Married At First Sight’s Michel Karen reveals she’s had lesbian relationships in the past – and describes herself as a ‘pansexual’ woman who would ‘probably fall in love with a tree’

Married At First Sight’s Mishel Karen has given an unprecedented insight into her sexuality. 

In her newly-surfaced audition tape for the show, the 48-year-old teacher told producers she’s had several female lovers in the past.  

Describing her lesbian flings, Mishel said: ‘[You know] how you have friends with benefits? Just, that she’s a girl.’ 

Mishel said her children are aware of her same-sex experiences, explaining: ‘[My kids] call me call me pansexual.’ 

‘So I think that’s the new thing. They think I’d fall in love with a tree, which I probably could because I really like trees,’ she explained with a smile.

Pansexual is defined as the sexual, romantic or emotional attraction towards people regardless of their sex or gender.

Later in the video, the reality star said she’s never shy to tell a lover what she wants in the bedroom.  

‘If it’s not good I will tell you that it’s not good,’ she declared, adding: ‘Once I did say to someone, ‘Stop, stop, stop, this is terrible”.  

On Monday’s episode Mishel and Steve played a game to help them bond during the show’s ‘intimacy week’.

However part of the action was filmed from behind a partially closed door, leading to some suggestive dialogue. 

Steve was heard saying: ‘Oh, it’s disgusting. Smells like raw fish or something! Is it fish? Is it fish? Oh, it’s gross! Get away!’ while Mishel encouraged him to ‘touch it’.

The scene then cut to Mishel giggling as she held an ordinary can of tuna up to her unsuspecting TV husband’s nose. 

Married At First Sight continues Wednesday 7.30pm on Nine.
