Married at First Sight (MAFS) star Ella Morgan has revealed how the murder of Brianna Ghey inspired her to speak openly about her experience of being transgender to honour those who do not “get to live their life authentically.”
In a candid admission about her own mental health to mark Transgender Day of Remembrance, the campaigner — who was the first transgender bride on the E4 series — reflected on how she has had to "fight for her existence" and paid tribute to Brianna, whose murder led to UK-wide protests and vigils.

'I still see myself as a woman, whether it's on paper or not'
says trans woman Ella Morgan after the Supreme Court ruled the definition of a woman is based on biological sex.
Ella Morgan first appeared on our televisions on Married at First Sight as the show’s first transgender participant.
Since then she has become an advocate for the trans community, breaking barriers and encouraging conversations to help everyone learn, understand and support.
This is a story about a woman, who has had to fight to be called a woman.
In this conversation you'll hear about:
- Ella's transition story: How did her friends and family receive her revelation? Did she expect that reaction?
- The hindrance being closeted had on her mental health.
- The best advice for parents with trans children. What to do and what not to do.
- Gender reassignment surgery - it’s not an easy road.
- The truth behind her public relationships on Married At First Sight and Celebs Go Dating.
Ella’s story is not one everyone can personally relate with, but it is one everyone can absolutely learn from.
