MARRIED At First Sight UK star Thomas Kriaras has broken his silence after his heartbreaking split from Rozz Darlington.
In last night's homestays episode, Rozz, 28, told her groom she couldn't continue with their relationship as she felt overwhelmed being back in the real world.
After it aired, Thomas, 27, proved he had no hard feelings as he took to Instagram with a lengthy post.
Alongside a video echoing the same points, he wrote, "Tonight was really hard. I could only watch snippets on my phone from the garage whilst working out haha.
"During my time with @rozzdarlington, I struggled massively to open myself up. It’s something I’ve always struggled to do. My mum says hugging my is like hugging an ironing board sometimes hahaha.
