Married at First Sight UK allegedly has one star on the show who has been accused of being an emotional abuser – though he has denied all claims.
Three exes issued police complaints about the groom and one of his exes warned Channel 4 of their police complaints against him once they saw him on the trailer – after the show had already taken place.
George Roberts, 40, joined the E4 series earlier this year.
The dad-of-four from Worcestershire married former Miss Great Britain April Banbury at the altar sight unseen.

The women – who all made independent police complaints about George – have accused him of “manipulative, “obsessive” and “abusive” behaviour.
After seeing George featured in trailers for the show, they claim to have informed producers he was a “known emotional and mental abuser of women” – with Channel 4 only made aware of the allegations after the weddings had already been filmed.
One of his exes told The Sun: “I’m so shocked to see he has been given a platform on a TV show.
“I messaged Married at First Sight. I said I reported him to the police.

“They asked for additional information which I gave and I never heard anything further.”
Another of George’s ex added: “I contacted Married at First Sight, E4 and All4 and the producers to tell them he was a known emotional and mental abuser of women.”
A third claimed: “I sent everything I had. They said they would be looking into it.”
George has “categorically denied” the “deeply upsetting” abuse allegations, insisting they’re “not true.”

Before joining Married at First Sight UK, George worked as a financial adviser and part-time model.
Reacting to the abuse claims, his MAFS UK partner April added: “These revelations have knocked me for six. My head is spinning too much to comment.”
A Channel 4 spokesperson told Daily Star: “We work incredibly closely with our production partners to ensure all Married at First Sight UK contributors are subject to rigorous background and psychological checks, including the most detailed police checks a production is able to undertake.
“Any allegations of this nature are taken extremely seriously by Channel 4.”
