Fans of Married at First Sight UK can get a sneak peek of the new series almost two days before it drops.
The reality TV show, which sees singles meeting at the altar and tying the knot after being matched up by experts, is back on Sunday with a set of new hopefuls looking for their happily ever after. But E4 is releasing a 12-minute first look at some of the action today (Friday September 19).
The footage from the social experiment will be unveiled on the 4Reality YouTube channel this Friday at 5pm.
It will give MAFS fans a glimpse of the hen and stag parties as the brides and grooms enjoy their last night of single life before saying “I do” to total strangers in front of their loved ones.
Eighteen people are hoping to find romance on the new series of the hit show, including a grandmother and two same-sex couples.
A trailer was released earlier this month, kicking off with a groom standing in front of a mirror saying: “The whole purpose in life is to be loved.” The clip then showed a bride who explained: “I’ve been waiting for this moment my entire life.”
“Get ready for first glances and first dances, the fairytales and forever afters,” the narrator teased.
The clip then gave fans a look at some of the drama to come, with one bride apparently on a horse and one groom serenading his baffled looking wife on their big day.
