MARRIED At First Sight fans have branded a groom ‘David Brent’ after his cringe rap to his wife on their wedding day.
Nice guycertainly made an impression when meeting bride for the first time – but unfortunately his lyrical flow was more than Offset.
MAFS UK’s Dean rapped to his bride on their wedding day

He was warned that he was taking a huge risk, but headstrong Dean cracked on regardless and even roped in the guests for a call and response, shouting: “When I say wed, you say ding!”
Viewers were just as unimpressed as the bride, with one writing on X: “His nervous giggle sounds so much like David Brent.”
A second said: “She’s married David Brent.”
A third posted: “Dean = David Brent.”
Ahead of the big day, the grooms were discussing their wedding fears when Dean shared his plan.
He said of his vows: “I’m gonna rap them. I can freestyle.”
After delivering a taster of his musical skills, his co-stars shared their opinions in private.
Groom Joe told the cameras: “It’s probably not a good idea, Dean rapping at the end of the aisle.”
But the Feltham lad gave it a go in front of a stunned congregation, rapping cheesy lines like: “I’ve had hard times true, but I’ll never give up on you.”
It didn’t go down well with his new wife or her family, who were left cringing.
Sarah told the producers: “No, I don’t fancy Dean.
“He’s just over the top which has put me right off.
“I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed, the rap is not something I envisaged. I have to say I was not expecting that.”
Before the wedding, Sarah told producers she wanted somebody “tall with tats” and that her usual type was “bad boys” but this time she was looking for a “nice guy”.
And while she got the nice guy, she
In his pre-wedding interview, Dean said he had “been in love” but “never been loved”.
He added that “they’d been the prize, I’ve never been the prize.”
Revealing how his weight was an issue for one ex, he said: “I was with a girl and they said I was too fat. So that’s something you take with you. I’ve always felt like I’m not enough.
“Now I’m ready to find my person.”
The experts discussed their reasons for matching the unlikely pair, with Paul C Brunson explaining: “Dean is the ultimate good guy with a big heart that Sarah has been searching for.
“He’s got boundless positive energy and passion for life. They’re shared love of laughter is sure to unite them.”

Viewers watched through their fingers as Deanrapped to Sarah Mafs couples that have stood the test of time
Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.
The pair couldn’t keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam’s Doncaster home.
Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau.
Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December.
Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: “I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out – and excited for everything to come.”
Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019.
Owen recalled: “I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work.
“While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in.
“The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if I signed up?’
“A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.”
Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson.
Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna’s vegan lifestyle, the show’s first same sex pairing are still going strong.
They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod.
Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: “We’re not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship.”
