MARRIED At First Sight bride April Banbury has told how she has “locked herself away” and not “recognised” herself since finding fame on the show.
Former Miss GB April, 32, was paired with dad-of-four George Roberts, 40, on the E4 reality series, yet the pair’s relationship was marred with a cheating row sparked in a hot tub.

The former Miss GB, 32, admitted she hadn’t ‘recognised herself’ of late
She came under fire from her ‘husband’ over snogging a woman in a game of truth or dare as they Honeymooned in Jamaica.
After the scandal became the hot topic in the Married At First Sight group’s comeback dinner, it appears it has taken its toll on the wedding dress designer.
April took to her Instagram page to post a sultry snap showing her in a white halterneck jumpsuit as she posed side-profile.
In a thought-provoking caption, she wrote: “This is my first day out socially since my watch party.

“These last two weeks I haven’t recognised myself. I’ve locked myself away at every opportunity.
“That’s not me! Today is the beginning of finding myself again.
“I am a strong woman and I refuse to lose myself anymore.”
She finished off with the hashtag: “#BeStrong.”
Earlier this month she issued a plea for fans to “be kind” after her antics were exposed.
Meanwhile others have suggested the couple “faked” the now-infamous row after spotting a huge clue.
Eagle-eyed fans took to social media to note how the footage of April’s kiss was missing from the show.
Some even demanded “video evidence” of the kiss – which caused a huge argument which was shown on the show last night.
One wrote to Twitter: “I don’t believe for 1 second April snogged another lass in the hot tub and I demand video evidence.”
Another chimed in of the incident: “Didn’t see April cheat. It’s hyped so we keep watching the show.”
It comes after George broke his silence – taking a swipe at how the show was “edited” – after the shock scenes last night.
“We all love an edit,” he sassily wrote to his Instagram fans in a late-night stories post, alongside an eye-rolling emoji.
