Married at First Sight UK star Georges Berthonneau has admitted that another bride caught his eye during the experiment – clinic consultant Ella Morgan. <\/p>\n

The 30-year-old was partnered with Peggy Rose on the show, telling OK!<\/b> in an exclusive interview that while she was the perfect match for him, he was also interested in Ella – the show's first-ever transgender contestant.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeggy\u2019s beautiful and actually, I wouldn\u2019t have gone with anyone else. But if you put a gun to my head, I would have picked Ella,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe would have gotten on like a house on fire. Ella and I spoke throughout and whatnot. She\u2019s a hoot, me and her have a very, very similar sense of humour, very inappropriate, very outspoken, very outrageous.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The content creator added that he was "shocked" when MAFS found him a partner as he was very "particular" with what he wanted in a wife.<\/p>\n

"I wanted someone who's beautiful and beauty is in the eye of the beholder," he said. <\/p>\n

The Surrey-based contestant has appeared on reality TV in the past, taking part in Celebs Go Dating and going on a date with The Only Way Is Essex star Chloe Sims. <\/p>\n

When deciding to do MAFS, Georges said that he wanted to jump back into TV life to mark his 30th birthday. "I thought, 'do you know what? I haven't been on the box in a very long time and I could meet a lifelong partner here.' That's how I looked at it," he said. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Georges didn't get off to a great start on the show after fans condemned the comments about his bride's breasts. One viewer wrote on social media, "He is disgusting!" after the groom said he wanted a wife with a pair of "melons" or "mommy milkers".<\/p>\n

Speaking about the reaction online, Georges said that he became "the most hated man" on the show. <\/p>\n

"I haven\u2019t tried to defend my actions. I\u2019ve just gone \u2018I\u2019m sorry\u2019 because what I said and did was a previous me, it was a very locker room Georges. And it wasn\u2019t sensible," he said.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Ella has been at the centre of the show's drama after pursuing a connection with groom JJ Slater, despite both being married to different contestants.<\/p>\n

Married at First Sight UK airs Monday to Thursday on 9pm on E4<\/b><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
