The first time they met was on their wedding day
Last updated 16th Mar 2018
Just when you thought it couldn't get any worse for Married at First Sight couple Ben and Stephanie who revealed they're getting divorced, it turns out Steph found out about the plans in a heartbreaking way.
According to reports Steph heard about Ben's intention to divorce her when she heard about it on a radio show. In the radio interview Ben claimed he had spoken to his bride saying "it ain't there kiddo", before he asked her for a divorce. However according to Steph's friend this interview was the first the 32-year-old had heard of divorce.
Steph's friend who is a former Married at First Sight contestant, took to Instagram to say 'So we all found out via this article just now too. Even Steph. What a t--t.'
During the radio interview Ben admitted that he had already moved on from his marriage and he has been having a 'kiss and a cuddle' with a mystery woman.
Ben and Steph first met on their wedding day as part of the current series of Married at First Sight and seemed to be getting along very well as they went on a week's honeymoon to Mallorca. However, tempers began to fray when the couple returned to the UK and had to move in together for a seven week trial period.
Despite a few arguments, as the three-part series concluded, Steph said, "I can't believe there is somebody in the world who has been matched to me as well as Ben."
However, it seems that her thoughts weren't mutual as the couple are now getting a divorce.
Since the news of the couple's divorce has become public Ben has now posted a photo to his Instagram account saying, 'It's a New Day.... It's a New Dawn & I'm feeling.......'
