If you've been watching Married at First Sight Australia, you'll know that the new season is already absolute chaos.
Not only has one couple - Nat and Collins - already left, but this week, bride Lucinda became emotional after a pretty dramatic dinner party.

To recap, there were already some tensions in the air following intimacy week, in which Lucinda, 43 and husband, Timothy, 51, clashed over the level of affection in their marriage.
In a tense exchange, Tim basically told Lucinda to 'put a shirt on' at night after she'd taken her top off in bed the night before.
Things hadn't really progressed for the couple in the intimacy department, but they were still trying to build on the foundations of their marriage.
Fast forward to the dinner party - scenes of which were aired on Thursday (14 March) - and Timothy decided to take a swipe at another couple, Tori and Jack.
In a recent episode, Jack had said he was a 'slow burner' and that was the reason why he and Tori hadn't slept together yet.
However, he had also admitted to the other men in the experiment that he wasn't sure there was a sexual attraction between the two.

But Timothy said he 'didn't buy' the slow burner comment and used the dinner party to bring this up to them, again.
Naturally, they became defensive and ended up taking swipes at his relationship in retaliation.
Lucinda was caught in the crossfire after it emerged that Tim had previously dated a 23-year-old woman.
Tori ended up shouting across the table that Tim 'didn't even like his wife' and Lucinda looked pretty crushed.
Speaking to cameras afterwards, Lucinda became emotional and seemed pretty overwhelmed by the whole onslaught.

"I feel a bit humiliated," explained Lucinda.
"People throwing back and forth, are you attracted to your wife, and how about the 23 year old? I wanted to hide in my shell.
"I am in the assessment seat wondering is this for me at all.
"You know all this explosion happening around, I wanted to crawl into a hole and get under the duvet cover and not even be around it. I just felt a bit sick."

Tim meanwhile spoke to cameras outside the party, explaining: "You know, I don't have a stereotypical type. If I connect with someone over a period of time, we end up dating."
MAFS Australia continues Monday-Thursday at 7.30pm on E4.
