Matt and Daniel become Married At First Sight UK's first ever gay couple and appear to have instant chemistry.

Married At First Sight UK's first ever gay couple got hitched during tonight's episode and appeared to instantly hit it off.

The experts decided to pair up Matt, a 39-year-old charity worker and singer in a Take That tribute band, with 27-year-old Daniel, a holistic salesman from Northern Ireland.

The couple met for the first time when they walked down the aisle and Daniel was quick to compliment his new partner, telling him: "You're very handsome."

After the ceremony, which saw them share their first kiss, Daniel told the cameras that he was very pleased with his match.

"So far - great personality, stunning smile, great teeth, the overall package... I want to unwrap it!" he said.

The issue of the 12-year age gap was discovered when they posed for their wedding photos, but neither seemed to be fazed.

"I wasn't expecting someone to be that much younger than me," Matt admitted. "But actually he seems very mature and he's in the same headspace as me, which is very exciting.

"It does feel really natural. There's a spark of chemistry and I'm really excited about that."

Later, back at their hotel, Matt carried Daniel over the threshold before Daniel ushered the cameras out of the room as they spent their first night together.

Married At First Sight UK continues Wednesday at 9pm on E4.
