Eagle-eyed fans spot Take Me Out star Morag on MAFS UK

She's no stranger to a dating show...

Author: Alex RossPublished 1st Sep 2021

The brand spanking new series of Married At First Sight UK hit our TV screens this week, and after Geordie girl Nikita's awkward encounter with her new hubby Ant on Monday night, Tuesday's episode saw the nuptials of Morag and Luke.

But it wasn't the ceremony that had viewers talking, it was the realisation that Morag looked VERY recognisable...

Viewers of the hit E4 show were quick to ask the Internet why they recognised the Essex girl, and in true style, Twitter had the answers!

It turns out this isn't the first time Morag has attempted to find love on a dating show, with the 31-year-old taking part on ITV's Take Me Out three years ago.

Eagle-eyed viewers were quick to share their findings, with one writing: 'Does anyone else recognise Morag from Take Me Out circa 2018? #MAFSUK'.

Another wrote: 'Morag signing up for all the dating shows. She was on "Take Me Out" too Face with tears of joy #MAFSUK', with a third writing: 'I’m sure I’ve seen Morag on Take Me Out? #MAFSUK'.
