I'm just a sucker for love!"

MAFS' Erica Roberts and Jordan Gayle talk tying the knot on telly

- LAUREN MORRIS

With its explosive dinner parties and emotional commitment ceremonies Married At First Sight UK is packed with drama – but things will get even more explosive when a new bride and groom get hitched this week.

Arriving late to the party are Sheffield-based personal trainer Jordan Gayle, 26, and Scottish dance teacher Erica Roberts, 25, who despite their young age are ready to swap messy nights out on the town for marriage, children and a white picket fence.

“I’m a hopeless romantic,” Edinburgh-based Erica tells new. “I hate this generation, I should have been born ages ago. I’m an old soul. It’s so hard to find good, genuine people that want the same as you these days.”

After being scarred by past relationships and taking time to work on herself, Erica is hoping the MAFS UK experts will revive her currently “non-existent” love life.

“I feel like I’m now at a really good place where I’m ready to dive back in,” she says. “People shy away from giving themselves to someone because they’ve got trust issues, they’ve been hurt. But with me, even though those things have happened to me, I will still give my all to someone when I’m with them.

“I’m an ‘all or nothing’ person. The blinkers go on – I don’t see anyone else, it’s just them. I just become infatuated by that person and adore them when I’m in it.”

Let’s hope Erica will fall head-over-heels for Jordan, who she’ll be meeting at the end of the MAFS UK aisle.
