Married at First Sight UK season 9 spoilers follow.
Married at First Sight UK's new couples have jetted off to their honeymoons, but the holiday ended in tears for one pair.
In tonight's (September 18) episode, brides Eve Reid and Charlie Curtis were off to Mexico, but a disagreement put a stop to their romantic getaway as they got separate accommodations.
Whilst enjoying a drink in the pool, the pair argued when Eve told Charlie to "chill out" after she got overwhelmed by her bride's attention. A hurt Charlie stormed out, with Eve then deciding to get her own room for the night.

"I like my own space," Eve told producers later on.
"I walked off, and I haven't heard from her since," Charlie said as she teared up.
"She's clearly not as committed as me," she concluded.
The couple attempted to smooth things over the next day. Eve apologised to her partner for having disappeared for 12 hours.
Charlie admitted she was feeling "like sh*t". "That's not what marriage is in my eyes," she continued, saying that she saw going to bed on an argument as a "massive red flag".
Eve insisted she needed "a bit more time" to feel comfortable, but Charlie was adamant better communication would be crucial if they wanted to make their relationship work.
"I know. I'm sorry," Eve said, with Charlie adding: "I just don't want you to push me out."
The two brides hugged it out, but Eve told producers she wasn't completely over the row.
"There's still a sticky feeling there," she said. "Don't wanna scare myself off."

MAFS expert Paul C Brunson predicted the two would have an instant connection but would have probably struggled over their different paces in relationships.
Despite making up, Eve chose to sleep on her own again that night.
The next day, Charlie was resentful and accused Eve of leaving her alone. The conversation turned into a heated argument, with Eve leaving once again when Charlie raised her voice.
Eve opted to sleep solo a second night, but Charlie struggled to understand her motives and her unwillingness to communicate. A further row left the pair's future uncertain as Charlie announced she'd leave the experiment.

The honeymoon brought about more uncomfortable confrontations for the other couples.
In Jamaica, Emma Barnes and Caspar Todd discussed their lack of physical intimacy, with Caspar revealing he didn't find her "sexy". They later spent the night apart, but morning brought clarity after an honest conversation.
Meanwhile, in The Gambia, Lacey Martin was unimpressed with Nathan Campbell's reaction when she opened up about a traumatic personal experience. She explained her fear of driving stems from losing "two very good friends" to car crashes, as well as having been in a car crash herself.
"Cool," was Nathan's lacklustre response.
"He didn't give me much back," Lacey said in the VT, but they were able to clear the air when he apologised and opened up on his ADHD diagnosis.

Meanwhile, Kristina Goodsell and Kieran Chapman's bond grew deeper during their break in Thailand.
Kristina told her partner she has pre-menstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), an extreme form of pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS) that can cause severe mood swings and impact relationships.
Kieran promised to look out for her and support her, leaving Kristina beaming at his empathy and understanding.
"I genuinely could not ask for any more," she told producers, adding that she was "falling" for him.
