Married At First Sight’s Timothy Smith and Lucinda Light have taken a closer look at their relationship.
The tension was palpable as Lucinda exposed the core of their struggle during the commitment ceremony on Sunday evening.
“The steel gates went up pretty quickly. I felt quite uncomfortable and a bit unwelcome. There were a few incidents that happened where I was very disappointed,” Lucinda admitted.
Timothy acknowledged his lackluster effort and said, “I didn’t go to a host family with the best attitude.”
His words reflected the distance growing between them, a gap made even wider by his actions, or lack thereof.

“And the more you dig into it, the more I withdraw. And I need that space,” he admitted, offering a glimpse into his own struggle with vulnerability.
