During Wednesday night's episode of Married at First Sight: Unfiltered, Amani watched back a Season 11 clip in which Woody professed his love to her on Day 18 of marriage.
"I definitely do have love for you. I'm liking my wife. I love my wife," Woody told Amani in the clip.
"So hey, there ya go! I do love your ass. I've got love for you... I do really feel like I love my wife, man! I love the person that you are, which is crazy to say because I didn't know you weeks ago, but I'm ready to spill all my beans."
On Unfiltered, host Jamie Otis, who starred on Season 1 of Married at First Sight, asked Amani what she was thinking after Woody expressed his feelings to her.
"So that moment was so funny because you see, like, he didn't even say it at first and then it was, like, he said it but he didn't say it," Amani explained.
"I was like, 'Okay, so you love me?' Okay I'm just going to go with it, like, 'Okay, you love me.'"
Since Amani and Woody had only been married a little over two weeks at this point, Jamie asked Amani if she thought her husband said "I love you" too soon.
"No, I think that's his moment. I can't tell him when he should feel love for me," Amani replied.
"I'm excited that he's comfortable enough to share that, and I'm excited to go on that journey with him."

Amani's Married at First Sight co-star Olivia joined her on Unfiltered and was asked whether she's ever told a man that she loves him "too soon" -- or vice versa.
"I don't think there's ever a moment that is too soon or too late," Olivia acknowledged.
"I think, you know, watching Woody and Amani having this conversation, maybe Woody wasn't anticipating saying that he loves her -- maybe he was just saying 'I have love for her' -- but I think that's a raw, true moment, where he's like, 'Oh, I do love her!'"
"And so I don't think there's a timeline for saying it," Olivia continued. "'Oh, we've only been together three weeks or two weeks, it's too soon.' I think that's all a stigma, so I'm proud of Woody!"
Jamie agreed with Olivia and then put Amani back in the hotseat.
"Amani, are you starting to fall for Woody at this point?" Jamie questioned.
"Pastor Call has gotten me to realize that you don't fall into love, but I'm choosing to go with it with my husband all the way," Amani shared.
"So I'm hoping to finally get to a place where I can say 'I love you' back. I'm not there yet, but I'm on the way."

Despite his past of partying and being a bit of a player, Woody said during Married at First Sight's premiere episode he wanted to be a husband and only get married once. He finally felt ready for that phase of his life.
And Amani revealed on previous episodes of Unfiltered she believed Woody was "marriage material" from early on in their relationship and so she was able to warm up to him faster than with other men she's dated in the past.
Woody and Amani's relationship has only been progressing and getting stronger as Season 11 continues to unfold.
When Woody told his wife that he loved her, Amani responded with, "I can't say that I'm, like, in love with you. I think that I definitely like you and I feel myself growing towards being in love with you."
Amani admitted she was "stopping" herself from falling because she was scared of getting hurt again or Woody falling out of love with her.
Woody felt the need to remind Amani that he's different from men who had wronged her in her past, and he hoped Amani would give him a clean slate and not to bring the issues of prior relationships into their marriage.
Amani later surprised Woody with a beautiful dinner to show how much she liked and appreciated him, and Woody gushed how he was "definitely going to keep" his wife.
In the latest MAFS episode, the couple even discussed how they would like to raise their children since both Amani and Woody agreed they'd like to have kids.
