MAFS UK star reveals secret split from groom not seen on screen
A MARRIED At First Sight UK bride has sensationally revealed her groom walked out on her for two days – in scenes that weren’t aired on the E4 series.
Chanita, 29, opened up on how spouse Jordan, also 29, secretly left their apartment for consecutive days following a huge row.
The fan favourite pair – who stunned Married At First Sight viewers during the reunion episode by announcing their split – hand a handful of bumps in the road during the matchmaking experiment.
One of these came when social worker Chanita, who is used to diagnosing and assessing children for ADHD and ADHD-related traits, suggested Jordan might present some himself.
She told the MAFS Hysteria podcast how their chat was presented in editing was “a lot worse” than the reality of the conversation.
Chanita said: “I am used to openly speaking about things but from that I learn I have to be mindful some people would be sensitive to certain discussions.”

She said when she spoke to Jordan there was “no malice” and “it was just a chat.”
She added: “At the time, he wasn’t upset about it. At that time I didn’t realise I had hurt him.
“He even told his mum about the conversation and apparently they had a laugh about it.”
Despite having the perfect honeymoon and being branded the “best couple ever”, she told the podcast of the reality of life off-screen during their tough patch.

The Derby lass continued: “When we had that bad week Jordan left me for two days.
“We had had a fall-out at the dinner party because there was a lot of drama and we had both said we would watch what we drank as we didn’t know who was going to say what with the dynamics.
“And Jordan didn’t, as you saw.”
She continued: “He stormed out and left me for two days in the apartment.”
While viewers had been aware of their spat, the news that Jordan stayed elsewhere post-Honeymoon will come as quite the surprise to fans.
After overcoming their hurdles, the pair renewed their vows in an emotional commitment ceremony.
Yet in the final episodes, fans were left in shock after the power couple SPLIT – as Jordan “stopped making an effort” to see his TV wife.
Chanita revealed her “heartbreak” after Jordan “took a step back” from her following filming.

At the time, a source told the MailOnline: “Jordan and Chanita’s marriage hasn’t lasted. Chanita tried everything to keep the spark they had… Jordan no longer seemed interested.
“Once filming for the series had ended, Jordan took a step back, and stopped messaging her completely – Chanita was heartbroken.”
