Married At First Sight UK legend to make explosive return to show ‘stir things up’
A MARRIED At First Sight legend is set for an explosive return to the show.
The star participated in the E4 reality experiment last year – making history in the process.
Ella Morgan, 30, was the first ever transgender bride on the long-running dating show.
She is now returning for the Married At First Sight special, which films today and will air early next year.
As The Sun previously revealed, bosses wanted to reunite all the biggest faces from the last few series for a big one-off episode in 2025.
Ella was at the top of the wish list, so they were thrilled she agreed to return.
A source told us: “Ella is MAFS royalty, so the special wouldn’t have been the same without her.
“She’ll be back, alongside some of the most memorable characters from the most recent series, and producers are confident she will stir things up.
“Now she’s got MAFS and Celebs Go Dating under her belt, she knows what makes good telly and isn’t to speak to her mind.”
Earlier this year, Ella joined the likes of Helen Flanagan, Stephen Webb and Jamelia on Celebs Go Dating.
While on the show, she met her now-boyfriend Alex with the two becoming inseparable ever since meeting.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Ella said: “I’m very happy, I’m very content.
“He’s not like any of the other people I’ve been with. I feel like I want to pinch myself.
“I went on two dating shows, first one didn’t go well.
“I actually didn’t think anything would happen, this sounds so cringe, you know when you know.”
She previously revealed how “it was the worst kept secret” having to hide the pair’s relationship while Celebs Go Dating was still airing.

“Even now I just tell random people, “this is my boyfriend Alex” or I’ll show them a picture of me and him.
“Even though they probably don’t care I still want to show him off anyway. I’m really happy and he’s really happy, well I hope he is anyway.”
The reality star added: “People still message and ask if we are still together and, well, I wouldn’t be posting about him if we weren’t.”
