MAFS UK star Ross flooded with support after sharing devastating family news

MAFS UK star Ross McCarthy has been inundated with support from friends, family and fans after sharing some tear-jerking personal news on social media.

Taking to both Facebook and Instagram today (5 November), the 32-year-old shared a tragic collection of photos.

For those out of the loop with the romance experiment's recent goings-on, Ross is still paired with 29-year-old 'wife' Sacha, with the couple's relationship having gone from strength to strength in recent weeks.

They enjoyed a heavily loved-up honeymoon, but hit bumps in the rocky road to romance last month after both he and Sacha became embroiled in heated spats with their cast-mate Alex Henry.

Thankfully, however, following Alex's fiery exit from the line-up last week, the couple are once again able to focus on one another.

Among the many reasons that Ross became so popular on the hit reality series - as well as his adoration of Sacha and his respect of her family - was because of his beloved Nana, who appeared on the show several times to give him relationship advice.

Sadly, however, it is the same loving grandmother at the centre of Ross' latest heartbreaking news, revealing on Instagram today that she is soon to pass away following a 'rollercoaster' few months health-wise.

Sharing a collection of photos of his Nana on Facebook, the Channel 4 star updated his ever-growing fan-base: "There be no more pains your gonna go nice and peacefully. I’m going to miss you so much but I know you had a nice life."

Admitting in the caption that he'd miss being able to chat to his grandmother about the ins and outs of his new life in the spotlight, he described her as 'my queen, my world'.

Ross then continued to gush: "Well what can I say, the past few months have been a roller coaster. Her time is now coming to the end she’s 91 she’s nothing but a WARRIOR and an absolute FIGHTER.

"Your going back to your husband (granddad) your both gonna be back where your both belong your not gonna be on your own your going back to your family we all know they will look after you up there."

The on-screen star then penned: "Gonna miss you telling me all your past life stories your conversations can be for hours.

"I love you nana."

And as we say, Ross has since been inundated with messages of support from fans he's accumulated since the 2024 series of Married At First Sight kicked off.

"My deepest condolences may she rest in heavenly peace," one penned in the comments of his latest upload.

Another added: "You’re such a lovely man and the love pouring out from your photos and your beautiful words about your grandmother is clear to see. Sending love xx".

"Sorry for your loss brother, thinking of you all at this sad time," a third added. "What a queen x."
