love at first sight for 31-year-olds Whitney and Duka, after the former made it clear that she wasn\u2019t impressed with the match.<\/p>\n<p>While recruitment HR coordinator Duka considers himself a man about town, he revealed that he struggled as a child after fleeing former Yugoslavia with his family to escape conflict and moving to the UK at the age of 10, not knowing a word of English. As for Whitney, the St Albans-based personal assistant admits that she doesn\u2019t make the best first impression with people but has recently lost her mother and is ready to give love a chance.<\/p>\n<p>However, after walking down the aisle in front of both contestants\u2019 friends and families, Whitney awkwardly reveals that she\u2019s ready to do a runner, telling the camera away from the ceremony that she wanted a \u201cbrick house\u201d of a man but that Duka is more of a \u201cshed\u201d. While at the end of the episode, they appeared to grow closer after Whitney opened up about her mother, it may be a bumpy road ahead for these lovebirds.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;editor-content\" mb-lg=\"\" hidden-print=\"\" js-piano-locked-content=\"\" data-placement=\"&quot;Body&quot;\">\n<p><strong>Married at First Sight UK airs Monday to Thursday at 9pm on E4. <\/strong><strong>If you\u2019re looking for more to watch, check out our\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener&quot; noopener noreferrer\">TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0or visit our hub for more\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/entertainment\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener noopener noreferrer\" noreferrer=\"\">Entertainment<\/a>\u00a0news.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The latest issue of Radio Times is on sale now \u2013\u00a0<a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/magazine-subscription\/&quot;\" target=\"&quot;_blank&quot;\" rel=\"&quot;noopener noopener noreferrer\" noreferrer=\"\" data-auth=\"&quot;NotApplicable&quot;\" data-linkindex=\"&quot;0&quot;\">subscribe now<\/a>\u00a0to get each issue delivered to your door.
