On March 17, 2025, the excitement of Married at First Sight Australia season 12 continued with its thirtieth episode, which prominently featured the much-anticipated Homestays Week. This unique phase of the social experiment enables participating couples to immerse themselves in each other’s hometowns, allowing them to engage with family for a glimpse into their lives beyond the show.
However, lingering tensions from the recent Commitment Ceremony cast a shadow over the proceedings, with several couples grappling with various conflicts.
In Melbourne, the complexities of trust weighed heavily on Dave and Jamie. During this visit, Jamie’s sister, Georgia, scrutinized Dave’s commitment during a meeting at a local Greek restaurant. Her challenge was straightforward yet loaded with implications:
“Are you falling in love with Jamie?” Georgia asked Dave.
Although Dave expressed hope for a deeper connection, Georgia remained skeptical, commenting,
“This is f**king grim,”
indicating her belief that he might be evading the reality of their relationship. Jamie, witnessing this discourse, began to mirror her sister’s doubts, pondering whether it was the right time to advance their relationship.
As the episode unfolded, Jamie and Dave opted for separate accommodations in Melbourne, illustrating the growing rift between them. Jamie candidly acknowledged her state of indecision, stating,
“My feelings rare in a box somewhere right now,”
signaling the unresolved status of their relationship as the experiment progressed.
Adrian Faces Cleo’s Doubts in Perth
Meanwhile in Perth, Adrian confronted the reality of his relationship with Awhina during a tense meeting with her family, particularly her twin sister Cleo, who maintained her skepticism about Adrian’s suitability. Despite Adrian’s hope for reconciliation and an apology, Cleo outright dismissed the notion, stating:
“It feels like this is a fake relationship,”
prompting Adrian to question her willingness to adapt and move to Sydney due to their geographical challenges.
The discussion escalated as Cleo insisted on her view that Adrian was not the right fit for Awhina:
“I just don’t see you as the ending,”
she asserted, solidifying the doubts lingering in the air. Despite Awhina’s presence during the confrontation, she chose not to intervene, having previously expressed her frustrations over the ongoing rift between Adrian and Cleo.
Unfortunately, the confrontation offered no resolution. Adrian left the discussion acutely aware that Cleo’s opinions about him had not shifted, complicating matters further within his relationship with Awhina as their journey on Married at First Sight Australia continued.
