Married At First Sight fans have been left unsatisfied over last night's episode after it failed to show Kwame Badu offering an explanation for the controversy that unfolded during the Home Stays.
The reality show saw Kasia and Kwame sit down for the last time with the show's panel of experts, while simultaneously reuniting for the first time after deciding to give up on their whirlwind marriage.
During the chat, the pair reflected on the Home Stays segment of the show which saw Kasia invite Kwame into her home.

Kasia accused Kwame of a complete 'lack of respect' during the visit, but Kwame responded to insist that he 'did nothing but praise [Kasia] not only as a queen, but as a business owner, as a Black woman – but most importantly as a mother'.
"And when I came to visit you at your home, something I repeatedly said was how proud I was of you, of what you’ve achieved. So me saying what I said, I’m sorry if I offended you, I apologise for that 100 percent," he added.
Kasia acknowledged and accepted the apology, but said while Kwame is 'good' at saying 'some nice things', those things aren't always 'put into practice'.
"Certain things I just can’t tolerate," she continued.

The couple then moved on to talking about whether there was a moment when they knew they were in love, but the shift in conversation surprised some viewers who felt there was unfinished business on the topic of the Home Stays.
Although Kwame was asked to visit Kasia at her home, the invite was not reciprocated. Neither of the pair offered an explanation for the apparent lack of hospitality, and now fans have been left wondering why Kwame wasn't asked to explain himself.
"Why didn't the experts ask Kwame why he didn't take Kasia to his home during the home stays?," one person wondered, while another tweeted: "Why was Kwame not pulled up about him not letting Kasia visit his home? It was pushed under the carpet. Rude #MarriedAtFirstSightuk."

Though Kwame didn't offer an answer on the show, he did address the matter in a recent interview with reprezentzradio, when he explained that he wanted to avoid exposing his home and his children to the entire world through the television screen.
"The whole context weren't shown in the episode,” he explained. "I have two children, two girls. We live in congested London. I don't want people to know. I wanted to keep that back. When I explained privacy and secrecy what I was explaining is for against the general public."
Kwame added that if seeing his home was 'really a determining factor' for his partner, then it was easy enough to hop in an Uber and go there.
