Breaking down backstage, she told cameras: "I'm not an over romantic person at all and anything over the top does put me off. I don't know how to react to that. The song is just a bit too much for me, too much too soon."

In tears, she continued: "I'm struggling a little bit, I can't lie. More than I thought. I can see why we've been matched I can. It's just not there."

However, the 31-year-old recruitment consultant didn't let it get her down, as she headed off on honeymoon with Dean. She did however, kindly tell her husband the singing was getting annoying - later revealing that she was feeling friend vibes.

Lats night, Dean also asked Sarah if she'd ever been with someone bigger, as she said she hadn't.

In tonight's episode, the pair went for an intimate dinner on the beach, and behind the scenes, one of the producers asked Sarah: "Is there anything that Dean could do to ever get a sexual spark?"

"Get some tattoos and lose some weight, maybe?" she replied to the producers, which left many fans outraged.

Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one fan penned: "What's Sarah's deal with Dean's weight? He's not very big. Get tattoos and lose weight?! Rude.

"Noooo pls tell me Sarah has not just said she’d fancy him if he lost weight n got tattoos.. on national television?? Girl are you okay ???" a second questioned.

"Now if Dean told Sarah to lose weight, the experts would step in," said a third.

Sarah later continued: "The longer the honeymoon has gone on for, the last couple of days there have been certain parts of his personality that are beginning to grate on me," before she debated being "completely honest" with him.

Things continued to spiral further towards the end of the episode as Dean continued to make more jokes, which Sarah said was "becoming an ick".

Opening up, Dean told Sarah he didn't want to get hurt, revealing that he found himself "going back to being that fat kid at school who didn't get the girls."

Cutting straight to the point, Dean asked if things would be different if he "wasn't as big" to which his bride responded: "Probably. I think there maybe would be more of that attraction and sexual chemistry.

"Sorry. I want to be open and transparent with you, I don't want to pretend," she said.

But will the two find a spark in the coming weeks?
