Exclusive: Erica Roberts has broken history as the first Scottish contestant on Married at First Sight UK and hoped to bring her 'patriotic' side out with a bagpipe reception at the wedding.
Edinburgh bride Erica Roberts made Married at First Sight UK history this week when she became the first Scots contestant on the E4 reality show.
"Honestly the love I have been receiving is insane," Erica said. "People saying 'so proud to see a Scottish gal' and 'genuine Scottish girl you're making us all so proud' and it just warms my heart so much." "I think there should be so much more Scottish people on TV, they are great. It's tough because up here I feel there aren't as many opportunities compared to the likes of London and Manchester.

Erica thankfully has taken the mixed reception she received from fans when entering the show with a pinch of salt, admitting she often reads social media tweets about herself and laughs at them. She also encouraged any fellow Scots thinking of applying to "grab" the opportunity as she says it was one of the "best things" she has ever taken part in.
