Married At First Sight star Poppy Jennings has caused a stir after getting hitched on last night’s show.
On Monday night, viewers later watched Poppy say “I do” to FIFO worker Luke. However she clearly battled with her emotions after leaving her two-year-old twins to appear on the show.

It initially seemed like the couple got off to a stellar start, however Poppy quickly turned.
“I just keep thinking to myself, what the f**k are you doing?” she revealed as she was getting ready for the event.
“This is the most petrified I’ve ever been in my life,” she added, admitting that she’d been crying non-stop after saying goodbye to her two-year-old twins.
“It’s only been one day and I’m already really upset about it,” she confessed – leaving many wondering just how she’ll cope being away from the tots for several weeks.
Despite her panic, the 38-year-old exchanged vows with Luke – who is a father of two himself, to two teenage girls.
“I think there is a spark there,” the FIFO worker quipped after the ceremony, which seemed to go off without a hitch.
But it wasn’t long after the rings were on that Poppy began to feel “overwhelmed” again, and threatened to quit the show, leaving poor Luke confused.
“Initially, I was okay… He’s really nice, a nice genuine person. We clicked,” she shared, fighting back tears.
“But I’m not over the fact that I left my kids to do this.”
“I feel guilty… I don’t know if I can do it.”
Poppy’s best friends were able to get her to commit to staying giving Luke a go.
However fans of the show have since taken to social media to slam the reality-TV star.
One person said: “Poppy is seriously insensitive and selfish towards Luke’ while another shared a meme of Disney villain Ursula and added: ‘Poppy seems cold”.
Another added: “New drinking game Have a drink every time poppy mentions she has kids. You’ll be blind in 2.5 minutes”.
Someone else chimed in: “Anyone who was stupid enough to play the ‘”take a swig every time Poppy mentions her kids” is now comatose”.
Other fans expressed their anger towards Poppy for playing games with Luke.
“Half of me is annoyed that I fell for being manipulated into liking Poppy for the first 30 minutes of the show and the other half is ecstatic because now I get to give her s**t for the next six weeks,” a fan tweeted.
Another added: ‘Poppy I had such high hopes!’
One things for sure: we cannot wait for tonight’s episode.
