During the wedding, fans were shocked when he referred to her children as "all that s***" as he said he could overlook it if he liked her. Tensions grew as the two clashed during their honeymoon. Their problems didn't stop there as Alex continued to accuse her of 'betraying' him by talking about him to the other contestants. He claimed there was an "assassination of character" at work when discussing her.

He also claimed she only 'acted up' in front of cameras but the recent episode saw her admit she was "intimidated" by him and his facial expressions. During the commitment ceremony, Alex claimed he "can't help" his facial expressions but Mel Schilling stopped him to say: "You can help your facial expression, that's behaviour."

"It's just my face, it just does what it does," Alex claimed before Mel said: "Alex, you do it! Your brain controls you face and I do wonder if this could be one of the missing pieces for you. Not being aware of the nonverbal communication that comes across. You might not be aware of this but only 7% of your communication is the words, 93% comes across across non-verbally."

Meanwhile, back on his Instagram, Alex said he searched up the word 'narcissistic' when people kept referring to him as it. "I didn't even know what this word was until people kept sliding in my message requests calling me it," he wrote. " "From that description above, is being a narcissist really such a bad thing? I love me and I love being me & wtf. My does revolve around me....Sorry if that upsets you babes lol."

"Don't call me a narcissist because I won't be offended. You gotta get a dictionary and find a new lil word."
