Matthew Bennett, 29, is Married At First Sight’s first virgin groom.
And on Tuesday, the hunk made it clear that he was extremely nervous about the possibility of losing his virginity to ‘wife’ Lauren Huntriss on their honeymoon in South Australia.
After Lauren, 31, suggested they two share a spa bath, Matthew told producers: ‘The thought of the spa bath cripples me with fear! What could happen, what could go wrong, it may get really intimate and lead to sex.’

The spa bath was actually a free-standing bath, which would struggle to fit the pair comfortably.
Matthew went on to say: ‘I’m a little anxious about the spa bath, that’ll absolutely be the first of time I’ve ever done something like that with a woman.’
The Sydney-based makeup artist used the suggestion of the intimate experience as a way to hint she wanted to move things from the friend-zone to a more romantic level.
She bemoaned the male not kissing her, as they spent the day out in the vineyard and on a helicopter ride.

‘It may get really intimate and lead to sex and I’m just quite intimidated by that, the fact that I’ve never had sex before. I’m terrified of being intimate,’ he said, before working himself up to feel physically ill at the thought.
‘I didn’t come here to find a friend’ Lauren said, as she hoped the spa bath would help them connect further.
Unfortunately, Lauren was left unimpressed when she placed her pedicured feet towards Matthew’s face in the bubble bath without any romance ensuing.
‘Definitely not the sexy intimate spa bath that I have been waiting for. Um…It was just awkward,’ she concluded.

After building up their sexual tension during their TV wedding on Sunday, Matthew finally told Lauren he’s ‘actually still a virgin’.
While her initial reaction was to blurt out, ‘s**t!’, Lauren later told Matthew that it wasn’t a deal-breaker.
It’s unclear if the couple consummated their marriage on their honeymoon after the intimate bath session.
