Chris' MAFS Australia appearance is branded 'irresponsible' as he continues to hide his babies from Sam
Chris is expecting children with two womenMAFS Australia fans have blasted the decision to let Chris Robinson on the show as “irresponsible”.
Chris, 38, married Sam Stanton, 34, this week in the E4 series but failed to tell him that he has two babies on the way.
In the months after their nuptials, he is expecting a baby with a surrogate and one with his lesbian friend.
Furious viewers of the show have now hit out at producers for allowing him to marry a stranger when he is about to become a dad to two newborns.
The decision has been branded “selfish” and “wrong”, with on fan questioning MAFS Australia’s “morals”.
MAFS Australia’s Chris expecting two children
Chris made it clear in his introductory MAFS Australia scenes that he is expecting two babies very soon.
He said in his intro: “It’s really important for me that my match wants kids or is open to the idea of children. I’ve wanted to be a father for so long and as I’ve got older, I feel like I can’t wait to bring a little human into this world.
“So it’s wild, absolutely wild, but I’m pregnant. Not me, obviously. There’s two children coming. I have one coming very soon and then have another one coming next year.”

Chris explained: “I’m a donor daddy for a friend of mine who’s a lesbian. Then I’m also having my own child through surrogacy.”
MAFS Australia expert John Aiken asked Chris how he planned to reveal his baby news to his husband.
He said: “It’s a tough one. In the dating world. I like to bring it up as soon as possible, so there is no issues.
“So two children coming… I know it’s a lot for my future husband but I’m going to make the best dad and hope my match will do the same.”
The trouble is, and as fans will know, he still hasn’t told Sam…
MAFS fans slam Chris’ appearance on show
MAFS Australia fans have been quick to share their opinions on Chris’ impending fatherhood. And many think it is a bad idea that he’s been allowed to marry a stranger on the show.
Writing in a MAFS Australia fan group on Facebook, one viewer asked: “Does anyone think it’s a little irresponsible of Chris to rock up to MAFs with a couple of kids on the way .. not really giving his husband a chance?
“I think it’s a bit unfair. I don’t have a problem with gay marriage or kids within that marriage but it’s certainly taking a chance with those little ones.”
Viewers were very quick to reply – and they were almost all in agreement.
“I actually can’t believe they let him on the show to pull this stunt. Blindsiding people, it’s pathetic,” one fumed.
Another added: “Why have the show taken him on? They wouldn’t have a pregnant lady on and rightly so. So why have a man who has 2 children on the way?”
A third wrote: “Bringing a new born baby into such a new relationship is very selfish and wrong. MAFS seems to have lost its morals.”
And someone else shared: “The problem I have is why he was allowed to go on MAFS. Like, a woman going on that’s having twins… Even in gay relationships people usually get together first then talk about children.”
However, another person said: “Gia turned up with a 10 year old child, isn’t that the same?”
Although we are yet to see it yet in the UK, Chris does eventually tell his new husband Sam that he’s about to become a dad.
How Sam reacts, however, remains to be seen.
