Married At First Sight UK couple reveal they’re engaged two years after meeting on E4 show
MARRIED At First Sight’s Jenna Robinson and Zoe Clifton have revealed they have got engaged.
Two years on from appearing on the E4 reality show and they are set to make things official.
Despite being called Married At First Sight, the couples taking part in the experiment aren’t really officially married.
But now, Zoe and Jenna are set to walk down the aisle for real.
Revealing the news on Instagram, the happy couple posted: “We’ve been keeping a little secret..
“A week ago the absolute love of my life asked me to marry her from me being a little slow on the uptake, thinking Zoe had just gone a little overboard for date night to Bobo setting himself on fire it was perfect and chaotic and just very “us”
“Not to be cliché but I genuinely didn’t think that this type of love actually existed, to have someone who loves you, cares and respects you as much as you do them, is the most incredible feeling.. and now I get to marry my best friend instead of a stranger!
“I guess we have a particular TV show to thank for setting us up on the wildest 1st date ever.. so thank you @e4mafsuk@e4grams.
Jenna ended the post with: “I adore you @zoeclifton.. We are going to make the cutest little old married lesbian couple ever!!!
and what a way to celebrate pride month ”
Despite a rocky start to their relationship where they clashed over Jenna’s vegan lifestyle, the two women proved to be the strongest couple on their season of MAFS.
Speaking to The Sun last year Jenna revealed the secret to their success, and told us: “We’re not legally married, and I never felt like we were.
“I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship.
“We discuss potentially getting married in the future and I’m sure that’ll happen one day.”
Zoe described the process as a relationship in reverse, and said “You have to face all the issues normal couples don’t face until one or two years down the line.
“Once you get to the end of that, if you do, you get the exciting dating stuff to look forward to.”
Not everyone on the show had such a happy experience, and the couple had sympathy for their unlucky in love co-stars.
Zoe said: “It’s sad really that more couples didn’t walk away together. I think it’s an overwhelming amount of pressure when you first leave the show and the run up to it being on TV.
“I think if more couples had pushed through that they’d potentially still be together.”
