Lovebirds Cameron Merchant and Jules Robinson became the saving grace of 2019’s controversial installment of Married at First Sight, hooking viewers in with their rapid-romance and TV-gold proposal.
But Woman’s Day hears the duo’s upcoming nuptials could be in jeopardy, with their nearest and dearest concerned for the couple’s future.
