Yes! Thank you!

Sharon .... 👍😄

Naughty step for you

Do counsellors need some degree of empathy? They certainly need to listen

opencecilgee · 25/09/2025 08:02

Leigh’s insta is all close up pics of herself posing

Imagine Crystal as your counsellor / therapist.

’Which one of these crystals most reflects your thoughts / trauma / ex husband?’

If she’s on the show to drum up business, it may have backfired. Although no doubt she’ll get a stream of men who think they can turn a lesbian.

<Crystal sits surrounded by crystals>
"Right, so I think you've got a bad energy. When you walked in I just sensed it. Sit. Have this Rose Quartz and look, at ME you idiot.! Yeah, see, you're vibe is all wrong. You're a lost cause. Gimme that Quartz back. Off you fuck."

Kibble19 · 25/09/2025 09:51

Oh my goddd, Leigh is insufferable. I know the edit is to be considered, but she’s a living nightmare. Whiny, overly sensitive, princess attitude, scared of everything.

Fair play to Leah for having the energy to continue through the honeymoon. I’d be away home.

CherryPencil · 25/09/2025 10:09

I’m enjoying Grace and Ashley now. His patience and kindness is lovely.

CherryPencil · 25/09/2025 10:12

Leigh is ridiculous. What exactly does she like doing beyond playing with her crystals?

Maybe botox Leah/Leigh/Lee whatever was planning to throw her from the cable car?
Have we ever seen a less compatible couple?

They're definitely somewhere near the bottom of the compatibility rankings. IMHO there's no point putting two abrasive people together, it generates completely the wrong kind of spark.

Having said that, I don't think Leah is anywhere near as abrasive as Leigh who seems the personification of resting bitch face and plain rude. I think whatever she's experienced in the past is playing very heavily into who she is now, and I can't see Leah being willing to put up with it for very long.

Joe didn't even see the horse 🤣

Yeah, what was even the point of that? 😄

Are the two lesbians from the other previous series still together? Can’t remember either of their names but one was blonde and a vegetarian (or vegan) and the other was a meat lover.

yes, I think so - wasn't one called Zoe & was a huge meat eater & a long haired girly girl who was vegan?

QueSyrahSyrah · 25/09/2025 12:58

Frantically trying to catch up on both the show and the thread! Thoughts so far, Sarah and Dean are going nowhere. Grace needs to stop banging the drum for feminism FFS. ‘I respect that you didn’t shag on the first night’ ‘Yes but what if I DID’ Fucking hell Woman, you’re on the verge of gaslighting the bloke. He can be from a traditional family without insisting you’re chained barefoot and pregnant to the cooker.

NervyWegovy · 25/09/2025 13:27

Hey I’m catching up with the show (episode 2) but can’t find the first thread can someone link me it please.

ive scrolled down on telly addicts and searched married at first sight uk and mafsuk and it didn’t come up

NervyWegovy · 25/09/2025 13:51

Found it!

QueSyrahSyrah · 25/09/2025 14:56

‘Maeve is a different person when she’s drunk but she’s lovely when she wakes up and so you just have to forget about it’

Well that sounds totally healthy and not at all problematic. What a perfect candidate for this show!

Yep. There seems to be no room for nuance or context with her.

mxd · 25/09/2025 15:10

Wow tomorrow nights looks even worse than the current lot.

QueSyrahSyrah · 25/09/2025 15:16

I’m on Crystal & the other chicks’ honeymoon now. Christ the victim mentality is strong with this one. It’s her whole personality. That and being totes spiritual obvs.

Littletinytarzanswingingfromanosehair · 25/09/2025 15:56

Teaming a couple where one has had alcohol issues and has worked hard at rebuilding their life then the other half clearly very much into the booze and admits they are argumentive after a drink. Absolute ridiculous. All for views and it's not fair on Joe, alcohol issues are no joke. The counsellors saying he could calm her is ridiculous.

FirstCuppa · 25/09/2025 16:12

This is where the show always crosses the line by treating one of the partners as a therapist for the other for serious issues. In these cases it can literally destroy someone being thrown back into a lifestyle where they've fought addiction.

mumofoneAloneandwell · 25/09/2025 16:25

Crystal is exhausting, the other one deserves a medal, honestly, for putting up with her

Devani and Ruth are so cute - hope they make it

I have fully warmed to grace and Ashley now. Thank goodness grace did a 180

The woman who wants an alpha - she has not found it 😭😭😭

Edit, just saw the clip of divani and Ruth's honeymoon 🥺🥺

Mafstonight · 25/09/2025 16:58

Wow the lip liner. Looks like when my kids eat a magnum by shoving the whole thing into their mouths.

Loved Grace explaining her issues with touch. Would agree with those suggesting a neurodiversity.

LIZS · 25/09/2025 17:12

Wasn’t Crystaleigh the one who wanted someone who could take the lead and a bit of a masculine role? Leah doesn’t stand a chance to show any such traits while she moans and mouths off . She didn’t like it even when Leah had arranged an activity.

EachandEveryone · 25/09/2025 17:17

i can’t beleive I’m here on this thread! It’s like I’ve nothing better to do 😀 I’m fully in now. I’m not keen on Amy of them appart from divarni and the double barrelled name.
