Watch: Jake says one thing to producers and another to Ash as she confesses to telling Sierah about his derogatory comments
When Ashleigh came clean to Jake about revealing what he'd said at the Photo Ranking Challenge to Sierah, he had... let's just say, mixed reactions.
After the groom slated the other brides' appearances during the task – saying Jacqui had "crazy eyes" and Sierah looked like she could "stab you in your sleep," amongst other shocking comments – Ash knocked on Sierah's door and told her everything.
When she told her husband before the Commitment Ceremony, it was clear he was uncomfortable.
Watch the moment in the video above.
"Did you tell those girls what I said..." he asked, and she confirmed that she did.
Speaking to producers, Jake's mindset was clear: "I am shocked to hear my own wife is talking about me behind my back. I've been a bit fired up at the moment.
Ash told producers he was fuming at the betrayal. Nine
"I'm not someone who airs their dirty laundry around, and I wouldn't do that to her. She's broken my trust."
But when speaking to his wife, he had a very different reaction.
"I am regretting going in and talking to Sierah, and the way I've gone about it all..." Ashleigh told him, and instead of airing his feelings he said: "It's fine. No stress."
To his wife, he said: "We're all good, man!" Nine
He then smiled at his wife and said, "We're all good, man!"
They headed toward the Commitment Ceremony thinking the air was cleared... but was it?
At the Commitment Ceremony, it was a completely different story.
After being grilled by the experts and the rest of the room over his comments, it was time to vote leave or stay.
"I think trust is the biggest thing in a relationship, it's not something I expected from Ash to actually voice those things to other people," Jake said.
"I can't trust Ash right now, and for that I actually said leave."
Jack said Ash broke his trust. Nine
The experiment's rules are that when one writes 'stay' and one write 'leave' they stick around for another week, so a deflated Ash and Jake headed back to the group.
We'll have to wait and see if they can move past this major blip.
