Last night's episode of First Dates left viewers wondering what had happened to adorable couple Thomas and Imi, as there was no update on the status of their relationship at the end of the show.

RadioTimes.com reached out to Channel 4 for an answer on the couple's relationship status and, sadly, a we can confirm Thomas and Imi decided it wasn't meant to be after all.
