Married at First Sight star Iris Caldwell is opening up about her frustration with Keith Manley and his friends over the fact they had welcomed themselves to her lemonade that was off limits during a house party.

However, at one point in the night, Keith's friends went into the refrigerator, grabbed a jug of lemonade, and apparently drank the whole thing.
Iris instantly got angry and scolded Keith's friends, saying they were only allowed two drinks each -- a comment his friends scoffed at. Keith didn't understand why Iris had gotten so upset, but they hashed things out later on.
"I think [Keith] handled [the situation] okay, but I don't think he really took my concerns seriously. I don't think he ever did," Iris said during a Wednesday appearance on Married at First Sight: Unfiltered.
"He was very much the same way [as his friends], like, 'Okay, it's just juice.' And it is just juice, but that's not the whole topic of our discussion right now."
Iris explained, "It's respect. It's respect of your friends actually understanding where the boundaries are in our household."
In the heat of the moment, Iris said Keith didn't realize how upset she was over his friends' behavior.
Iris said on Unfiltered that Keith thought she was just "hangry" because she hadn't eaten yet that night, but she claimed to have told Keith, "There's a little bit more I'm upset about right now, and I think we need to have a conversation about it."'

Iris was also joined by her Season 9 Married at First Sight co-stars Amber Bowles and Jamie Thompson -- who wed Matthew Gwynne and Elizabeth Bice, respectively, on the show -- on the Unfiltered broadcast.
When Amber was asked to express her standpoint on the Iris and Keith disagreement, Amber replied, "For me, I would've just handled it after. I would've addressed it after."

"In the moment, I wouldn't have been like, 'Two drink limit.' I would've just been like, 'Hey Keith, it's really not cool that your friends [went through our stuff]. Just make sure they respect my boundaries, because that is disrespectful to me,'" Amber explained.
"I probably would've handled it after because there's no good that can be had [during the party]."
Jamie agreed with Amber and then suggested Iris could have taken another course of action as well to avoid an awkward or ruined night.
"Yeah, I would say [do it] after, or maybe just pull him aside and be like, 'I appreciate the fact this is how you live, but I don't live the same way, so let's just try to set some rules,'" Jamie reasoned.
Married at First Sight: Unfiltered host Jamie Otis added that Iris' outburst seemed to be "a control thing."
"Yeah," Iris agreed.
Iris and Keith, however, ended the night on good terms and their marriage has been progressing smoothly on the new Married at First Sight season, which also stars Deonna McNeill and Gregory Okotie.
Earlier in the Unfiltered broadcast, Amber had also revealed she wasn't sure whether Matt was truly ready for what he had signed up for on Married at First Sight's ninth season.

"I'm just feeling like Matt's biggest concern right now is Matt and what he needs to do in his life. And that's fine, but he probably shouldn't have done this if he wasn't ready for forever."
