MAFS UK expert SLAMMED as he admits big problem with show’s marriages – as fans brand it ‘unsafe’
MARRIED At First Sight expert Paul C Brunson has revealed a major flaw with the reality show.
The relationship guru admitted the show’s experts are only privy to what goes on at dinner parties and commitment ceremonies – and are kept in the dark when it comes to all of the couples’ other antics.
The revelation came when a viewer complained on X: “Experts need to stop this nonsense pretending they don’t see any footage and start outing people like Eve to the group.”
Eve and Charlie’s relationship has left viewers uncomfortable.
Last night Eve was accused of being a “master manipulator” and for “gaslighting” Charlie, who was shocked that her partner thought she was being a “bully”.
There were tears and threats to walk away as the couple thrashed out their issues.
Paul responded to the tweet: “For the record, we don’t see any footage. This is what makes it so challenging for us. We only see what happens at the dinner parties and commitment ceremonies. Everything else we see for the first time with you when the show airs.”
His honesty proved to be a bit of a bombshell to disappointed viewers who felt the experts were across every single element of the show.
One person wrote: “Think maybe you need to start and seeing what happens for peoples safety really as we see stuff that should have been stopped and called out.”
Another complained: “I’m sorry but that can’t be right?! So you’re giving advice on situations you know nothing about as you haven’t seen it play out? And only see the footage when we do … months later when the programme is finished? Surely you can see this is absolutely ridiculous!”
A third vented: “Then you’re failing in a duty of care in setting people up with potential abusers without any adequate oversight into what’s going on…”
Eve, a fitness instructor from Belfast and now infamous star of Mafs, married co-star Charlie the day they met.
They pair were intimate on their wedding night, but Charlie quit their honeymoon in tears, accusing Eve of blowing hot and cold.
Later, in front of the group Eve snapped at Charlie: “Don’t be mean to me.”
The experts were gobsmacked by her remark, with Paul saying: “Strong word.”
Her comment led the other women to accuse Charlier of being “a bully”.
The Sun revealed the pair do not last after the marriage experiment.
Eve was caught kissing and holding her new lover in the airport before flying back to Belfast from Ibiza.
An onlooker told The Sun the couple was seen kissing multiple times, and when Eve noticed them, she put up her hood to better hide her face.
They said: “As a fan of MAFS UK I was shocked to see Eve with her hand around someone else other than Charlie.
“I was really rooting for them and they were one of my favourite couples.”
“[Eve] seemed really loved up with the girl at the airport. She had her arm around Eve’s waist as they were waiting to check in their bags.
“[Eve] seemed in a really bad mood. Then when we took the photo she put up her hood as if she didn’t want to be seen”.
