More evidence of their strained relationship came to light the day after their ceremony.
The pair were spotted flying to their honeymoon in Broome separately, with Connie, 27, looking particularly frazzled and with no ring on her finger.
Connie’s experience with rejection has caused her self-esteem to plummet in the past.
'I had been single for five years, and I was a little bit scared of dating. I kind of gave up on dating and I just don’t use Tinder,' she explains.
'I just deal with a lot of rejection and I just didn’t really know how to handle it any more.'
Last night, viewers watched as Connie nervously told her unimpressed mother that she was taking part in MAFS.
"[I'm] feeling really nervous," Connie admitted as she geared up to tell her mother the news.
"My mum can be quite a hot-headed woman, and she’s someone who doesn’t exactly embrace change."
"She is not a fan of the show at all, so she was quite shocked when she found out that I was doing it. She wasn’t very impressed at all," Connie revealed to New Idea.
"It was very deflating after having that conversation with her and it did make me doubt myself a bit.
"I think what really upset her as well is she sees bad reviews about the show, and she doesn’t want her daughter associated with something like that."
