Austin, however, told his wife their love would grow organically and he'd profess his feelings when "it feels right."
"Jessica, when you asked Austin if he'd be the first person to say 'I love you' in your relationship, you did not look happy with his answer. What were you hoping to hear?" Unfiltered host Jamie Otis asked.
"Umm, yeah, I mean, I still feel like [Austin] will probably be the first one to say it," Jessica proudly stated.
"I think that he is someone who is more in check with his feelings and emotions, and I usually put up a lot more walls. So, I kind of feel like it's going to be him that says it first."
Jamie pointed out that by looking at Jessica's eyes in that MAFS footage, it appeared she was already in love with Austin a few weeks into their marriage.
"[I'm] throwing it out there! The way you looked up at him! 'I think you'll be the first person to say I love you,'" Jamie playfully mocked Jessica while batting her eyes.
"I mean, if he wants to say it, I might say it back! Jessica admitted.
Jamie therefore asked Jessica if she loved Austin and wanted to say "I love you" but was holding back.
"I think that I'm definitely growing those feelings," Jessica shared. "I'm getting to that point."

"Whoa!" Jamie exclaimed, before Married at First Sight expert Dr. Viviana Coles pointed out on Unfiltered, "That's so cute."
Jamie then asked Jessica how she was feeling on a scale from 1-10 about Austin, with one being "not in love" and 10 being totally "smitten."
Jessica dodged the question and just said, "I am pretty happy with Austin."
"That's not a number, Jessica!" Jamie pushed with a big smile.
"I'm not going to give you a number," Jessica replied.
"Why?!" Jamie asked in shock with her mouth wide open.
"I mean, I think it's pretty obvious -- I'm at, like, a 10," Jessica confessed. "I do really like him."
Taylor Dunklin also joined Jessica on Unfiltered, and all the girls swooned over Jessica's reaction to the conversation.

Jamie picked Viviana's brain on why Jessica seemed to feel the need to hear Austin say, "I love you" first, as if the man must say it first in a relationship.
"I don't know what that's about!" Viviana said. "We are modern women. If you have feelings, you share them! Because if not, it could be too late."
Jamie, however, said, "So far so good," and Viviana agreed Jessica and Austin were "still learning so much about each other" at this point in the extreme experiment.

"I have learned not to predict anything," Viviana joked.
"It is early on," Jessica acknowledged.
"Not that it won't work out!" Viviana clarified to Jessica. "I don't want to put that out there. I'm just saying!"
"Yeah, come on, Dr. Viviana!" Jamie joked as all the girls laughed.
Jessica and Austin, who are both quirky and want to start a family in the near future, seemingly have the strongest and most stable relationship on Married at First Sight's tenth season. In fact, the pair actually tone down their affection for each other when in the presence of the other struggling couples.
Jessica and Austin consummated their marriage early into their honeymoon in Panama and have succeeded in navigating daily life together. Austin, for example, cooks and cleans the apartment when Jessica works late.
At this point, it appears Jessica and Austin have no hurdles to overcome other than falling in love with each other.
Married at First Sight, which currently airs Wednesday nights at 8PM ET/PT on Lifetime, also stars Taylor's husband Brandon Reid, Katie Conrad and Derek Sherman, Mindy Shiben and Zach Justice, and Meka Jones and Michael Watson.
