Married at First Sight UK has nearly wrapped up for another series, and this one hasn't been short on dishing up the drama among the cast.
One wife-swap duo has called it quits, with the groom moving on to form a new romance. Fans of the E4 reality show were left shocked when Orson Nurse was caught kissing Hannah Norburn off camera in an affair scandal.
Hannah had been paired with Stephen Nolson in the reality experiment series, and the incident sparked a frenzy among viewers. Despite speculation that Orson and Hannah might still be together, it has emerged Orson, 41, is now dating someone else.
His new girlfriend is Harriet Southan according to reports in the Mirror, who is the sister of Big Brother star Henry, after a TikTok clip surfaced alluding to the new romance.
Henry gained fame on the recent Big Brother revival on ITV in 2023, securing third place. He sparked romance with housemate Jordan Sangha, who won the series. Their relationship became a fan favourite as it blossomed on national television.
In other MAFS news, Orson's on-screen partner Richelle faced backlash from the audience. She was criticised for her harsh words at the commitment ceremony, which some viewers labelled as "bullying".
The controversy intensified with the revelation of Orson and Hannah's secret kiss during the couples' retreat. He confessed: "On the last night of the retreat me and Hannah were speaking and we shared a kiss.

"There was a little connection there. I'm not going to lie. What I had was done, I knew what she was in was done, so honestly I didn't feel like I was walking on anybody's toes or disrespecting anyone."
Richelle harshly condemned him for his behaviour, saying: "He saw an opportunity with Hannah to recouple and stay in the process. He jumped at it. You're an embarrassment to yourself at this point.

"Before I came into this process I asked for a strong, intelligent man who has a bit of integrity, and I haven't found that in Orson at all. I find him quite weak-willed, you really aren't as sharp as you think you are."
In her scathing critique, Richelle continued: "It's pretty obvious I think to most people that you're a bit simple. He definitely lacks any shred of integrity. So, one week too late, but it's obvious - leave."
However, her remarks attracted significant backlash from the audience with one viewer writing: "Richelle is one of the most disgusting human beings I have ever watched on TV. How can the experts not have called her out on her bullying and horrible language. She is vile."
