Once I had birthed her, the midwife’s pressed an emergency button and about 10 doctors come running in and whisked her away.
She continued: “She had deflated lungs and wasn’t breathing. It took 15minutes to bring her back.”
The star admitted that the 15 minutes that the doctors spent working to save her child was the ‘worst moment ‘ of her entire life.
