MAFS UK’s George backs fan theory he should have married GEMMA – not April
MARRIED At First Sight UK's George Roberts revealed his approval after fans said he should have married Gemma and not April Banbury in the E4 series.
He broke his silence on Instagram today after April hinted their marriage was over and said she needed therapy after taking part in the series.
George, 40, reacted to a post from their co-star Gemma in which she was asked who she would have liked to marry out of George and PJ if given a choice.
Gemma, who was briefly wed to Matt Murray on the Channel 4 run show, replied: "A George and PJ sandwich" while tagging the boys.
George appeared pleased with her remark and reposted it with a crying laughing face emoji and a heart.
It comes as April, who was accused by George of cheating when she kissed a girl in hot tub for a dare, revealed she suffered "trauma" during MAFS UK.
She wrote: "The traumas that have been brought on from this show have made me re-evaluate things. I really have and I'm not ashamed to admit, I have been seeing a therapist ever since."

Viewers feared for April in the series and said they spotted "red flags" in George's behaviour when he began googling her previous relationships.
Three of his exes have since come forward and told The Sun they complained to the police of his alleged emotional abuse.
They claim show makers also ignored the alerts when contacted.
One told The Sun: “I contacted Married at First Sight, E4 and All4 and the producers to tell them he was a known emotional and mental abuser of women.”

Another said: “I sent everything I had. They said they would be looking into it."
A third said: "One of the exes said: “I’m so shocked to see he has been given a platform on a TV show. I messaged Married at First Sight. I said I reported him to the police."

The women had all dated him since he was divorced from his first wife.
They each told cops he “love-bombed” them by showering them with affection and gifts before his behaviour turned “coercive and controlling”.
