Viewers were left shocked by the behaviour of a contestant on Married at First Sight UK - with many fans switching off the programme. E4 show Married at First Sight UK married three of the seven new couples in the first of its 30-episode run which started on Monday, August 29 and fans are already unhappy.
The new series welcomes 16 singles preparing to marry a complete stranger and producers have hinted that it's set to be bigger than ever with more episodes than before. Married at First Sight pairs single people together based on advice from relationship experts to see if they can make their relationships last. This season is also one of the first to include LGBT+ contestants who joined the hen and stag parties.
The couples will head off on a honeymoon before moving in together later in the series. The relationships will be assessed at weekly dinner parties by experts; Paul C Bunson, Mel Schilling and Charlene Douglas. Each person will be asked if they want to stay or go at the end of the meal.
