In an unexpected twist, the pair soon made up and even got intimate. “Maeve opened up and I do feel we’re understanding each other more and more,” Joe said later. “I’m feeling great after last night. We had a really great time after getting to the villa and we did get to know each other on a deeper level. One thing led to another and that’s it, that’s all I’m saying.”
The roller coaster continued when, following the death of his grandad, Joe opted to leave the experiment. As far as we know, this couple never got back together.

Bailey and Rebecca
Still together
Rebecca entered the show looking for an “alpha male.” Although she didn’t initially think that Bailey was her type, the couple appeared to progress fast. After just two weeks, Bailey told Rebecca he loved her. Things hit another bump when Rebecca revealed to Bailey that she has a secret crush on Joe, one of the other grooms in the show. Rebecca apologised to Bailey, saying, “I am sorry for doing it, because we’ve always had this protective bubble around us of, like, having each other’s backs. I feel like I have, like, popped it, like, ruined what we’ve got.” Bailey replied, “I don’t think it’s popped. I do trust you. I haven’t changed how I feel, how I act. I don’t want to make it a big deal.” And with that, the pair agreed to move past Rebecca’s confession.
In a recent twist, fans think that Bailey and Rebecca may have split. Some viewers have noticed that Rebecca seems to be spending a lot of time in Liverpool — which, as fans probably know, was a point of tension for the couple during the recent homestays, with Rebecca explaining that she was worried about leaving home and about embarking on a long-distance relationship.
