Stranded On Honeymoon Island returned to our screens tonight and BBC viewers were totally perplexed by one couple.

Stranded On Honeymoon Island were left scratching their heads as they questioned if they had “missed something” after one couple appeared to already be on the rocks.

The new BBC series, fronted by Davina McCall, follows a group of single people who end up speed dating and, after just five minutes, have to pick their favourite person.

Shortly after, the singletons are paired up by a matchmaker, marry one another and then are left stranded on an island and have to live with the basics.

Last night, the show kicked off with a speed dating event where the singles, following five minutes of chat, are asked to select their favourites. The final couplings are then settled on by professional matchmakers. Viewers saw Sam, 30, married Hannah, 29, Helen, 35, married Abby, 32, while Moray, 28, married Mae, 30.

Now that the first three couples have wed, during tonight’s episode it’s the turn of the remaining pairs to get hitched.

However it was newlyweds Helen and Abby who had everyone talking as they are already showing cracks in their marriage.

Waking up together for the first time on the Island it was clear that Abby is already struggling with her new life on the deserted island.

While making breakfast, Helen went on to say: “Yesterday was, like, such a little dream bubble. And then overnight, and today, it’s like OK, this is reality.”

The new bride admitted: “Abby is struggling with this and I think it’s getting her a bit grouchy, it’s getting her a bit moany but it’s day one. So I don’t know; I don’t know if she’s going to stick this out.”

Turning to her new wife, Helen asked: “Do you think that you would struggle, like in this experience? Did you think that… Because last night was a lot.”

Opening up, Abby admitted: “Yes, it’s hard. I think for me I’m missing my family and I’m missing my friends. I’m definitely learning more things about myself even just from last night’s experience.”

Helen jumped in: “I feel like that is you, right? So it did kind of shock me this morning when you were like, ‘Oh I don’t know, like if I can do this.’

“You’re making me feel like… like can you?”

Abby explained: “No, I do feel like I can. I think I just needed a minute.”

The tension was palpable as a frosty Helen replied: “Sure. But it’s day one so, let’s see.”

Attempted to shift the mood, Abby confirmed: “Yeah, it is day one. You’ve been great, it’s nothing on you. It’s just me.. You know.. adjusting.”

Helen said: “I want to be there for you and I will be.” Abby added: Yeah, I know. I appreciate that.”

It didn’t take long for fans to rush straight to social media to share their reaction as they questioned how their relationship had shifted in just one day.

One fan wrote on X, formally known as Twitter: “#StrandedOnHoneymoonIsland What went on last night then between the two women? Did we miss something? Sure they were happy on last night’s ep.”

Another commented: “She’s only been there a f****** day!” A third said: “She’s only been there a b****** day #StrandedOnHoneymoonIsland.”

Stranded on Honeymoon Island airs on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday night at 9pm on BBC One and on the BBC iPlayer
