One week into the experiment, and it was time for all the Married At First Sight UK couples to gather together at the first dinner party. The experts watched on, but they weren’t impressed with the way bride Sarah was speaking about her husband Dean.
Tonight, the experts were watching from afar, but in a teaser trailer for the E4 show tomorrow night, Sarah was seen breaking down in tears as the experts ‘confront’ her over her ‘disrespectful’ comments.
Many couples felt they had met their match after returning home from their honeymoon, but others weren’t as impressed. Sarah and Dean were the first couple to wed during the debut episode. Although Dean was left ‘buzzing’ with his new bride, Sarah’s feelings weren’t mutual.

Tonight, Sarah wasted no time in telling the fellow participants that she wasn’t attracted to her husband, while Dean was telling others the pair were getting on, despite there being no sexual chemistry.
The pair walked in holding hands, with experts Paul C Brunson, Mel Schilling and Charlene Douglas having positive expectations for the couple, however things took a turn.
As Nelly asked how things were going with Dean, Sarah replied: “Obviously he is lovely, but I was disappointed,” leaving the experts shocked.
“He’s super high energy, it gets annoying and I sort of need space,” she continued.
As more people arrived, Sarah made it abundantly clear that Dean wasn’t her usual type and the attraction just wasn’t there.
Sarah then told the girls that she had the “ick” from Dean, as expert Mel said: “It’s starting to feel like Sarah is mocking Dean. This is getting really frustrating to watch.

Charlene added: “It’s the way that Sarah is going about it that is feeling so disrespectful.”
“Telling everyone about all the issues that Dean has, that’s a sign of immaturity. Someone has no clue about what it is that they need in life.”
Sarah then told the group that Dean calls himself “the funny fat kid” before saying: “He ain’t a bad boy, he’s like a care bear!”
Mel was left unimpressed with the comments adding: “That’s not a very hot thing to say about your partner. A lot of what she’s showing when she talks about Dean is disgust.”
Later, the honesty box made a return, as Sarah was asked what the hardest part of the experience has been for her, which she said was “the intensity”.
Expert Charlene said her comments were “humiliating” for Dean, as Sarah had already gone around telling everyone that she wasn’t attracted to him.
“What we need is honesty,” she said, as Mel added: “It’s quite cruel.”
Things are set to turn up a notch during tomorrow night’s commitment ceremony, with a dramatic sneak peak shared at the end of the night’s episode. Celebs Go Dating star Paul C Brunson wasn’t holding back as he fumed at Sarah: “This man is talking about how lovely his partner is, and you are on the other side disrespecting him!”
Sarah can then be seen breaking down in tears away from the group, as she’s heard telling cameras: “That’s not me, that’s not who I am.”
During the honeymoon, Sarah had fans fuming when she was asked by producers if there was anything Dean could do for her to feel the sexual spark, to which she responded: “Get some tattoos and lose some weight, maybe?”
But how will things progress?
