Married at First Sight UK's Polly Sellman had a very upfront response when asked about her husband Adam Nightingale 'not fancying her'.
Viewers will know all too well about the rocky road that has been Polly and Adam's relationship.
From the get-go, the groom has been very honest about the fact he doesn't find his wife sexually attractive - something that quite literally won't stop being brought up.

From previously admitting Polly was 'not what he expected' and being slammed for his 'vile' behaviour towards her with sofa critics getting 'the ick' over his 'shameful' reaction to another bride - it's clear Adam has had a pretty rough ride throughout the season.
And then things went to a whole new level in last Wednesday's episode when the physical attraction issue was brought up once again by the experts
MAFS UK viewers were seriously shocked after the experts - Paul C Brunson, Mel Schilling and Charlene Douglas - asked a very intimate question despite knowing his and Polly's history when it came to the bedroom which totally 'invalidated' his wishes.
Paul made the statement: "Let's just call it what it is, Polly you're physically attracted to your husband. Adam you're not physically attracted to your wife."
Cutting straight to the explicit question, Mel asked: "Do you wanna s**g her?"
Earlier this week, Adam also revealed that he and Polly had done the deed which left viewers feeling 'sick' over concerns he was 'pressured' into it.
Wednesday's episode (9 October) saw the pair sit down for a dinner and chat with their mates where the bride admitted they 'weren't where she wants to be sexually'.
Following her admission, Adam's pal Richard then started encouraging him to be more physically intimate.
The following day, however, the other couples noticed Adam and Polly to be extra giggly prompting Holly to pull Polly aside and ask what was happening.
"After yesterday, one thing led to another," Polly said. "Your girl got what she wanted."
Adam also confirmed the news saying: "I took a very big step forward. I need stop being stubborn, forget the whole type thing, and you've kind of just go with the flow. And if it works, it works. If it don't, it don't."
"It happened really naturally. It was great, and hopefully it just now continues, and it can only go further for him with the attraction," added Polly.
"For me, because I know how I feel about him, and I want it to go that way. I hope that it does."
And now the latest update in the saga sees Polly responding to the whole ordeal.
On an Instagram Q&A, someone asked the bride: "Is it hard being with someone you know doesn't fancy you?"
Polly firmly replied: "No because we're adults and we can see past exteriors and work on things we know have hope."
Married at First Sight UK airs every Monday to Thursday at 9.00pm on E4.
