MARRIED At First Sight brides Leigh and Leah ripped into each other on tonight’s vow renewal as their marriage came crashing down.
The couple have have repeatedly clashed over Leah’s flirty behaviour in the E4 experiment, leaving wife Leigh feeling insecure.
Leigh went first with her vows and admitted she valued her wife’s caring nature, positivity and attentiveness.
But things quickly turned when she admitted they struggled with “communication, trust and unwanted behavior” – including her joking about other women, which has resulted in her not letting her walls down.
But Leah interjected to say that she “disagreed” with her comment.
Leigh concluded: “True love should not take this much effort and force and for these reasons I’ve decided I no longer want to continue the marriage.”
It was then Leah’s turn and she also spoke about the qualities she admired in her wife – including Leigh’s communication and feeling of being safe.
“But we’ve also had friction, tension and doubt,” Leah said.
“Throughout this marriage it’s become clear that my trust around female friends has created real challenges between us.
“Your past hurt is often projected onto me and that’s something I can’t ignore.
“I’ve often felt I was being managed not met
“You’re quick to critique and I’ve often felt I was under scrutiny.
“One day you’re distance and guarded and the next day tactile. You say I’ve disrespected you, I’ve honestly protected you.
“Meanwhile I’ve felt blamed, judged and misunderstood.”
Leah added that she didn’t want to constantly feel like she’s on “trial”.
Leah then made the decision to also leave the marriage.
But her vows hit a nerve with Leigh, who was quick to hit out her wife for saying she felt “managed”.
A furious Leigh hit out: “For you to say that you felt managed throughout the whole…,” but Leah interjected: “I didn’t say throughout the whole, you add things in all the time.”
Leah continued: “Managed not met, sometimes I want to chat to you about certain things, I don’t feel like you’re meeting my energy.”
Leigh responded: “Don’t you feel that’s a bit insensitive, I just want to know the ins and outs of what happened, that’s an insecurity in me.”
Leah said: “You were on at me all the time. In a relationship, I need someone who is excited to see me and then asks the question.”
But Leigh said needed more reassurance and wanted support – saying: “I need to feel like me asking questions is not doing something wrong.”
But Leah continued to say that her “energy wasn’t met” and her wife was too much of a closed book.
Feeling hurt, Leigh insisted: “I have tried, you’re throwing it in my face and acting like I’ve not f****** tried.”
But Leah had little to say in response and bluntly added: “Have you got anything else to say?,” before walking off.
After the vows, Leigh said to the camera: “I’m shocked what Leah said, she’s said a load of stuff that she’s never said before.
“I wasn’t going to be happy if I was going to continue in this marriage.”
Meanwhile, Leah concluded: “The marriage was too much of a rollercoaster for me to sit on any longer.”
