THIS is the shocking moment a Married At First Sight groom made a surprising comment about his brand new bride's children.
The latest series of the Australian version of the show is sending shockwaves thanks to a slew of dramatic moments and countless twists and turns.
One of the newly matched couples, Adrian and Awhina were left butting heads when Adrian made a comment about not being able to love his new wife's children.
Awhina had children from a previous relationship before entering into her MAFS marriage with Adrian but he was quick to make his feelings on the situation known.
As the couple discussed the importance of family, they both admitted it was "important" to have a family during their marriage.
Awhina then admitted she wanted to have "more children and build on my already family."
However, Adrian then appeared uncomfortable as he responded to her comments about her "already family".
He said: "Having a kid is a special moment in your life.
"I don't know how I feel about you having experienced that with someone else.
"Like my biggest thing is I sort of want to share that special moment as a first with someone else."
Awhina looked on shocked as she seemed rattled by the comments he was making.
She turned her head away as Adrian continued to air his thoughts in which he appeared to get his words in a bit of a muddle.
Adrian said: "If I'm being 100% honest, I don't know if I can love my kids as much as your kids."
It seemed that when he actually meant to say is that he wasn't sure if he would be able to love Awhina's existing children as much as ones that they may go on to have together in the future.
His comments left many MAFS fans insisting he was a red flag as one said: "Red flag. Wouldn’t even get involved with any guy who would say that."
As another echoed: "I don't think he should be reproducing at all actually."
But others were also quick to jump in to defend him as they praised his honesty and telling his new wife exactly how he felt.
They wrote: He’s being honest. Taking on another man’s child is a big thing and doesn’t make him a bad person for admitting he doesn’t think he can do it.
"I don’t think that makes it a red flag.
"I think it’s a massive green flag he is being honest."
As someone else added: "I love the openness of this guy, he isn’t disrespectful, he is open, honest and transparent with the fact he has never been in that situation before…"
