Right, why wasn’t controversial groom Alex at the boys’ night on MAFS UK?
Will this man ever not be at the centre of gossip?
In the most recent episode of MAFS UK 2024, the boys went on a night out – but it was noted that Alex Henry was nowhere to be seen. His former wife Holly came back for girls’ night, but Alex didn’t join his fellow grooms.
Prior to the boys heading out, Alex and Holly quit the experiment. Then, as the final vows loom, the boys still in the experiment went out for drinks, and in came the former grooms, too. They offered some stern home truths, and questioned if those left on the show are really still invested in their relationships.
So, where was Alex Henry during the MAFS UK 2024 boys’ night?
There was a wild rumour that Alex didn’t come to boys’ night on MAFS UK because he was in prison. It was previously reported that Alex was jailed after appearing on the show, because he was denied leave from his position in the RAF. According to The Sun, Alex worked at RAF Spadeadam as an air specialist, and asked his commander for additional leave last winter in order to attend filming for MAFS UK 2024.
He was denied leave, but decided to go and film regardless. As such he was seized by police and sentenced to 34 days in military prison. Then, he was allegedly sacked from his job.
So, people on TikTok thought that because the boys’ night came after Alex quit the show, he wasn’t there because he was in prison. However, Channel 4 confirmed to The Tab that this was not the case, and Alex was not in prison when filming for this episode took place.

Alex told The Tab there was “some tea” to spill regarding his absence, but wouldn’t share any further details. It’s been reported Alex also skipped filming for the reunion, so the likelihood is that there was a reason behind both of the snubs.
A source told The Sun: “Alex didn’t film either of the two reunion episodes, which seemed really odd to the rest of the cast. It was unclear whether it was Channel 4’s decision or his own, but there was a lot of chatter about it amongst the brides and grooms who expected him to be there with his ex, Holly.”
So, he either wasn’t invited to boys’ night, or just didn’t bother turning up.
