Married At First Sight UK Season 10 Episode 20: Maeve and Joe get into an argument after his return

The latest Married At First Sight UK episode featured a conversation between Maeve and Joe. The two met at an outside venue. Before Maeve's arrival, Joe talked to the cameras about his absence.

He noted that having spent some time away from Maeve had helped him get clarity on the situation. He noted that he was "laid back" when it came to disagreements between the two.

"I think we need to openly discuss these problems rather than just sort of beating around the bush," confessed Joe.

Married At First Sight UK star Joe noted that he respected and cared for Maeve. He added that he wanted to work out whether they were moving forward in their relationship.

Soon, Maeve arrived. She talked about the dinner party which was scheduled for that night. She asked Joe if he was going to attend. He told her about a family member's funeral and that he would have to leave. When he noted that he felt guilty for leaving her there alone, Maeve told him that it was a "completely different" thing.

"Of course, you need to do that," replied Maeve.

Joe apologized for leaving and told her that he needed the time away. She recalled the time when he left and she wasn't kept in the loop. Joe shared the "doubts" he felt and told her about them.

When he talked about wanting to do more stuff together, Married At First Sight UK star Maeve replied that he should tell her about such things. He said he was telling her that just then.

The two got into an argument while discussing the topic.

"You've not been here though! F*cking eye roll at us all you like. Do you know what it is?" asked Maeve

Joe noted that he was not asking to do stuff and going places every single day. He noted that he meant once or twice a week. Maeve repeated that he hadn't been there:

"You haven't f*cking been here! F*ck you. We've not...you've not been..."

Listening to Maeve, Joe asked her why she was saying "f*ck you." Maeve responded that he couldn't blame it all on her. She asked him where they would go from that point. Joe responded that he didn't have a "definitive" answer as to what was going on.

As Joe shared that he didn't have a definite answer, Maeve asked him to say if he was not coming back. Joe responded that he had every intention of coming back.
