Married At First Sight UK star Thomas Hartley has come out as pansexual and claimed that he came out during filming – but it never aired.
The 31-year-old, who met and married Adrian Sanderson, 37, at the altar, has been keeping us entertained with plenty of drama on the hit E4 series.
In his latest Instagram post, the TV personality shared a TikTok of him joyously grooving to Beyonce’s Cuff It with the following posts defining pansexuality.
A pansexual is someone who is attracted to anybody (human), irrespective of their sex identity or gender identity.
‘Coming out. I came out when I was 15 as gay,’ he penned.
‘However before the show I found that I was attracted to all genders and coming to be more fluid with my gender and liberated in my sexuality, I do now understand that I am pansexual.’
Thomas clarified that he ‘resonates with cis and trans men,’ he explained that he is also attracted to cis and trans women.
He continued: ‘I am at the beginning of this journey and I am more confident than I have ever been before.
‘Pansexuality is not difficult to understand, however rather than be offended, I would rather help people understand and learn with resources and education.
‘Thanks for supporting me during MAFS and after, you have contributed to giving me the confidence to live in my truth. Also I did come out on the home stay during my ex husbands home stay, but obviously they have to condense hours of filming to one hour.’

Thomas was recently asked whether him and Adrian are still on speaking terms.
‘No, where most of the cast is concerned now I don’t want any association,’ he replied via Instagram Stories.
