We say it every year but Married At First Sight UK truly is the most intense reality TV show ever and the 2025 series has been as wild as ever.
This year's season of the social experiment has featured some character and one fella who joined the show in the hopes of finding the love of his life is Joe Wood.
The 2025 groom decided to take part in MAFS after his mum was like, 'Erm Joe, babes, come on now, time to settle down.'
Okay, so we are paraphrasing, but the groom did admit that 'after a frank conversation with his mum, [he] has changed his ways and reshaped his life.'
