AN RAF airman who went Awol to appear on TV’s Married at First Sight was jailed when he came back.

Alex Henry abandoned his post at an electronic warfare base to try to find love and fame on Channel 4’s dating show.

He was seized by military police when he returned and was sentenced to 34 days in a military prison.

Henry, 28, served 24 days before being sacked.

The Air Specialist asked his commander at RAF Spadeadam, Cumbria, for extra leave last winter to take part in the TV show.

It was refused but Henry, of Birmingham, went anyway.

Henry’s spokesman said: “He returned after filming of his own volition and handed himself into the military authorities.

“He was sentenced to 34 days in a military prison and served 24 as a model inmate.”

We revealed this month how Henry was accused of abuse after C4 shared his promo reel, with one woman branding him a “dangerous individual”.

The RAF said it could not comment.
