Are Samantha Moitzi and Al Perkins still together?
As far as the show goes, they are still together.
Both Sam and Al decided to stay together at the first and second commitment ceremony, which is a good sign, considering another married couple, Holly and Andrew, bowed out of the experiment early.
Things didn't start off the best for Sam and Al, however.
On their wedding day, Sam was taken aback by Al's vows, in which he referred to Eminem lyrics. And after he performed the worm in front of their guests, she came to the conclusion that he lacks "emotional maturity". Al on the other hand, was very pleased with his new wife, gushing: "I think it's a match made in heaven for sure, I'm happy, she's happy... I don't know if she's happy but I assume she is."

Sam began to warm to Al by their honeymoon, but still wondered if they'd be able to make their relationship last.
Speaking to the cameras, she said: "Al is super fun and he's very beautiful to look at but true love takes a lot more than perfect bone structure. I laughed at his jokes, I think that he's funny... he's super young. I don't think him being young is an issue right now, but we'll see."
However, by the second commitment ceremony, the duo appeared to have ironed out their issues, as they talked to the experts, And they later revealed they'd been intimate with one another for the first time.
We won't know until the series ends whether they're still together outside of the show, but there's a few clues, which suggest that Sam and Al are very much on.
On February 19th, months after filming, Al was spotted out with his co-stars proudly wearing his wedding ring. They are also still following each other on social media, which is a promising sign.
