Polly, however, has no doubt in her mind.

The careers advisor, 28, told : "I now 100% believe that they are together.

"If I'm wrong, then I'm wrong, but there is no way that they can be how they've been together and spend as much time as they have been together and going off on these holidays and always being on TikTok live together while in bed together - I think Stevie Wonder could see what's going on there.

"I'm not an idiot. I think everyone knows what's going on there and maybe they're trying to long it out to try and stay relevant."

During their time on the show, Adam and Polly's relationship was notably turbulent.

Adam admitted that Polly wasn't his "usual type" and the pair were often seen in blazing rows on-screen.

At the final dinner party, tensions escalated when Polly accused Adam of being a "narcissist", leading to a heated argument that culminated in Polly throwing red wine in his face.

In contrast, Amy and Adam's connection appeared to deepen during the wife swap week - where they even shared a bed.

And, earlier this year. they enjoyed a romantic cruise holiday together too.

In last night's reunion episode, they were asked about their relationship status, with Adam replying: "There’s been no kissing… so far."

Speaking in a confessional with Adam, Amy said: "I’m not sure what the future holds for me and Adam. I don’t think the book is fully closed."

But her jaw dropped when Adam replied: "Maybe some little mini Adams could be on the cards… or maybe we could just practice.”

Adam recently insisted he isn't ruling out a relationship with Amy in the future.

He told The Sun: "I feel like there is chemistry between me and Amy. We do flirt a lot, there’s a lot of flirt banter.

"Whether something progresses, who knows.

“I like how it is at the minute, we’re friends that flirt.

"Who knows? Amy’s single. I think everyone is just too busy with their careers at the moment."

He previously said: "Me and Amy, she's like the female version of me. We're so alike.

"We've both said to each other, yeah, we find each other attractive but our friendship's that good we'd never want to spoil that."
