It’s honeymoon time in the “Married at First Sight” universe, which means sun-drenched beaches, awkward small talk, and the inevitable emotional explosions. This week, our ten newly minted couples jet off to the Mexican Riviera, presumably expecting margaritas and romance. What they’re likely to get is a hefty dose of reality – and for at least one couple, it looks to be a recipe for disaster.
While some pairs seem to be hitting it off, enjoying the standard honeymoon activities and having those stilted “getting to know you” conversations, one couple appears to be heading straight for a divorce lawyer. Let’s face it, forced intimacy and constant cameras can do that to a relationship, especially one barely a week old.
The previews hint at monumental arguments, tearful confessions, and the distinct possibility that this couple might not even make it back to Chicago together. Is it the pressure of the situation? Fundamental incompatibility? Or just the realization that marrying a stranger on television might not have been the best idea?
Frankly, it wouldn’t be “Married at First Sight” without a healthy dose of relationship implosions, and this season seems determined to deliver. Whether it’s the allure of potential disaster or genuine curiosity about these couples’ futures, I know I’ll be tuning in to witness the fallout.
Married at First Sight airs Tuesdays at 8:00 PM ET/PT on Lifetime.
