As Aleks and Ivan sat down in front of the relationship experts, they first explained how they’d realised they were in love after leaving the show together.
‘We’re in a really good place, but we got very heavily pressured within the walls of this experiment,’ said Ivan, confirming they’re now in an official relationship.
Josh Pihlak was first to voice his doubts, saying: ‘I’m so f**king confused.’

Cheating accusations: Michael Goonan (pictured), who initially accused Aleks of cheating with a mystery man on the show, stood by his claims during Sunday’s finale, which she denies
After the group then watched footage back of Aleks and Ivan’s final dinner party, the couple addressed the cheating allegations they faced before quitting the show.
Michael Goonan initially accused Aleks of cheating with a mystery man after she went to a Serbian event, and he stood by his claims during Sunday’s finale.
‘Can I just say something? Do you think if I really cheated on my husband we’d still be sitting here together? Not where we come from, morally,’ Aleks hit back.
‘We definitely had no cheating scandal. I went out with a woman and there was the 50-year-old restaurant owner there. If that’s cheating, you can say that’s cheating.’
