MAFS UK: Are Emma and Caspar still together?
Caspar didn't hold back on the honeymoon!
Last updated 26th Sep 2024
The brand new ninth series of Married At First Sight UK has already brought the drama, with eight weddings in total taking place, including the nuptials between Emma Barnes and Caspar Todd.
As the show airs on E4 over the next few months, here's everything you need to know about Emma and Caspar's relationship, and if they've lasted outside of the experiment.
Are Caspar and Emma still together?
Although series nine is airing now, it was actually filmed earlier this year, so the couples are now out of the experiment. However, as per MAFS rules, the contestants very rarely give anything away about what happened once they stopped filming, meaning we don't actually know the final outcome of Emma and Caspar's relationship.
However, the pair do still follow each other on social media, like their co-stars Kieran and Kristina.
After their wedding episode aired, Emma took to Instagram to share a photo, tagging Caspar in the post. She wrote: 'And we’re hitched. 🥰 The support has been overwhelming, thank you thank you thank you!! Don’t we look fab 😍😍 @casparinthecountry the Winston to my Bridget 😂 just hoping the nervous cackle will subside?! Cannot wait to see our next couples this evening 🥹 #mafs #mafsuk'. (sic)
What happened on their wedding day?
Caspar and Emma were the second couple matched together by the experts, with their wedding airing during the first episode on Monday 13th September.
Whilst Emma seemed thrilled with her husband at the altar and during the ceremony, even getting a long very well with his sister, Caspar wasn't as convinced, airing his worries to his family and the camera.
Caspar voiced his concerns that Emma reminded him too much of his sister Daisy, who he has had a mixed relationship with in the past.

What happened on their honeymoon?
Following their wedding, Emma and Caspar headed off to Jamaica on their honeymoon.
After having initial concerns about his instant attraction towards his new wife, Caspar decided to let Emma know how he was feeling, admitting he hasn't felt an instant spark. He said: "I've been struggling, I don't know if you've felt it. But I haven't felt that spark I was hoping to feel."
After asking what she'd done to make him feel that way, Caspar admitted she has a lot of similarities to his sister, adding: "Watching you and her laugh together, there's an element and sort of mannerisms - I'm equating one with the other and it's not good."
The conversation between the pair soon turned into what 'type' Caspar usually goes for, with Caspar shockingly saying: "I've rarely gone for the curvier person," leaving Emma in complete shock.
Hitting back at his harsh remarks, 31-year-old Emma told her husband: "If you didn't think I was sexy in my f---ing wedding dress and my gorgeous bikini today, I don't know what hope there is.
"But what we're here to do is look beyond that and what you need to do is look beyond that because my personality, my confidence should help you be more confident and you should see qualities bigger than my clothes size.
"You need to work on your view of women."
Later on in the episode, Caspar and Emma sat down for another chat, where Emma told him he could have phrased his wording a little better. She said: "I'm a size 14, I'm not a f---ing monster."
A frustrated Caspar then walked away from Emma, asking the camera crew to 'cut' filming.
After spending the night apart, the pair met up once again the next morning, where they both revealed they were open to carrying on the journey, admitting they both want things to work out.

Holly broke the news as they were getting their photographs taken, with Alex admitting it wouldn't be his preference due to not having any experience as being a dad.
