With the wedding done, the couples of 'Married at First Sight' have now moved to the next phase of the marriage -- actually getting to know each other better.

So far, we've seen Myrla and Gil, Bao and Johnny, Jose and Rachel, Michaela and Zack and Brett and Ryan tie the knot. Now, the couples are all set to take on their honeymoon. While the couples get to know each other, fans have begun to speculate about Jose and his behavior in general.

For the most part, Jose and Rachel seem to be getting along well. When Jose met Rachel's mom and friend, he wasn't thrilled to know that she tends to be a messy person. Similarly, for Rachel, the fact that Jose was a painfully structured person seemed intimidating. Fans, too, were quick to notice just how strong Jose kept coming on to her, regardless of what the conversation was about. However, fans believe that there is a reason behind his overbearing personality is that he's trying to overcompensate. The general fan consensus right now is that Jose is possibly gay. 

"Jose is #MAFS" pointed out a fan. "I know the Audience think Jose alil ..ya know… #MarriedAtFirstSight #mafs" added another. "I'm really getting gay vibes from José ...or is it just me  #MarriedAtFirstSight #MAFS" stated another. "Jose is GAY! #MAFS" said another. "I'm sorry but Jose is giving me "Hey Gurl" vibes and like I hate to say it! #MAFS #MarriedAtFirstSight" said another. 



 



 



 



 



 

While fans kept discussing if Jose was straight, it didn't help that he commented on wanting to brush Rachel's teeth. It caught her completely off guard and she was thoroughly confused about the comment. While she is open to getting intimate with her husband, his wanting to brush her teeth seemed flat-out weird to her. She casually brought it up during their conversation later in order to understand what he meant by that comment, but he didn't deny it, implying that if she wanted him to do it, he would. Fans were just as confused as Rachel and had no idea of what to make of that bizarre statement. 

"I'm trying so hard to ignore Jose's Hygienist fetish. It's not working. #MAFS MAFSHOUSTON #MarriedAtFirstSight" stated a fan. "Is Jose saying her breath stinks low key? #MarriedAtFirstSight #MAFS" asked another, seeing that the statement literally came out of nowhere. 

"Live footage of José writing down his 256 questions and preparing to ask Rachel to brush her teeth  #MAFS #MarriedAtFirstSight" added a fan, as Jose literally grilled his wife while they were getting ready for bed. 
"Wait what? Jose wanted to brush her teeth for her? Controlling much? They're not going to make it. That's two down three to go #MAFS #MarriedAtFirstSight" pointed out a fan, implying that there was more to that statement than meets the eye. "He wanted to brush her teeth... Now what was Jose really trying to say #MAFS #MarriedAtFirstSight" pointed out another.
