It seems not even their honeymoon in Jamaica improved things between them, with Caspar flat out admitting to Emma's face that he didn't find her attractive.
In the chat on Wednesday's episode of MAFS, he brutally put her down by telling her: "I've rarely gone for the curvier person," leaving his bride gobsmacked.
Sitting down the next morning after the argument to lay things out, things went from bad to worse with Caspar refusing to back down.
He told the cameras: "I didn't want to lie. I can't help not fancying her. It takes a lot of emotional energy, and it feels like me opening up and being honest has just led to pain."

Fighting back tears, Emma said: "It's a shame that I'm not attractive to the person I've married.
"He struggled so much to say that I looked beautiful last night, but actually I felt good. And I asked him, like, am I attractive? And he struggled to say yes."
Sitting down to talk one-on-one, Caspar said: "I felt terrible saying it, but it was the truth and the honesty that we also need to progress. If in two weeks time, I said, 'Yeah, I've just never really been feeling it', that lie there is a lot worse than the truth now, I would argue."
"Do you think you could have phrased it better without bringing f*****g size and shape into it?" Emma asks.

"I'm a size 14. I'm not f*****g monster."
While he initially agreed he could have phrased it better, Caspar then got on the defensive and said: "I've got enough in my life without having to be attacked in paradise."

He then turned to the cameras and said: "Right, I want to cut" before storming off.
Caspar later tells the camera: "I don't know if we can move past this. I want love, and it's nowhere f*****g close."
Caspar had previously said that Emma had reminded him of his sister, which also put him off being sexually attracted to her.
His comments towards her weight in the honeymoon argument caused fans to call for him to be axed.
Married at First Sight UK continues weeknights at 9pm on Channel 4.
