ANONYMOUS letter week hit our screens on Married At First Sight last night.
The episode really did keep me on the edge of my seat.

What could go wrong with a bunch of people in predominantly unhappy marriages, giving other people advice about their relationships?
Well…
If you are as obsessed with Married At First Sight as I am, you need to keep reading, as I’ve got some thoughts…
We saw Kieran and Kristina’s letter, and even Ice Queen herself (me), did shed a tear.
It is very difficult to see that they do really like each other and respect each other but it’s just not working.
We just haven’t seen enough as to why it’s not working.
That’s the only thing I’m confused about.
It seemed to be going so well and I don’t know if it’s because they got lost in the edit, but Kieran has checked out of this relationship and he needs to call time on it now.
You can see Kristina’s heart breaking in front of the nation.
I really hope that he doesn’t take her all the way to the end, exit the process without the drama.
I don’t think they’re here for it.
We’re forgetting that it sounds like Kieran has been through an abusive relationship before, so honestly I don’t think he was ready for this process.
I feel like he needs to invest in himself and get some help.
If you’re not emotionally ready, it’s not fair to inflict that on anyone else.
Adam and Polly
I also hope that Adam and Polly just call time on this now.
It doesn’t look like home stays are going to go well for them. It’s not going to work.
You’ve had a good run in the experiment, you’ve got quite a lot of screen time, are you just learning what you don’t want in a relationship, rather than what you do want?
We saw that Adam had enough.
Polly was saying at the start she doesn’t think she’s pressured him to be sexual or change the intimacy that they’re having.
Polly… you literally did punch a punching bag in the last episode, and joke, if he doesn’t put out, this is what is going to happen to him.
I do feel like there was a lot of pressure on Adam.
But it was actually nice to see Polly take some accountability and step back and think actually this has been what I want, because she feels so hurt from the initial comment about not finding her attractive and felt that she had all the cards to play with.
Whether this epiphany with Polly will change how she is with Adam.
I don’t know. She does like to attack arguments like a bull in a china shop.
Amy and Luke
I really do feel for Amy because I do think that what she has heard is that she feels like Luke is calling her boring and she’s not as fun.
But I will say, I do feel a little sorry for Luke.
If I remember rightly, when he said to Lacey about the photo, he wasn’t saying he wants Amy to be how Lacey is with other people, he just wants a little more spice in his relationship.
Sacha’s letter
Then we had Sacha’s letter. I’m going to say Sacha because I don’t know how much Ross actually put into that.
Luke had a very one sided letter, exactly like I had from Jordan from last season.
I said exactly what Luke said – there is no advice here, this is a personal attack on my character.
Sacha does attack a little bit. She did positions her opinion as facts.
You have got involved in other people’s business.
Let’s not forget Luke did not want to be involved in Hannah’s drama, I don’t know, maybe that’s changed and maybe he’s playing up to the cameras, it does happen to the best people in there.
Especially if you’re not getting enough screen time.
Amy and Luke were quite quiet because of what everything else was going on in the season. Maybe Luke’s like ‘we’ve got to change this’.
The last dinner party is going to be a very small affair, I’m banking on that right now.
