Married At First Sight UK mystery as former best friends ‘fall out’ VERY publicly after ‘assault’ claims

TWO Married At First Sight best pals have fallen out amid 'assault' claims, fans have claimed.

Whitney Hughes and April Banbury might not have found true love on the 2022 series of the show, but they did strike up a strong friendship.

However, eagle-eyed Mafs fans now appear to have spotted trouble between them.

One person commented in an online forum: "Whitney posted about a week ago that one of her friends assaulted her and she was taking a break from social media.

"Just had a look and neither now follow each other. Wonder what happened as they seemed to do everything together."

Another person commented: "I was wondering about this too - they had seemed to be really close friends until whatever this incident was."

The 'assault' post is no longer visible. As of today, neither April or Whitney are following each other.

A representative for April declined to comment, while Whitney is yet to respond.

Former Miss Great Britain April, who wed George Roberts on the show, said Mafs caused her deep trauma and "ruined her life".

More recently she's been living with a painful chronic injury: spinal stenosis.

She told her fans earlier this year: "I have spinal stenosis (there’s no cure for that, I was told I will have chronic pain for life) my nerves are deeply compressed, but they don’t know what's causing it, so I’m seeing a spinal specialist in a few weeks to investigate.

"It’s going to take sometime for me to process this could be my life now, but I still don’t want to give up hope that one I could be back to some what of a normal life.

"I just can’t imagine living life like this.

"The pain is indescribable and constant. I feel like I’m just existing day to day, and now I need a new purpose because life is not as I once knew it.

"It’s crazy because I feel too young to have such a debilitating injury, but it just shows what heavy lifting over a long period of time can cause."

Meanwhile Whitney famously had an affair with heavily tattooed Matt Murray on the programme after originally marrying Duka Cav.

They have since split and Whitney has led a glamorous life ever since.

She made a telly return earlier this year on OnlyFans show There's a Catch with a number of other influencers.

The show saw them working on a fishing boat in the Med in order to maintain a luxury lifestyle.
