The honeymoon phase might have ended sooner than fans expected. According to an exclusive video clip uploaded by Bravo, Vanderpump Rules star Scheana Marie broke down about the current state of her marriage and problems she's facing with husband Mike Shay, including his battle with drugs and alcohol.

The clip shows footage from tonight's (Monday, Nov. 16) episode of the hit Bravo reality TV series, Vanderpump Rules. Marie is seen sitting down with her boss and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, Lisa Vanderpump, to discuss her marital issues.

"The truth is everything isn't great. It's not perfect," Marie said tearfully in the clip. "And I keep trying to act like everything's okay. It'll get better. I just keep telling myself, 'It'll be okay, and it'll get better.'"

Marie and Shay exchanged vows in a July 2014 wedding at the Humming Bird Nest Ranch in Santa Susana, California, surrounded by family, friends and cast members from the show. Despite the drama that ensued (typical fight, unorganized wedding events, a controversial crop top wedding dress, etc.), two seemed happier than ever on their big day.

The 30-year-old reality star revealed she noticed a problem brewing just five months into her marriage (around Christmas time). Marie noticed her new hubby began drinking a lot more than he used to, turning it into a personal hobby instead of a social occurrence.

The substance abuse didn't stop with alcohol. She also admitted to the 55-year-old restaurant owner, Shay, that he started mixing prescription drugs with his drinks, sometimes popping up to five pills a day.

"You know it's like, 'Oh my knee's hurting so I'm going to take a Vicodin, but then I'm going to have a couple of glasses of wine,'" Marie told Vanderpump.

Fans can catch the full episode tonight. Vanderpump Rules airs on Monday at 9 p.m. EST, on Bravo.
