It’s getting to end of the current series of Married At First Sight UK and even the strongest couples are starting to have a bit of a wobble.

We thought they were definitely going to go the distance, but Kristina Goodsell and Kieran Chapman have just left the experiment after calling time on their relationship and now it looks like Sacha Jones and Ross McCarthy have hit the rocks too.

Sacha and Ross are currently at loggerheads over whether she’ll move to Manchester to live with him after the experiment ends, with the contentious issue at the centre of a series of rows.

In the wake of the explosive scenes airing on TV, Sacha has taken to social media to speak out on why she didn’t want to move to Manchester with Ross – and she spilled the beans on some unaired scenes in the process.

‘A lot had happened between me and Ross at this point to get me to the point of considering not moving [to] Manny,’ she wrote on Instagram.

‘It didn’t seem safe and secure enough anymore due to certain incidents. Hopefully this is fairly represented in upcoming eps, or I’m allowed to speak on it.’

Sacha went on to explain that Ross’ ‘temper’ was the biggest issue for her, adding, ‘Just to clarify I’ve lived in Spain. I don’t have trouble being away from my parents. I don’t live with my parents. Haven’t lived with my parents for five years.

‘The issue was number one, Ross’ temper. I didn’t want to move to Manchester because of Ross’ temper.

‘Also at the end of the episode you hear me say, “because of some of Ross’ behaviours during arguments sometimes I don’t want to move to Manchester.” It was more having my support network there if something went west with me and Ross.’

She also suggested that some scenes had been left out of the final edit in order to make her husband look better.

‘I’m just covering my back because I’ve been informed that a little bit of it is mentioned tomorrow at the commitment ceremony but not everything makes the cut,’ Sacha continued.

‘And I think that’s to protect Ross and his reputation. Of course I want to protect Ross as well so whatever doesn’t make the cut I won’t speak on.’

This isn’t the first time that a MAFS 2024 cast member has exposed unaired scenes as Amy Kenyon recently shed more light on Sacha’s row with Luke Debono.
