Ben Lyall and his girlfriend of just one year, Christie Cassar entered The Super Switch to put their relationship to the test by swapping partners.
Now questions are being raised as to whether the former Bachelorette star, 35, is on the show for love or fame after he revealed he only signed up for the experiment so Christie, 28, could 'experience a reality dating series'.
Ben, who appeared on Georgia Love's season of the Channel 10 dating franchise back in 2016 told Now To Love this month: 'I just wanted her to also experience it.'

'It was like an amazing emotional journey. It was so surreal and you know it was like an exciting time - doing media and just the production and everything,' he added.
The very short duration of the pair's romance - just a year - has also raised eyebrows.
A spokesperson for Channel Seven told The Daily Telegraph on Monday Ben and Christie's short-term relationship was not a concern in the casting process.
