Married At First Sight UK may have had a better viewership this year, but most of it is gathered due to the drama and feuds that erupt in the show. But what if all this drama is staged for entertainment purposes only? *gasp*

A show made for people to find love and get married has actually been accused of being ‘staged’ at so many points in this series. According to The Tab, here’s a list of all the evidence that the show is more ‘staged’ than authentic this time around.
Erica and Tasha beef
Tasha has been one of the most vocal contestants of the show this year to point out what’s fake and what’s not. The dinner party scene where the ‘apparent’ Erica and Tasha beef was highlighted is a sham, claims the star. The dinner party scene sees Erica making a toast to the group and thanking everyone who made herself and Jordan feel welcome saying ‘you know who you are.’ Just as she makes her speech the camera turns to an unimpressed looking and eye-rolling Tasha.
However, Tasha has now revealed on her Instagram stories that she wasn’t even at that dinner party. She said:
Before anyone tries Me and Paul were not even there for the first half of this dinner party if you look closely we were not there for Erica’s toast.
So the shots were of me at another point of the dinner party.
Ella and JJ texting
The infamous scene where Ella is seen texting JJ while she’s still with Nathanial was ‘majorly’ staged. The scene sees Ella texting JJ with an Old Nokia brick phone while the rest of the cast all have the latest phones. Many fans pointed out the obvious flaw in the producers' attempt to make a scandalous storyline.
They have been accused of giving Ella the phone just in time to have a camera right over her head to see the text. Thai comes after former MAFS UK star Amy Christopher insisted that producers use sly tricks to encourage cheating on the show.
Luke v/s Jordan fight MAFS UK
The Luke and Jordan fight got Luke kicked off from the show along with Jay. While one may think it was just ‘guys being heated up,’ Luka has claimed that producers egged on him to do what he did. He explained that the ‘certain people’ put it in his head that ‘look, you’re not going to look like a real man if you’re going to let someone get away with upsetting your missus on TV.’
Luke revealed he never planned to go around to see Jordan, but all these encouragement p*ssed him off to take that step.
Scouted cast members
Reportedly, a number of cast members on the show this time were cherry-picked by a casting team. Meaning, most of them never had the pure intention of getting married or finding love on the show. Hence, most parts of the show was just people fighting for air time before calling it quits on their relationship.
