During Retreat Week, Alyssa accused Duncan of not spending enough time with her, telling her husband: "Since we've been here, you've literally just been with the boys. Like I literally haven't spoken to you or nothing, all day." 

Then, following a tense Feedback Week in which Duncan said he felt "shut out" by Alyssa, he eventually chose to end their relationship during the final vow ceremony. 

"I know what love and a great relationship is and we both deserve that," Dunan told his wife. "But our views on what a healthy relationship is seem to be apart.

"Maybe it's our personalities or differing mindsets. Either way, the gap seems too big to bridge. I don't want to hurt you or continue getting hurt so I have to say goodbye."

Alyssa, who was keen to make the relationship work, was shocked by Duncan's decision. "I was not expecting that," she said, before walking away in tears.
