Married At First Sight’s season 12 finale was one for the books – but some contestants have been left reeling after some of the show’s favourite faces didn’t get couch time.

In the series’ final episode, participants got one last chance to sit with the experts and discuss their relationship while looking back on their marriage journey over the last three months.

Awhina Rutene, 31, who did in fact have a moment with the experts in the final episode, revealed that some of the couples were left ‘pretty disappointed’ that they didn’t get to nab a seat.

‘I thought everyone would get their chance on this couch, but it was only the people who went to the final round,’ Awhina told Pedestrian TV.

The bride then went on to reveal that a lot of people deserved to watch their playback, especially after travelling such a long way to be at the reunion.

‘We all gave up a lot to be there, and it would have been nice to have just seen or had some sort of validation,’ she added.

In the show’s final episode, couples got a chance to sit with the experts and discuss their relationship while looking back on their marriage journey over the last three months and what had transpired since the Final Vows Ceremony

Some of the faces that didn’t get couch time during the final episode were Eliot Donovan and Veronica Cloherty, Clint Rice and Lauren Hall, Billy Belcher and Sierah Swepstone and, notably, Teejay Halkias and Beth Kelly, who left the experiment the day of Final Vows.

Speaking of Beth’s snub from the couch, Awhina said the bride was ‘sad’ that she never got to watch her relationship play out like the others.

‘Think a lot of us wanted to see some of those good moments, especially if we were there for a few weeks,’ Awhina added.

During the bombshell finale on Monday, Awhina’s TV husband Adrian Araouzou was caught in multiple lies.

The controversial groom, 31, took to the couch with his former wife for a final chat with the experts and to watch their marriage journey unfold on the screen.

However, what the clip exposed was a number of lies the groom had told throughout the show’s 12th season and a disrespectful comment he made regarding his relationship with fellow participant Sierah Swepstone, 31.

The video showed the moment it was revealed that Adrian and Sierah had been out to dinner together behind their partners’ backs.

As feelings of betrayal were expressed at the table by both Awhina and groom Billy Belcher, 31, Adrian made a cheeky remark in his piece to camera.

‘What do you think I’m gonna do, steal your wife or something?’ he said.

‘I mean, I’m only human right,’ he added, boasting a cheeky smile.

Then, the camera cut to Adrian venting to Sierah and former groom Tony Mojanovski, 53, in the aftermath of the bombshell revelation.

‘We should just do that wife swap and see if they like it tomorrow,’ he sensationally told Sierah

‘We should do it,’ he reiterated.

The bombshell moment saw the camera switch to Jamie Marinos, 28, with her mouth aghast in shock.

‘This is like insane,’ she said in disbelief.

The moment comes after screenshots between Adrian and Sierah were exposed, showing the bride anxiously asking Adrian whether he’d told anyone about her attempt to convince the show’s producers to let her and Adrian return to the experiment together as a couple.

Elsewhere in the revealing clip, Adrian admitted to the producers he had lied about never cheating before, despite shaming Awhina when she admitted to cheating in the past.

What’s more, he was caught flirting with backup bride Max during the series’ final challenge, admitting that she was his ‘type’.

‘Is Max someone I would hang out with? Probably,’ he said in his piece to camera.

‘She’s Awhina 2.0,’ he added, which prompted multiple gasps from the show’s other participants.

Following the many shocking revelations in the video, Awhina sat teary-eyed, broken and blindsided by her former husband’s actions.
