Married At First Sight Australia’s Joel Moses reflected on his mother’s wedding speech after she called him a “gluttonous pig”.<\/p>\n

Look, we’ve all had a parent or family member embarrass us during an important event. However, Married At First Sight<\/a> Australia’s Joel Moses<\/a> mother, Sharon, took it to another level with her humiliating wedding speech, which he recently confronted her about.<\/p>\n

Alarms bells first started ringing for wife Juliette Chae<\/a> during Joel’s wedding vows<\/a>. He told her: “My mother says I’m perfect, but I most certainly disagree. I’ve actually got many flaws – carpet, tiles, wood, you name it, baby.”<\/p>\n

Although she saw the funny side, things took an interesting turn when it came to Joel’s mother reception speech. After congratulating the newlyweds, she mentioned how Joel was a baby who didn’t want to sleep or eat, but as he got older “\ufeffturned into a gluttonous pig”.<\/p>\n

Then it got worse…she went on to tell the guests that he still sleeps with a teddy bear and often lays on her lap for back scratches. In light of her comments, Joel has now taken to social media to jokingly call his mother out.<\/p>\n

Joel recently posted a Instagram video<\/a> featuring his mother, which made a joke of her wedding speech. He captioned it: “The internet absolutely cooked my mum for this on MAFS… so I had to confront her \ud83d\udc80\ud83e\udd75 #MAFS #mafsaustralia”<\/p>\n

At the beginning of the video, there’s a clip of her speech, with the text: “Imagine your mum embarrassing you THIS bad infront of millions of people \ud83e\udd23\ud83e\udd26\ud83c\udffb\u200d\u2642\ufe0f”<\/p>\n

It then cuts to a split screen of Joel and his mother getting a pedicure, with his foot being massaged. He goes on to say: “Way better than a back scratch, way better.”<\/p>\n

Then his mum added: “No more back scratches.” <\/p>\n

The MAFS groom then joked his mother was sacked as the “Chief Back Scratcher” since he now had a masseuse, which she was “happy” about, having waited ages to be sacked.<\/p>\n

In a recent interview<\/a> on Today’s Australia, Joel compared the crowd’s response to his mother’s speech to being like a “funeral”. <\/p>\n

He said: “Not even Ricky Gervais could get a laugh out of them. They were a terrible crowd. The worst crowd ever.”<\/p>\n

Although Gia Fleur<\/a> and Scott McCristal<\/a> were one of the MAFS couples in attendance for Joel and Juliette’s special day, he claimed they needed to “lighten up” and should have enjoyed the day.<\/p>\n
