Yahoo News MAFS UK's Hannah shares relationship status update with other groom Ryan
Married at First Sight UK star Hannah Norburn has confirmed her relationship status with co-star Ryan Livesey.
The reality TV stars entered as two separate intruder couples on the latest season of the dating show, with Hannah matched with groom Stephen Nolson and Ryan partnered with bride Sionainn Carmichael.
Both matches eventually proved to be unsuccessful, with Hannah and Ryan and their respective partners leaving the experiment single.
Following their show exit, rumours circulated that Hannah and Ryan had formed a connection, which Hannah has since addressed in an Instagram Q&A.

"Me and Ryan built a really lovely friendship when we both got out of the experiment, and that is all it has ever been," she wrote on her Instagram Story (per Heat).
"We have never dated and we have never been in a relationship," she clarified. "If anybody actually took a minute to ask us, we would have both happily confirmed that, but no!
"Instead, it was playground whispers, rumours and a public ambush based off of hearsay YET again."

Hannah's reply appears to be a subtle dig at some of her fellow co-stars, who viewers saw her fall out with on the show.
During the couples' retreat, Hannah had a confrontation with brides Polly Sellman and Holly Ditchfield, where she was accused of being flirtatious towards other husbands in the experiment, including Ryan and Holly's groom Alex Henry.
Hannah and Stephen called it quits in the commitment ceremony after the retreat. Meanwhile, Sionainn and Ryan left the show an episode later following an argument off-camera.
Following the broadcast of their exit episode, Ryan shared a statement on his social media saying he hoped "things would have turned out differently", but wished his ex-bride "all the best for the future".
