Rebecca asked him to explain what he meant and he continued: "It started at the exact same time as I was seeing this girl."

He then added that it had also happened with another girlfriend.

She then asked: "What do your girlfriends dress in?" and he told her that he was actually talking about condoms.

There was an awkward silence and the pair continued their date before Freddie said: "Could you turn your head to the side. Like all the way".

Rebecca did as he asked and then he proclaimed that he "liked a hairclip" and wanted to see hers.

Viewers at home were left squirming on their sofas during the awkward date.

One viewer wrote: "'Wonder what I should chat about when we are eating dinner, oh I know, condoms, I will definitely win her over with my latex allergy'. This level of cringe is why I watch #firstdates".

Another said: "Is he actually talking about being allergic to condoms on a first date? @FirstDates #FirstDates".

Meanwhile, others were concerned about his love of hairclips.

One fan added: "What’s with the fetish hair clip thing? Don’t understand. #FirstDates".
