Michelle and Owen Jenkins from MAFS 2020 get married
MANY of us have made questionable choices after a few beers - but Owen Jenkins’ rash move likely tops them all., spotted an advert asking for people to marry a complete stranger on TV while he was down the pub - and after a couple more pints, he sent in an application.Luckily for Owen, it led him to meet the “love of his life”, Michelle Walder, and their touching romance was captured on
“When I told her what I was doing she laughed in my face for 10 minutes but then said, ‘Sure, absolutely'.” Owen says: “It puts quite a lot of additional pressure on you because if it doesn’t work, you have to go through the process of getting a divorce. He admits they could have sneakily found out each other's last names and looked each other up, but they chose not to because they "didn't want to cheat the process".
“As soon as I was at the end of the aisle and we had said our vows, I knew it was all going to be fine.” Michelle believes this time away from the production team helped them enormously and gave them the opportunity to have genuine chats. Owen adds: “We settled the debate in about 10 minutes, whereas on the TV show it was spread out over a few weeks."The Jenkins chose to stay together at the end of MAFS - but in the months that followed the experiment, Michelle had one concern about the relationship.
