Sharon Underwood, the owner of Love Me Do Brides in Kingston-upon-Thames, is suing her landlords over repeated water leaks that she says caused extensive damage to her business. Underwood, 57, who has previously appeared on reality TV shows including Married At First Sight and Don’t Tell the Bride, alleges that water repeatedly entered the premises and left the shop in disrepair.

According to reports, Underwood is seeking £500,000 in damages. She also says the impact of the leaking and the harm to her shop contributed to problems in her personal life, describing a breakdown of her own marriage. The dispute centers on Underwood’s allegations about the condition of the property and the effect the leaks had on her stock and operations. The reporting does not include details on the landlords’ response or any court proceedings to date.
