On last night’s episode of Married at First Sight, our first couple left the experiment shortly after moving in together: and no, surprisingly it wasn’t Amanda and Tash.

Poppy decided to pack up and leave the experiment, leaving behind a devastated Luke who had previously called the three MAFS experts his last shot at finding love.

Things weren’t easy for Poppy and Luke from the get-go: though they seemed well-matched on paper, Poppy struggled with missing her kids and while it seemed like Luke did everything in his power to progress their relationship, Poppy seemed to shut off completely.

It was a producer who told Luke on last night’s episode that Poppy had left and while he was understanding he was also left a bit teary. The last interaction we had seen of them on the show was Luke trying to make Poppy a nice dinner while she shut it down.

Fans of MAFS were left feeling super sad for Luke:

Since the episode aired, Poppy has admitted she didn’t think she’d find love with Luke:

“I’ve said from the beginning that I’m not going to stick around for something that isn’t going to be true love,” she told 9Entertainment. “He was so overly positive and I was clearly struggling and he would be so positive about it and that just made me want to, you know, throw him down a staircase.”

For his part, Luke had nothing but nice things to say about Poppy.

“I think generally she is a really nice person and she’s hilarious and she’s got a good heart. I think in the experiment she just got overwhelmed and she didn’t know how to control it,” he told the site.

Good luck out there Luke, we have no doubt you’ll find your perfect match:
