Married at First Sight Australia bride Jamie was reduced to tears following an argument with fellow couple Lauren and Clint.

The row took place during the final night of the Couples Retreat, which saw the group call out Lauren for her language used to describe Jamie following their argument the night before.

A war of words followed, and Jamie was left in tears after feeling like her friends – fellow brides Rhi and Carina – failed to stick up for her during the argument.

“It is so embarrassing,” a crying Jamie said in a piece to camera. “I’m sick to death of it. I’ve done this too many times. I’m so sick of being the bad guy and this and that because I speak up, I say things.”

She added of her friends’ supposed betrayal: “When it serves you well, when I’m yelling for you, then it’s okay, but where’s my defence?”

Lauren referred to Jamie as a “troll” when describing their prior argument, which prompted Jamie’s husband Dave to call out Lauren on the last night of the Couples Retreat and ask her to apologise for her words.

Lauren refused to apologise and claimed that Jamie was “screaming at her” and that she felt ambushed by her fellow brides during the previous night, adding that co-stars Carina and Rhi agreed with her.

Jamie was taken back by this revelation, having thought that Carina and Rhi were her friends and on her side.

“Allow everyone to have a voice – it’s a lot,” Carina said. “I’m not defending her, but I’m listening to this, and it’s making me sad.”

“This is where you’re having your empathy?” Jamie responded, shocked.

“I’m so hurt, I’m beyond hurt, where were my friends when I needed them?” she added in a separate piece to camera, admitting she was “devastated” by their actions.

Jamie then took herself away from the group alongside her husband Dave, and moments later, viewers saw Jamie break down in tears alone on camera.

“I really feel for Jamie,” one user posted on X, while another wrote: “absolutely love Jamie, broke me to see her crying.”

Not everyone agreed with Jamie’s viewpoint, though, with one fan tweeting: “With Jamie, theres sticking up for your mates and then theres getting involved in everyones drama ..her voice is heard all the time!”

It looks like the drama will continue into tomorrow night’s dinner party episode, with Jamie confronting Rhi and Carina over her hurt feelings at the table.
