Married at First Sight star Gregory Okotie is definitely a catch and his wife Deonna McNeill is very lucky, at least according to his Season 9 co-stars Elizabeth Bice and Amber Bowles.

So far on Married at First Sight's currently-airing season on Lifetime, the only thing Greg has done to rub his wife Deonna the wrong way is compliment her too much!

Deonna told Greg in a recent episode she didn't know how to handle his "100 compliments a day" since they had just met each other on their wedding day, so Greg told his wife he would work on "resisting."

During Wednesday's broadcast of Married at First Sight: Unfiltered, host Jamie Otis asked Elizabeth to weigh in on the situation.

"Elizabeth, do you think you could ever get too many compliments?" Jamie asked.

"No, there's never too many compliments, uh uh!" Elizabeth replied. "Girl needs to hush her mouth! Girls wish for that."

"Can I just say, this is why I love Greg?" Amber chimed in. "Because his only flaw is complimenting someone too much!"

After Amber let out a laugh, Jamie agreed and said of Greg, "If that's his flaw, girl's got no problems!"

Married at First Sight expert, Dr. Pepper Schwartz, also joined the ladies on Unfiltered and offered her two cents on the subject, saying, "Greg is such a sweetheart because he's listening to her."

"He's not being defensive," Dr. Pepper continued. "He's trying to say, 'What do you need and how can I do that? And if what you need is less than what I'm giving, I'll give you less. I'll try.' How heartwarming is that?!"

"Seriously though!" Jamie gushed. "The fact that he's not defensive and he's understanding of where [Deonna] is at, it's just remarkable!"

Jamie then looked at the cameras and said, "Deonna, you've got a good one -- just saying!"

"Mhmm," Amber nodded.

"Yeah," Elizabeth agreed.

Elizabeth then shared she and her Married at First Sight husband, Jamie Thompson, give each other an "equal" amount of compliments in their relationship.

"We're tied," Elizabeth elaborated. "I don't think that we are necessarily even keeping a tab on it. But he absolutely gives them to me. He tells me I'm beautiful all the time."

But Amber subsequently confessed she gives her husband Matthew Gwynne more compliments in their relationship instead of the other way around.

"Matt is more reserved. He doesn't really need the compliments and he'll give them a little at a time," Amber revealed on Unfiltered. "And I'm like, 'Love me all the time!' So, it's just trying to figure out that balance of how much he needs vs. how much I need."
