MAFS Bride Refuses to Marry Until Groom Proposes
3 Feb
Summary
- Bride demanded a proposal before the wedding ceremony commenced.
- Alissa Fay was criticized by viewers and labeled an actress.
- Groom David Momoh felt the situation was uncomfortable and a red flag.
On Monday's premiere episode of Married At First Sight, Alissa Fay's unconventional wedding ceremony to David Momoh drew significant criticism.
The 33-year-old nurse from Adelaide insisted that David, a rapper and e-commerce manager from Brisbane, must propose to her on bended knee before she would agree to marry him.
This demand caused a prolonged and awkward exchange during the ceremony, leaving guests and the groom visibly confused. David confessed he couldn't determine if Alissa was serious.
Alissa stated she needed this gesture to feel secure and chosen, something she had long awaited. David eventually relented, though he later described her behavior as a "red flag."
Viewers reacted strongly on social media, with many labeling Alissa an "actress" and advising David to end the relationship. Some called it the most awkward wedding in the show's history.
