Alfie talked more seriously and openly on camera about breaking up than he ever has about marriage.
I imagine Zoe is mentally protecting herself and won’t let herself realize how weird that convo was, but he was being completely serious when he said he really thinks they’d stay friends. If she really allowed herself to feel that she’d realize how hurtful it is that he said so in such a cavalier way. Zoe was obviously joking when she mentioned the breakup in that way that couples might joke about it, But Alfie was blatantly being completely genuine when he said they would still be friends which, ouch. Who wants their man to say he’s already moved on enough in his mind that he can see being platonic and over it?
EDIT: People are right, he shows no real interest in what she says or thinks, and when you watch older vlogs you can see he likes touching her (yes, gasp, on camera), holding her, lovingly looking at her and smiling at her, etc. Yes you move past the honeymoon stage but there’s no need for a young couple with no children or anything to act like they’re 20 years in a tired marriage.
