MARRIED At First Sight couple Adam and Polly are on the brink of a split as the pair have another tense clash tonight.
Last night, Polly stormed out of the dinner party after she and Adam rowed over the Honesty Box challenge.
And it looks like things have gone from bad to worse as Adam hits out at Polly tonight, telling her: “I’m not stupid”.
In a bid to save their marriage, the pair attempt to clear the air the morning after the dinner party.
An apprehensive Polly tells Adam: “To me it sounded like you completely swerved the question and didn’t answer it properly, which is why I asked again how I did, which I have apologised for.”
Adam replies: “I was just annoyed, I read it wrong and you were like ‘that’s now what I asked you’.
“You told it to me again, you told me four times…I’m not stupid.”
Adam later told the cameras: “I’ve definitely seen a different side to Polly last night, I could say it’s not helping the attraction with Polly acting that way, because it did make me feel really small and I don’t like that side of her to be honest.”
She responds: “It was obvious you were a***y, I need to be told when to stop, obviously in a nice way.”
But an unconvinced Adam explains how her actions has made him doubt their relationship.
He goes on: “After last night, I feel like we’ve taken a step back again.”
Speaking to the camera, he admits: “If this marriage was on the outside world, I probably wouldn’t continue it.
“I’m not quite sure what we’re going to do from here.”
It comes off the back of their explosive row last night in front of the cast members.
Each couple had to pick a question, and truthfully answer how they feel.
It was Polly’s turn to read her question to Adam.
She asked him: “Adam, what do you think you should do to prevent us from being stuck in the friendzone?”
However, he doesn’t take well to being asked this question and starts to get annoyed.
Adam replied: “If we’re stuck in the friendzone, that’s because I’m not ready to take it to the next step.
“And if I take it to that next step and then in a couple of weeks’ time say I’m not feeling it still, that would upset you and hurt you.”
Polly responded: “But I feel like you’ve dodged that question because that’s what you say to that every time you’re asked it.”
Adam said: “But that is the truth. That’s not really dodging the question.”
She then repeated the question, so that he can understand what she was saying better, but this angers him further.
Polly then told the other couples to pipe down leaving them shocked.
Adam said: “I feel like you’re speaking to me in a tone I’ve not heard before,” with Kieran piping up: “You’re overthinking that in your head.”
But Polly wasn’t having any of it and told her co-stars to stop intervening.
She yelled: “Everyone just shut up for a minute,” leaving the cast stunned.
Lashing out at his bride, Adam said: “You’re speaking to me like s**t!”
He then concluded: “I knew they were going to be s**t questions anyway.”
Polly was left in floods of tears and fumed at Adam: “You’ve made me look like a d***head in front of everyone.”
She then yelled at the group to stop talking, before storming out of the dinner party.
Mafs couples that have stood the test of time
Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.
The pair couldn’t keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam’s Doncaster home.
Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau.
Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December.
Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: “I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out – and excited for everything to come.”
Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019.
Owen recalled: “I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work.
“While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in.
“The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if I signed up?’
“A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.”
Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson.
Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna’s vegan lifestyle, the show’s first same sex pairing are still going strong.
They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod.
Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: “We’re not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship.”
