MARRIED At First Sight star Sarah cruelly snubbed husband Dean at the altar tonight – as she branded him “over the top”.
The recruitment consultant, 31, admitted she’s only attracted to bad boys with tattoos, but was hoping to date someone opposite to that.

The experts matched her with hopeful romantic Dean, 31, who wants to sweep his wife off his feet by being a gentleman.
As he nervously walked down the aisle, he was greeted with bemused expressions from the bride’s family.
He waved to the bridesmaids, but was met with a frosty reception, as they appear to ignore him and look away.
Sarah’s friend Caitlin told the camera: “Looks are very important to Sarah and he is definitely not Sarah’s type.
“But in the past Sarah hasn’t always chosen the right sort of guy, so I think it’s a good thing.”
Dean anxiously waited for his bride to arrive, but as soon as Sarah saw him she looked less than impressed.
Meanwhile Dean gushed “this is the woman for me” as the smitten lad paid her a number of compliments.
But Sarah had her reservations and told the producers: “No, I don’t fancy Dean. So sorry.”
Feltham lad Dean had something extra special up his sleeve.
He performed a rap at the altar but it didn’t go down well with his new wife or her family, who were left cringing.
Sarah admitted: “He’s just over the top which has put me right off.
“I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed, the rap is not something I envisaged. I have to say I was not expecting that.”
Despite her apprehension, the pair made it through the vows.
Clearly oblivious of how Sarah was truly feeling, a chuffed Dean said: “It was way better than I could have ever hoped, this is my type of lady.”
After the wedding, Sarah admitted Dean was not her type of person and grimaced when talking about him.
She also swerved their first kiss and told him to only peck her on the cheek.
Speaking to the camera, she said: “Dean is such a lovely guy but I’ve got to be honest I don’t want to rip his clothes off.”
The wedding day went from day to worse as the reception kicked off.
Sarah found it difficult to find any common ground with Dean after he told he doesn’t go to the gym or have tattoos.
The pair then clashed when Dean admitted he’s a romantic guy, while Sarah said she wasn’t.
He said: “I have been over the top before like love poems, ” to which Sarah replied: “Oh no please don’t write me a poem.”
Speaking away from him, she said: “I am a bit worried because all I can think about is that I don’t fancy you.
“He is so lovely, I’m just sensing a friend vibe more than a romantic vibe and I haven’t come here for a friend vibe.”
At the table, Sarah again made it clear to her bridesmaid that she didn’t get what she had ordered.
She told Dean: “My usual type is a walking talking red flag, like they’re just come out of jail.”
Dean said: “I’m very much not a bad boy, I’m actually very good, I’m like a mummy’s boy.”
He then surprised Sarah a second time by performing a romantic song, just hours after his rap at the altar.
It left Sarah speechless as she branded it “weird” and “awkward”.
She said: “I’m not an over romantic person at all and anything over the top does put me off.
“I don’t know how to react to that.
“The song is a bit much for me, a bit much too soon. To be honest I don’t know if I’d like anyone writing a song for me.”
Viewers were left fuming at Sarah for being so cruel.
One wrote: “Sarah… love… you’re just as normal as Dean. Get off your high horse…”
A second posted: “I know it happens every year but Sarah has a terrible attitude for someone who’s only on this show because they’re sick of how they repeatedly go for bad boys.”
A third commented: “Sarah should’ve listened to her dad when he said not to be judgmental!”
“Granted, the rapping was cringe, but I’m not impressed with Sarah and her snobby friends,” a fourth said.
Another added: “Sarah could be a contender for one of this seasons villains, time will tell.”
Dean decided to put his trust in the experts hands.
He was so determined to find his dream girl that he once flew all the way to Venice for a first date.
After being single for a year, Dean hopes the experts will help him find a soul mate who will match his zest for life.
While Sarah believes that there are no eligible bachelors in her hometown and – with all of her friends settling down – is determined to find the one.
She’s looking for “the nicest guy in the world” and the lucky man will have to earn the approval of her dad.
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.”
