Married At First Site's Kasia shares picture of her pregnant at 15

Married at First Sight Uk bride Kasia London has shared a series of personal photos on her Instagram page in an insight into her life before the show. The post, captioned "for inspirational purposes only" showed just how much her life had changed in recent years.

Posted after she decided to leave her marriage to Kwame Badu on the show, the mother of two, 36, hoped to inspire her new legion of fans with her post.

Shared alongside a series of photos - including houses she has lived in - Kasia announced she was a teen mum, sharing a photo of her pregnant aged 15. She said that she hoped showing how far she had come would inspire her followers.

Alongside a description of the photos she captioned the post: “I make the most out of any situation. I'll seek n find happiness in any situation. I'll confront what I need to confront IN MY OWN WAY & IN MY OWN TIME, gracefully. Well.... my method is clearly working.

“I'll never forget where I come from. It's quite startling, because I'm not even close to my FINAL DESTINATION. “N.B: NO handouts, NO gimmicks, NO debts!!”.

And it looks like many of her 153,000 followers were inspired by her openness. One wrote: “I needed to see this today. Got to keep going. I was a relatively young mum and a single parent due to an abusive relationship. But I am rebuilding [heart emoji] You have been amazing to watch and I wish you even more success.”

While another had a career idea for Kasia: “Love this post and wish we got to hear more of your back story with out interruptions.. I vote kasia on a podcast please xx”.

One interruption the fan is likely referring to is Kasia's onscreen husband Kwame who she decided to leave at the end of the show and end their marriage. He had drawn a lot of criticism after publically stating his disdain at her body. Speaking to the Sun about why she chose to end the marriage she said: : “I came on the experiment to find love and a man that would stand by my side through thick and thin.

"But, it turns out that the man selected for me would only stick with me through THIN.

"I left Kwame because he didn’t appreciate me and he publicly said I was bigger than what he normally goes for. As a woman you kinda know if a guy is into you and I feel strongly about empowering plus size women so I was never going to accept Kwame’s 'fat shaming' antics."
