MARRIED At First Sight UK viewers have slammed the show’s experts for scolding Johnathan Wileman – despite letting his co-star Matt Murray “get away with aggressive behaviour”.
Matchmakers Charlene Douglas, Paul C Brunson and Mel Schilling tore into the Yorkshireman for saying he didn’t fancy girls with “horse legs”.
Charlene Douglas, Mel Schilling and Paul C. Brunson have been criticised
Johnathan faced a tough time from the matchmakers
Matt Murray quit the process early on in the Reunion show after sitting down with Whitney
Johnathan – who married Sophie – was warned by Mel: “This is what I want to pull you up on. You say ‘that’s what I do, I speak first and think second’.
“You’re an adult, it’s time to step up and take responsibility.”
Moments earlier, Mel and the others sat down with Matt and his ex Whitney.
Fans pointed out her approach towards Matt was a lot softer.
She told him and Whitney – who he left his wife Gemma for – “It sounds like there were some hurdles in the real world.
“Observing you last night it appears there is some chemistry still between you.”
A viewer argued: “Is it me or do the experts have clear favourites? Matt & George behave in the way they do & are still treated like the golden children. Yet the experts treat Thomas, Johnathan & Jordan like crap for behaviours that aren’t half as bad. It’s baffling.”
Another said: “The constant patronising of Johnathan has been bad.He has never raised his voice or displayed aggressive behaviour unlike some others.
“He has admitted his faults and has tried to improve on himself without feeling like he can’t be himself. There is an air of snobbery.”
A fan added: “Actually so typical the only one these so called experts have taken to account and criticised this series is Johnathan. Easy target as usual because he hasn’t got a card to pull.”
Matt was accused of being “aggressive” by his ex Gemma after a fiery relationship on-screen.
He caused controversy over after he was seen jumping into bed with bride Whitney.
During the second Reunion show, Matt shocked fans by walking out.
It came after he delivered an apology about his “unacceptable” behaviour at the Reunion.
He was first to face the matchmakers with ex-partner Whitney Hughes – but addressed the whole group after a fiery argument last night.
“Firstly, my behaviour last night was unacceptable,” he said.
“On a serious note, to anybody I offended, I do apologise.”
He was then forced to confront his relationship with Whitney who he left his original wife Gemma for.
After the show returned from a break, expert Mel shocked fans as she told the group: “Matt will be bowing out of proceedings for the rest of the evening.
DESPERATE TIMES

“Whitney will be staying with us but we will be respecting Matt’s wishes to take some time away from the group.”
