The MAFS UK 2024 cheating scandal is going to be a big one

It was first reported there was going to be a big cheating scandal last week, with unconfirmed reports saying it was going to be the wildest in MAFS history. According to the gossip account JetSeaGypsea: “Hell is about to break loose on MAFS UK and it’s going to happen soon.

“There is going to be an affair on the show which includes two couples, one bride and one groom. And it’s going to happen soon. The affair is going to include at least one person from the new couples… and we’re going to see it all play out on TV.”

At first, it was rumoured to be Hannah and Ryan involved in the cheating scandal

When the cheating scandal was first revealed, it looked like it was going to involve Hannah and Ryan, and they were going to be the “one bride and one groom” in question. There were unconfirmed reports that they were going to cheat on their current partners and couple up on the show.

So far we’ve seen Hannah compliment Ryan on his shoes, which then turned into the whole “shoegate” as Hannah was accused of giving Ryan a foot massage, behind the back of her groom, Stephen. Holly also claimed Hannah had told Ryan he was her “favourite boy” on the show.

But now it’s been reported as Hannah and Orson who turn MAFS UK 2024 into chaos

However there’s now a THIRD name in the mix, and it has since been reported it’s not Ryan who gets involved with Hannah, but Orson! This would definitely make sense with what we’ve been seeing so far at the retreat.

As the couples arrived at the retreat, Polly spilled: “After the commitment ceremony when Hannah was walking towards us, she said to Orson, ‘Hold my hand to make Stephen jealous.’”

A source told MailOnline: “Hannah and Orson’s betrayal is revealed during one of the commitment ceremonies after Sacha blurted out the truth behind their closeness. Their affair rocks the cast who have all been trying to navigate their marriages with advice from the relationship experts and the last thing you expect is for two couples to break their vows. It causes uproar and confusion, especially for Richelle, who hoped she could progress in her romance with Orson.”

Wait, and then Stephen cracks on with Sionainn?!

Just when you thought the cheating scandal having three people involved was wild enough, according to reports Hannah’s groom Stephen doesn’t wait around after Hannah’s betrayal, and he cracks on with Sionainn!

The MailOnline source continued: “As for Stephen, he sees Hannah cheating as an excuse to pursue another bride and he ups the ante with Sionainn despite the fact she’s married to Ryan.”

Where will this leave Ryan and Richelle?

However there’s some serious evidence Hannah and Ryan have been hanging out since MAFS UK 2024

Despite it being claimed the scandal with involve Orson, there’s heavy evidence Hannah and Ryan have been hanging out since the experiment. Over the summer it seems Ryan and Hannah got up to a lot of fun activities, including lots of music festivals.

It just so happens they went to the exact some music festival, on the same day and posted almost identical photos and videos in identical locations. You cannot tell me this picture in front of the Forbidden Forest signs wasn’t taken seconds apart. They were also both at Parklife Festival… in the exact same place at the exact same time.

So, even if they aren’t the ones directly involved in the scandal, Hannah and Ryan are at the very least still friendly after the experiment. Boy, this is a mess.
