Married At First Sight Australia groom Timothy Smith has been branded “rude” by his wife, Lucinda Light, who was left fuming following an Intimacy Week altercation.
After successfully overcoming the the threat of splitting during Monday night’s Commitment Ceremony, the couple appeared in good spirits as they prepared to spend the night together. The following morning, however, saw Timothy appear downbeat as he went to make breakfast.
“Are you okay with me? Did I do something to upset you? Did I do something to upset you?” asked Lucinda inquisitively. Timothy responded: “I know you want affection, but I’m just not there. It’s overwhelming and its making me feel under pressure.”

He continued: “I want to peel it back and hit the reset button. Maybe come to bed with a shirt on.” Taken aback, Lucinda hit out: “That was a bit rude, Tim.”
Addressing her hubby, the 43-year old continued: “I’m used to sleeping naked and I’ve worn my pyjamas the whole time but last night I decided because you had been for days, I decided to be topless which I am very comfortable with. I’m happy to pop my shirt on but I ask the same of you.” And in a sly dig she added: “It goes both ways… you’ve got boobs as well!”
Sympathising with the bride on X (formerly Twitter), one user wrote: “Seriously, why doesn’t Timothy just leave!? It’s NEVER going to work out with Lucinda so why prolong the agony??!” Another agreed: “Give up the ghost of Timothy, Lucinda, because he isn’t the man for you.. boobs out & still a no go! He’s not interested one tiny bit.. stop with the hanging on for dear life.. not happening today or any day!”

A third added: “Timothy’s behaviour is hostile, its a glimpse of how life would be, a caveman, he wants a beer on his own, a woman only when he’s in the mood, no aftercare roll over, don’t be there in the morning!” And a fourth penned: “Timothy, you’re just not into her!!! Face up to it. It’s pretty simple. Stop wasting her time.”
Timothy, 51, later explained to the cameras: “I don’t feel good. I don’t. I think she thought because we’re getting along so well, and because it’s intimacy week, let’s ramp it right up. And I climbed into bed. And she rolled over … and she said, ‘I hope you don’t mind, I don’t have a shirt on’.”

Later in the episode the pair sat down with Alessandra Rampolla in a bid to “jump start” their relationship. Alessandra suggested a hugging exercise, only for Timothy to admit he had “never been a hugger” largely due to the relationship with his dad would tell him to “go away”.
Alessandra explained that doing so with Lucinda would prove “comforting” and would enable them to get “in sync”. After toying with the idea, Timothy agreed and finally felt an “emotional breakthrough” as they embraced. Gazing into each other’s eyes afterwards, Lucinda admitted it was “sweet”, with Timothy adding he was “100 immersed” before admitting his guilt over his previous actions.
