#marriedatfirstsight uk followup one week on

Sam McDonald and Jack Finn-Kelcey were the couple that were matched in episode one but did not go through with the wedding due to Sam getting cold feet prior to the wedding supposedly because her family could not come to terms with her decision to marry.

It appears that through the power of social media the couple after the episode was shown were able to get in contact with each other and have found that they are a good match and are now dating.

Luckily for them they will be able to conduct the normal relationship process away from the cameras and without having first had the pressure of getting married.  Perhaps there is something in the whole matching process that had been devised for the show but due to the needs of todays television requiring a shock element the actual marriage part of the process is flawed. I wonder if there are dating agencies online or offline that have this matching approach and if they dont exist whether it could work.

As for Jason Knowles he who became the series rogue due to the way he was shown to have treated Kate after their wedding he has told his side of the story. It would seem he believes at part of the selection process they were given pictures of people to rate and he had Kates picture to rate and gave her a score of 2 out of 7. It is his belief that they had been told that they would not be matched with people who they had scored so low and also the question of Kates relationship hate of not dating smokers made them non compatible. It would seem (perhaps cruelly) whilst on honeymoon he had more fun talking to the barman than kate. As for  tinder well he is adament he only downloaded it as part of a but of fun with a friend and he had only signed up once he knew the relationship was over. So the question still remains as to how was the program edited and was it edited in such away to make Jason look to be bad. Only the producers, Kate and Jason know this.
