Married At First Sight UK’s April Banbury is believed to have ended her relationship with her co-star George Roberts and has returned to London.
The trainee pilot is believed to have been left “traumatised” after allegations surrounding her on-screen husband began to emerge.
However representatives for George say he “categorically denies” all the damaging claims.
April, 33, is said to have called off their relationship and is now having therapy following her experience on the programme and her marriage to the dad-of-four.

The MailOnline have claimed that April has returned to her south London apartment, without her husband.
She is believed to have said she is unable to discuss the allegations made against George, telling a passerby: “I’m on the TV and it’s all got too much for me,” as she burst into tears.
On September 23, the former Miss Great Britain took to her Instagram in view of her 63,800 followers sharing two snaps of her and George, one where they are seen smiling and the second showing April looking emotional while George looked annoyed.

She captioned her post: “How it started vs how it’s going,” suggesting that their relationship was on the rocks.
Three of George’s ex-girlfriends have now spoken out about him, claiming they suffered different kinds of emotional abuse from him.
The women say they have all made 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.”
While a third claimed: “I sent everything I had. They said they would be looking into it.”

Meanwhile, a representative for George told the Daily Star he “categorically denies” all allegations.
They added: “As a father of daughters he finds these accusations deeply upsetting and does not condone abuse nor behaves in that way.
“Further, he would like to make it known that these allegations were never brought to his attention, investigated or taken further by the police for good reason as they are simply not true.”
A spokesperson for the E4 programme said: “Contributor care and safety is our priority at all times throughout this production and we ensure robust contributor care and safety protocols are in place.
“Appropriate support is available to contributors before, during and after filming and broadcast, including access to our experts and an independent psychologist.”
Daily Star has approached April for comment.
