With the latest series of Married At First Sight UK in full swing, fans are loving all the drama the show bring and are unsurprisingly digging deep into the contestants’ past.
Following an outrageous amount of research, reality TV enthusiasts have uncovered some old pictures of Brad Skelly looking very different to how he does now.
Taken between 2013 and 2016, the images of the bad boy on his Instagram page show a person who looks worlds apart from how he does today. With backwards-facing caps, American sports vests and a plethora of mirror selfies, fans can’t even believe it’s the same person.
As it turns out, the contestant used to work a very interesting job prior to getting his iconic facial and neck tattoos. Believe it or not, he used to be a naked butler.

Pictures show the significantly less tattooed, youngster, with a clean-shaven look as he sports a short quiff. But now, it’s fair to say, his new image makes him look a lot less innocent than he did in his teenage years.
Deciding it’s time to settle down, the 27-year-old star entered the show in the hopes of meeting the woman of his dreams and to the delight of the fans, Paul C Brunson and the rest of the experts partnered him up with Shona Manderson. On paper, the pair seemed compatible, and the viewers started to root for them. But things soon took a turn, with the couple stumbling on hard times.
During one of the dinner parties, the pair fell out after the other couples put their connection on trial and during a recent commitment ceremony, they had to face the music of sitting down with the experts. Frustrated with his wife, Brad told Shona to ‘Shut up’ in front of the other newylweds and said she was emotionally immature after she expressed concerns with what her co-stars had said.

Viewers watched on as Brad made a series of controversial comments. He claimed Shona was “emotionally immature'”and suggested that he was, “Teaching’ her about her anger.” He said: “Not that I’m in a position of authority or to teach her, but if I allow her to get angry, is she ever going to learn?”
Picking up on what he said, expert Mel Schilling, took issue with his language, claiming that his behaviour could take a ‘”dangerous” turn. Unsurprisingly, his polarising opinions split the viewers. While some felt he was trying to help Shona, others were disgusted with his behaviour.
Frustrated with what they’d seen, the fans took to social media to express their dismay. One person tweeted: “‘Brad speaks and acts like some deranged cult leader.” The pair later decided to leave the show on the advice of the experts and have since split up.
