It’s the morning after the dinner party on Married at First Sight and Cathy, Stacey and Hayley have met to debrief ahead of the second commitment ceremony.

Cathy opens up about how her and Josh have had their “first proper argument.”

The row, which Cathy explained, caused Josh to threaten to leave, was sparked by Hayley touching his arm at the dinner party.

“Was I flirting with Josh? Or was Josh flirting with me?” Hayley asked the camera.

Explaining to Hayley that in the past, she’d always look for signs that her partner has been cheating on her, it was clear Hayley and Josh’s interaction had riled her.  

It was also a fight Josh had earlier described as ‘a worry’ and that had raised “a few red flags.”  

“Oh no, did you think that was happening?” asked Hayley.

“I started to get threatened and jealous that he was talking to all the girls,” explained Cathy, getting tearful.

“I wouldn’t flirt with someone else’s husband anyway. I’m all about staying true to girl code. No. That’s absurd,” said Hayley.

“Was I flirting with Josh? Or was Josh flirting with me?” Hayley asked the camera.

“Absolutely not, that’s my husband’s best friend, are you kidding me?”

Adding, “I wouldn’t flirt with someone else’s husband anyway. I’m all about staying true to girl code. No. That’s absurd.”

Then we cut to Josh as he caught up with David and Jonethen for their debrief.

“I don’t feel like Hayley crossed any line and if she did, I wouldn’t disrespect my wife. I wouldn’t disrespect David who I get along with,” he said.

Later, captured by the camera alone (how much were the crew loving getting ‘wistful Josh’? Classic), we see him toying with his black Stay or Leave folder.

“Tonight is a hard decision,” he said. “I like Cathy, I get along with Cathy but If the trust isn’t there, unfortunately, the relationship isn’t there for me.”
