It sounds like she doesn’t appreciate his pushiness (demanding to be groomed) and she just wants some space. I would not be overly worried yet. You could either try giving them a bit of a break, or you could try distracting them by taking them for a car ride (or similar) in a carrier together. Stressing them isn’t necessarily a good thing, but it does work for some bunnies because they decide comforting each other is more important and asking to be groomed/demanding space.

Is this the size space (3×3) you normally have them in for these sessions? Have you tried a bigger area so she has somewhere to retreat?
