MAFS UK viewers stunned as Alex and Holly are spotted kissing following dramatic show exit
Despite MAFS UK contestants rumoured to be contractually bound to remain hush-hush about any love life updates whilst the series is ongoing, one couple are sticking two fingers up to the rules.
Just days after leaving the romance experiment last week amid a blazing row - implying they'd finally split up for good - Channel 4 stars Alex Henry and Holly Ditchfield have been papped locking lips on a rather loved-up looking night out.
Despite the reality show's resident match-makers believing them compatible enough to wed, Alex and Holly's on-screen romance was far from smooth-sailing.

The pair joined the series later on as newbies and after enjoying a relatively easy-going honeymoon with one another, it didn't take long for cracks to show between them.
Not only did Alex find himself embroiled in several heated spats with his co-stars - in particular with couple Sacha and Ross - but he and his wife both refused to give up their own stubborn ways.
Their marital woes all came to blows between the pair last week, however, with Holly sensationally calling Alex out on his attempts to defend himself over his controversial behaviour - which has even seen him branded a 'misogynist' by cast mates and viewers at home - and branding her on-screen husband a 'bulls****ing b*****d'.
It sounds, however, as though the exes have somehow found away to push through their conflict, and were spotted this week enjoying some pretty heavy petting on the streets of Manchester.
Walking down the street hand in hand, the couple were met with a horde of paparazzi and opted to give one another a big sloppy snog, indicating that they'd rekindled their romance since leaving the show.
While Holly could be seen in a figure-flattering latex mini dress when taking on the northern city - completing the look with a classic black handbag - Alex kept it casual in a white tee and skinny, ripped jeans.
The pair's PDA comes just days after Alex slammed his former flame for her behaviour on social media, after the high-drama pre-recorded episode - during which the pair resigned from the show and went their separate ways - finally aired.
On 29 October, he shared several snaps from the instalment - many of which see Holly raising a finger at him whilst the pair rowed on the famous green sofa.
In the caption, he penned four condemnatory words: "Hurt people hurt people."
Minutes later, the MAFS UK star took to his Instagram Story, where he shared numerous screenshots of comments and messages he'd received from fans of the show.
One fan wrote in a comment that they were 'horrified' that no one 'had a go' at Holly for 'calling Alex a b*****d', adding: "If he had called her a b***h for example, we would not have heard the end of it."
Seemingly in agreement with the fan's observation, Alex went on to launch an online Q&A titled, 'Let's talk about it. Double standards?'.
After another viewer wrote to tell him they thought how Holly spoke to him was 'rude', he penned on his Story: "Imagine if I had pointed at her, raised by voice and called her a b***h."
As we say, however, it now looks as though they've left their dispute in the past... for now.
