Married At First Sight UK fans predict first split after spotting ‘exact moment’ bride went off ‘obsessed’ groom

MARRIED At First Sight UK fans are convinced Richie Dews and Lara Eyre will be the first couple to split.

There was a notable moment last night when Lara’s face betrayed her true feelings about their whirlwind relationship as Richie clung on to her in an awkward hug.

While on a country stroll, Richie wrapped his arms around his wife prompting her to flash an unimpressed look at the camera.

Another telling moment saw Lara, 49, tell cameras she was “terrified” by the way Richie was idealising their marriage.

Spotting the look of worry on Lara’s face, one viewer wrote: “This look. Every woman has been in a position where they’ve ended up giving this look. #MAFSUK.”

Another said: “omg this guy is coming on far far too strong!!! It’s all so cringe to watch !!! Needs to cool down…he’s scaring her off!!!!”

A third posted: “Oh this is cringy. He’s not letting her go! It’s like she’s a hostage!! She’s obviously not feeling it is she?”

The writing certainly appears to be on the wall and the relationship could soon go the same way as Lara’s past two marriages.

It’s not the first time Richie has cringed viewers out on his quest to find love on TV.

Back in 2010, when he was 39, he broke down in tears on Take Me Out.

Richie, now aged 51, bagged himself a date with Tasha after serenading her in the studio.

The pair seemed to hit it off after they enjoyed a water sports date and then went out for a romantic candle lit dinner.

Two men with guitars appeared and started playing the song that he played on the show, and Richie’s emotions got the better of him.

As he wiped away the tears from his face, he said: “That’s my song!”

As Richie opened up on camera, he burst into tears again.

Take Me Out – presented by Paddy McGuiness – ran for 11 series between 2010 and 2019.

The show featured one single man who would reveal himself to 30 women.

If they took a liking to him, they would keep their podium light on, but if they didn’t want to date him, they’d turn it off.

After four rounds, the man would pick between the final two girls who he would like to date and they’d head off to the Isle of Fernando’s for a romantic getaway.
