Emma Barnes was a popular cast member of Married at First Sight UK this year

A woman who had never had a boyfriend before appearing in a reality TV series where she married a stranger, said watching the show was "tough".

Emma Barnes, from Bristol, failed to connect with Caspar Todd after he told her on their honeymoon that he was not attracted to "curvier" women. He later apologised.

Ms Barnes said: "It’s not really what you expect on the first day of the honeymoon.

"But you join this programme for a journey and often the people that don’t fall in love at first sight will have a journey of growth together."

"I’ve watched enough series for that to happen – I absolutely forgave him," she added.

"We're still on speaking terms - not the best of friends. It's still quite tough watching it back for the both of us."
