Married At First Sight descended into complete turmoil as one bride confessed to kissing another wife.
After last week’s final commitment ceremony, which saw several couples choose to exit the programme, the remaining pairs have been focusing on building stronger bonds as the experiment draws to an end.
Yet things appear bleak for Leigh and Leah, whose relationship has experienced numerous highs and lows since they wed on the E4 programme.
The couple’s journey began awkwardly when Leigh revealed Leah wasn’t her typical preference after exchanging vows.
Subsequently, Leigh has been critical of her wife Leah, claiming she has been disrespectful throughout their partnership, particularly regarding her remarks about other brides, reports OK!.
Yet in a surprising turn during Saturday’s (November 9) episode, Leigh kissed fellow bride Leisha, who is partnered with Reiss, on the lips.
During Monday’s (November 10) episode, the kiss dominated conversations amongst the couples as they gathered for their final dinner party.
Unsurprisingly, Leah was distressed about the incident, arguing that Leigh would have responded far more severely had the situation been reversed.
Leigh downplayed Leah’s concerns and attempted to trivialise the situation, but tensions escalated at the dinner table. Leah promptly questioned her wife: “Why did you kiss her (Leisha)?” Leigh maintained: “I didn’t kiss her, she kissed me.”
Everyone was stunned when Leah interjected: “But you allowed that to happen. Why did you think that was ok? It just doesn’t add up so you’re allowed to kiss Leisha but I’ve been disrespectful.”
In an attempt to deflect attention from her kiss, Leigh caught everyone off guard by questioning whether anything had occurred between Leah and Leisha during the couples’ swap.
Leisha was far from pleased as she intervened sharply: “Are you joking. This is an absolute joke. It is so disrespectful to me, Leah and Reiss that this is getting brought up and I don’t even know why it’s being made into a thing. It’s so disrespectful.”
Those watching from home were quick to share their thoughts online, with one viewer posting on X, formerly Twitter: “Their last dinner party, you’d think they’d be having a good drink and laugh together. This is painful #MAFSUK #MAFS.”
Another remarked: “Not Leigh trying to make Leah’s flirty behaviour to be worst than kissgate #MAFSUK.”
A third observer noted: “Leigh is scrambling for ANYTHING to use to look like a victim right now. Why on earth would she bring up partner swap week? ? #MAFSUK.”
One viewer stated: “Leigh has a sly way of avoiding accountability and a master at flipping the script! #mafsuk.”
A fifth added: “Leigh doesn’t trust Leah and Leisha so she’s just gone there with Leisha before Leah has a chance to.”
Meanwhile, another fan concluded: “I’m sorry but Leigh has no leg to stand on now because you literally kissed another wife #MAFSUK.”
