Married At First Sight’s Luke Worley was shown angrily hammering on Jordan Gayle’s front door in a tense preview clip aired at the end of Thursday’s episode.
Tensions have been on the rise between the sales executive, 30, and the personal trainer, 26, with Jordan recently being accused of being too vocal with his opinions.
In Thursday’s episode, Jordan and his wife Erica told Luke’s wife Jay about comments he had made at the couple’s retreat which they considered to be disrespectful.
Luke had asked the grooms if they would rob a bank if they knew they would get away with it, seemingly referring to cheating, after he argued with Jay over saying she wouldn’t care if he got a girl’s number on a night out.
Luke had to leave Thursday’s dinner party early due to feeling unwell and, in his absence, Erica and Jordan told Jay of his comments, before she briefly left in tears.

The couple then got into an argument over the comments, with Luke claiming they had been taken out of context and accusing people of trying to ruin his relationship.
Breaking down in tears, he said: ‘It’s the first chance somebody had to ruin it because I’m not there.’
And tensions look set to rise even further as a preview clip showed a fuming Luke storming up to Jordan and Erica’s front door in a rage.
Followed closely behind by Jay, he was shown angrily banging on their front door, with the couple inside looking shocked by the noise.
Although it did not show the row, it teased a confrontation between the pair, which comes ahead of Luke being booted off the show after punching Jordan.
After a physical fight in scenes yet to air, Channel 4 bosses had to eject the Essex salesman with immediate effect after he shocked both cast and crew with his aggressive behaviour.
The broadcaster, who has a zero tolerance against violence, had no option but to axe Luke, which also marked the end of his on-screen wife Jay time on the E4 series.
The news was revealed exclusively by MailOnline last week and Jordan has since taken to TikTok to address the incident.
Oh dear! Luke was shown angrily banging on their front door, with Jordan and Erica both looking surprised by the noise as they sat inside
He said: ‘There’s a lot to say, there’s a lot that goes down but you’re going to see all the drama unfold in front of your eyes over the next couple of weeks on your TV screens.
‘The time is not right to talk now, I don’t know who is leaking it to the press and I don’t know why they’re doing it, it’s got nothing to do with them.
‘So I do agree with Luke on that, even though we don’t agree on many things.
‘Whoever is doing it, just stop. Now, when the time is right I’ll be able to tell you everything that happened and why it happened – and what really went down.
‘Stay tuned, because there’s a lot to find out.’
Tensions have been rising between Luke and Jordan with the pair eventually coming to blows over their differences in shocking scenes that were caught on camera.
Jordan was allowed to stay on the show because Luke instigated the ruckus, which he later said he was ‘proud’ of despite it being a ‘controversial’ move.
A show insider told MailOnline: ‘Luke and Jordan struggled to get along from the moment they met, but no one was expecting them to clash like they eventually did.
‘The cast attend a couples’ retreat and during dinner things got particularly heated between them and later they come to blows inside Jordan’s apartment.
‘Channel 4 bosses had no choice but eject Luke from the programme, which consequently ended his wife Jay’s time in the process… as per the show’s rules you enter as a couple and leave as a couple.
‘The fight was caught on camera, meaning there’s every chance it could be shown in the most explosive scenes ever to be aired on Married At First Sight UK.’

Luke and Jay married after meeting for the first time at the altar and quickly became close, bonding over their shared humour.
They were one of the show’s happiest couples with Luke, who quit his well-paid job to be on Married At First Sight.
Speaking at the show’s launch last month, Luke revealed: ‘I did some really controversial things in there, really, really controversial but I’m proud of doing them.
‘I had to quit my job to do the show, and I was on good money, so I had to put a lot in to do this.’
