Surrounded by glamorously dressed couples and singletons, Sharmayne, 26, admits to her husband Jamie, 29, that it's all a bit too much.
She tells him: "I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed."
He responds: "Do you want to take a little break?"
The pair head outside for some fresh air and Sharmayne immediately becomes tearful.
She says: "I just feel overwhelmed. It's just a bit much for me, the whole situation."
Showing compassion, Jamie reassures her: "We're not obligated to do anything. This is our journey."
Sharmayne continues: "I'm just uncomfortable."
Their Open House future is left hanging in the balance with Jamie asking: "Where do we go from here?"
Confused Sharmayne says: "I don't know if I'm going to be able to hold myself together now.
"I really don't want to do it. I just want to go home."
Overwhelmed husband wipes away tears after partner romps with another woman in Open House
Her reaction to the unconventional world of swinging isn't unusual on the show. Often one or both parties in a relationship are left grappling with their emotions as their significant other hooks up with third parties.
Last week, non-monogamy expert Effy Blue suggested couple Tom and Lauren get intimate with other people.
After returning to their room, Lauren told Tom: "Don't be nervous.
"You absolutely got this."
Lauren admitted it was her idea to take part on the show - saying she felt like they had been "thrown in at the deep end".
She told the camera: "But to be able to have him to have the confidence that we can go off, have our fun, come back to each other at the end of the night and it's absolutely insane."
Things got too intense for Tom, who retreated to the bathroom to be sick.
The narrator then said: "But the thought of flying solo entirely naked isn't sitting well with Tom."

Tom could be heard vomiting in the toilet and looked distressed.
He confessed: "This is going to be horrible,' to which Lauren replied: "I just want to cuddle you."
Tom added: "I feel absolutely petrified and sick."
The week before, there were more tears when couple Alana and Alex had a threesome with another woman called Georgie.
After the deed was done, Alex struggled with how intense Georgie and Alana's connection had been.
He could be seen silently crying in bed as his girlfriend fell asleep.
Open House continues tomorrow night on Channel 4 at 10pm

'I'm part of British royal family after Queen's secret marriage and love child'
Queen Victoria had a secret lovechild with her manservant, a new documentary claims. Here a woman, who believes she's a descendent of the royal, speaks out Queen Victoria and John Brown were not only secretly married, they had a love child, a new documentary will claim. Historian Dr Fern Riddell believes she has found proof that the monarch and her manservant were deeply in love – and that the Queen gave birth to her tenth child, a girl called Mary-Anne, whose father was John. "I believe Victoria and John were madly in love. I believe I've found evidence that they got married, and I really do believe there's a strong possibility they may have had a child together," she says. TV lawyer Rob Rinder, who appears in the documentary to cast his sceptical eye over her findings, says: "Big claims. If you're right, that changes our understanding of history." In her new book, Victoria's Secret, Riddell reveals that she has located a direct descendent of Mary-Anne _ Angela Webb, who lives in Minnesota, USA. John Brown was her grandfather's great uncle and she grew up knowing all the stories about her family coming from an illegitimate branch of British royalty – but never thinking it could be proved. She shows off a basket of heirlooms in the Channel 4 programme and explains: "They were originally Queen Victoria and John Brown's and have made their way to me. There are books, there's jewellery, there's documents. "This brooch was commissioned by Queen Victoria. It says March 29, 1896. It does have a lock of hair in the back as well. "This is a handwritten note from Victoria. It has the royal seal. It says to place a wreath and flowers in dear John Brown's room on his bed on the 27th, which would have been the anniversary of his passing." Angela says the story she grew up with is that John Brown was far more than a close companion of Queen Victoria's. She says: "We were told there was a romantic relationship, that there was a long boat journey and there was a baby, Mary-Anne, that was Queen Victoria's and John Brown's – and my family has descended from that baby." Dr Fern says that the secret Brown family archive that she has unearthed proves beyond all doubt that the pair were lovers – and had a baby girl who was given to John's brother Hugh to bring up with his wife Jessie. The couple, who were childless, then moved to New Zealand with the baby, and it helped to avoid a scandal. But later it's said that Queen Victoria begged them to return to Scotland with the child – and they did. In the film, Dr Fern says that the end of Victoria's marriage to Prince Albert had been an unhappy time. Victoria had struggled through her nine pregnancies and suffered from post-natal depression, plus symptoms including hallucinations that may have been mistaken for the madness that had afflicted King George. She says doctors had warned against any further pregnancies, meaning the couple would have had to practice celibacy. "So in her late 30s, she is told to no longer have a sexual connection with her husband. It's going to cause a real issue in their marriage for her." Dr Fern believes the Queen always had a strong sex drive. "She was sensual, she adored physical pleasure." One example of this is a young Victoria writing that she had been riding in the rain with Albert, who was wearing "tight white cashmere pantaloons" and noting that he had on "nothing under them", which she had also underlined. Fern says that she can understand why Victoria would have been drawn to John Brown at this time, because he was young and handsome and dashing. She explains: "When you look at this, you can see why Queen Victoria is irresistibly drawn to him." When her marriage to Albert becomes strained, the couple spent more time in Scotland at Balmoral, where John would have spent much time with Victoria. "This allows a space for a wounded Queen to indulge in a flirtation with a strong, sexy young man," Dr Fern says. There are many examples of love letters, unearthed from the Brown family archive, including one that the monarch wrote to John's brother Hugh in 1886, to let him know how she felt about his brother. It says: "I took and held his dear kind hand. I told him no one loved him more than I did. And he answered, nor you than me, no one loves you more." In one Christmas card she tells her lover: "My lips may give a message better of Christmas love than even my letter." And in case that wasn't clear enough, another says: "I have loved thee with an everlasting love." Rinder agrees this could only mean they had a "deep, meaningful and enduring" love affair. But the affair was hushed up, and so too was the pregnancy, Dr Fern believes, which happened when the Queen was in mourning over Prince Albert and out of public life. She finds evidence to suggest that Victoria and John were secretly married and declares: "I think there was a surprise baby, spirited away to New Zealand. Then, once Victoria and John had committed to one another, they decided to bring Hugh and Jessie and Mary-Anne home." Angela was "flabbergasted" when Dr Fern contacted her to ask questions about her ancestry. She believes she can "see myself" in pictures of Queen Victoria and is now keen to do a DNA test. She says: "I'd love to be able to prove that they had a really beautiful love story. I'd love to be able to say this was a legitimate part of John Brown's life - that he was her second greatest love." But the American admits: "If it's proven that I am a descendent of Queen Victoria, I'm not sure how I'll feel."

Channel 4 fans can now binge 10 episodes of 'adrenaline rush' Belgian thriller
It's not hard to imagine there's inherent drama that comes with being a member of a firefighting crew. The huge popularity of Chicago Fire in the US (as well as every other show under the Chicago umbrella) shows the appetite for watching the fictive emergency services at work. And if that sounds to your fancy, then Channel 4's latest Belgian acquisition might be as well. The ten-parter Under Fire was added to the free streamer this week and promises a 'thrilling' ride. So what exactly is it about? At East Bank Station, a close-knit crew of firefighters are trying to balance their high-stress jobs with the chaos of their personal lives. The motley crew, based in Ostend, Belgium, is headed up by one Lieutenant Patrick Sinnaeve (Sam Louwyck) and counts Orlando Foncke (Louis Talpe) as the bravest in the squad. There is no burning building he won't charge straight towards. But behind the scenes Orlando is a mess. And even in front of the scenes, he's prone to bending the rules in a way that definitely goes against firefighter protocol. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video With bad boy behaviour prevalent across the squad, things go topsy-turvy when a deadly mishap puts the headstrong bunch in the firing line – so now they're fighting fires on the street and in their office. To save their cherished fire station, Sinnaeve is forced to take a desk job and put his team in the hands of the new Lieutenant Dominique Meersman (Lien De Grave). In part because she's a woman, the appointment does not go down a treat in the macho blokey-bloke ethos of the station. Dramatic and heart-pumping visuals abound as the team faces major internal changes, all while fighting to save lives on the job. The show dropped on Netflix in 2022, but is now available to stream for free on Channel 4 as part of the platform's Walter Presents offshoot. Walter Presenters launched back in 2016, it is an on-demand platform with a selection of award-winning foreign-language dramas, hand-picked by Walter Iuzzolino. The Shadow . This haunting crime drama follows a young journalist called Norah (Deleila Piasko) on assignment.

Many reviews of Under Fire, or Onder Vuur in Belgian, have remarked on the authentic nature of the actions sequences. More Trending A review in Midgard Times gushed: 'There are some scenes in the series, like rescuing the people stuck in a hot balloon that appear to be so real. The audience will be able to feel the adrenaline rush.' 'Under Fire sounds like it might just be Chicago Fire by way of Belgium, but its truly gripping and cinematic action sequences take it up a notch and make it a worthy binge,' said a write-up in Decider. Elsewhere, user reviews on the show were mixed, with some noting it wasn't particularly realistic (!), but @info-37063 wrote on IMDb: 'Loved the interventions, the actors and the shots. Nicely filmed and great atmosphere. For a Flemish series absolutely something innovative and worth the watch!' View More » Under Fire is available to stream on Channel 4 and Netflix. Got a story?
