Married at First Sight UK couple Tasha Jay and Paul Liba have split, MailOnline can reveal.
The pair have gone their separate ways following a year-long romance, leaving only two contestants from the 2023 series still in a relationship.
Tasha and Paul got married after meeting for the first time at the altar during filming of the E4 dating show last year.
But after committing to each other at their final vows last November, the couple’s romance has now ended, with friends close to the reality stars saying they remain amicable.
Shona Manderson and Matt Pilmoor are the last remaining pair still in a relationship after connecting off camera when their respective marriages failed.
A source told MailOnline: ‘Tasha and Paul tried to make their relationship work for several months but have decided to end things between them.

‘They fell in love while filming Married at First Sight UK but struggled to see a future, they continued to live separately and in the end, grew apart.’
Confirming their split on Instagram, Tasha said: ‘It is with a heavy heart that I am announcing Paul and I have decided to part ways.
‘There isn’t any major reason, we have just come to terms with the fact that we are not right for each other.
‘Paul is the loveliest guy I’ve ever met and I’m grateful for the time we’ve shared together and I’m glad that we can remain friends.
‘I’m utterly heartbroken that I’m having to write this post, but it is best for both of us.’
She added: ‘Thank you to everyone who has supported us as a couple. I hope you can now support us on our individual journeys.’
The couple were put together by the show’s relationship experts and at the most part managed to avoid any drama during their appearance on MAFS.
They follow the likes of former co-stars Georges Berthonneau and Peggy Lawrence who split earlier this year, as well as Jordan Gayle and Erica Roberts.

Shona found her happy ending with Matt after her marriage with Brad Skelly failed and the tattooed model was accused of gaslighting, causing producers to axe him from the series.
Matt married Adrienne Naylor but the pair’s romance was short-lived, leaving the personal trainer free to connect with Shona.
Married at First Sight UK returned with a new series in September but not one couple from the show remains in a relationship.
Viewers hoped Sacha Jones and Ross McCarthy would have a happy ending but the pair split shortly after filming for their series ended.
Sacha was heartbroken after Ross moved on with a new girlfriend despite declaring his undying love for his wife and promising their future together.
MailOnline has contacted Tasha and Paul’s representatives for comment.
