MAFS UK groom rushed to hospital and sparks concern with A&E snap
MAFS UK groom JJ Slater has been rushed to hospital and sparked concern with a snap of him in A&E.
JJ, 30, shared a snap on his instagram of him lying in a hospital bed with heart monitors strapped to his chest.
JJ, who entered the experiment with wife Bianca Petronzi but then partner-swapped to Ella Morgan, had his top lifted up in the image, while various equipment was hooked up to his chest.
The reality star did not elaborate on what he was being tested for, but it appeared like he was being monitored by an ECG machine which looks at the heart.
JJ looked rather dazed in the snap, with his eyes not fully open.
He did reassure fans, however, that they didn’t needn’t worry.
JJ captioned the shot, which was shared to his stories, “Happy Wednesday” followed by a heart hands and crying emojs.
He added beneath with an asterisk: “I’m doing ok btw”.
The Sun has reached out to a rep for JJ for comment.
The Essex lad appeared on MAFS as a late arrival, joining as one of the intruder couples halfway through.
His obvious chemistry with Ella over his original match Bianca set tongues wagging, and culminated in an explosive dinner party where their flirtation and secret meetings were exposed.
The pair then re-entered the experiment as a new couple and made it all the way to the end for the final vows.
Sadly, at the last hurdle, they decided they were better off as friends and chose not to leave the process as an item.
Since leaving the show, The Sun revealed JJ has been in talks with Towie producers, who have had their eye on him after being impressed with his turn on MAFS.
A source was first to tell us: “JJ has made quite the impact on Married At First Sight, thanks to all the headlines generated by him ‘wife swapping’ with Ella, and he’s caught the eye of Towie bosses.
“They think he would be a perfect fit for their show – he’s from Essex, he looks good and having starred on MAFS, clearly knows how to bring drama.”
