Married at First Sight couple Luke Fourniotis and Mel Akbay finally
And now pictures have emerged that the 30-year-old groom had a 'secret' meeting with another bride before quitting the show.
The farmer was seen out about with Bec Zacharia whose pairing with groom Danny Hewitt has proved to be a stormy match all season.
Bec and Luke looked friendly as they stopped by Camy's Chicken shop in Green Square, not far from the Married At First Sight hotel.
Luke, dressed in a T-shirt and white shorts, looked perfectly at home with the controversial bride.
Bec was seen grinning widely as she shared a joke with Luke, who she once called 'cute' on MAFS.

The 35-year-old account manager dressed casually for her outing in a white knit sleeveless top, blue jeans and sandals.
Wearing her hair tied back, Bec accessorised with a pair of attractive cream drop earrings.
At one point, the pair were seen carrying on a deep conversation as they waited for their order.
According to a MAFS insider, Luke and Mel had struck a close friendship with Bec and Danny while filming the show.
The bond reportedly caused issues for producers who had warned the foursome that couples were not supposed to hang out together, without a camera present.
This is because the show's creators don't like to miss any potential drama.
It comes after Mel and Luke called time on their relationship, with the pair admitting it was an amicable split.
'I couldn't have foreseen how hard this experiment would be,' Mel told Luke.
