“It really excited me!” Dan laughs. “It was good fun kissing a stranger,” with Matt letting out a chuckle as he reflects, “We were both in tune with each other and felt the vibe instantly.”

Here, Dan and Matt talk to us about their new life in Northern Ireland, second wedding plans and their fears of being trolled…
