Married At First Sight UK will remove new bride Nikita from the series tonight following an explosive argument at the first dinner party.

Nikita has been coming under fire from fans for her behaviour towards new husband Ant from the moment they first met at the top of the aisle.

During their honeymoon, she was seen screaming and throwing a coffee cup at him during a row.

But it’s all set to come to a head tonight when the pair reunite with the other seven couples taking part in the experiment – with Nikita being removed as a result of her "unacceptable behaviour".

A spokesperson for Channel 4 confirmed the news to Yahoo and said in a statement: “The wellbeing of cast and crew is our utmost priority at all times throughout production and beyond.

“During filming, a situation escalated off-camera and Nikita displayed a level of aggression that was unacceptable and breached our agreed code of conduct on behaviour. As a result, she was asked to leave the experiment.

“All involved have been offered support and Nikita has since apologised and resolved the situation with those involved.”

The start of the argument will air on tonight’s episode of the E4 reality series, but the actual incident that caused her removal wasn’t caught by cameras.

Her behaviour had already caused alarm bells to ring for viewers and the match-makers, with Paul Carrick Brunson declaring her "shallow" when she listed a long string of physical attributes she wanted in a future husband.

When she finally met Ant, who did fit a number of her demands, she raged: "They've just done the total f***ing opposite of what I've asked for.

"I mean obviously I was talking about looks quite a lot. Looks was a huge thing to me and I don't think they've listened to what I said."

Their argument on holiday escalated when she kept insisting he compliment her boobs and bum, and he became uncomfortable.

Nikita had previously appeared on two dating shows alongside her ex-boyfriend Billy, causing fans to think she joined Married At First Sight UK for fame.

She appeared on Comedy Central’s Your Face Or Mine, before joining Billy on MTV’s True Love Or True Lies in 2018.

Married At First Sight UK continues tonight at 9pm on E4.
