Having discovered that his partner had cheated on him with another groom, David Cannon used wife Hayley Vernon's toothbrush to clean their toilet. The incident caused production to be shut down for a short time while producers dealt with both scandals.[9] At the following commitment ceremony, the experts decided to remove Hayley and David from the experiment due to their toxic behaviour towards each other.[10]
