And finally…Priya enthusiastically nominated herself and David to be the Wedding couple for a photo shoot at Home Farm, only to find she got covered in heat bumps due to a reaction to make up. If her day couldn't get any worse, she then had to stand by and watch Alicia and David "get married" for the second time.
