As the show started to play out, Duka and Whitney are together as they tied the knot in front of their friends and families.
Whitney would be meeting her new husband 31-year-old Duka who described himself as a “jack the lad”.
Duka was born in the former Yugoslavia, but moved to the UK when he was ten because of the civil war.
But he was bullied at school but grew more confident as he got older and now looks up to his parents’ marriage who have an “unbreakable bond”.

Alongside an array of sad-faced emojis, one person penned: “Already feeling sorry for Duka. Such a sad upbringing.”
Echoing their comments, someone else said: “My thoughts are with Duka. He seems so lovely.”
While a third remarked: “Duka is an absolute darling. My heart bleeds for him.”
Unfortunately, when Duka and Whitney met for the first time at the ceremony, it wasn’t exactly love at first sight.
Duka commented how his new bride looked amazing, but in a separate interview, Whitney said she wanted a “brick house” of a man and he was more of a shed.

She even commented away from the ceremony: “This is like the worst thing I’ve done in my f*****g life,” leaving fans worried that she wasn’t going to go through with it.
Duka’s dad showed concern during the wedding breakfast as well, telling the cameras that he felt disappointed for his son.
