When setting up a clip of Christina and Henry from the show, Jamie teased, "It's normal to drop subtle hints here or there when you want your partner to make a move, but in Christina's case, she said it loud and clear."
Amani and Olivia cracked up laughing, and the group watched back a Season 11 clip in which Henry admitted to Christina that he was moving at a slower-than-average pace in their relationship.

"If there's not an aggressor, it seems like it's just going to move at such a slow pace. But maybe I'll get out of my comfort zone, or you will, and just make a move or something," Christina tells Henry in the clip.
Christina then vents in a confessional, "My god, make a move already! Could I be any more clear?!"
Olivia admitted she thought the clip was "funny."
"To hear that she's ready for him to make a move at the honeymoon, kudos to her," Olivia said on Unfiltered. "By looking at Henry, I don't think he's anywhere ready to do that, but we'll see what happens."
Amani, however, pointed out that Christina may not have been talking about consummating her marriage.

At this point in the experiment, Henry and Christina had seemingly only kissed a couple of times on their wedding day when pressured to show affection at the altar or pose for wedding photos.
"It seems she just wanted, like, some type of move," Amani said of Christina.

"Yeah, it almost seemed like she just wanted some sort of reassurance that maybe he's into her -- and maybe she's getting the vibe that he's not," Jamie reasoned.
Olivia replied, "Yeah," and Amani also nodded her head in agreeance.

Given Bennett was the only man on Unfiltered, Jamie asked him how he would've reacted had his wife Amelia Fatsi pushed for him to make a move during the honeymoon.
"I don't know! You know, this whole situation is crazy," Bennett acknowledged.
"If I were feeling that kind of attraction and energy towards her, I would, like, totally take that cue and roll with it. But I think it depends on how the person who's being talked to is feeling, you know?"
Jamie then dove a little deeper and asked Amani and Olivia about intimacy in their relationships with Woody Randall and Brett, respectively.
"If your husbands weren't making moves on you, how would it make you feel?" Jamie asked.

"I think if Woody wasn't making a move, I would feel like he wasn't attracted to me," Amani admitted. "But I would first ask him and not just assume his lack of effort means that he's not interested."
Olivia agreed, saying she would feel similar to what Amani had shared.
"I would feel like... maybe he wasn't attracted, but just ask!" Olivia said. "You know, we're in a unique situation where you can ask really anything and [the spouse] isn't going anywhere."
"So just ask and make him feel uncomfortable," Olivia added with a laugh. "Ask the hard questions!"

Christina and Henry's relationship got off to a rough start on Season 11 of Married at First Sight.
Christina, an outgoing and adventurous traveler, was matched to wed Henry, a quiet and reserved gentleman who had never left the United States, by MAFS experts Dr. Pepper Schwartz, Dr. Viviana Coles and Pastor Calvin Roberson.
The complete opposites had a bit of an awkward wedding night in trying to force a connection, and Christina and Henry's honeymoon didn't appear to improve their relationship. Although they enjoyed a few fun activities together, Christina basically begged Henry to talk to her, open up and initiate physical touch.
When Christina was asked to rate her marriage on a scale from 1-10, she gave it a six, and Henry has complained on the show Christina was very "impatient," "high maintenance," and sometimes rude to the Married at First Sight production team.
When the pair met with Pastor Cal in the latest episode, Henry admitted his past relationships moved faster because "a certain type of chemistry just existed."
"What is keeping you from creating that chemistry? Because I believe that if you made the move, she would respond," Pastor Cal told Henry.

"I don't know. I think physically I do find [Christina] attractive, but I feel it is very much like a friendship vibe," Henry responded. "I don't know [why]."
Pastor Cal explained to Henry that he needed a partner who could bring things out of him that he may not be accustomed to. Pastor Cal said Christina has some "fire in her gut" and "a little diva to her" as well as some "sass" that could be good for Henry.
