MAFS UK star Georges’ ex Peggy breaks her silence on his new romance with Ekin-Su in scathing statement
MARRIED At First Sight's Peggy Rose has vented her harsh views on the news that her ex husband Georges Berthonneau is dating Love Island winner Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu.
The Sun revealed this week that Ekin-Su and Georges are seeing each other and their feelings have been growing since the summer.
Georges' ex MAFS wife Peggy Rose has now revealed what she really thinks about the pair's new romance, saying that it's: "Probably to stay in the limelight."
The 32-year-old confessed to MailOnline: "When I first heard about it I thought it's funny because it didn't surprise me.
"I was shocked but not surprised if that makes sense. I thought, times must be hard, he's trying to stay relevant, make a bit of money.
"But all in all if he's found something that makes him happy, good for him.

Georges split from his wife Peggy Rose on Valentine's Day this year, having tied the knot with her on last year's series of Married At First Sight UK.
Ekin has been single since the beginning of the year following her bitter split with Davide Sanclimenti after they won the 2022 series of Love Island.
She has previously told how Davide’s "endless deceit" led to the breakdown of their 18-month relationship.
Georges had a similarly difficult and public split from Peggy.
Peggy announced their marriage was over on Valentine’s Day, accusing him of cheating, which he’s denied.
