There has been plenty of drama over on Married at First Sight UK.

And two people who have been at the centre of it are Alexis Economou and Ant Poole.

The pair both entered the series hoping to find love, but things didn’t exactly start off well for them.

While Ant’s partner Nikita was kicked off the show for ‘aggressive’ behaviour, Alexis and her partner Jordon Mundell decided to go their separate ways after their honeymoon.

Are Alexis and Ant from Married at First Sight UK still together?

Ant and Alexis are no longer together and decided to leave during the third dinner party.

After returning to the series, Ant realised he didn’t have romantic feelings for Alexis and felt their connection was more ‘friendly’.

Alexis told the other contestants: "For the past two days I’ve slept on the sofa because I don’t want to be in bed with someone who feels they don’t fancy me.

"I’m not here to make a friendship. We’re sitting here at a table tonight and I feel alone again."

After Alexis accused Ant of 'mugging her off', he hit back: "No one’s mugging you though, you’re a beautiful girl. I feel like I’ve been open and honest with you."

Alexis then said: "We are leaving."

This comes after Alexis hinted she is still single after she shared a photo on Instagram alongside fellow contestants Marlyse Corrigan and Amy Christophers.

She added the caption: "I hope you have all enjoyed watching MAFS this week.

"I’m so overwhelmed with the love & support from everyone, I honestly appreciate you all! I may not have found love but I found forever friendships! Love you girls!"

Where is Alexis from Married at First Sight UK now?

Alexis appears to have gone back to modelling and regularly shares updates on Instagram.

She is seemingly living in London and having the best time with her friends and family.

There is no sign of Ant or any other man on her social media…
