The end of this year’s Married At First Sight is edging ever closer, with only five couples left in the experiment, but that doesn’t mean that the drama is showing any signs of slowing down.
Things recently kicked off between Sacha Jones and Luke Debono when she admitted that she and her husband Ross McCarthy had written the anonymous letter that criticised Luke for comments he’d made about Lacey Martin earlier in the week and how he’d spoken to his wife Amy Kenyon.
Some MAFS UK 2024 fans took to social media to call out Sacha for her apparent double standards following the row, with one writing, ‘Sacha saying Luke is too focused on what’s going on in other people's relationships is the pot calling the kettle black because so has she.’
But, in the wake of all the drama, Luke’s wife Amy has spoken out to defend Sacha. The wedding planner turned reality star insisted that Sacha‘s feelings were valid and claimed that some scenes had been left out of the final edit.
Amy opened up when one of her Instagram followers asked, ‘Don’t you feel that Luke’s words were twisted after watching the episode?’
She replied, ‘I don’t think they were purposely twisted out of malice by Lacey but it definitely got lost in communication and I’m sorry to Luke it happened that way.
‘I don’t think however feel the comments towards @sachajones are fair this evening as a lot of this scene and previous things haven’t actually been aired and I believe she had right to feel that way due to a huge build up of things from when we entered the experiment.’
Amy added that Sacha and Luke have squashed their beef since filming and are now friends and that Sacha didn’t deserve the negative comments being made about her online.
She continued, ‘Sacha is an amazing, supportive wife and fiercely loyal friend to everyone. The effort and love she put into her and Ross’ relationship were absolutely out of this world.
‘Remember this was filmed months ago and Sacha and Luke are actually friends. Nobody deserves nasty comments online.’
