After the pair exchanged their wedding rings and said their vows, the registrar declared: “Leisha and Reiss, it’s my huge pleasure to proudly announce you husband and wife.”
The new couple awkwardly leaned in for two kisses on the cheek before stepping back from one another.
Their guests looked on with confused looks on their faces as they clapped for the pair.
It appears the moment didn’t go unnoticed by viewers at home either as they flocked to Reddit to share their thoughts and they didn’t hold back.
Taking to the discussion platform, one person penned: “Most awkward kiss everrrrr,” as another agreed: “This is the most awkward kiss ever.”
Somebody else commented: “My god that was an awkward kiss,” as yet another who clearly isn’t a fan of Reiss said: “This guy is so up himself. Gross.”
A fifth added: “’I consider myself a pretty boy’ from the supermarket pickup artist. Feeling sick already.”
It wasn’t the only awkward moment on the E4 show, painter and decorator Reiss struggled as Leisha and her bridesmaid fired a series of questions at him.
During their wedding reception, Leisha asked her new husband: “What’s your exes been like?”
Reiss explained that his ex girlfriends have been “all different”, saying he focuses on a “connection”.
Leisha asked: “Do you get a lot of attention?,” to which he replied: “No, not really.”
Speaking to the camera away from her husband, Leisha said: “I’m so happy with how things are going with me and Reiss.
“It’s in my nature to ask these questions, so I’m just going to keep asking them and I truly want to get to know him to his core.”
Looking uncomfortable, Reiss was then quizzed by the bridesmaid, who asked: “So how many exes have you had?”
Reiss said he’s not one for dating apps and has been longing to be in a relationship.
He said: “Four exes, luckily I’ve never actually dated a psychos.”
They then asked if jealousy on his behalf had caused the relationships to end, which he insisted was not the case.
But the interrogation didn’t stop there. The bridesmaid then asked if he would like kids and Reiss replied: “100% yeah.”
This prompted Leisha to then press him on what he would call his child.
Reiss quickly replied: “Frankie,” which Leisha agreed was a good name.
Speaking in her confessional, Leisha said: “Him telling me he wants kids is a massive turn on for me, I’m ovulating.”
While Reiss felt very differently, saying the the camera: “It started off as a grilling, there’s a lot to take in.”
Ahead of the experiment, Reiss spoke out about his hopes for the show and the kind of bride he was hoping to marry.
He described his ideal bride as “someone blonde, petite with an element of glamour”.
He has previously enjoyed a brush with fame thanks to his romance with TOWIE star Dani Imbert.
