Tensions reached boiling point on Wednesday's episode of Married At First Sight, when bride Morena Farina publicly confronted Ryan Donnelly over the insensitive comments he made about wife Jacqui Burfoot.
The confrontation occurred at a dinner party, in which the wedding MC, 57, had some choice words for her controversial co-star, after he told his fellow grooms that Jacqui 'has got crazy eyes... but she gives good h**d.'
Morena began banging on the table and calling out Ryan's name to get his attention, and then publicly scolded him.
'Ryan, from a 57-year-old woman, if you are in a room with all these boys and you speak of Jacqui, "she gives good h**d"... Are you joking?' Morena began.
She then reprimanded Ryan over his misogynistic remarks and said he should never again speak about women that way.
'I haven't finished! Do not speak about women like that at all. It is out of line, it is not good,' she said.

However, Jacqui sided with her husband and said she found Ryan's remarks to be 'complimentary' and admitted she did in fact have 'crazy eyes'.
Elsewhere, series 'nice guy' Dave Hand, 36, also lashed out at Ryan for speaking about his wife in a disrespectful manner - and attempting to downplay it is as a 'joke'.
'It's disgusting! The way he said it wasn't a f***ing positive joke, he was making fun of her. I don't speak about women like that. I don't feel anyone should,' Dave snapped.
'It made me pretty upset he didn't recognise that was a s***ty thing to do. It's not okay to talk s**t about your wife behind their back and I took offence to it! No one here speaks about their partner like that!'
Dave then put Ryan on the spot by bluntly asking him: 'Do you think you should have said it... yes or no? You said it and it was uncomfortable for me and everyone in that room.'
Ryan dodged the question by snapping back with: 'You're not making any sense!'
'Obviously you are dumb if you don't understand you don't speak about women like that,' Dave shot back.
However, the tables were quickly turned as groom Paul Antoine then asked Morena why there was tension in her relationship with her husband Tony Mojanovski, 53.

'Morena, I've got questions, because you are giving love and relationship advice, but talk to us about your own relationship,' Paul began.
'I want to know what is going on with you [and Tony], because I just heard you screaming in the hall,' Paul told her.
In a shocking twist, Tony jumped in and told the group he wasn't spending weekends with his wife because her outspoken nature intimidated him.
'At times I think [Morena] is very, very loud. I'm trying but I am scared to talk to you... because you are going to talk over me. I am scared to offend you,' Tony said.
'Every morning I have brought you coffee. This is my way of showing you affection and trying to make things nice for you,' Tony said.
'I am trying but you keep talking over me. I am scared to talk to you. I buy you coffee, I take you to dinner, I do everything I can... you're not happy!'
Series relationship expert Mel Schilling then said that Morena's communication style was very loud - and she needed to work on changing it for her relationship with Tony to work out.
'Morena's communication style is aggressive, loud. It is pointy and she will not back down,' Mel said.
'She just keeps yelling!' fellow expert John Aiken added.
Married At First Sight continues Sunday at 7:00pm on Channel Nine and 9Now.
