MAFS UK stars Holly and Alex's hold hands and KISS in reunion after explosive exit

Married At First Sight UK star Alex and Holly spent most of their time on the show engaged in intense arguments before they made a dramatic exit last week

Married At First Sight UK stars Alex Henry and Holly Ditchfield seemed to forget about how dramatic their relationship was on the E4 programme as they were spotted enjoying a loved-up night out together.

The duo were the topic of conversation for concerned fans as their tumultuous romance almost always ended in a blazing argument on our screens. Many urged Holly to leave the relationship as they pointed out Alex's red flags while others pointed out how toxic they were for each other.

It all ended when they left the experiment after a massive row, with Alex taking to his Instagram after the episode aired to write: "Unfortunately, it just wasn’t meant to be. A lot of people wanted me and Holly to last the test of time, at times I wish we could have too. We shared some great memories together on and off camera. I wish Holly nothing but the best in the future, she deserves it! Speak to you all real soon! Love."

However, it seems like their romance is still on as they were pictured getting cosy in Manchester. They were walking down the road hand-in-hand on Saturday night before they shared a loving kiss in front of the cameras. Holly rocked a brown latex mini dress and black strappy heels. She completed the look with simple earrings and a black handbag.

Meanwhile, Alex kept it simple in a classic Palm Angels T-shirt and ripped distressed jeans. Alex has been a controversial figure on the show, with the Birmingham-based star being accused of being 'controlling', 'coercive' and 'chilling'. Many have begged the producers to remove him from the programme - which was filmed months before it aired.

A friend of an ex-girlfriend alleged that he had been abusive towards her in a social media post shared when the line-up of the show was announced. Women's Aid even expressed their "incredibly disappointed" sentiment towards the programme's creators for not ejecting Alex after accusations surfaced.

A representative for the controversial reality star also previously confirmed that he had recently served 24 days in a military prison for abandoning his role as a commanding officer at RAF Spadeadam in Cumbria to film the popular E4 programme. Responding to the backlash against him, Alex recently said he was 'having a ball'.

He took part in a Q&A session on Instagram, with one user asking him how he's been feeling mentally with 'all the backlash and allegations'. He said: "If you think the internet affects my real life ur mad. Half these people don't even like themselves that's why they got so much time to talk about me. I'm in real life having a ball. I'm getting mad love out here!! People stop me for pictures everywhere."
