Readers who watched the 2024 instalment when it first landed in September that gentle giant Orson was paired up with a formidable businesswoman in Richelle, with cracks beginning to show in their marriage after only a matter of days.
Whilst fans applauded Orson for opening up on heartache he endured at the hands of cheating ex-girlfriends, Richelle slammed her husband for his sensitivity.
Meanwhile, Hannah joined the romance experiment slightly later down the line as a newbie, when she was paired up with Stephen. Sadly, however, they were also seen to be at logger-heads throughout the series.
In the following episodes, fans started to sense something special growing between Hannah and Orson, with many even suspecting the pair would swap partners to be together.
Their suspicions were later confirmed, however, when news broke that they had actually been locking lips behind the scenes, and Hannah and Orson - along with Stephen and Richelle - were forced to respectively call it quits and exit the show.
Thankfully, however, the blossoming attraction between Hannah and Orson doesn't appear to have been in vein, as the pair have this week given us an update on their relationship after the show.
Revealing that they're very much still an item, Hannah shared a video on Instagram recreating a famous TikTok trend which saw Orson throw her over his shoulder and run away with her, to the tune of Fitz and The Tantrums' 'Out Of My League'.
"Always sweeping me off my feet @orson_nurse," she captioned the sweet clip, along with a love-heart emoji and hashtags reading, '#mafsuk #mafs24 #husbandwifeswap #noregrets."
And by the sounds of things, fans couldn't be happier for the new couple.
"I’m so glad you’ve both got each other. You now both have someone who respects them as a person," one penned in the comments.
Another wrote: "Good for you to at least you will be happy together and not having people treating you like dirt."
"Both finally with a partner who respects them," a third noted.
And another gushed over Orson: "Yayyyyy happy for you both a real gentleman".
Hannah's update comes just days after she revealed that the show's producers had actually invited her and Orson back to the series following their departure, to rejoin the experiment as a brand new couple.
Sadly, though, she went on to admit that neither of them wished to rejoin their former cast-mates due to the backlash they'd likely receive.
Hannah wrote on Instagram last month: "Despite being offered the opportunity to re enter the experiment together Orson & I decided jumping back into that stressful environment after all that had happened just wasn’t the right thing for either of us to do.
"I will always be so grateful for the loyalty, support & respect Orson showed me from day 1 and every day since - he’s a real one for sure and I’ll always appreciate him finally bringing my smile back after such a tough time."
