MARRIED At First Sight descended into chaos tonight when a row broke out after one of the wives was accused of plotting to husband swap.
Under fire bride Julia-Ruth found herself in hot water when Nelly made the claim against her during tonight’s Commitment Ceremony.
Julia-Ruth and husband Divarni have had a rollercoaster journey so far on Married At First Sight UK.
However, things went from bad to worse on tonight’s episode following an explosive claim made by fellow bride Nelly.
It all started last night when Julia-Ruth admitted to “fancying” Nelly’s husband Steven at the Dinner Party.
This then sparked a furious row tonight, with further claims made.
During tonight’s Commitment Ceremony, whilst speaking to the experts Nelly revealed Julia-Ruth’s “plot” to “husband swap” with Steven.
Spilling the beans, she said: “It’s transpired that after last week’s commitment ceremony, Julia-Ruth had met some people from the group and said that she’d really fancied Steven and that she needs to stay [on MAFS] for two more weeks because she hopes she gets him for partner swap.
“That’s just not right at all.
“Julia-Ruth brought up that she wanted to couple swap, ideally with Steven.”
Continuing, Nelly said: “How can at one moment you be giving me advice as a friend and making sure that I’m OK, but then in that same sort of day a few hours later, telling people that you fancy Steven and you’ve got to stay in the game for two weeks so that you can couple swap with him? “
Firing back, Julia-Ruth said: “I haven’t had more than six conversations with Stephen.
“The honesty box came up and I answered it, so, OK, fine, I dug myself a grave, but, like, it’s…please, like, I can’t do this anymore. OK. That’s fair. It’s just not f***ing fair.”
A source previously told The Sun: “There have been lots of rumours on social media doing the rounds about a secret wife swap later this season but it remains to be seen whether that involves Julia-Ruth and Steven.”
Poor Divarni was shocked to hear Nelly’s claims, having already been through a lot the last week.
Julia-Ruth came under fire by the other MAFS stars after it was revealed she had been sleeping with Divarni throughout the experiment, despite telling everyone she didn’t like him.
This then sparked a furious row both at the Dinner Party and Commitment Ceremony with bride Leigh.
Tonight’s show ended on a cliffhanger with Divarni about to reveal whether he has chosen to “stay or leave” the show.
MAFS continues tomorrow night at 9pm
