MAFS AU: Dave Hughes rips into ‘horny mum’ controversy
Dave Hughes rips into Married at First Sight wondering why ‘horny mom’ Melissa was paired with Josh who was ‘withdrawn from r**ting’
Dave Hughes has ripped into Channel Nine’s Married at First Sight.
In a foul-mouthed stand-up routine, the 52-year-old prankster mocked the final season with Josh White, 40, and frisky divorcee Melissa Sheppard, 41.
Hughes criticized the couple as a mismatch between “Australia’s hottest mum” and a “retired” husband.
MAFS sparked controversy this year when the show paired the “sex-obsessed” Sheppard with White, who appeared more shy on screen.
Hughes posted a snippet of his routine to Instagram on Thursday, captioning the clip “The problem with MAFS.”

Hughes starts his routine by saying that this year’s MAFS was ‘Australia’s hottest mum’.
“And I respected her,” he joked. “A horny mom who liked to tell people how horny she was and how good she was.”
During the video, Hughes can be seen mocking the White/Sheppard “marriage,” telling his audience that if he was an “expert” on the show, he would have paired Sheppard with a “19-year-old man.”
“He’s ready for the r**ting she wants to do,” he joked, before wondering why, “they put her with a dude who was almost 50!”
It comes after Married At First Sight star Sheppard broke her silence after she was criticized for her appalling behavior towards her on-screen husband.
The 41-year-old hairdresser made some shocking claims about her ex Josh White during the broadcast The Kyle and Jackie O Show in February.

She accused him of being a “different person” in one-on-one interviews with producers and revealing unflattering details about their sex lives.
The single mom also said her portrayal as an overly demanding lover was unfair and she only wanted sex “two to three times” a week.
Melissa explained that while things started well with Josh on their honeymoon, their relationship went downhill when they moved in together.
“Josh is a completely different person to me and he would go to [film] these vox pops. I felt like I was sleeping with a secret assassin,” she added.
