Who are the Married At First Sight UK 2021 couples?

It’s still a mystery who will be paired with who, but all of the potential bride and grooms have been revealed ahead of the new series launch on August 30, 2021.

For the first time, the marriages on the show won’t be legally binding and the will feature a same-sex couple.

Nikita

Nikita is a 27-year-old saleswoman based in County Durham. She also has an OnlyFans page.

When asked why she wants to appear on the show, she said: “Ideally, we all want our Prince Charming who we are going to be with until the day we die.

I just think if I meet someone who blows me away and we’re on the same wavelength and have proper banter, it’ll be great.”

Ant

Ant Poole is a 28-year-old model who also works as a business development specialist from Manchester.

Speaking about joining the show, he said: “The best that could happen is that the experts find me a match and it works out perfectly and find our happily ever after.

“The worst case is it doesn’t work out and I make some new friends and I learn a bit about myself as a person.”

Morag

Another bride hoping to find love on the show is 31-year-old Vet Morag.

Hailing from Essex, she describes herself as the life and soul of every party and is looking for a man to match her energy.

It doesn’t look like she gets it, however, as she’s seen in the trailer bluntly saying “I didn’t exactly get what I ordered.”
