But eight months on from tying the knot, the couple realised married life was a lot more difficult than they had anticipated.
Once the cameras stopped rolling, they began fighting 'over the little things, like cooking, cleaning and doing the shopping', they told Sunday Night.
The program also featured Max Delmege and his wife Sam, who are happily married with a 40-year age gap and Brynne Edelsten, who was once married to Geoffrey Edelston despite being four decades younger.
