Married At First Sight UK legend Ella Morgan has taken a swipe at this year’s male cast after they were branded ‘toxic’.
Feisty fan favourite Ella, who was the breakout star of the show last series, spoke out about this year’s grooms whole attending the EGO x Grace Rosa Jackson collection launch at Paris Fashion Week.

“I just think the men this year are not bringing it. I’m sorry, but they’re really not,” Ella fumed.
The stunning reality star, who recently found love on Celebs Go Dating, had a particular bone to pick with Caspar, who criticised her wife Emma for her shapely figure and told her he wasn’t attracted to curvy women.
That is so below the belt,” Ella said. “OK if someone’s not your type, fine, but you don’t have to get personal. Emma, by far, has the most incredible personality, and is really funny and I love that she owns her s*** and she knows who she is.
“She knows she’s beautiful inside and out. I just think it was really below the belt belt and uncalled for because he’s no oil painting, let’s be honest.”
And while Ella copped some backlash on her series for ‘partner-swapping’ and growing close to JJ Slater behind her ‘husband’ Nathanial Valentino’s back, she still had some choice words for controversial groom Alex.
Not only has Alex come under fire off screen, after a group of women accused him of being ‘abusive’ and demanded Channel 4 remove him from the show, he has also drawn ire on the show for his stag do comments about being up for swapping wives if he didn’t fancy his match.
“I think to go into it with that mindset isn’t good,” Ella reasoned. “You can’t go in and be that narrow minded. If your husband just doesn’t make an effort with you and doesn’t fancy you and makes you feel like s***, albeit, go for it, but before you have even met your wife [and talking about wife swapping]? No. “
Ella’s comments come as viewers have turned on many male members of the MAFS UK cast this year.
As well as Caspar and Alex igniting viewer fury, Adam has also provoked a huge backlash for his treatment of wife Polly.
He reduced her to tears at the commitment ceremony when he revealed he hasn’t had sex with her since the honeymoon because he didn’t want to lead her on.
He has also repeatedly stated that she is not his type.
But expert Paul Brunson took him to task and wasn’t having his excuses in last night’s episode.
“If I’m affectionate with her and cuddling kissy with her, I don’t want to give her the wrong idea because I don’t want to hurt her,” Adam explained to him.

But Paul was having none of it, firing back: “But you are married and you have already had sex.”
When Adam said that he was intimate with Polly because it “felt natural at the time,” Paul gave him so more home truths.
“It’s nonsense, my man. It’s like you want to swim in the pool, but you don’t want to get wet,” Paul snapped.
And viewers watching at home have been equally unimpressed by Adam.
One fan begged this week: “Polly, just go home hon, and give up the ghost. Adam is vile.”
Another said: “Can’t stand Adam. Absolutely vile. She’s gorgeous and deserves better.”
