Married at First Sight has been hit by so many controversies this season we’re starting to lose track…
Most recently, Aleks Markovic has come under fire as claims surfaced that there is “provocative” footage of her circulating amongst her fellow participants.

Fellow MAFS bride Mishel Karen blew the lid on rumours and told the Not Here To Make Friends podcast after Wednesday’s dinner party everything she knew about the video.
According to Mishel, Josh Pihlak and Stacey Hampton had told her about the footage, which supposedly showed Aleks “acting provocative”.
“I actually believe Stacey and I believe Josh. I wouldn’t doubt them. There’s no reason for them to lie,” she said.
Alek’s ‘husband’ Ivan Sarakula hasn’t been taken in by the gossip, however, and laughed off the rumours about his ‘wife’ in an interview with The Kyle and Jackie O Show on Thursday.
“I’d like to see it! That would be nice!” he said when asked about the footage.
But radio hosts Kyle Sandilands and Jackie ‘O’ Henderson pressed him for an answer, and he eventually said: “It’s news to us.”
During Wednesday’s episode, Aleks was accused of sleeping with Ivan and then cheating on him by going on a date with a man outside of the experiment.
After Michael Goonan laid the claims bare to the group, the conversation heated up.
Aleks said tearfully: “I feel very attacked by you now!”
To which Michael responds: “You told me you slept with him!”
“I’ve heard from both of you guys that you have,” Josh Pihlak chimed in.
Michael then doubled down, saying: “So, now you’re lying to two people?”
Aleks finally stormed off and seemingly ended things with Ivan after admitting she didn’t have romantic feelings for him.
“I love this man, but not in a romantic way,” she screamed in front of the group, before heading for the door.
