Intimacy Week has finally come to a close on Married at First Sight, and most of our couples experienced a happy ending… of sorts.

Some of our most unstable couples somehow found common ground, with Claire and Jesse moving back in together, and even Bronte and Harrison seemingly mending their relationship… for now. The same can’t be said for Shannon and Caitlin, as while they started the week off positively, by the end of the tasks, they had parted ways after Shannon said some straight-up cruel and degrading remarks about his wife’s appearance.

This show is all about swings and roundabouts, and just when we’ve pigeonholed Harrison as the worst villain ever cast on MAFS, Shannon bursts in to say ‘Hold my beer’.

It was a tough episode to watch, but thankfully, Twitter was there to offer some much needed comedic reprieve.

The end of Intimacy Week on Married at First Sight retold in hilarious tweets:

Intimacy Week continues, with Melissa and Josh still not getting along. Josh opens Alessandra’s sex box and clearly isn’t taking the task seriously. On the flip-side, Shannon embraces the week by surprising Kaitlin with a special meal and a handwritten letter.

Layton almost burnt the apartment down by lighting his toaster on fire. Melinda thinks he’s a bit of a himbo and also worries their connection is not going deep enough.

Bronte pays Harrison a visit asking to start their relationship with a clean slate. They attempt the eye-gazing task and it somehow brings the couple back together. I ain’t buying it.

Layton and Melinda complete the same eye-gazing task, but Layton doesn’t take it seriously prompting Melinda to say she doesn’t feel like their relationship is being prioritised. Melinda then refuses to do the five-minute kissing challenge. Go off, sis!

As a former Mormon, Alyssa freaks out over the kissing task, as if every person on this earth doesn’t want to kiss Duncan. But once she gets into it, things get steamy! After a sensual massage, the show’s camera operators awkwardly vacate their bedroom.

Claire takes Jesse to a place called The Crystal Gallery, and somehow it’s not a total disaster. Later, Jesse presents Claire with a cute list of all the things he likes about her, as words of affirmation are her love language. It’s actually super sweet. They move back in together. Do we ship these two now?! Maybe so!

Layton surprises Melinda with a dancing lesson which seems to reignite their spark. Elsewhere, after completing their tasks, Shannon is back doing what he does best (aka worst): saying cruel things to his wife about her looks.

Shannon then goes a step further, saying that if Caitlin’s looks ‘blew him away’, then he wouldn’t have brought up his ex. Caitlin (nor any woman) does not deserve to be spoken to like this. Disgusting!

Caitlin stands her ground, telling him she was “gobsmacked” by their last convo, and in response, Shannon mocks her. In. The. Bin. Shannon is rude and dismissive but Caitlin ABSOLUTELY DRAGS HIM TO HELL. She then walks out. Queen shit.
