The Married at First Sight Season 18 couples enjoyed a few days of paradise in Mexico, but reality is about to hit.
It hasn’t been smooth sailing for the newlyweds, but their issues will intensify in the upcoming episodes.
The honeymoon is over, and they will be moving in together when the new episode airs.
It will be interesting to see how that plays out because the couples are already facing issues in their marriage.
Madison is having trouble with attraction to her husband, Allen because he’s not the athletic, pretty boy type she typically likes.
Karla and Juan have been doing well but had a rough moment during their honeymoon. Emem is enamored with Ikechi, but MAFS viewers are not convinced he’s on the show for the right reasons.
The most compatible couple is Thomas and Camille, but she’s been complaining that she needs her husband to have a bit more swag.
The worst of the bunch is David and Michelle, and it’s been painful to watch the 35-year-old try to connect with his bride only to be shut down time after time.
In the upcoming episode, things are about to get real when the Chicago newlyweds attempt to merge their lives and start living together as man and wife.
The Chicago newlyweds move in together in the upcoming episode
Episode 7, Basement Blues, is a major clue that David and Michelle have more trouble ahead.
The overview notes that the newlyweds are back from their honeymoon in Mexico and waking up in their new homes with their new spouses—except for one.
We can guess that the couple that did not move in together was Michelle and David.
The mismatched pair recently discussed their living situation, and Michelle made it known she had no plans to sleep in the same bed as her husband when they moved in together.
However, after their awkward honeymoon, she might have decided not to move in with David at all.
The episode will feature the nerve-wracking home visits, which could be the nail in the coffin for the troubled duo.
Michelle was completely turned off to learn her husband lived in his parent’s basement, but did the visit to his home make things even worse?
Here’s what to expect in Episode 8 of MAFS
Episode 8, Chef’s Kiss and a Rude Diss, will show the couples after they’ve moved in together and are getting comfortable with their new living arrangements.
The episode will feature the housewarming parties, with friends and family members in tow.
The description teases that one couple will see a way to mend their differences, but a rift between another newlywed could be their undoing.
