MAFS UK’s most bitter feud explodes as Polly takes a savage swipe back at former friend who branded her a liar
MARRIED At First Sight UK’s most bitter feud has exploded as Polly Sellman appears to have taken a savage swipe at Amy Victoria.
The pair both took part in this year’s series of the E4 show.
Despite the series wrapping up last week, there is still plenty of drama going on between the cast.
Amy, who was married to Luke Debono, shared private messages with Polly on her Instagram and slammed her as a ‘liar’ in a row over Polly’s ex Adam Nightingale.
Polly appears to have taken a swipe at Amy on her Instagram story.
She reshared a picture of a quote that says: “Stay away from people who act like a victim in a problem they created.”
Polly and Adam tied the knot as part of the experiment – and the pair made it to the end, however split during final vows.
During the show, Adam made it clear that he wasn’t attracted to his wife, but some viewers were convinced that he liked Luke Debono’s wife Amy.
Taking to her Instagram Stories, Amy shared WhatsApps from a fiery row with Polly, accusing her of spreading false rumours about a connection with Adam during partner swap week.
Amy, who insists that her relationship with Adam was purely platonic, took to social media to expose Polly’s alleged hypocrisy.
Screenshots revealed Polly had previously defended Amy in private conversations but later appeared to fuel rumours about a potential affair during filming.
Amy told fans: “Proof that the rumours Polly’s fueling aren’t true,” and followed up with a string of screenshots attempting to clarify her stance.
In one exchange, Amy expressed her frustration, writing: “I always said to you I’d rather you of told me anything you saw that was putting me in detriment, and you did.
“Screenshot this f*****g convo and put it on ur story.”
The feud escalated when Amy uncovered a comment supporting accusations of inappropriate behavior, which Polly appeared to like.
She said: “Sorry but Amy is not a girls’ girl, the little comments and looks to Adam—something is definitely going on or happened between them.
Mafs couples that have stood the test of time
Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.
The pair couldn’t keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam’s Doncaster home.
Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau.
Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December.
Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: “I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out – and excited for everything to come.”
Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019.
Owen recalled: “I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work.
“While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in.
“The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if I signed up?’
“A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.”
Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson.
Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna’s vegan lifestyle, the show’s first same sex pairing are still going strong.
They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod.
Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: “We’re not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship.”
“@polly_sellman don’t know how you kept so cool with her, well done you!”
Polly defended herself in response, claiming: “I genuinely haven’t meant to like that as I deleted it as well. I must’ve skimmed past and liked, but it’s deleted anyway.
“Please don’t seriously let that make you think I agree with anything anyone’s saying when I’m deleting and defending as much as I can.”
She continued: “I’m trying to delete them about you as they come through, but I’m away, so it’s hard to keep on it. I’ll be with you next Thursday though, if you’re going to the London press thing???
“Can actually f*****g shut everyone up with these c***y rumours that are doing my head in.”
Amy didn’t hold back, calling Polly out directly and sharing her disbelief over the ongoing drama.
She wrote: “Are you fucking s******g me? Saying I shagged Adam on partner swap week? Are you actually OK?”
She concluded her post by addressing the speculation for fans, writing: “For everyone asking if me and Polly are friends… We WERE until she started making up rumours that me and @adam.nightingale.19g0 were anything more than friends on partner swap week.
“Very interesting seeing her fuel b******t rumours about us on her live when she sent me this a few days ago.”
Adam and Polly had a very up and down relationship on the show.
The hairdresser made it clear that he wasn’t sexually attracted to her on their wedding day, but had sex with her that night.
As time went on, it appeared that they were back on track, but during couple swap week, things got awkward when he was paired with Amy.
They called it quits during their final vows and during the reunion Polly called her ex husband a “c***” and launched a glass of red wine at him.
Fans were quick to point out that Adam “had never looked happier” while on the show while with her.
Since the show has ended Adam and Amy have raised a few eyebrows with snaps of him pretending to propose to her.
