Ross and Sacha became the first to drop the 'L-bomb' on Married at First Sight UK 2024, but they also became the first to 'confirm' their split as Ross was seen to be interacting with his new girlfriend on social media.

When MAFS fans heard the news, they were shocked, heartbroken but mostly confused. Sacha spoke on the show about how "safe" Ross made her feel, she said no man had made her feel so at ease before.

Ross was equally as positive about his wife, saying she had the best communication skills which he valued as someone who was born deaf. So where did it all go wrong?

Here's what's been revealed about Ross and Sacha's shock split...

Why did MAFS UK's Sacha and Ross split?

The MailOnline were the first to break the news claiming Ross and Sacha stayed together when the show finished and Sacha even moved from Birmingham to Manchester to be with her hubby. But out of the blue Ross reportedly cut ties, leaving Sacha "devastated".

Their source said: "Sacha had an incredible experience filming Married At First Sight UK and she truly thought her marriage with Ross would work.

"She moved to Manchester to be with him but after just two weeks he went cold and ended their romance for good. Sacha was devastated and now watching their journey back as the show airs makes processing their breakup even harder."

They went on to say that MAFS producers haven't been happy to see Ross be so flippant in posting about his new girlfriend.

The source said: "Producers weren't happy either… Ross gave away that he and Sacha were no longer together by posting photos with his new girlfriend – he had no problem flaunting his romance despite the fact it would hurt his ex-wife's feelings."

Now that the show has finished airing on E4 Sacha and Ross have been able to address their split. Sacha has revealed that Ross moved to Walsall to be with her bit he was "on and off" with her like a "light switch".

She tragically described her time with Ross outside of the experiment as the most "unhappiest" time of her life. Ross has not commented on their split but has hard launched his new partner on his Instagram confirming he has moved on.
