Married At First Sight star Bob Voysey has recalled the ‘awkwardness’ of his girlfriend having to watch him kiss someone else on TV.
The 26-year-old, from Bournemouth, revealed that he met his girlfriend before he went on the reality dating show, but added that she gave him her blessing to take part.
The duo met through a mutual friend and it went from there, but shortly before having his MAFS application accepted they decided they were at ‘different points in their lives.’
However, after going separate ways with his wife Meghan Wolfe, the business protection specialist has confirmed he is now officially with the girl he was dating.
‘There was one night we watched it together when I was round hers and we watched it and it was awkward,’ he said, speaking to OK! magazine. ‘In that episode it was one where Megan and I made up and had a kiss. It was probably more awkward for her, watching her partner kiss someone else on national TV.’

Bob explained that he met his girlfriend in October last year after he’d applied for the show but after several months passed, he tried to forget about it and the pair started dating.
‘We were at different stages in our life and we thought there were too many obstacles and we cooled things off,’ he said.
‘Then literally, no joking, say this was on a Friday, on the Monday or Tuesday the following week I got the message from MAFS to say I’d been accepted.
‘We went for a little drive and I spoke to her and she gave me her blessing and said I needed someone who’d love me, so I went to do the show.’

It comes after Bob, who burst into tears nearly every episode as he struggled to make his marriage to Megan Wolfe work, revealed he has already moved on with a ‘really lovely’ woman.
Talking to the MAFS Lessons podcast, Bob said: ‘I am sort of seeing someone, just seeing how it’s going for the minute. It’s difficult because she’s not in this world at all.
‘She’s just a normal person, really grounded, mature, lovely. We are just seeing what’s happening. It’s a weird experience, so I don’t know how serious it’s going to get. There’s something there.’
Bob also went on to talk about how he developed a friendship with Megan.

Bon and wife Megan were at loggerheads during their marriage, and after a tense honeymoon, she cheated on him with fellow Married At First Sight star Jordon Mondell.
With their relationship in tatters, a tearful Bob decided to give Megan another chance before the pair ultimately decided to call it quits and later forged a close friendship.
Speaking about their journey, Bob said: ‘I Iove her, but I don’t mean it in that sense. We can both see why we were paired together, why we were matched, we get on like a house on fire; there’s no question that we have the same personality and care about each other.
‘I was on FaceTime with her for about an hour this morning, we talk about the episodes and what we went though and it’s good – we are on a really good basis. We went through this experience together still, we got married at the end of the day! So we have that respect for each other.
‘We’ve said to each other that we are at the other end of the phone to speak to and call, and I’m glad.’
