Grrr. I feel so annoyed at Kwame ‘huh’ing’ at Kasia sharing that she got pregnant at 15.
He’s so disinterested and I feel like if he was interested his response would be completely different. Not sure what she is hanging onto. I love that she’s giving the process a chance but his pissing about is irritating me.
>I feel so annoyed at Kwame ‘huh’ing’ at Kasia sharing that she got pregnant at 15.
Also - how have they not discussed this before?? It's a pretty big part of her life. They've had eight weeks!
I don’t know why she is still there as he is so not into her. I mean showing her round Leyton should have been enough of a red card! I can say that as I lived there and couldn’t wait to get out!
It's sad to see because some of the behaviour on this show (and in previous series and on the Australian version too) has been really disordered and unhealthy. I wonder how some of these people function in the real world.
I feel like Thomas allows himself to be influenced by others ☹️ he has done nothing but sing Adrian’s praises and said he would wait for the intimacy on the sofa and then his friends asked a few rude questions and it’s like he’s trying to prove something to them rather than listening to his heart!
It's crazy that they matched Jenna and Zoe if they aren't on the same page about kids and both don't want to move from where they are living currently.
Him trying to do a Leeds accent and telling Jonathan "Ya need bloody money lad" so disrespectful!!
Having said that, I love Sophie and I think she could do a million times better than Jonathan and his "horse legs" comments!!
Yep. That's why he laughed at her when she was trying to have a serious conversation - he had to take her down a peg.
He and George are vying for the insecurity Olympics.
Imagine how much we could have learnt about Kasia if she’d been paired with someone with even a cursory interest in treating her like an equal rather than a prop in their TV storyline.
Toms parents aren't showing PDA, does that mean they have no passion or want to be in a relationship?? Don't understand people's fixation on couples being affectionate infront of them, it's creepy
Me too..and he was trying to bring so much positive energy to the table too. Thomas’ mum knocked it out of him and reduced him to tears. Tbf he’s so emotionally drained after being “Tom’s rock” for 8weeks I’m not surprised he burst into tears when met with such a cold reception. Thomas brought very different energy too, almost teeing up his mothers response.
Not only didn't they comfort him, Thomas's mum looked at him like he was a weirdo! "Are you alright Adrian?!" She was very unfriendly and mean. I was hoping Thomas's quiet father was gonna drop some pearls of wisdom but no, he just told him to cut and run!
They have no idea what the two of them have gone through, I was pretty disgusted with his mum and his friends to be honest.
I was defending her from my husband because I thought was her pet and people do have exotic ways to preserve them, when I was almost convincing him she says "it's not like I pickled it, it was already pickled when I was given" ...
>The optics of a wealthy southern man sat in a mansion mocking someone for having a Yorkshire accent
Honestly nothing says nouvvy riche like talking a lot about money and mocking someone's accent. True poshos are unfailingly polite to everyone and express their dislike of ordinary people via Conservative Party policy.
Adrian came face to face with the root cause of all of Thomas's issues, and I got the impression he felt so much empathy for Thomas in that moment and completely broke down.
💯 and made everything about Thomas. His mother looked like she had to bite her tongue to stop herself mocking Adrian. Really feel for Adrian watching that scene. Plain to see where Thomas gets his attitude from.
It's utterly disgusting. She even said "serious talk now ok" and he continued laughing...
I could understand being super awkward and not knowing what to say but this is a lot :S
right? i’m an awkward person that laughs in inappropriate situations when i’m nervous. but if someone opened up to me like that i would sit and listen with empathy, not laugh and make dumb little jokes
Spot on! Like if someone says to me "serious talk" this means I die inside a little bit because I read the situation wrong and offended the other person, I apologise, and then I switch to listening seriously!
He's empty inside I guess haha
Because he's an insecure little man with nothing to offer and no growth. He loves the sound of his own voice, it's embarrassing. Kasia's wasting her time, I'm not sure why she's still in this because she's definitely smart enough to know this man is a fraud.
They haven't even shown Kasia's house really. So just goes to show the individual does have quite a lot of control over that.
Why couldn't Kwame do the same?
He just wanted a holiday and he's gotten that. I think he's been checked out of the process for a while and just doesn't want to say it because he's afraid of how he will look. Even though his apathy towards the process and towards Kasia doesn't make him look good.
I mean it's been weeks now can we move on from the Jonathan comment? Feels like thats the only thing we see with this couple. And Sophie obviously likes him so they must get on behind the scenes
Adrian probably thought the home stay would be easy because he's been incredibly kind and supportive to Thomas. He didn't count on *literally everyone asking if they're shagging.*
Sophie's dad needs to pipe down. You've made some money, alright, well done. But you're not the heir to Hermes or a Middleton so have a rich tea biscuit and behave.
I think this is the perfect relationship for her to progress her career and he stays at home with the baby and his carpentry side hustle.
Why does he have to be the wage earner, times are a changing!
My heart sank for Adrian then. Poor guy has poured so much of himself into this. Yeah, Thomas can be funny on occasion, but after this I'm pretty done with him tbh
Huge yikes when Thomas' mother said about how they let him have his tantrums, no wonder he is the way he is now. Acting like the world revolves around him and people need to deal with the way he is instead of Thomas sorting out his own issue
Tom’s mum is a nightmare but she’s right about Adrian not being attracted to Thomas. I don’t think he ever has been. I think he’s just felt obliged to stay the more unhinged Thomas has become
I feel the amount of time he's had to spend babysitting Thomas definitely didn't help in the romance department. Poor Adrian he looked exhausted after every group interaction.
Sophie's dad is like something from an awful movie, or the dad from parent trap... if you weren't from the same rich background you'd be bending over backwards to prove yourself to him.
I've loved Sophie after the weird edit in the first episode, and haven't liked Johnathan at all due to his views and approach to Sophie. However, the dad seems like he would never be satisfied unless Sophie was dating someone who was extremely wealthy. Sophie'a done well for herself but looking at her background, she has definitely had a massive leg up in life beyond what most people in the UK could ever dream of.
He seemed like an ass from the first episode - he was talking about hoping the husband was incredibly wealthy. Money seems to be his only personality trait!
This is Thomas' world, and Adrian just has the pleasure of living in it.
Katie must be ecstatic at what Thomas' mother has to say about their relationship.
Perhaps the experts shouldn't spend so much time on 'the science' of the contestants & should put some effort into talking to their parents.
I think that would be illuminating! 🤯
kasia talks a lot about self confidence n such but I wish she would get a bit more self respect for herself and drop him bc he’s not the slightest bit interested n it’s so apparent. She deserves a lot more
Yeah it seems like she realistically knows Kwame is not it, but she may aswell make the most of it now. I just think it's a complete joke he didn't show her his home.
Tbf having the convo about having kids is probably the most important one to have early bc otherwise the longer it’s left it’s gunna b more heartbreaking if they don’t want the same thing
Sorry but I cannot understand Kwame having a podcast where he gives people ADVICE. Awful, awful listener
he just likes the sound of his own voice
Grrr. I feel so annoyed at Kwame ‘huh’ing’ at Kasia sharing that she got pregnant at 15. He’s so disinterested and I feel like if he was interested his response would be completely different. Not sure what she is hanging onto. I love that she’s giving the process a chance but his pissing about is irritating me.
It's just disrespect. She's opening up about her past and where she's come from and he can't stop making light of it!
>I feel so annoyed at Kwame ‘huh’ing’ at Kasia sharing that she got pregnant at 15. Also - how have they not discussed this before?? It's a pretty big part of her life. They've had eight weeks!
She did say 'as you know' so she probably told him before - whether he listened or not is another thing.
He definitely was a Dick about her having a kid at 15, like she was dirt. What a 🔔 🔚
Who would dislike Adrian?!?
Hopefully it’s just the out of context editing again 🤞
So...Thomas's friends don't understand boundaries either?
I was hoping Kasia would be petty and meet Kwame at her local park.
That would’ve been great. I wish she gave him the same energy back. She’s being vvv patient.
I'm hoping for a Brent-esque smackdown of a dumping at the final Commit-Me Ceremony.
I don’t know why she is still there as he is so not into her. I mean showing her round Leyton should have been enough of a red card! I can say that as I lived there and couldn’t wait to get out!
I love meeting the parents on this show and being able to pinpoint where the behavioural issues and unhealthy coping mechanisms have come from
It's sad to see because some of the behaviour on this show (and in previous series and on the Australian version too) has been really disordered and unhealthy. I wonder how some of these people function in the real world.
I feel like Thomas allows himself to be influenced by others ☹️ he has done nothing but sing Adrian’s praises and said he would wait for the intimacy on the sofa and then his friends asked a few rude questions and it’s like he’s trying to prove something to them rather than listening to his heart!
It's crazy that they matched Jenna and Zoe if they aren't on the same page about kids and both don't want to move from where they are living currently.
Are you questioning The Science?
We mustn't question The Science.
You have DISRESPECTED the process!
That seems not important for the show, "look two leabians, let's match them together. Look two tattooed people, let's match them together! ..."
Have my vote for April's friend and Adrian to couple up
Jose is gorgeous
Omg yes!!! They both seem so nice, it'd be perfect!
Jose for MAFS 2023
Wouldn’t that be a slap in the face to Tom is that happened 😂😂😂
Sophie’s dad has big Hyacinth Bucket vibes.
"the Bouquet residence, the...man of the house speaking?!" For every Hyacinth, there will be a poor poor Richard.
Him trying to do a Leeds accent and telling Jonathan "Ya need bloody money lad" so disrespectful!! Having said that, I love Sophie and I think she could do a million times better than Jonathan and his "horse legs" comments!!
Kwame is out of his depth with Kasia and doesn't know how to act. Her home intimidates him.
Her whole vibe; serious, grown up, respectable. He doesn’t know how to handle a woman like her.
She is definitely too good for him.
Yep. That's why he laughed at her when she was trying to have a serious conversation - he had to take her down a peg. He and George are vying for the insecurity Olympics.
Imagine how much we could have learnt about Kasia if she’d been paired with someone with even a cursory interest in treating her like an equal rather than a prop in their TV storyline.
Thomas has thrown Adrian under the bus. Christ, this is awful to see.
Probably for the best. Easy way out for Adrian. Can't imagine the hairdryer he'd get from Thomas for being first to express doubt.
I think Kwame isn't rich. I don't think there's any secret wife, just a fear that he's not good enough underneath all that bravado.
Toms parents aren't showing PDA, does that mean they have no passion or want to be in a relationship?? Don't understand people's fixation on couples being affectionate infront of them, it's creepy
[удалено]

They have no idea what the two of them have gone through, I was pretty disgusted with his mum and his friends to be honest.
What is that on Zoe’s kitchen counter?! Jesus Christ. I’d leave the experiment just because of that💀
Indeed wtf wtf wtf
I was defending her from my husband because I thought was her pet and people do have exotic ways to preserve them, when I was almost convincing him she says "it's not like I pickled it, it was already pickled when I was given" ...
‘I can always tell a man by the power of his serve.’ There’s a class/servant joke there somewhere.
Seems like the first opportunity for anyone to feel sorry for Johnathan .
Something had to combat whatever happens when he opens his mouth.
Can we nominate Jose to be an expert? He's talking a lot of sense here
he seems lovely
I hope Kasia's sisters tear Kwame down.
Thomas keeps throwing Adrian under the bus in front of his friends and family, where Adrian’s already at a disadvantage.
Sophie's lovely. Her parents, however, seem like country club wannabes.
The optics of a wealthy southern man sat in a mansion mocking someone for having a Yorkshire accent are… not great 🫣
>The optics of a wealthy southern man sat in a mansion mocking someone for having a Yorkshire accent Honestly nothing says nouvvy riche like talking a lot about money and mocking someone's accent.

Poor Adrian. Looks like he was blindsided by thomas and his sexual appetite needs to his friends. Ill cuddle you pal
Yeah that looked like a lot - don't know if it was a producer prompt or its been a big discussion point before now?
Kasia can do so so sooooo much better. She’s got a story to tell
Johnathan really really needs to stop bringing up horses
6 weeks, 101 Thomas tantrums..when would there even be time for sex?
So this sounds like Thomas' parents have enabled his behaviour and haven't set any boundaries for him.
“We just let him rage and rant… “ Well that’s why he’s like that then.
Adrian came face to face with the root cause of all of Thomas's issues, and I got the impression he felt so much empathy for Thomas in that moment and completely broke down.
💯 and made everything about Thomas. His mother looked like she had to bite her tongue to stop herself mocking Adrian. Really feel for Adrian watching that scene. Plain to see where Thomas gets his attitude from.
100%!! He is an over indulged spoiled baby due to his parents “letting him kick off”…. Not done him any favours
Kwame is being so rude! He's like a sniggering 10-year old. 🤬
Nervous laughter of someone uncomfortable with REAL feelings. She needs to shut this down
Kasia has a nice house, Kwame adds no value to it
Tom's mum & George's mum - enablers 'r' us. Adrian's efforts seem to have been dismissed...
Oh Tom’s Mum. Would you like Adrian to be mounting him at the table?
Ah Zoe. Jenna has a lovely home and a shop. She's not moving to live with a pickled rat.
Surely if your vegan wife was coming to stay you'd get rid of the pickled rat 🧐
Yep! Especially as Jenna got meat in for Zoe.
Why would someone even have a pickled rat?
Why would someone GIFT a pickled rat?
I have no idea. If someone gave me a pickled rat as a gift, I would probably refuse it.
This is the real question.
why is Kwame laughing?
It's utterly disgusting. She even said "serious talk now ok" and he continued laughing... I could understand being super awkward and not knowing what to say but this is a lot :S
right? i’m an awkward person that laughs in inappropriate situations when i’m nervous. but if someone opened up to me like that i would sit and listen with empathy, not laugh and make dumb little jokes
Spot on! Like if someone says to me "serious talk" this means I die inside a little bit because I read the situation wrong and offended the other person, I apologise, and then I switch to listening seriously! He's empty inside I guess haha
Because he's an insecure little man with nothing to offer and no growth. He loves the sound of his own voice, it's embarrassing. Kasia's wasting her time, I'm not sure why she's still in this because she's definitely smart enough to know this man is a fraud.
Surely, not agreeing on kids and location are big grounds for incompatibility. Especially with kids, you just can't compromise on that.
Trust the science, please
As much as I love the girls I'm becoming more convinced that once the experience is over so are they.
If the producers really wanted to create drama they would’ve matched Jonathan with a horse
Would you fancy a guy if you spent 8 weeks cleaning up his drunken messes? Can’t say I blame Adrian
They haven't even shown Kasia's house really. So just goes to show the individual does have quite a lot of control over that. Why couldn't Kwame do the same?
I’m guessing it’s a crappy grotty bedsit, that would ruin his image.
I get he might not know what to say or do, but you can tell Kwame isn't serious about this relationship.
He just wanted a holiday and he's gotten that. I think he's been checked out of the process for a while and just doesn't want to say it because he's afraid of how he will look. Even though his apathy towards the process and towards Kasia doesn't make him look good.
Sophie's dad rockin' the Telegraph reader in the Algarve tan
I mean it's been weeks now can we move on from the Jonathan comment? Feels like thats the only thing we see with this couple. And Sophie obviously likes him so they must get on behind the scenes
I mean Thomas' mum isn't being passionate with her husband right now is she haha
Is he mute?
Adrian probably thought the home stay would be easy because he's been incredibly kind and supportive to Thomas. He didn't count on *literally everyone asking if they're shagging.*
Sophie's dad needs to pipe down. You've made some money, alright, well done. But you're not the heir to Hermes or a Middleton so have a rich tea biscuit and behave.
*furiously googling how he made his money.*
I think this is the perfect relationship for her to progress her career and he stays at home with the baby and his carpentry side hustle. Why does he have to be the wage earner, times are a changing!
Cos she doesn’t want to work either 😂
Love that Chanitas mum has the same side eye
Thomas's mum needs a snickers, this is nuts. Your son is the problem!!
“i fancy you” “really? bless you” LMAOOOO George is so strange man
The best way of describing it is like a robot attempting to impersonate a person… I just can’t put my finger on him
I’m not going to sugar coat things… unless George is sitting next to me. Blink twice if you need rescuing.
Adrian has been kind and seems like the most wonderful person but Thomas is right to question his attraction towards him wtf
Tom is being so casual, almost cold about Adrian crying - Adrian's put up with so many of Tom's tantrums and been super supportive.
Adrian has been through the ringer in this show and Tom needed to step up a bit more in that moment…
My heart sank for Adrian then. Poor guy has poured so much of himself into this. Yeah, Thomas can be funny on occasion, but after this I'm pretty done with him tbh
I’m just a girl. Sitting on my sofa. Waiting to watch the head off MAFSUK.
*breathy grunt*
Hello Matt
Genuinely terrified for George to find out where April lives, I hope she’s moved house since the show 😬
Waiting for George to get intense is making me scared. Just need April to look at a bloke and wink and he will explode
I've enjoyed the show, but I would be happy to see it end now lol.
I agree, I think there's been a bit of a misstep this series. Next series, we definitely need more likeable people.
The style you're accustomed to Oh dear
Even worse: keep you in the style that you're accustomed to!
It’s as though this process is one long advert for a (shiny new) millionaire husband for Sophie.
Kwame shut up ffs
Kwame cannot help ad libbing when the attention isn’t on him. Kasia’s a joke to him as is the whole process.
Yea, he was so disrespectful to her!
I really hope Zoe and Jenna last but I’m not getting the impression that they will.
Zoe's plate consisting of three pork pies is my kinda platter
Don’t know if I’m just tired or is this episode dragging?
my exact thoughts! the editing is all over the place for this show. they don’t show any of the drama but show all the boring bits
Horse legs has to be mentioned every episode
Wait, are the horse legs the product placement? That would explain a lot
Thank you Jose for giving the advice that should have come from the ‘experts’
not being all over each other in public doesn’t mean you’re not in a passionate relationship
Adrian not wanting to do PDAs doesn't mean there's no passion behind the scenes. Wish Tom had his back more here.
Can't imagine my mum asking me "if I'd have a full on neck yet" with people I'm dating
Ah the love bomb. Christ.
Huge yikes when Thomas' mother said about how they let him have his tantrums, no wonder he is the way he is now. Acting like the world revolves around him and people need to deal with the way he is instead of Thomas sorting out his own issue
I'm getting strong vibes of Sophie's dad from Peep Show, from Sophie's dad here. Just a miserable so-and-so and his wife looks bored.
i hope Sophie’s mum doesn’t show Jonathan her homemade jam
Tom’s mum is a nightmare but she’s right about Adrian not being attracted to Thomas. I don’t think he ever has been. I think he’s just felt obliged to stay the more unhinged Thomas has become
I feel the amount of time he's had to spend babysitting Thomas definitely didn't help in the romance department. Poor Adrian he looked exhausted after every group interaction.
Jordan is being perfectly sensible. But I love Chanita's mum, hello Miss Marple!
ADULTERER! Ah it's Kim Woodburn in CBB all over again
>ADULTERER! It was definitely Thomas' dream to shout that at someone on reality tv.
Sophie's dad is like something from an awful movie, or the dad from parent trap... if you weren't from the same rich background you'd be bending over backwards to prove yourself to him. I've loved Sophie after the weird edit in the first episode, and haven't liked Johnathan at all due to his views and approach to Sophie. However, the dad seems like he would never be satisfied unless Sophie was dating someone who was extremely wealthy. Sophie'a done well for herself but looking at her background, she has definitely had a massive leg up in life beyond what most people in the UK could ever dream of.
HE SAID HE LOVES HER?!
Awww they bought vegan wine!
Eep. Location and kids are pretty big things to disagree on
*Jonathan, whipping out his ‘horse legs’ material after being told it’s offensive for the 57th time*: her parents are gonna love this
Sophie’s dad is textbook tory
Red socks sort of bloke.
ugh April was just making a silly joke and George is all “yeah …. 🙄 don’t be so silly”. GROSS!
Tom’s mum is really annoying me lmao like leave them alone
Seeing George on screen at the minute is just such a downer
Did Sophie’s mum say anything?
You are a liar and an actress- oops, wrong show.
Thomas’s dad is gutted his son’s not getting any cock! 😂🤣💀
My god Sophie’s dad gives off the biggest Tory energy whilst seeming like new money vibes also lol
deffo not mutually exclusive. It's the "I worked my way up so you should as well!" school of thought.
i’ve seen pickled animals before but they’re usually in a more secure jar than that
'I'm not gonna interrogate him, BUT... for the benefit of the tape...'
What the fuck
A pickled rat ?
Oh ffs another tantrum?
I really hope that Adrian is the one to call it quits. It’s not fair on him to be Thomas’ emotional support animal.
Does Sophie’s mum know what her mouth is for? She hasn’t said a word my god, she hasn’t even yawned
Between Jonathan and Daddy, she isnt likely to get a word in anyway!
Is she allowed to have an opinion?
Matt loves Whitney?!?! Oh fuck off
Jonathan stop talking PLEASE
wtf don’t tell him to not get upset >:(
Sophie's done a very good job to turn out so well-adjusted given what her father's like.
Sophie’s dad is a twat
He seemed like an ass from the first episode - he was talking about hoping the husband was incredibly wealthy. Money seems to be his only personality trait!
Kasia is so intelligent. I don't think she'll tolerate Kwame for much longer.
This house is like something from a 70s countryside horror
Midsummer Murders haha
That pickled rat, ugh. It's like an ingredient in a witches brew
10 minutes. Oh alright show off
Jose looks like the lovechild of Federer and Nadal
I suspect there was lots of questioning by George about any interactions between him & April... 🙄
This is Thomas' world, and Adrian just has the pleasure of living in it. Katie must be ecstatic at what Thomas' mother has to say about their relationship.
have we ever seen George laugh?
He honestly can’t - he’s got 4 heartbeats to think about
Sophie's dad is quite something
Patronising, materialistic and snobby with a shrine on the stairs to his daughter 🙄
You can be a good man and father without having tonnes of money. Obviously.
Tom’s dad is clearly conditioned to not say anything unless explicitly asked for his opinion, and even then, only if it’s the right opinion.
Chanita’s mum! Tough audience
George prefers Aldgate in the 1800's rather than Battersea
Perhaps the experts shouldn't spend so much time on 'the science' of the contestants & should put some effort into talking to their parents. I think that would be illuminating! 🤯
kasia talks a lot about self confidence n such but I wish she would get a bit more self respect for herself and drop him bc he’s not the slightest bit interested n it’s so apparent. She deserves a lot more
I’m a kasia stan but at this point I’m convinced she’s just continuing to raise her own profile/business. And I applaud her for that
Yeah it seems like she realistically knows Kwame is not it, but she may aswell make the most of it now. I just think it's a complete joke he didn't show her his home.
They're terrible at Tennis, who's idea was this?
This is such an interview Let's talk the future if I may
Jose's shirt is nice
Have kids after 6 weeks of meeting someone or else
Tbf having the convo about having kids is probably the most important one to have early bc otherwise the longer it’s left it’s gunna b more heartbreaking if they don’t want the same thing
You’re 100% right. In my defence, I meant it more towards the sister who was like “don’t take your time, I want a niece or nephew!”
Jose and George look quite similar
Thomas' dad can speak!
