Controversial MAFS UK star to strip NAKED live on TV as he makes second attempt at finding love
BOSSES at Rylan Clark's racy reality series Dating Naked UK have signed up MAFS star Luke Worley to strip off on TV. The dating show, based on an American format, launched on Paramount+ last year, and is currently casting a new crop of sexy singletons for the second series. 6 6 Rylan, 36, recently revealed that the second series would be getting a massive revamp, and now a familiar face to MAFS UK fans has signed up. A TV source said: "The girls are pretty much sorted but they're still casting for male stars. "That's why they're open to people who've been on reality TV before." An insider says bosses were over the moon when they persuaded hunky fitness coach and MAFS star Arthur Poremba to sign up. But just weeks after agreeing to take part, Arthur pulled out because he'd met someone and was no longer single. Our mole added: "He's happy to strip off and they're certain he'll bring a lot of drama." Luke first appeared on MAFS back in 2023 and was partnered up with Jay Howard. He was booted off the show after having a fight with co-star, Jordan Gayle. Despite seeming to get on well during the show, Jay later confirmed they went their separate ways. At the reunion, she told her co-stars: "He literally basically just said, like, we are better off just being friends. Mafs UK's Jay Howard reveals what really happened in her split from Luke Worley "I asked him what he wanted, but he couldn't answer the question." Filming for the second series of Dating Naked UK will start this summer. The Sun has contacted representatives of Luke for comment. In February last year, Luke introduced his then-girlfriend Hannah Lynch to his followers, as he called her his "rocket". 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." But six months after going Instagram official, Luke revealed on social media that the pair had split. An intrigued fan asked Luke during a Q&A in August: "Are you still with somebody?" Luke replied: "Nope, back to the drawing board," and added a screen shot of his Hinge dating profile. 6 6 6 6

Married At First Sight star reveals devastating cryptic pregnancy in heartbreaking admission
Married At First Sight star Laura Vaughan has revealed she suffered a devastating cryptic pregnancy, that she didn't discover until the third trimester. The reality star, 35, who recently announced that she had found love again after her failed union on the show, opened up about the traumatic experience, which happened in 2016. She was forced to undergo a medical abortion after unknowingly putting her foetus at risk of 'extreme harm' and defects with the drug she was taking to treat her acne. Laura told The Sun: 'It was very difficult because I went from not thinking I was pregnant to being seven months pregnant to then having a very prolonged abortion and where I was so far gone. 'Then, when I got home from the procedure, my milk came in, which, as you can imagine, was just really hard to deal with. 'I hunkered down at home for weeks and didn't talk to anyone.' Laura appeared on Married at First Sight in 2023 when she was paired with Arthur Poremba, but their union was not to last after she realised he couldn't give her what she wanted in a marriage. Reflecting on her cryptic pregnancy, Laura said she thought it was 'impossible' when she first discovered that she was pregnant. This shock was only worsened when she was told that she was in the third trimester. While the star had sought treatment for her missing period and stomach cramps, her GP told her it was the result of a 'ruptured cyst' and not a pregnancy. However, she admits she was referred for an additional scan at the time but failed to book it in. Laura said that despite being so far along, she was able to fit into six 6 to 8 dresses, which also left her convinced that her GP's diagnosis was the correct one. She added: 'It was literally the week I decided to test that my stomach popped, and I remember thinking "this isn't right".' The situation went from bad to worse when Laura discovered the effect that her acne drug, Isotretinoin, is responsible for birth defects. Laura speculates that the pregnancy was the result of an expired condom as she remembers using protection. Those taking the acne drug should be advised to use two methods of contraception because of the immense risk to an unborn unborn foetus, according to dermatologists. Laura said that due to the advanced stage of her pregnancy, she was offered a medical abortion and it impacted her 'heavily'. Some of the issues she faced were the pain of the procedure itself, which lasted a week instead of a day and a half, and an alleged lack of support from medical staff, who she claims forgot to feed her on occasion. The star is hoping that by speaking out about her experience, she can dispel some of the shame that exists around planned abortions. Referring to her stint on MAFS, she said she chose not to tell producers about the ordeal but was forced to confront it anyway when discussing future family plans with husband Arthur. Laura, who said she is smitten with her new partner, said they have discussed the possibility of having children and neither of them see it in their future. If you or someone you know has been affected by baby loss, help is available from Tommy's in the UK on 0800 0147 800 or email midwife@ How common are cryptic pregnancies? One in 450 pregnant women in the UK don't know they are going to have a baby until week 20 of their pregnancy (half-way through), and one in 2,500 women are oblivious to the fact until they go into labour. It's a phenomenon known as cryptic pregnancy - also referred to as 'pregnancy denial'. Cryptic pregnancies typically affect either young women, who have never experienced a pregnancy, or women who believe they've gone through the menopause and who choose not to use contraception. Women with erratic menstrual cycles are also more likely to miss signs they are expecting. This is especially true among women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), where small cysts grow on the ovaries; the hormone imbalance often leads to irregular or non-existent periods. Yet there are some women who will continue to have monthly bleeds throughout their pregnancy. In this case, a scan at the local GP may be the only method of confirmation. Women may simply not expect to find they are pregnant if they are taking the Pill - but then those taking it religiously can still become pregnant. Eight in 100 women can get pregnant while on the Pill - usually not because of problems with the Pill, but with the taker, either because they've missed the Pill, thrown up or had diarrhoea.
