Married At First Sight UK fans in shock at bride's actual age
The 2024 instalment of Married At First Sight UK finally landed on our screens last night (16 September) after much anticipation, and a handful of viewers have been left perplexed over one key detail.
The actual age of one of this year's love-hungry brides has been revealed, and let's just say, some fans are dying to know her beauty secrets.
Channel 4 has been teasing the brand new series of MAFS UK for what feels like months now.

After first dropping a controversial teaser clip - which saw a groom playing a prank on his future Mrs by wearing a rotten set of fake teeth as they exchanged vows - fans had a feeling they were in for a right treat.
And apparently, they were bang on the money.
Last night, we saw the first batch of this year's 16 couples matched by experts before embarking on the ultimate social experiment by marrying total strangers, who they meet for the very first time at the end of the aisle.
Just minutes into the debut episode, viewers were left baffled over one bride’s bizarre job outside of show.
Another set of fans claimed they were 'not okay' after the resident 'class clown' groom was seen to pull a second stunt during wedding after his bizarre teeth fiasco.
If that's not a pretty accurate representation of the head-spinning drama to come, then I don't know what is...
As we say, however, there was another key aspect of last night's episode that certainly set tongues wagging.
The moment that unlucky-in-love bride Richelle entered the show, not only were viewers in awe of her hopeful personality, but they were blindsided by her beauty - especially after she lifted the lid on her real age.
Prior to letting us know her general requirements for a man, she dropped the bombshell that she's actually 48 years old.
I know, can you believe that?
Well, apparently, you're not the only one after loads of viewers took to social media to share the shocked sentiment.
"How the hell is Richelle 48??" one begged.
Another continued: "Dam looking awesome for 48."
"48 or you mean 28?!" a third went on.
"Can we take a moment to appreciate how amazing she looks for 48!!! Wowwwz," another added.
Divulging what she wants in her future hubby, Richelle admitted: "The first thing I notice in someone is there energy. My perfect date is lots of drinks, lots of laughs and lots of food.
"My biggest deal-breaker is a man who is not masculine."
She went on: "The best thing that could happen is we have a lot of fun together and we enjoy the process with each other.
"I deserve love because everybody deserves love."
Aww!
