With a season mired by over the top drama, walk outs, betrayals, and even bullying, we were perhaps na\u00efve to think the finale may arrive with anything less than shocks and (even more) betrayals. <\/p>\n<p>But amongst all the drama of the evening, there was one bright light shining through it all. Of course, we\u2019re talking about Steven and Rachel. Thankfully, these two didn\u2019t do the usual reality TV run around with one another, leaving the other to sweat through ambiguous vows until the final moment. The couple\u2019s relationship was somewhat of a rollercoaster, which was reflected in the vows, but they didn\u2019t use this moment as an opportunity to sow doubt, either. Instead, they were upfront with one another about their feelings and quickly put any doubts to rest for one another. <\/p>\n<p>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.elle.com.au\/culture\/entertainment\/mafs-couples-still-together-australia-2026-season-13\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Which MAFS Australia 2026 Couples Are Still Together? We Break It Down<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur journey hasn\u2019t been smooth sailing,\u201d Rachel said, detailing the many ups and downs through their experiment. But in the end, their vows reflected the happy place they\u2019d landed at. \u201cYou\u2019ve let me be me, completely. And, that\u2019s all I\u2019ve ever wanted,\u201d Rachel told Steven in her emotional final vows. \u201cI choose you. I want this. I want you.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>When it was Steven\u2019s turn, he addressed their past issues before quickly returning serve with a love declaration of his own. \u201cOf course, not everything was easy. I won\u2019t lie, there have been moments in the experiment where I seriously questioned everything,\u201d Steven said. \u201cI remember the moment things shifted, it was the way you looked at me when I finally let my guard drop. The way you stood by me when I thought I didn\u2019t deserve it. I stopped trying to protect myself from being hurt and holding back in fear of rejection.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou saw me, you accepted me, all of me, Steve-O. You\u2019ve taught me that love isn\u2019t about perfection, it\u2019s about being real,\u201d he said. \u201cI choose you. I choose your smile, your laugh, your fire.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Are MAFS Couple Steven And Rachel Still Together? <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Though their final vows were undeniably heart warming, it seems that Rachel and Steven sadly broke up shortly after filming wrapped. \u201cRachel gave everything to that relationship and everyone saw Steven start to come around at the end,\u201d a source reportedly told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.refinery29.com\/en-au\/mafs-2026-are-rachel-and-steven-still-together\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Refinery29 Australia<\/a>. But apparently, the final straw was when Steven failed to make any plans to visit Rachel.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, Steven has reportedly been spotted hitting the town with fellow contestant Joel, and Rachel was rumoured to be getting cosy with Big Brother contestant, Bruce Dunne, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newidea.com.au\/entertainment\/married-at-first-sight\/mafs-australia-2026-rachel-bruce-big-brother-relationship\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">New Idea<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Another year of Married At First Sight Australia has officially wrapped and the ending was somehow even more&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":592668,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[64,63,134,37689,108353,16995,427],"class_list":{"0":"post-592667","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-mafs","12":"tag-married-at-first-sight","13":"tag-married-at-first-sight-australia","14":"tag-tv"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/592667","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=592667"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/592667\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/592668"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=592667"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=592667"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=592667"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
