The Metropolitan Police has asked potential victims of sexual assault who appeared on Married At First Sight UK to contact them after two women alleged they were raped and another made claims of sexual misconduct.
Two women told the BBC’s Panorama they were raped by their on-screen husbands, while Shona Manderson accused hers of sexual misconduct during the filming of the Channel 4 reality TV show.
A Met spokesperson said: “We are aware of media reporting relating to allegations of rape and sexual assault following the airing of a television programme on Monday, 18 May.
“At this time, we have not received any criminal reports in relation to this matter. We will be making approaches to the relevant production teams to ensure that anyone they have spoken to is aware of how to report any criminal allegations to police.
“We continue to encourage anyone who believes they have been a victim of sexual assault, no matter how long ago it happened, to get in touch with us.”
In a statement to the programme, Ms Manderson’s on-screen partner Bradley Skelly said he categorically denies “any allegations of sexual misconduct, or that he was controlling”.
Channel 4 said in a statement released on Monday: “In April, Channel 4 was presented with serious allegations of wrongdoing against a small number of past contributors, allegations that we understand those contributors have denied.”
