Married at First Sight UK series nine has already started with a bang, after Eve and Charlie became the first to quit the show and rumours began swirling that Ross and Sacha have split.

Now to add to all the drama as we get closer to possible 'wipe swaps', E4 have introduced a new batch of brides and grooms, and joining the likes of Polly and Adam and Alex and Holly, is new couple Luke Debono and Amy Keynon.

Luke is a prison education manager originally from Malta who has a background in professional bodybuilding. Before the show he said he'd make a good husband because, "I'm fun, I like to get jiggy with it, and I can have deep conversations".

However MAFS viewers have said he's got a huge 'red flag' after admitting the worst thing he's done in a relationship, so we shall see how things go with Luke and Amy throughout the show.
