And after the season they’ve had, that’s saying a lot.
But after the second dinner party of the season we were delighted by a single moment, a fleeting glimpse into the souls of the experts and what did we see? Ourselves.
We feel seen.
During the celebrations, the unsure, former-virgin Matt was increasingly more conflicted with how to deal and process how he doesn’t feel that he and his “wife” Lauren’s desires don’t line up and that he doesn’t feel “attracted to her and he’s just not feeling those urges”.
Which may be due to the fact that Lauren opened up about her romantic past and that she “used to be a lesbian” (a statement which is problematic in itself).
At least she was open!
Lauren confronted Matt over revealing this to the guys and this is when the greatest moment in the five-season history of Married At First Sight occurred.
The camera cuts to the three “experts” who are visibly shocked, shaken and disappointed.
YA DUN GOOFED IT! also that’s the actual quote.
A moment of pure, unadulterated beauty because, dear viewer, that is how we’ve felt throughout this whole Ines-fuelled journey.
Could we take this moment to help capture our feelings at other moments in time?
Yes, yes we can.
