EXCLUSIVE: MAFS resident sexpert Charlene Douglas addresses the explosive new series and reveals why her 'heart broke' watching one of her favourite couples fall apart
Married At First Sight UK’s resident sexpert Charlene Douglas has promised a “jaw-dropping” new series when the hit reality show returns on Monday, 18 September.
Last year’s series was the seventh in the British run, and thanks to betrayals, secret kisses and heartbreak, it became one of the most talked about shows of the year. Speaking about social worker Chanita Stephenson, who won over the nation with her bubbly personality after marrying Jordan Emmett-Connelly in the 2022 series of the E4 show, Charlene reveals her sadness when she saw their relationship crumbling.“The way she handled herself was so mature, seeing her heart breaking towards the end broke my heart. But she handled it with a lot of grace and dignity, she does her best to be respectful to everyone.
As a professional sex therapist, Charlene is tasked with helping the couples navigate the sometimes tricky intimate aspects of their relationship. But it comes easily to her, she says, as for the past 10 years her “whole world has been talking to people about sex and relationships”. “A lot of the DMs I got were about that scene. And in particular other couples realising they don’t always have to go down the route of penetrative sex to have a healthy sexual experience together.”
“It taught me a lot because people were writing in about things that had happened to them. It was so fascinating. It was before the internet so there was nowhere to find out that information and you couldn’t have those conversations with your parents.”
