Watch the moment MAFS bride Ella starts secret affair with groom JJ that throws show into total chaos
MARRIED At First Sight UK's Ella Morgan Clark made the move that started her affair with fellow show star JJ Slater.
Ella, 27 - the show's first ever trans bride - threw MAFS UK into chaos when she cheated on husband Nathanial Valentino.
Now the moment she decided to pursue things with JJ, 30, has been revealed.
In an exclusive clip ahead of tonight's show, Ella can be seen sending a message to the Essex boy and insisting she came to "find a husband".
She tells the camera: "I need to go with my gut and what it's been telling me for a long time.
"Nathanial doesn't fancy me and I just need to think about me now. I came here to find a husband, I didn't come here to find a friend. I feel like I owe it to myself to see if there's anything there with JJ.

"I feel like there's a connection. I just need to do this for me, I need to be selfish."
Ella is then seen sending a text to JJ that reads: "Hey JJ. Would u fancy going for a drink?"
"She didn't want to hurt Nathanial or go against the process because being part of the show means so much to her.
"Ella was looking for love and with the other groom, he adores her body and mind, and they had a much better chance of enjoying a long-lasting relationship together."
