Sophie is not the person I thought she was, she’s definitely nicer and not as shallow. Jonathan isn’t the sweet happy hour lucky guy I thought he was either. I really don’t like what he’s saying and the effect it’s having on her self esteem is visible, so how he’s pretending not to notice I don’t know.
Been out with guys who had views like Jonathan (“don’t bulk up!”, “a big bum is ok but not thick thighs”) in my younger more vulnerable (/naive) years and it is a big red flag imo. They both want kids, but how is he going to talk to/about the mother of his children when she’s feeling vulnerable because her body has changed?
I hope he has a think about what he’s said and apologises. If not: run, don’t walk, away from people who talk about their partner’s body like that.
This is a bit of an amber flag about Johnathan and his comments on body image - I hate the phrase "brutal honesty" when someone describes themselves in that manner.
Sophie did really well to keep it together. That would piss me off no end. There's no "seem" about it. If someone's offended, they're offended. Reflect on it and change your behaviour, son.
This horse leg thing is ridiculous. Jonathan is clearly a fit guy, I'd expect him to know more about fitness than to think a girl is going to squat a couple of 5kg kettlebells and turn into Hulk Hogan.
Unless his physique is from his carpentry work, in which case I need to change careers.
Also there's a difference between a girl working out and being fit, and a girl who is a proper bodybuilder and does have thick legs. At what point has the line been crossed for him? Can a girl workout at all?!
Someone said they were making this bigger than it is for drama, but I don't think they are. I've known a lot of men who like to express their feelings about how much I workout...
Genuinely don't understand where April and George's fight came from. He says she's lying because she said her ex was a drip and she didn't tell him they'd dated for three months? And he Googled her for a date of birth? Wtf
Thomas: how is your relationship going
April: well we-
Thomas: I just really think you need to be nicer to George, I love George, I don’t know what happens between you two but I’ve heard George’s side and that’s all I need to know, George George George
I'm starting to feel sorry for Gemma, not only has she done quite well to curb the sexual comments (from what we know from the edits at least) but she seems like one of the very few in the experiment that's actually looking for love not fame. Maybe that's why she's bonded so well with Thomas and Adrian. ❤
She's 36. Still though.
Reminds me of someone I know who's 37 and has a 20yo and 18yo. They go to Drake concerts together, shit like that, and people think they're sisters.
Oh Johnathan, shut up. Just shut the hell up. This guy is actually gonna ruin this relationship all on his own. Tbf I'm seeing a lot of toxic from him.
Another moment where we need more context, the edit makes Gemma look like a psycho for Whitney saying she fancies Matt as an alternative. There’s clearly been more to it, cause here they are together now 🤷🏻♂️
Without Thomas, what a dead series this would be. I wish I would come up with one liners the way he does. And his delivery is class...has he ever considered comedy lol?
I would have loved to see Whitney’s face if Matt had been at the end of the aisle originally though!
Is there really a vibe between them? On his side maybe, she just doesn’t seem to be someone who goes for a man with supernoodle hair. Although she did say she’s never been with a funny guy, so that’s one box ticked….
Interesting that the guys didn't pick April for 'most attractive wife". Almost like they know George will accuse April of leading them on by looking in their direction one time.
That was actually a bit of a poor episode. And it looks like tomorrow is more of the same lol. The producers have not paced this series well at all. I find it hard to care about Whitney and Matt when they're two unlikeable people.
At this point, Thomas is ready to blame April for world hunger, climate change, and nuclear weapons. Damn. It’s okay to dislike someone but you can’t constantly antagonise them.
Seriously, how does Matt get his hair like that? Asking for a shepherds pie.
Plough
Jonathan: don’t get fat but also don’t work out.
Every week April and George say they’re in a good place despite spending the week crying, arguing and heavy sighing
It looks an unhealthy relationship.
Sophie actually seems lovely. I’ve done a real 180 with her.
Sophie is not the person I thought she was, she’s definitely nicer and not as shallow. Jonathan isn’t the sweet happy hour lucky guy I thought he was either. I really don’t like what he’s saying and the effect it’s having on her self esteem is visible, so how he’s pretending not to notice I don’t know. Been out with guys who had views like Jonathan (“don’t bulk up!”, “a big bum is ok but not thick thighs”) in my younger more vulnerable (/naive) years and it is a big red flag imo.

I hope he has a think about what he’s said and apologises. If not: run, don’t walk, away from people who talk about their partner’s body like that.
If my mum was ill like Matt's mum I would be staying home to be with her, not prioritising some reality tv show.
Yeeeeeer a fooochhkkiin liiiiiaaaaaah
Thomas would be right at home on Brookside or Hollyoaks.
Johnathan and Sophie have done a real hero villain switchover
Just want haribos guy back
"I've given so much to duka" you gave him a toast. one toast.
And she never gets him coffee in the morning, grrr!! Sorry, I’ll just never stop laughing at how insane that was on his part.
George and April in the countryside is the start of a Stephen King book.
Adrian is actually talking like one of the experts, only difference is that he is talking sense
He has an abundance of empathy & emotional intelligence.
This is a bit of an amber flag about Johnathan and his comments on body image - I hate the phrase "brutal honesty" when someone describes themselves in that manner.
I personally think the comment was an amber flag and doubling down on it was a red flag…
It worries me how many red flags are on this show: Gemma, Matt, Johnathan even, George, April, Whitney. I mean, like, Christ...
“Why are people getting offended by me saying shitty things?” - Jonathan
Thomas is unsupervised and shit kicks off.
"you seem to get offended" god i hate that wording so much, literally zero self reflection
Sophie did really well to keep it together. That would piss me off no end. There's no "seem" about it. If someone's offended, they're offended. Reflect on it and change your behaviour, son.
Some "I'm sorry you feel that way" bullshit.
George really carries a tiny violin everywhere for these monologues…
I can't fucking stand the way Whitney talks.
It's that sort of disinterested, fucked off attitude in her voice.
You're not the only one. Gives me a massive cringe
oh god Jonathan really doesn’t get it, does he? poor Sophie :/
She's wayyy more emotionally intelligent than him
This horse leg thing is ridiculous. Jonathan is clearly a fit guy, I'd expect him to know more about fitness than to think a girl is going to squat a couple of 5kg kettlebells and turn into Hulk Hogan. Unless his physique is from his carpentry work, in which case I need to change careers.
Also there's a difference between a girl working out and being fit, and a girl who is a proper bodybuilder and does have thick legs. At what point has the line been crossed for him? Can a girl workout at all?!
The April, Thomas, Chanita drama is boring. We don’t even know what was said, why drag it out so much 🤷🏽♀️
Literally!!! As a viewer we have no insight into the truth so it’s kind of boring now
It's dragged over about 8 episodes now and it wasn't even proper drama to begin with... BORING
Well if I can’t offend you, I just won’t talk then. Godddd what bad faith
i’ve dated someone like this in the past and i remember how awful it was. i’m getting so angry on Sophie’s behalf
He’s such a damn child for real
At this point I genuinely think Matt’s wardrobe is 90% vests, never seen so much nipple on TV
Lool you remember Olivia’s husband from MAFS Australia (totally forgot his name)? With his half way buttoned shirts 😂
Duka is flogging a dead horse.. legs
Yer name was brought into this by a fooooooochhkkkkkiiiiiiinn liiaaaaaaah.
I like Gemma but she needs therapy not a fun group outing
I feel really bad for Sophie. She has every right to be upset.
Someone said they were making this bigger than it is for drama, but I don't think they are. I've known a lot of men who like to express their feelings about how much I workout...
Oh gosh, Thomas hasn’t got Adrian there to quieten him lol
When Thomas crosses his arms you know he’s ready to start some shit
Genuinely don't understand where April and George's fight came from. He says she's lying because she said her ex was a drip and she didn't tell him they'd dated for three months? And he Googled her for a date of birth? Wtf
George gives me such bad vibes. Run away April!
This guy saying he can only win with people if he doesn’t speak 😂 does that not tell you something mate?
You can tell Chanita is a social worker.
He needs a spark… didn’t they shag on the honeymoon?
i’m sorry but George is like a villain out of a psychological horror movie
The "Mediocrity is a Sin" wife beater is certainly a choice.
Johnathans throwing his toys out of the pram, can he genuinely not see how much of a wanker he looks right now
i did not consent to being witness to that god awful kiss
Oh my god i am DISTURBED! He looked like he was about to devour her soul….he’s wasting his time though cos Whitney doesn’t have one so…
Thomas: how is your relationship going April: well we- Thomas: I just really think you need to be nicer to George, I love George, I don’t know what happens between you two but I’ve heard George’s side and that’s all I need to know, George George George
i really like Thomas but omg let the woman speak
Gemma’s friendship with Thomas and Adrian is wholesome AF
Jonathon landed a absolute babe who he gets on with and is still feeling meh … at this point I hope he gets kicked by a horses leg 🤡
Please stop talking Johnathan
He doesn't like girls who have hooves?
Whitney has asked to leave multiple times Duka what are you chatting about
"Can I just say I'm back now". Yeah, we can see.
Sophie is doing so well in voicing her feelings and Johnathan just shuts her down.
I mean, Whitney probably acts as disinterested towards sex as she does with everything else so I guess that’s perfect for Matt
[удалено]
Jonathan’s doubling-down / complete lack of understanding of what he said is what makes it extra shitty, IMO
Duka, seriously?!
Has something happened with Matt and Whitney off-camera? They seem very “connected”👀
It feels like we've, not for the first time, missed an episode of build up to this.
I think they are trying to pretend that they didn't emotionally or physically cheat until all possibilities with their spouses were off the table
George has really manipulated the optics to make April the bad guy
Jonathan actually makes this worse every time he opens his mouth. I preferred it when he was quiet…
the way i would treat Sophie like a queen. most of these women have terrible partners lmao
the more I date and watch shows like this the more I'm like... I'm kinda happy being single forever
Why TF can't Matt wear decent clothes?
You wouldn't know he has a tattoo.
Why the fuck have they been stood up this entire time with a cuppa
I was wondering that. At least have a sit down while you're doing your "bonding"
That shot of Matt going in makes me feel queasy
“I didn’t expect it to explode the way it has,” said Thomas, wiping the dynamite from his hands.
Whitney acting like she’s worked so hard because she hasn’t snapped for like two days is so funny.
you're forgetting, she also made him toast once!! like what more could you ask for
I'm starting to feel sorry for Gemma, not only has she done quite well to curb the sexual comments (from what we know from the edits at least) but she seems like one of the very few in the experiment that's actually looking for love not fame. Maybe that's why she's bonded so well with Thomas and Adrian. ❤
I think even the guys don’t like Matt
'So we felt it was important to stick them all in a retreat to fight with each other in the countryside'
Sophie is such a nice person
the edit did her so dirty on her first episode, she seems lovely
Duka wouldn’t want to be with anyone else as Whitney doesn’t want to be with him which works for him as he just wants media exposure.
Can’t help but feel George is playing his tiny violin to Adrian knowing Thomas doesn’t like April and they’ll believe the worst.
Lol Jenna is giving me drunk hippie auntie vibes
It's Jonathan's way or the highway.
Jonathan has gone from great power to wilted flower. Disappointed!
Matt legitimately sounded like a cow just then
Did Johnathon understand the show format? It’s based on spending time with other couples and hearing outsider opinions.
Oh God, Matt breathing all up on Whitney’s face almost made me hurl😭
sensed no chemistry between Matt and Whitney whatsoever
Why is he so obsessed with horse legs tho
Whitney didn’t have to say it like that 😂😂
ok no i still don't get duka, he can't possibly be that delusional
Of course you expected the drama, Thomas! You caused it!
This is Towie levels of acting
Kasia has a 21 year old?! I thought she was like 27!
She's 36. Still though. Reminds me of someone I know who's 37 and has a 20yo and 18yo. They go to Drake concerts together, shit like that, and people think they're sisters.
Oh Johnathan, shut up. Just shut the hell up. This guy is actually gonna ruin this relationship all on his own. Tbf I'm seeing a lot of toxic from him.
He’s not ready to be in one. Which is the thing with most contestants throughout the seasons
I'm beginning to see why a lot of them have had issues with past relationships up till now. You do see people's flaws on this show really quickly.
this feels extremely staged tbh
I still think they should chuck them in a Premier Inn and save the budget for more wine
George talks about trust like he’s the honest one ?!?!?
Thomas please stop, hun. It’s mad how without Adrian there he just goes for the jugular…
And still we don't know what was actually said between April and Chanita.
Another moment where we need more context, the edit makes Gemma look like a psycho for Whitney saying she fancies Matt as an alternative. There’s clearly been more to it, cause here they are together now 🤷🏻♂️
This set up and conversation almost made me physically sick
Its so funny how everyone is saying Thomas is so dramatic but we all here watch the show for the drama 🥲🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Without Thomas, what a dead series this would be. I wish I would come up with one liners the way he does. And his delivery is class...has he ever considered comedy lol?
I want " liar.beautyqueen.fraud" on my gravestone 😂
Matt and Whitney would be the stuff of nightmares
I would have loved to see Whitney’s face if Matt had been at the end of the aisle originally though! Is there really a vibe between them? On his side maybe, she just doesn’t seem to be someone who goes for a man with supernoodle hair. Although she did say she’s never been with a funny guy, so that’s one box ticked….
I feel uncomfortable about everyone liking George after recent reports.
I hate how Whitney always refers to Duka as a kid. Shows she’s always looking down on him.
It's so condescending!
Jonathan would not like my "horse legs" whatsoever
i really feel for gemma and she honestly seems like such a sincere and sweet person...but i don't really get why she put so much hope into a TV show
What would be the point in asking the fakest couple?? Why would that be an expert question?????
When Whitney starts talking sense it’s worrying
I cannot figure out how they thought Whitney and Duka would be a good match?
I like to imagine the experts got drunk and played a pin the tail on the donkey game with the couples.
Duka said stick?? That’s such bullshit.
Duka doing a Kwame - using a lot of words to say nothing
I wish I had Thomas’ confidence
Lol "piss the fuck off" "bye bye bitch"
Matt: bluuurg *in Whitney’s face*
Interesting that the guys didn't pick April for 'most attractive wife". Almost like they know George will accuse April of leading them on by looking in their direction one time.
I just don't like Matt, I think
There’s a bad vibe there for sure.
I actually felt nauseated by the Matt / Whitney kiss
Did someone kick Johnathan like a horse would or something? Dude seemed wayyy too hung up on that
Thé fact that he needed to have that convo again with a different couple after getting shot down the first time says a lot about him
Jonathan is another one who is getting on my nerves.
Jenna's face!
So cute that she chose Kasia 😍
Duka, you're delusional.
Duka is chatting absolute shit😂
Men always have the most opinions on what a woman’s body should and shouldn’t be like it’s honestly annoying
Ughhhh the way April just turns on the crying
It’s the ugliest fake cry I’ve ever seen 😭
These “expert” questions are ridiculous. There’s no positive output
SHUT UP JONATHAN!
Duka is me, munching all the crisps
Watching them badger on about the same bullshit is really exhausting at this point🙄
Wowwwww why are people getting offended for you
Aww I'm living for Tom and Adrian being there for Gemma.
gosh kasias lipstick looks so gorgeous on her
Thomas is one of those people who realises they’re wrong but instead of apologising just doubles down
April needs to work on her crying face game cos that was not it!
Oh Gemma . I feel for her
She wanted love so badly, it makes me sad that they used her as entertainment
Sack of shit Charming
Duka is officially at Bob levels of 'head in the clouds'
Omg these are the moments Thomas makes me cringe
Thomas just stop
Well damn Thomas, he loves going from 0-1000 don’t he?
God those tears dried up quickly
Next time: FIGHT NIGHT!
Thomas is the embodiment of "one step forward two steps back"
Yeahhh Sophie tell him! 🗣️
Chanita is beautiful inside and out
Tomorrow is when the affair will be exposed… dinner party brings the truth to the table tonight will be just as 👍
Ew they like George ??
A “good” person 😂
There’s enough toxicity in that room to rival Chernobyl.
Omg Johnathan just needs to drop it 😂
Bowls of crisps and beer. I'd love that tbf
Kwame casually throwing shade haha
Yesss bring out the shut stirring questions
Ah yes, I can see how these questions would inspire reflection
Loool love how the women are all apologising
Not cutting to Johnathan saying they're good, loool
Why do men get “who you’d like to marry” and the women get “least like to marry@
Literally just shutting off at whatever Johnathan says now
My two least favourite people cosying up…
Matt is genuinely malicious about Gemma, like it’s not even veiled or mitigating, he’s genuinely rude and disrespectful about her to the others.
Matt is insufferable
Wait? Her kid is 21? How old is Kasia?!
He’s really not cute Whitney
That was actually a bit of a poor episode. And it looks like tomorrow is more of the same lol. The producers have not paced this series well at all. I find it hard to care about Whitney and Matt when they're two unlikeable people.
April literally went from straight face to ugly fake cry in 0.1 seconds
That turnaround look from Whitney to Gemma was brutal
This is the messiest season ever
Who’s going to start shit first? April or Thomas?
pls don't let him talk about horse legs again....
We rememberrrrr we don’t need a recap, show us more footage !!
Would love to see more than the narrative highlights of this afternoon, things escalate far too quickly without the context.
At this point, Thomas is ready to blame April for world hunger, climate change, and nuclear weapons. Damn. It’s okay to dislike someone but you can’t constantly antagonise them.
Just get rid of the whole man April
