MARRIED at First Sight stars Matt Murray and Whitney Hughes are rekindling their romance, a source tells The Sun.
The pair – who didn't get married on the E4 show – are battling to make things work after sensationally splitting from their 'spouses' to be together.
A source said: “Whitney and Matt are giving their romance another go. Feelings don’t disappear overnight.
"One minute they are on, and the next they are off. For now they are trying to make it work as it seems they belong together."
Whitney suffered a rough start on the series when she accused 'groom' Duka Cav of faking his feelings.
She's determined to make a go of it with Matt but said she'll call it quits at the first sign of trouble.

The source added: "They have given each other space, because the romance has not been an easy ride and Whitney has been leaning on her MAFS pals to get her through.

Matt, dressed in a smart green shirt and jeans, appears lost for words as he responds: "Erm. Coming out of the experiment we spent a lot of time together to start with didn't we?"
Talking of his former partner's visit to his Huddersfield home, he adds: "Whitney came up to mine, I went down to Whitney's.
