MARRIED At First Sight Australia returned for it’s 13th series on E4 tonight as 18 new hopefuls entered the experiment to find love.
One of those contestants is nurse and social media manager Alissa from South Australia.
The blonde beauty was paired with e-commerce product manager and former rapper David Momoh from Brisbane.
The pair had a back and forth at the alter as she demanded he got down on one knee and ask her to be his wife, while he refused to do so.
Eventually he decided to do it and the couple were able to get hitched to one another.
Later on, she apologised to him at their reception as he admitted he liked her softer side.
As their wedding came to an end, Alissa referred to her new husband as “daddy”, something which left viewers cringing.
Taking to X to share their reactions, one person wrote: “Alissa, please stop referring to your new husband as being ‘daddy’, it’s cringy af.”
Another viewer slammed: “What’s with all the daddy s**t from Alissa.”
While a third added: “Alissa is nuts.”
Alissa and David’s guests were left in shock when she said: “I’m really really sorry. I don’t think I can marry you.”
“I completely understand,” David replied, adding: That’s completely understandable.”
She then added: “Not until you get on one knee and propose to me first.”
David then said: “She got me good,” in relief that she was only joking about not wanting to get married.
David was reluctant and said he would get down on one knee “eventually”.
But Alissa was defiant and said she “would not” marry him until he did it.
She even stood her ground for 15 minutes as she made a demand before she’d say “I do”.
“This is what I need from you,” she said, to which he replied, “we’ll work it out later, I can’t tell if you’re being serious.”
“I really, really need you to do this for me. This is my dream,” Alissa affirmed.
“He actually doesn’t want to ger one down on one knee,” she added.
David then said it was “too late” for that as they were already at the altar, with him convinced it was a trick on Alissa’s part.
In a confessional, he said: “Hell no, I’m not taking that knee,” before saying how he felt like walking away.
But because her family looked as though Alissa “needed it,” David got on one knee, took her hand and popped the all important question.
The whole ordeal caused intense awkwardness before he eventually did what she wanted and the pair got married.
Alissa and David did end up saying “I do” but his friends had their reservations about her personality.
When he asked them what they thought of her, they appeared to have their reservations about her.
Married At First Sight Australia continues on Tuesday night at 7:30pm on E4
