Alright. All gloves are off. Claws are out. Finger clapping at the ready.

Yes, me too. I think she has really invested in Ash and tried to change a lot and let him in. I don't think he has done as much, just waved the book about and checked himself a few times. Him clearly eyeing up April and making that Grace's fault again (I can't get my wife to laugh but I can get April to laugh) shows he just wants to be fawned over and she's not going to do that for his rather lame predictable "jokes".

I hope she gets herself a nice Doctor or someone with a thoughtful side, an intellectual would suit her well I think. I think she does mental health side of maternity so she clearly is more thoughtful and respectful of women and their experience, so she needs someone who understands that.

This is my unpopular opinion too. Grace and Ash are not on the same level in terms of intellect. I don't think the experts ever bring that up but surely it is a crucial bit of whether you match with someone else. Ash is just a bit surface level with shit jokes. I can't bear April either. She's a bit rough and is all about the 'bants' with nothing interesting behind it. I am sure her and aash would be great together.

Omg remember Jacqui and Clint. So bad, it’s like they were invented for reality Tv.

They were magnificent, in a fucked up way.

I'm with you on that, never warmed to April. Don't actively dislike her but I can still imagine her being trans too, no I don't want to start that all again, but it's because of the high femme, giggling silly stuff. She is exactly what Ash wants in that regard, very "showy" but drinky, so good for Rugger Bugger mates. Edited terrible Fraudian slip!

Oh jacqui.

Julia-Ruth WISHES she could be even half the drama of jacqui.

she was phenomenal. I wonder if she’s still with that guy who had the big house?
in my head I picture them in a photoshoot , both dressed in white and posing with a tiger, either a dead tiger or one they’ve got in captivity.
she’d still have terribly applied self tan

hopefully the tiger's eaten them both and rewilded itself.

Him and Alice are gonna bang I think

They'd actually make a good couple I think, similar sense of humour.

Denim4ever · 23/10/2025 18:15

Divani can't seem to find the language to express how he feels or is - as was said up thread - in it for the fame.

My fave quote from him in the last episode was the profoundly unemotional response to going to sleep in another room: 'It's a recurrin init'

Would love to see a mash up vid with Nessa: 'What's occurin?'
Divani: 'It's a recurrin init.'

NB Julia Ruth also in it for fame..

Nessa would chew little Div up and spit him out in seconds!

Indeed and she'd have creative differences because his lyrics didn't have enough insight 🤣

Just catching up with last night's..what on earth was Joe thinking ?! Why go all in and even mention the L word? What a ridiculous man. It's was blatantly obvious he was disappointed from the start. Feel sorry for Maeve.

Elle771 · 23/10/2025 20:06

Finally found my people!!!!

Just catching up

AtlasPine · 23/10/2025 20:26

Sarah - I find that producer a bit fit.

Ixperts - disgusting behaviour showing huge disrespect to your husband.

later…

ixperts (to the women) - who do you find most attractive out of the husbands?

The hypocrisy!!

Dean would have peed in his pants and white knuckled every chair in the room had he known THAT was on the cards. Sacre Bleu! The DISRESPECT!

For goodness sake, we are on page 19 of another thread and you are STILL going on about my comment? Let it lie ffs.

If it makes you happy I will tell my nephews when they go on about being black that according to some anonymous random people on Mumsnet, they aren't as they have a white father.

Happy now???

Just agreeing with a comment that's all. What a weird over reaction.

LeanToWhatToDo · 23/10/2025 21:25

Wait, is it on tonight? I've just had a panic and seen the time - I assume not as no posts on here?!

SyrupofFigs · 23/10/2025 22:22

"This is my unpopular opinion...Grace and Ash are not on the same level in terms of intellect."

See, I disagree with this- I think it's a class thing.
Ash is perfectly astute but he's not from an educated MC background.
Grace is articulate but she's incredibly posh- as are her friends- they all subscribe to the leftist ideologies that are de rigueur in these circles.
Ash is from a business background- much less likely to be around these "correct- thinking" people.
You see it on here all the time (Mumsnet being an overwhelmingly MC site)- this assumption that left wing is the only way the good people think.

SyrupofFigs · 23/10/2025 22:26

But I agree that G and A are probably therefore an unsuitable pairing.
I think April's quite posh but she's way more down to earth than Grace, so might complement Ash. Suspect she's a bit more robust country girl than metropolitan idealist.

StaySpicy · 23/10/2025 22:53

Do you think MAFS did itself a disservice with the wife-swap in 2023 (Ella coming back with someone else)? It's like half the contestants think they'll be able to come back again with the match of their choice.

Just came on here to ask the same thing. Been out and was trying to catch up but doesn’t appear to have been one tonight

Appalonia · 23/10/2025 23:27

I hope they pair April and Ash together in the couple swap test, I think they'd get on so well, and I find it so uncomfortable watching couples try to make it work when they're so patently ill suited.

mcmuffin22 · 24/10/2025 10:10

In every series of MAFS there is someone who gets a serielous case of cold feet. It is usually those who claim they're a perfect match early doors. Then it all goes to shit.

Garamousalata · 24/10/2025 10:24

Jacqui is my fav MAFS person ever. She was so entertaining, unlike most of this lot. I’m sick of fake JR, fiddling with her hair and nails. Please leave.

I'm sure the Oz one did it way before then.

I really liked Cyrelle and the dodgy guy with the little blonde one possibly on the same series.

loveawineloveacrisp · 24/10/2025 13:40

I feel like it's turning into Love Island. So many buzzwords and phrases being used. 'pull for a chat', 'muggy' etc etc.

EmeraldShamrock000 · 23/10/2025 13:05

April and Ash have a undeniable spark.
Grace is aware of the spark. Drama will follow.

Let's hope so.
This series is so lacking in real drama.
I have just caught up with the episode and thread. As usual, thread was WAY more entertaining. I managed to follow the episode while doing various other things!
I laughed at Div saying 'I feel like I've been hit by a ton of bricks. Heavy, you know.' (or something). I also liked his shirt with flowers on.

Spookyaf · 24/10/2025 17:00

I’m very late to join and I’ve only just caught up today.

They are all very boring this year and I can’t even remember half of their names.

Why is Nelly so down on herself? It’s painful to watch. I want to shake her, she’s an attractive professional woman.

Don’t like April at all and I’m sure she’s trans.

I actually like Grace, she does come across a bit hard work, but I think Ash is an annoying clown and not very smart.

Steven is a creep.

Julie-Ruth is getting way more of a hard time than she deserves imo, just to create some drama.

Is it just me or do the shiny filler/botox faces just look ridiculous and aging?
