Row at home with new husband making a mess? (6,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dining room

'a mess?' is the definition.
(mess is a kind of dining room)

'row at home with new husband' is the wordplay.
'row' becomes 'din' (both can mean a loud disturbance).
'at home' becomes 'in' ('in' can be similar in meaning to 'at home').
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'new husband' becomes 'groom' (I've seen this before).
'din'+'in'+'groom'='DINING-ROOM'

'making' is the link.

(Other definitions for dining room that I've seen before include "mess" , "place for courses?" , "refectory" , "Where meals are eaten" , "eating-place" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
