New series of MAFS UK to start Monday, 15th September.

We know it’s not as good as the Aussie version, but we’ll be there for this year’s rabble!

Too good to be true - maybe he lives in Perth, Oz?

MrJollyLivesNextDoor · 22/09/2025 22:49

Ashley should take a vow of silence

JaneJeffer · 22/09/2025 22:49

The rugby player stereotype lives on

Dillite2 · 22/09/2025 22:50

Gosh, the experts have outdone their shitty matching this year-they all hate each other!

dapsnotplimsolls · 22/09/2025 22:50

Some bods on X last night were saying Sarah reminded them of Casper.

Yes, but that’s part of the fun! 🍿

Ooh Dean, don't ask a question if you can't cope with the answer, mate. I did feel for him there.

ruethewhirl · 22/09/2025 22:56

He was very blank-faced, wasn't he. If I'd been revealing something of that magnitude I'd have wanted a bit of nodding and the odd comment from the other person to show empathy. I guess not everyone listens in the same way, though.

I think he looked very drunk and very tired. And who knows, they may have filmed it 10 times already. 🤔

Mysticaldeer · 22/09/2025 22:59

Well he was trying to frown, but I think the Botox weren't having it?

Yeah I don't get that. "Oh people always say I'm too fat" a day later to the partner "Do you think I'm fat?" (Yes) <turns to camera> "I can't believe they think I'm fat. That really wasn't easy to hear" <sobs>

He literally just told her he is happy being fat and it was a choice because people realised he was nasty when he was thin. Make up your mind Dean are you pretending to be the nasty skinny Dean who is nasty to women or are you pretending to be the fat bubbly attention hogging Dean who is probably also nasty to women?

Ashley's horse is beautiful.

MissSophiaGrace · 22/09/2025 23:19

Also, where are Grace' family, her mum and dad presumably didn't approve...

Edited

Quite likely, now you come to mention it!

Italiangreyhound · 22/09/2025 23:21

Ashlu is quite cute but I do know from the internet he likes blondes and the blond on the burgundy dress is very pretty.

Italiangreyhound · 22/09/2025 23:31

Is it too early to say Sarah and Ashley would have been a much better match.

somethingnewandexciting · 22/09/2025 23:32

MissSophiaGrace · 22/09/2025 23:19

I think a lot of her humour and OTT character will be related to this - along with her hate of being touched. Absence of any family at all...

Italiangreyhound · 22/09/2025 23:39

Nelly is gorgeous. He seems very happy with her. Her dad and mum are lovely. I hope they work.

I would love for him to say this to her and watch her head spin off

Jtfrtj · 22/09/2025 23:56

ruethewhirl · 22/09/2025 22:33

Also the couples that start off really strong always seem to come off the rails later...

I'm not really getting controlling vibes off Davide so far, then again I keep taking my eyes off the screen to type 😄so I'm probably not getting all the facial expressions/body language etc.

I wouldn’t say I’m sensing that from Davide (at least not yet), I think in comparison to Keye he has a more sophisticated manner and is more reserved. That contrast is perhaps giving the impression he may be controlling.

Italiangreyhound · 23/09/2025 00:08

Grave wanted it to be really easy. Has she not watched the series before!

It's never easy! It's a weird, hard difficult process, made more difficult by the weird matching process (like matching folks on quite flimsy criterion), and the weird challenges (like rating other contestants!) and the fact you are on camera!

I agree. Also it was fine to get keye to be quiet on the safari, or they wouldn't get to see the animals as they'd run away.

Lions and elephants aren't going to stick around when there's a sealion on speed clapping like an idiot.
