Awkward moment MAFS bride breaks down in tears after groom's 'cringe' wedding performance

E4's Married At First Sight descended into chaos during the first episode of the new series, with a groom leaving his bride in tears after his 'cringe' outburst during the wedding reception.

Dean and Sarah were the first 2025 couple to tie the knot, but straight off the bat, Sarah realised she wasn't attracted to her groom. Before she even laid eyes on him, her friends told the cameras how he was so far from her type.

However, the feelings weren't mutual for Dean, who liked his bride so much, that he even rapped for her during their vows, leaving Sarah, and viewers cringing during theE4 show.

As soon as she walked down the aisle, Sarah told the cameras: "No, I don't fancy Dean. I'm so sorry."

However, Sarah carried on, reading out her vows, but she was left cringing when Dean rapped his. "I did mention making you smile, and there's something I prepared," he said.

He then started his rap: "When I saw you in that dress today you did more than take my breath away," before starting a chant in the audience.

"Oh wow, he's just so over the top, that's put me right off," she continued to the cameras.

"I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. The rap is not something I envisioned, I have to say. Dean's not my typical type," she said as she swerved the first kiss for one on the cheek.

"Dean is such a lovely guy but I'm going to be honest, I don't want to rip his clothes off," she continued. "I'm sorry, no."

However, Sarah didn't give up as she continued to get to know her new groom as they headed out to take some wedding snaps.

But things went sour during the wedding reception, as Dean burst into song, leaving Sarah in tears and their guests cringing.

"We will build a life together, for you and me," the song began, as Sarah called the interaction "awkward and weird".

"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 just a bit too much for me, too much too soon," she said.

"Although to be honest I don't think I would like anyone writing a song for me." In tears, she continued: "I'm struggling a little bit, I can't lie. More than I thought. I can see why we've been matched I can. It's just not there."

She later told her friends she'd gotten the "ick" and that it was definitely friends vibes between the two.

Following up with a heart to heart to her dad, he told her to go with the flow and enjoy things, although Sarah stressed that the initial spark wasn't there, although she was hoping for it to follow.

Tomorrow night, the couple will be heading off on their honeymoon - but will his outbursts of songs and rapping become too much for Sarah?
