Married at First Sight Australia chaos as bride suffers shock injury en route to the wedding
ON MAFS Australia tonight one wedding devolved into chaos as the bride suffered a shock injury en route to the altar.
Natalie Parham, 32, tripped while walking in her heels across a field to her groom - not once but three times.
The physiotherapist from Melbourne was left needing some of her own services after spraining her ankle while trying to continue limping towards her wedding ceremony.
Natalie got back on her feet after the first fall, but the second saw her needing assistance to make it the rest of the way to the altar.
Production crew had to step in and carry her to the aisle after the accident left her unable to stand on her own two feet.
As a group of four rushed through the park with their "precious cargo", Natalie could be heard calling out: "Do we have mic tape, the sports tape? I can tape my foot!"

Once the bride finally made it to the aisle she seemed to be walking again, but only for a moment before she tripped for the third time.
However, she did not let the mishaps hold her back from pledging her eternal love to new partner Collins.
After they eventually managed to say their vows - without any further incidents - the couple got to spend some time alone together.
Natalie told him about her tumbles, giggling: "You could say that I...fell for you!"

Viewers at home took to social media to share their thoughts on the incident, with one person laughing: "The legs have gone. I love Natalie."
Another hit out at show bosses, saying: "What were the producers thinking? 'OK Nat - put these high heels on and walk across an uneven park. It's not far... maybe 7 or 8 miles? No worries, mate.'"
A third agreed, asking: "Why has she got to walk a bloody mile ???"
A fourth joked: "I'm guessing MAFS Australia are not using that venue next year?"
