They were once one of the strongest couples in this year’s season of Married At First Sight.
But it seems there’s trouble in paradise for Josh Pihlak, 28, and Cathy Evans, 26, as new details about Sunday night’s commitment ceremony emerge.
Speaking to Monday’s TV Week magazine, Josh revealed that, after he told his ‘wife’ they were ‘just friends’ at the ceremony, Cathy ‘took off’ and ‘didn’t come home for the entire night.’

Josh claimed that neither he nor the show’s producers had any idea where his ‘wife’ was.
‘When it gets to 2am and you’re not home, where are you? You could be dead in the gutter,’ the industrial operator said.
When Cathy finally returned home, Josh lashed out by accusing her of ‘acting like a b**ch’ because she was giving him the cold shoulder.

The clash is said to play out on Monday night’s episode.
Cracks began showing in Cathy and Josh’s relationship when Cathy accused her ‘husband’ of flirting with Hayley Vernon.
‘Josh has said to me that, ‘if you have trust issues with me, I will write ‘Leave’ because I cannot be with a girl who has trust issues’, and it broke my heart that he said that,’ Cathy tearfully said during a commitment ceremony.

Things got worse when Josh’s mother Mandy, issued Cathy a chilling warning about giving her ‘husband’ the silent treatment.
‘Don’t ever ignore my son again,’ she told Cathy during a tense showdown.
At Sunday night’s commitment ceremony, Cathy’s romance with Josh hit another snag apart when he suggested they might be better off friends.

‘I’m worried that we’re going to be just friends next week, and that’s all it is going to be. I don’t want to be negative, but there’s a difference between what you want and what you feel. I have doubts, ‘ said Josh, leaving Cathy blindsided.
She responded: ‘I actually walked into this commitment ceremony quite confident. I’ve tried not to think about too much of the future because it is quite overwhelming.
‘But then I feel pressured to feel a romantic feeling in quite a short amount of time. You’ve given me an ultimatum by next week, and now I’m like, ‘Oh s**t”.
