Married At First Sight bride Lucinda Light has reflected on the history of her relationship and spoken about what she wants in a partner in resurfaced pictures.
The bride, 43, has become a fan favorite on the Channel Nine reality show as viewers have watched her navigate her relationship with boyfriend Timothy Smith.
The couple have had issues with intimacy due to Tim’s “slow” attitude, and the other couples have shared their doubts, despite Lucinda insisting they were taking positive steps.
And Lucinda’s audition tape for the show has now resurfaced, showing her discussing what she wants in an ideal partner while listing her non-negotiables.
She told experts that she had been single for four years, except for a brief relationship with a woman, and spoke of not being interested in anyone who was “mediocre.”
Married At First Sight bride Lucinda Light has reflected on the history of her relationship and spoken about what she wants in a partner in footage resurfaced from her audition tape.
Lucinda explained that she wanted a “big, beefy” character who was “quite intelligent” and on her own “passion path”, before gushing about her own love of adventure.
‘I actually dated a woman for the first time last year, but I’ve also been single for four years. At that moment I realized that I’m actually pretty straight,” she said.
‘I want an absolute character, I’m not really interested in mediocre ones. Let’s talk about what I want: I love a big character over 6’1, I want someone who’s pretty smart, I don’t want a bogan.’
Of her ideal man, she continued: “I feel like he’s pretty evolved, you know, just in knowing himself.” He has emerged, he has investigated himself, he is on the path of his passion. He has to be someone who beats his own drum: he has to deal with me!
‘I’m very fun, I love adventure, I love adventure, I love the dance floor, I love Burning Man and I love to travel. Just bringing out the best in people.’
Lucinda insisted that she was not willing to compromise on what she wanted in a partner and said she would rather be single than do so.
The bride, 43, has become a fan favorite on the Channel Nine reality show as viewers have watched her navigate her relationship with boyfriend Timothy Smith.
“I’m just not willing to accept less, I love being single, I do, and I’d rather do that than be with less,” she said.
After the audition tape resurfaced on social media, fans quickly took to the comments section to claim that the experts had not “heard” Lucinda’s requests.
Lucinda and Tim have had an up-and-down journey in the dating experiment so far, as Tim has struggled with his more “adventurous” spirit while Lucinda admitted she hasn’t felt “desired” by her partner.
Arguing that the show didn’t fulfill her wishes in her pairing with Tim, fans said, “She definitely didn’t get what she asked for”;
“I’m not sure I could have been much clearer.” ‘I just want Lucinda to have the whole world’;
‘She is my absolute favorite. No shade on Tim, but what were they thinking? She needs an evolved soul. She gives a lot and she deserves someone just as much.’
In recent scenes, Tim confronted fellow boyfriend Jayden Eynaud over his apparent lack of effort with Lucinda as the couple struggled with intimacy.
Tim became enraged when Jayden, 27, didn’t shy away from giving his honest opinions, starting a vicious fight that ended with Tim slamming the table.
On her audition tape, Lucinda said she had been single for four years, apart from a brief relationship with a woman, and insisted she was not interested in anyone ‘mediocre’.
Lucinda insisted she was unwilling to compromise on what she wants in a partner and said she would rather be single than do so, with fans arguing her requests went unheard.
After seeing Jayden pull Lucinda aside to make his feelings clear, Tim became enraged: ‘He pushes Lucinda aside like he’s the wise one. Fuck off! Every guy with a bun on this show thinks he’s Dr. Phil and Tony Robbins all rolled into one.
He continued: ‘The side of Jayden’s face and his bun drive me crazy. This 27-year-old know-it-all from the Gold Coast just sits there in his red jacket and thinks he’s the be-all and end-all.
Tim also became enraged that someone under 30 gave him advice and became even angrier in the middle of the argument, leaving the table in shock.
Tim told producers: “I just don’t want kids under 30 criticizing me about relationships and life, I just think they should shut up.”
The row began when Jayden questioned Tim and Lucinda’s relationship due to their lack of intimacy, despite the couple insisting they had taken positive steps.
Speaking to the camera, Jayden said: “(Lucinda) got her hopes up, I can see what’s really going on in the relationship – she likes him and sees a future with him, and he doesn’t.”
At the table, Jayden questioned Lucinda: ‘Are you disappointed that there hasn’t been any romantic connection in six weeks?’
To which she responded, ‘At this point, I’ve abandoned expectations,’ while Tim started talking ‘bullshit’ at Jayden’s comments.

When Tim was asked why he was still in the experiment, Lucinda defended him by saying, “I don’t think Tim would be here if he didn’t have hope.”
Jayden argued, “This relationship has gone nowhere since day one,” but an angry Tim responded, “You’re completely wrong, 100 percent wrong!”
Jayden asked, “We just want to know if you see a long-term future with Lucinda.”
Tim said: “You’re 27, you have nothing to say to me,” while Jayden said of his relationship with Eden Harper: “I’m 27 and my relationship is almost perfect.”
Then Tim became angry: ‘You have nothing in life! You are a great fighter, you always have been from day one.
Tim then slammed the table in anger, sending Lauren Dunn’s wine flying as the group reacted in shock.
Defending her boyfriend, Lucinda calmly said: “I would just like to say, I say this with all my heart, Tim is an amazing person.”

“We have been the most difficult couple and I hope that when they hear us say that we have had a change, they can trust us,” he added.
After the explosion, Lucinda admitted that she hadn’t liked how angry Tim had gotten and how he had slammed the table, and she told him so.
She said: ‘I have a little complaint with you, I just don’t think this is necessary (…) it’s below the belt, you’re better than that, I don’t like it, I’m just letting you know.
While Tim responded: “There’s no one who can talk to me like that and get away with it, but you can.” I have nothing but respect for you tonight. You are solid as a rock.
Married At First Sight continues Sunday at 7pm on Channel Nine.
