Mackinley and his wife on the show, Domynique Kloss, asked for a divorce on Day 12 of the extreme experiment, but Gina and Clint -- despite lacking a mutual attraction -- continued on with their marriage, hoping their friendship could organically turn into something romantic.
During the May 3 episode of Married at First Sight: Afterparty, Gina watched back a Season 16 clip of Clint having a heart-to-heart with Mackinley at the gym.
"No moves made yet?" Mackinley asks.
"No moves," Clint confirms, referring to how he and Gina rarely slept in the same bed and never even kissed.
"So not vice versa either? She hasn't tried to put a move on you?" Mackinley asks.
"No, I grazed her butt once and I was like, 'Oh my god, I'm so sorry!' She was like, 'You don't have to be apologetic,'" Clint reveals.
Mackinley proceeds to tell the cameras in a confessional, "I am surprised that Clint and Gina are not attracted to each other. I think Clint's a good looking dude, and I think Gina is a good looking girl."
"Me and Gina are both entrepreneurs, hard workers, goal oriented," Mackinley continues, seemingly pitching why they'd make a better match.
"Pretty sure she found me attractive, and I clearly think she's attractive," he adds. "So yeah, I wish maybe me and Gina would've been matched over me and Dom."

Previews for a future Married at First Sight episode have also shown Mackinley revealing that he slid into Gina's DMs, apparently behind Clint's back.
When Afterparty host Keshia Knight Pulliam was about to broach the subject of Mackinley's crush on Gina, the hair salon owner from Nashville jokingly stood up and said, "I'm going to see myself out."
But Keshia pushed anyway and questioned Gina, "Hypothetically, is Mackinley someone you would ever date?"
"Yeah, I'd do this," Gina responded. "From what I knew about him, I think everyone on cast though is great."
Gina also said that if Clint felt the need to apologize for grazing her butt, she probably needed to let her guard down more.
"He might be in his head, which is really interesting to me because I don't think Clint is really attracted to me either," Gina reasoned.
"We've talked about [how] we are perfect on paper -- and emotionally, as far as we're both very logical thinkers. And so, for us, it's really just the chemistry [that's the problem]."
During a sitdown chat with Pastor Calvin Roberson and Dr. Pepper Schwartz with only a few days to go until Decision Day, Gina admitted how she thought she and Clint were mismatched.

But according to Gina, she's not really attracted to that type of personality, explaining, "Everyone is consistently laughing and he brings this energy that's... a bizarre energy I've grown to love it about him. But at first, the crass sense of humor [caused] almost a feeling of secondhand embarrassment."

Clint, at the time, wondered why Gina had waited so long to come up with these complaints about him.
Gina explained to Keshia on Afterparty how it took her time to process what she was thinking and feeling about Clint and why their relationship "was not working."
Gina said in the last week of the process, she did introspective work to figure out what was really bothering her.
"Once I did, it all came out," Gina confessed.
"I don't know how Clint doesn't know that he is that way... He'll tell you, 'I live on Front Street.' And so it's starting to feel like, 'That's cool as a fun friend,' but it wasn't really feeling like a marriage."
Gina said going into the show, she wanted a funny guy and the life of the party.
"And I'm learning, 'Okay, maybe I do need someone a little more reserved.' I always thought I was the loud one," Gina said, adding, "I'm learning about the things that aren't there for me, personally."
Clint claimed on a previous episode of Afterparty that Gina didn't act like a wife at all throughout the experiment and she was a totally different person off-camera. He alleged that Gina sent him mixed signals.
With Decision Day right around the corner, it appears there's not much hope for Gina and Clint's relationship.
Married at First Sight's sixteenth season also stars Airris Williams and Jasmine Secrest, Nicole Lilienthal and Chris Thielk, and Kirsten Grimes and Shaquille Dillon.
