Married at First Sight UK fans were left feeling uneasy after Monday night's episode, which saw the wedding of Alex and Holly. The show revealed that Holly, 29, is a mother to two children, having had her first child at 16. However, it became apparent that Alex was not entirely comfortable with marrying someone who already had children.
Viewers quickly took to Twitter to voice their concerns about the match, predicting potential heartbreak for the couple. One viewer criticised the experts' decision, saying: "The experts matching Holly with a man who would rather be with a childless woman is a big no-no! That's something that can't be compromised on and should've been prioritised in the match-making process." Another expressed concern for Holly, stating: "Why do I feel Holly is going to get hurt again? I hope I'm wrong.
" Others also shared their doubts about the couple's future, with one commenting: "Don't have a good long-term feeling about Holly and Alex." "The experts seem to love taking a risk in matching polar opposites in the hope something good comes from it don't they?" said someone else. One viewer tweeted: "Now you know the experts are messy for pairing someone who clearly isn't ready to be a step-parent, with someone with kids.
" While another wrote: "Every time Holly is on screen ...
I just feel bad for her and deeply anxious about how this is going to go." The couple's instant connection was evident, with Holly dubbing their pairing "perfect". After exchanging vows.
