Don’t put the confetti away just yet, as there is more to celebrate as this week on MAFSUK three brand new couples will walk down the aisle to meet their spouse. . Whilst for some, it looks like a smooth flight, for others there is turbulence before they even jet off on their honeymoon.
Plus – this week E4 are introducing a brand-new themed week with ‘In Laws’ week. The couples already in the experiment will be visited by friends and family where they’ll have honest and frank conversations as to where their relationships are. Some couples are in wedded bliss, but love-birds Nathan and Lacey hit a major stumbling block when a mix up of words finds Nathan in extremely hot water with his mother-in-law, reducing her to tears See for yourself in this clip: https://
Looking ahead, there are more dinner parties, explosive commitment ceremonies and a shocking couples retreat where rumours of infidelity race around the group.
