Beth Kelly and Teejay Halkias didn’t even make it to Final Vows because production didn’t want to cover the costs when they knew the couple wouldn’t leave together.
Jacqui Burfoot and Ryan Donnelly – AKA one of the season’s most up-and-down couples – surprised no one by deciding not to stay together. However, Jaqui decided she couldn’t leave before sharing some iconic lines at their Final Vows ceremony.
“In a world of red flags, you are the red carpet,” she said to Ryan, adding, “I’m not a rehabilitation centre”.
