MAFS UK fans express discontent with Grace’s friends
Viewers urged Ashley to ‘flee’ from her fiery friends
Grace and Ashley’s wedding did not start off on the right foot, as the bride took issue with nearly all of her new husband's comments.
She frequently felt offended by his traditional remarks, but it seemed they had made progress during their honeymoon.
However, after another argument last week, the timing of the meet-up with Grace’s friends for in-laws week was unfortunate for Ashley.
As the newlyweds met her friends for the first time since their wedding, they quickly put Ashley on the spot, intensely questioning him about his intentions.
They did not hold back, leaving Ashley visibly uncomfortable with their probing inquiries.
Meanwhile, fans watching at home urged the groom to "run" as they criticized Grace’s friends' behavior.
Claiming that the friends were not helping to improve the couple's marriage, one viewer commented online: “Grace and her friends will put Ashley off women for life.”
Another viewer questioned: “Will Grace face similar scrutiny from Ashley’s friends?”
A third added a vomiting emoji, saying: “Grace’s friends.”
This interaction occurred just a day after a heated argument between the couple regarding their communication issues, which they quickly discussed with Grace’s friends.
During a conversation, Grace ended up shouting at her spouse while he attempted to explain his perspective.
In the latest episode, the couple spoke with the matchmakers.
Ashley was trying to improve their relationship, mentioning a brief intimate moment they shared.
He described lifting Grace and placing her on the countertop, where she reportedly nuzzled into his neck.
Grace was displeased with Ashley discussing this moment, claiming he exaggerated certain aspects of the interaction, making her appear dishonest.
Ashley apologized but stated: “I’m not going to share the story solely from your perspective,” emphasizing the importance of expressing his own viewpoint on the events.
Grace was not pleased with this response, exclaiming that having a conversation with him is “like talking to a brick wall.”
