Grab several garbage bags filled with four-week old laundry because we’re going back home to visit the parents on this week’s Married at First Sight.

That’s right, it’s Homestays Week which means each couple will attempt to merge one another into their everyday lives, as they return to their hometowns, introduce their families to their spouses, and try not to lose their minds.

The first half of the week went better for some couples than others. Ella’s family were just as delightful as the MAFS bride, welcoming Mitch into their Brighton home. Tamara and Brent somehow ended up getting along long enough to get drunk together, before showing up at Brent’s parents house hungover. Dom and Jack had a big Italian family reunion, as Jack’s parents joined Dom’s at their family farm for an Italian lunch that was super wholesome.

Selina had a rude awakening when she found out that Cody — a man with the emotional maturity of a walnut — still lives like a 19-year-old. But the most awkward moments were saved for Olivia’s visit to Jackson’s hometown, as she overshared in front of his housemates about her questionable history of acting petty. She once again told the story of the bridesmaids dress she cut up into pieces like it was some amusing anecdote and not a massive red flag. Yikes!

It looks like things are set to get even more tense between Olivia and Jackson in the coming episodes. Until then, let us relive the episode is tweets.

Last night’s first instalment of Married at First Sight’s Homestays Week recapped in tweets:

As the contestants regroup following Sunday’s hectic commitment ceremony, it’s time for Homestays Week! In the first instalment, Ella took Mitch to her home in Brighton to meet her family. Mitch was on his best behaviour and they got along swimmingly.

Another couple having a surprisingly cruisy week are Tamara and Brent. They decided to start afresh after Tamara voted leave, which I guess just means getting sloshed together and rocking up at Brent’s parents place hungover.

Meanwhile, Cody’s home tour for Selina did not go as easy, as his housemate left a disturbing poster on his (supposed?) friend’s wall and Selina was left generally disgusted by how Cody lives.

Dom took Jack to her family’s farm to meet her parents and Nonna. Dom’s dad John promptly showed Jack where he kills his sheep. Cool!

It’s a big Italian family affair as Jack invited his parents for a visit. The two families got along great and it was beyond wholesome.

It’s a whole other story between Olivia and Jackson. They got off on the wrong foot when Jackson introduced Olivia to his housemates and she decided to tell them about the time she cut up a bridesmaids dress, leaving Jackson’s friends low-key horrified.

Things are tense between the couple the following morning and the mood worsens when Jackson dared take Olivia to the gym, a place she detests. Thankfully, she took the high road and supported Jackson for doing what he loves. Jokes! She hated every minute of it and glared at Jackson the whole time.
