Meanwhile Rebecca Zukowski, 51, and Steve Powell, 50, arrived separately in a stark contrast that mirrored their fractured on-screen connection
Brook cut a casual figure for the airport run, wearing an unzipped black leather jacket over a simple top and jeans, while holding a designer monogram bag.
Her hair was worn loose and natural, and she appeared in high spirits as she gestured while speaking to Chris.

Chris opted for a laid-back look, wearing a black T-shirt teamed with grey track pants and sneakers, keeping things low-key as he wheeled their suitcase through the departure area.
In one moment, the pair stood close together and wrapped each other in a warm embrace, seemingly unconcerned about the fallout from their turbulent marriage playing out on screens.
Another showed them smiling as they chatted, before heading inside the terminal together.
Despite the turmoil surrounding their brief on-screen union, they appeared comfortable and familiar in each other's company, moving easily through the airport as a pair.
However, the mood was noticeably different for Rebecca and Steve, who arrived separately and appeared downcast following their emotional breakdown on the series.

After weeks of mounting speculation, Daily Mail can reveal that Brook is the bride accused of secretly reconnecting with her ex while still part of the experiment, and is now pregnant.
In footage obtained by Daily Mail, Brook is seen kissing her ex-boyfriend Harry as the pair decorate a Christmas tree together in October – just weeks after her on-screen marriage to Chris came crumbling down off-camera.
The intimate video shows the couple unable to keep their hands off each other, sharing several kisses and cosy embraces inside an apartment as they put up Christmas decorations weeks before December had even arrived.
For cast and crew, the reveal was less a shock and more a confirmation of what many already suspected.
