MAFS UK’s Alex Henry discusses potential wife swap just minutes into show as fans brand groom ‘a red flag’ -after he is jailed for going AWOL from RAF base
As a seasoned viewer of reality TV shows, I must say that Married At First Sight never fails to deliver a rollercoaster of emotions. However, this year’s contestant, Alex Henry, has certainly taken the drama to a whole new level.
On Monday night, the eagerly awaited comeback of “Married At First Sight” graced our screens, and one groom has been generating quite the buzz straight away.
On their final nights out before marriage, the bride- and groom-to-be celebrated their bachelorhood/bachelorettehood at separate events. However, it appeared that Alex Henry might have been contemplating a possible switch of partners.
Shortly following introductions with his fellow actors, the RAF airman (later imprisoned for deserting his post to participate in the series) sparked a contentious disagreement.
He pondered, “Suppose I’ve lost feelings for my wife, and there’s another woman who catches my interest… Should I explore all possible scenarios?
‘Just because you’ve been matched up to somebody doesn’t mean you are going to like them.’

After hearing Alex’s remarks, the rest of the group was taken aback. Charlie reacted by saying, “Then why don’t you try being single yourself, outside of this study!
Appearing taken aback by everyone’s response, he expressed to the camera: “It seems people are assuming I’m here to take someone else’s wife based on my perspective.
Viewers at home were left in shock, claiming Alex’s comments were a ‘big red flag.’
“Wondering if the ‘wife swap’ participant is already contemplating his wife swap when he’s barely on the show? I just hope he gets removed before he reaches the altar.” or “Thinking it’s suspicious that this ‘wife swap’ contestant seems to be considering someone else’s wife so soon. Maybe he’s not there for honorable reasons.
suggestion for paraphrasing the given sentences in a more natural and easy-to-read way:
“Good gracious, warning signs everywhere… red flags galore!”;
This week it was revealed Alex had been jailed for abandoning his post to go on the Channel 4 dating show.
An Royal Air Force serviceman left his duty station at an electronic warfare facility, possibly motivated by affection or ambition, against the wishes of his superior officer. However, he managed to appear on television, even though he was not granted approval for this by his commanding officer.









He was based at RAF Spadeadam, located in Cumbria, yet his request for additional time off to participate was denied.
In my own words, as a lifestyle advisor, I’d put it this way: Upon my recent arrival back home in Birmingham, I found myself in an unexpected situation when I was apprehended by the military police. Subsequently, I served a 24-day term of a 34-day sentence they had imposed.
According to his representative, he willingly went back following the completion of his filming duties and surrendered himself to the military officials.
‘He was sentenced to 34 days in a military prison and served 24 as a model inmate.’
