Yahoo News MAFS UK's Georges Berthonneau unveils Movember transformation
Married at First Sight UK star Georges Berthonneau has unveiled a Movember transformation.
The reality star, who appeared on the eighth season of the hit dating experiment, took to his Instagram Stories on Saturday (November 9) to show off his new look.
Ditching his signature beard in favour of a thick moustache, the image saw Georges smiling into the camera to commemorate the Movember movement – a global initiative that raises awareness of men's health issues.
The event involves growing a moustache during the month of November to help continue the conversation about men's health, while challenging the status quo.

This isn't the first time Georges has sported a moustache for Movember, with the star previously opening up about how important the cause is.
"Something that is close to my heart is speaking up and being in touch with your emotions," he said in November 2023.
"As a man, the stigma of holding onto things and bottling it up is very common, but I provide a safe space for people to talk on my channel and also on my community where you won't be judged."
During his time on MAFS, Georges got married to Peggy Rose, with the couple quickly hitting it off on their wedding day.
Despite Peggy sharing her disapproval of her groom's hobbies and Georges voicing concern about their lack of intimacy, the pair decided to stay together after the final vows.

However, they announced their split three months later, with the pair sharing how "heartbroken" they felt on social media.
"It's affected my mental health and it's taken me weeks to come to terms with it. But with it being Valentine's Day, I can't pretend to be okay," Peggy previously wrote on her Instagram Stories.
"Thank you to everyone who has supported us on our journey... nobody is more upset about it than me."
Peggy has since confirmed she is dating someone else, with the new couple making their relationship public at a recent awards event.
