Beck complained that Jake ‘shoved his tongue down her throat’ and ‘treated her like an object’ while Jake said Beck had called him ‘boring’ and said he ‘sucked the life out of her’.
Things quickly became heated when Theresa slammed Jake for things he’d said to Beck during the commitment ceremonies, as well as his behaviour afterwards.
‘That’s a big red flag for me, I’m sorry. I’m hearing you’re going out with the boys. Has that destructive behaviour continued?’ Theresa asked angrily.

Ouch: Things quickly became heated when Theresa slammed Jake for things he’d said to Beck during the commitment ceremonies, as well as his behaviour afterwards.
Jake hit back, saying he ‘needed to get away’ and needed space from her, but Theresa raged again.
‘I’ve heard Beck say you don’t listen to her. You’re not listening to Beck personally. How much time have you two actually been spending together? You apologise to her and you don’t do it again,’ she snapped.
Jake said the complaints were ‘unwarranted’ while Beck insisted he ‘misses the words’ and doesn’t listen.
Lynne, Jake’s mother, rushed to his defence, saying: ‘That stunned me. Calling you boring? Saying you sucked the life from her? Like what is that? You categorised Jake and didn’t even give him an opportunity.

Help! Jake hit back, saying he ‘needed to get away’ and needed space from her, but Theresa raged again
‘That really hurt me. And seeing you sit there, it’s not the Jake I know. You look like you’ve had the life sucked out of you.’
The mothers then began arguing with one another, and Jake commented wryly, ‘It makes sense why Beck is they way she is. Chip off the old block’.
As the bickering went on, Jake said, ‘Can you imagine bringing those families together? It wouldn’t be a very nice Christmas dinner’.
Jake had enough, and with his relationship with Beck falling apart, he decided to quit.

He said: ‘The reality is, I can’t be around Beck and her rudeness. We just don’t work, it’s not going to work. I don’t want to be with someone like Beck and she doesn’t want to be with someone like me.
‘It’s just rudeness. It’s something I am not used to. I think she is a good person but she’s not for me. That’s why I’m out. Seriously, I am done.’
Beck insisted that she ‘wasn’t giving up’ and didn’t want to quit over ‘one fight’ but Jake had made up his mind.
He said: ‘The reality is, I cant be around Beck and her rudeness. We just don’t work, it’s not going to work. I don’t want to be with someone like Beck and she doesn’t want to be with someone like me’
‘I didn’t come on here to be sitting here right now, broken,’ Jake said sadly. ‘Trust me make, I want to be home, I miss my family,’ he said.
‘We want you home, we don’t like seeing you like this,’ Lynne said.
‘When my mum said I looked like I had the life sucked out of me, my mum knows me better than anyone, and for her to say that, yeah, I agree,’ Jake said.
‘This isn’t what I signed up for, I knew it was going to be tough, but my god. This is just not going to work, it’s too hard, and it’s worn me down now. I am completely done. I’m out,’ he concluded.
