MKR 2017: What did Josh just say?

The Super Dinner Parties special promises to feature tears, break-ups and walk-outs. Vision: My Kitchen Rules, Channel Seven.

While Channel 7 has promised the "super dinner parties" will showcase some excellent cooking, it also appears the verbal tiffs between the contestants is about to head into overdrive. 

Promos for Wednesday night's episode show Amy and Tyson serving up food at their instant restaurant. 

"Here you are, seafood king," Amy says as she delivers Josh's meal. 

"Thanks slut," he fires back.

Manu Feildel's jaw, understandably, hits the floor. 

"Can I speak to both of you?" he asks as he pulls WA couple Josh and Amy aside. "I, personally, felt uncomfortable at this table the whole night."

The judges and fellow contestants aren't the only ones angry at Josh. His partner Amy is later shown storming off into the night, with Channel 7 describing the drama as a "break-up". 

"Babe, we can make it work, trust me," Josh says as he chases after her. 

Whether or not the episode does culminate in a break-up remains to be seen. However, Josh and Amy have gone into hiding not long after MKR went to air and are not participating in media opportunities.  

Melbourne small business owner and former vegan Court previously hinted at Josh's potty-mouthed outburst when she suggested her feud with the seafood king was only just getting started

"We just fight for the rest of the season," she said at the time. "My husband, because he's so calm, kept telling me to tap out – that it's getting ridiculous. But I don't take any shit." 

Queensland contestant Della, meanwhile, told Fairfax Media she wasn't at all surprised to see Josh had been painted as a villain. 

"When the camera is on Josh, you could see him getting off on it and giving the producers what they want," she said. "But Amy isn't like that. I found it really difficult [to watch], but we all have flaws."

My Kitchen Rules is currently locked in a ratings war with Channel 9's Married At First Sight, with the experimental dating show managing to knock MKR off its perch as the highest-rating television show in metropolitan areas several times over the past few weeks.
