"Josh, we can see clearly that you're pretty broken right now," expert John said, continuing: "I've never seen a relationship like this before in the experiment.
"We've also been around long enough to know there is no coming back for you in this experiment Josh, and we're not going to subject you any longer to this."

Melissa also claimed Josh was a 'very different person' in front of her compared to on camera, but did issue an apology on Instagram.

Josh hasn’t opened up about his romance with Lyndall, but it’s thought the pair first kissed the day after filming the reunion on 17th December, when the MAFS went for a night out in Sydney.
While their short-lived fling has now ended, it was only recently exposed to the entire cast in WhatsApp group chats for the brides and grooms.
Meanwhile, Josh has spoken about his experience on the show and even defended his wife on Instagram, writing: “Mel and I have had a chance to heal from our experiences.
"Let me very clear about one thing. What happened in the experiment happened between Mel and I - please do not attack Mel.
“It doesn't make me happy. It doesn't give me any satisfaction. It doesn't raise me up. At all."
