Married at First Sight UK star Brad Skelly has broken his silence after a fiery dinner party was aired.
Last night's (October 3) episode saw the couples congregate for a meal, with a spanner being thrown into the works as they each had to take part in the Honesty Challenge.
Things took a turn for the worse as Brad and wife Shona Manderson were deemed the least genuine couple by fellow contestant Luke Worley, with Brad telling Shona to "shut up" as she argued that they had a connection.

Taking to Instagram shortly after the episode had aired, Brad shared his reaction watching the scene back.
"That edit was difficult to watch," he wrote on his Instagram Stories, alongside the covered eyes monkey emoji.
Brad appeared to mirror the expression of the emoji, with the caption shared alongside a black and white photo of him with his hand over his face.

The argument in question saw Brad clash with Shona after her supposed need for "external validation" in their relationship, with Brad adding: "I don’t care if people don’t see our love. I don’t have an emotional attachment to somebody else. You need to let it go."
With the current series of MAFS UK now heating up, expert Mel Schilling recently urged viewers to be kind about the contestants, saying: "Remember that our couples are just here for love, and please support them on their journey."
