MAFS #13 NO SPOILERS! Pussy galore made Keye run from his amore. Cat cafes breaking up couples, leaving greige people in their greige houses. Reiss loves castles and pyramids too, Steven needs a tomb for his Hinge profile too.

[dillite]

The end is near, just behind the cat cafe.

Wow... He sounds deranged.
No wonder April thought it was a good idea to date him after the show. Two villains.

I haven’t watched last nights episode yet but I was reading comments on social media and amazingly a lot of people are still defending Ash. And they were angry that he had been called or made out to be a bully? It seemed like only a minority were calling him out on instagram.

I’ve just read the article and if he’s saying the bathroom thing happened once and Grace is saying it happened multiple times I’m going to go with what she says!

As I said earlier there’s probably a reason this apparently charming, personable man couldn’t make it work with his young kids mother or his ex- fiance.

The truth is I don’t think he ever really liked Grace much beyond the physical and was more wrapped up in getting sex and maintaining his image to the others/the public.

I’m glad she’s out of this now and hope this doesn’t leave her with long term issues and she doesn’t feel too violated. I had an ex do something similar when I was in the shower once back in my 20s, it was very unpleasant.

I saw Graces post about the production company sanitising things, it’s interesting they haven’t posted a clip of her and Ash from last night on the MAFS insta page. Either they will do it today or they’re protecting Ash from what I hope is a change in viewers opinion towards him and Grace due to bathroom gate.

Why didn’t anyone call out Ash’s behaviour around the bathroom as predatory. It’s not fun, the doors locked for a reason.

Also Abi I feel is so fake, I’m not sure who can declare the rest of their lives after 7 weeks. This whole season has been peppered with toxic people, it’s not a show about love and perhaps with clever editing it doesn’t appear the experts really hold those who show such traits accountable.

@Mafsisback

i dont think Ash has young kids?

I thought it was shocking behaviour. Even if Grace had just gone in for a good cry she is entitled to privacy. It does suggest quite a nasty streak and disrespect of her boundaries, whether we would agree with them or not.

Wow. That's chaged my view on Grace & Ash. I liked her but thought she complained too much.
She didn't complain enough!
This show doesn't meet its duty of care to the cast.

And that is probably why we haven't seen half of what he was up to, because they know that if they show they were complicit they'd get more ofcom complaints and legal rebuke for lack of care.

What age did you think his kid was? From I understand his child is around two. So yeah definitely very young and tbh I’d class anyone under 10ish as a young kid so even if he’s slightly older than that still young.

Under 2 apparently, to his 2nd fiancee https://thetab.com/2025/11/05/everyone-forgot-ashley-is-a-dad-so-heres-a-look-at-his-wholesome-life-outside-mafs-uk#:~:text=Ashley%20has%20a%20young%20son,the%20mother%20of%20his%20child.

You can really see how hard he has worked on his image there! "He seems like one of the most innocent ones on MAFS UK this year"

Hahahaha, famous last words.

There is nothing worse than feeling manipulated into having sex.
John made a good effort. Rhy's theme park, no way, dressed like a 13 year old lad.
Leisha deserves better, than his minimum efforts.

Really weird behaviour. Even for a partner of 20 odd years, who’s seen you give birth. If you go to the bathroom and lock the door, they’d respect your privacy, unless they’re worried about you. And certainly wouldn’t say whatever he said: something like being an engineer he’ll always find a way to open the lock!

He’s the type that brushes off predatory, sexist, entitled, patriarchal, handsy behaviour as ‘a bit of fun’, a compliment or some sort of foreplay. He’s described in summaries as an ‘old school gent’. Seems code for Benny Hill vibes.

The ‘Tomboy Barbie’ comment would’ve done it for me.

Yeah very young!

Exactly! It’s a horrible feeling.

Haven’t watched yet but I saw a clip from that theme park and yeah I did think - poor Leisha! Unless I’m missing something and that’s the kind of date she wanted.

I am confused by this bathroom door thing - it’s just such a weird and inexplicable thing to do. I can see why a violent attacker might break down a door but picking a lock “for a joke” just isn’t funny.

Having said that, if you have a strong relationship otherwise, it’s the sort of thing you can sternly say ‘Not Ok, Not Funny’ partner says sorry and is suitably sheepish, and never does it again.
They clearly have a totally dysfunctional relationship in every way where neither party has been comfortable or able to be their true self and they are both acting out their extremes.
Also, this is MAFS series 10 - we all know how it works - if anyone is really squeamish about talking about “intimacy” outside the bedroom then it is probably not what they should audition for…

Davide and Keye. ❤️
Abi is a lovely person underneath the crazy smile.
Nail biting for Grace, Ash is disgraceful, no respect for personal boundaries. The bathroom door is weird. DH would never do this, privacy, he's a weirdo.

That's their future child. 😅😁

There was a brief moment [I think when discussing the swops]...when Ash's mask slipped and pulled a quick horrible grin - couldn't help himself as I think he briefly remembered some misdoing - then so quickly checked himself.

He then reverted to the innocent, loveable chap with the crazy wife and the woe-is-me expression. She 'doesn't know who he is' [repeat 100 times]....well we do, and who would want to.

He did what ??

i haven’t seen last nights episode yet so I’ve not heard this

that’s a step too far - bathrooms are private

Tomboy Barbie describes April to a tee...

Im feeling smug I was always team Grace now 🤣

I saw that <shudder>

Imagine having to live in an apartment with a strange man where the only privacy you get is in the bathroom and then he picks the lock? The ixpirts should have given him a proper bollocking but instead Paul said I’ve done all those things too. WTF?!

i think he meant that level
of intimacy (bathroom door open/unlicked) but added that was only after 23 years of marriage.

I was focussing on Paul has a wife?

Oh my goodness. The ash and Grace chats were an eye opener. I did think we were probably not getting all the details. And I did like Grace and wonder if she was being edited to be cast a certain way.

but omg! Opening the toilet lock and trying to justify it as ever ok is absolutely shocking !
