00:11Yeah.
00:12So good.
00:13Hi, honey.
00:14Hi.
00:15Hi.
00:16How are we doing?
00:17Good to see you, man.
00:19Tonight, it's the Married at First Sight must-see reunion.
00:23There's just, like, so much they don't know, you know?
00:26We had the most yeses on Decision Day in Married at First Sight history,
00:31with all five couples saying yes.
00:34He's the light of my life.
00:35God knew that we needed to meet.
00:38I was on cloud nine.
00:39This is probably the best we've been.
00:41It's time to face the truth and each other.
00:44I was in a tailspin.
00:46Stand up and be a man and just say, this is what I want.
00:49Here we go again.
00:50Here comes the moment that you've all been waiting for.
00:53Are you still married?
00:56Are either of you dating?
01:01If you want me to tell my side of the story, then shut up.
01:09Hello, everyone, and welcome to the Married at First Sight Season 19 reunion.
01:13I'm your host, Kevin Frazier, and I want to thank all of you for being here.

01:29Explain that relationship and how it's blossomed.
01:30We're all really close.
01:31You know all of us are really close.
01:32Brittany and I work out at F45 all the time.
01:33Chad and I are very close as well.
01:34Chad and I are very close as well.
01:35It's been a year and a half since all five couples decided to stay married on Decision Day, and now we are dying to know what's been going on.
01:40Just want to say hello to everyone, and I want to thank all of you for being here.
01:44We're gonna have a lot of fun.
01:45Nice.

01:50Explain that relationship and how it's blossomed.
01:53We're all really close.
01:55You know all of us are really close.
01:57Brittany and I work out at F45 all the time.
02:01Chad and I are very close as well.
02:03I work underneath him.
02:04Mm-hmm.
02:05He helps me on real estate stuff all the time, and I'm close with all of them.
02:08We all love each other.
02:09That's great.
02:10That's great.
02:11We have the women on one side, and now the men on the other side.
02:14And throughout this reunion, we're gonna reveal who's still married and who is not.
02:19Jalen and Josh, I want to start with you.
02:21On your wedding day, Jalen, you got from Josh a ticket for Burning Man.
02:26Did you use it?
02:27Yeah, I mean...
02:29I got to see Josh in his element.
02:31I understood why he was passionate about it, and I had a good time.
02:35I looked good, too.
02:36It was up till 6 a.m.
02:38Great ass.
02:39Uh, Josh, tell us about the Burning Man experience with Jalen.
02:42Yeah.
02:43I mean, that experience was really important to me.
02:46Being able to experience that with her and see her really give in to that and enjoy it meant a lot to me.
02:53We were really mostly by ourselves for most of it, so we bonded a lot.
02:57Okay.
02:58Let's take a look.
03:00All right, we're, uh, heading into the Burning Man gates.
03:04I'm, uh, still a little mind-blown that you actually came.
03:07I don't know what I was thinking.
03:10It's Jalen the builder.
03:11Cannot say I'm not adventurous ever again.
03:13I've just been living off Celsius and hand sanitizer.
03:27Come on, you gotta keep going.
03:28You gotta build it up.
03:29Uh-oh.
03:30I'm gonna have to say it.
03:31All right.
03:32I adapted to his life.
03:44I wore the outfits.
03:45I had my ass out.
03:46Like, I was living it.
03:47I was up till 6 a.m.
03:50Jalen, I'm sorry, but I just looked at your finger and I noticed that big sparkly ring that you got on the honeymoon from Josh isn't there.
04:01Jalen and Josh, are you still married?
04:04We are no longer together.
04:07Um, we broke up three months ago.
04:10Um.
04:11Wow.
04:12And, yeah, it was very out of nowhere.
04:19I was in shock.
04:21Um, we were on vacation and he looked at me and he said,
04:29I don't feel connected to you anymore.
04:32I want to break off.
04:34And I was just like, whoa.
04:38Like, what's happening?
04:39Like, you've never expressed that you were unhappy ever.
04:44I was just like, what, where is this coming from?
04:47I don't understand.
04:48Like, how can you one day just decide you're done with the marriage?
04:52Josh, what happened for you?
04:56What changed for you?
04:57Well, first of all, we didn't break up on vacation.
05:00We broke up at home.
05:01So, that's not true.
05:03Oh.
05:04Well, actually, he broke up with me on vacation.
05:06I begged him.
05:07I said, I'm, this is the first time I'm hearing that you're unhappy.
05:10Can we please work it out?
05:11And he said, that's fair.
05:12Yes.
05:13Then, three days later, we were out at a concert.
05:17I'm insecure as fuck right now.
05:19This man just broke up with me out of nowhere.
05:21I'm walking on eggshells, trying to, like, not push the envelope.
05:26I'm trying to, like, be happy with him.
05:28And a girl came up to us, which he knew a lot of people there.
05:32He was there a lot.
05:33And she looked at us like she knew him, but, and, like, they knew each other.
05:37It was weird.
05:38And so I was like, oh, who was that?
05:40And he goes, I'm not sure.
05:42I don't, and I was like, what do you mean you don't know?
05:45And I'm like, did you have sex with her?
05:47Was that all it was?
05:48I would like to change that, because the, immediately, as soon as I didn't have the answer for her,
05:53she looked at me, she just said, did you fuck her?
05:55Did you fuck her?
05:56Maybe I said fuck.
05:59Big deal.
06:00I don't care.
06:01Did you fuck her?
06:02And you're like, you look at me and you go, we're leaving.
06:05Okay.
06:06We get in the car, and I'm like, hey, I'm sorry.
06:09I'm feeling really insecure from what's happened.
06:12I said, I don't know why you're acting so cold.
06:15He said, I'm not acting cold.
06:16I am cold.
06:17You need to pack your things tonight.
06:19It was 12 o'clock.
06:20This conversation is not going.
06:22In your favor.
06:23Remotely normal.
06:24Okay, okay.
06:25Well, hold on, hold on.
06:26Correct.
06:27No, it is.
06:28Let's hear what you, in your opinion, what happened.
06:30Yeah, so we talked about halfway home without a single word in the car.
06:33And she says, look, I get it.
06:35You don't want to be with me anymore.
06:36And I said, you are right.
06:38You should pack your things when we get home.
06:41That's what she just said.
06:43It was like a flip of a switch.
06:45It was out of nowhere.
06:46It was crazy.
06:47I thought we were just so happy and fun.
06:50And so I said, like, what has happened?
06:52Like, what have I done?
06:53He said that I'm a level two on the adventure scale, and he's a 10.
07:00I understand if I was a level two when you met me.
07:03Yes.
07:04But I have gone to five raves.
07:07I've gone to Burning Man for 10 days.
07:09Every festival I said I wouldn't do, I did.
07:13I did it all.
07:14And that blew my mind.
07:15I rode a shark.
07:16Like, I'm a level two still.
07:20And he said he realized it was happening when he bought a new motorcycle and a new truck.
07:28So I was confused.
07:30And he said I make impulse decisions when I'm unhappy.
07:34You know, to make this work, I wanted to give it literally every single last bit of my being to make sure that I made it work.
07:43And I think that there's nobody in this room that can say that I didn't love that woman right there to the best of my ability.
07:50The reality is I lost myself in doing so.
07:53And once I realized that, I knew I had to do something about it.
07:59When you say you lost yourself, and I'm just trying to understand.
08:01Yeah.
08:02What were you missing out on or what were, you know, how did you change?
08:04The thing was is we weren't missing out on the things that I enjoyed doing.
08:08But I just realized that some of these things were so important to me that I wanted my partner to have that same love for them.
08:17And I can't say that she had even remotely as close to the same passion for it as I did.
08:24Of course not.
08:25We knew that.
08:26Okay.
08:27And I wanted somebody who I could share that with.
08:31I think he kind of chases these highs, and then it falls.
08:35I think he needs a constant rush and, like, shiny new objects.
08:40And I think I fell into that.
08:43By the way, Will, you keep making these faces.
08:45You're killing me.
08:46What's going on with the faces you're making right now?
08:48I'm not sure if I'm at liberty to be the one to speak on that.
08:50Hey, come on now.
08:52Uh, yes.
08:53I spoke with Josh a couple of times.
08:55And I'm trying to see things from everybody's side.
08:58But I don't know. I wasn't there.
09:00And I think that you can't fix everything.
09:03You know you can.
09:04Megan and Brittany, y'all are very close with Jalen.
09:07What did you think when Josh broke up with Jalen?
09:11I was very shocked.
09:12Yes.
09:13Very shocked.
09:14I didn't realize that there were any issues.
09:17Because she tried so hard.
09:19Yeah.
09:20I feel like she did so much.
09:21You know, she really put herself out of her comfort zone.
09:24You know, even in the beginning with skydiving.
09:27You know, she went to Burning Man like...
09:30She did go. She did go.
09:31And I will give her that.
09:33And I was gonna go again.
09:34I will give her that.
09:35You guys were doing a lot of the things that you like to do.
09:39And, um, so I, for me, I just felt like shocked.
09:43She would always ask me constantly.
09:46She would constantly ask me if I was happy.
09:48And I was.
09:49I really and truly was.
09:50And so I would tell her yes.
09:52Until I finally realized that I wasn't.
09:57And I'm sorry once again for how abrasive and how abrupt it was.
10:02We had challenges.
10:04We had issues.
10:05Like, he lied about little things all the time within the last...
10:10Can I have an example?
10:11Give me an example.
10:12I would love one.
10:13I will give you the example.
10:14Okay.
10:15The biggest example and the most recent was he had an assistant.
10:19And we were just in the kitchen and I knew he was getting an assistant.
10:22And I was like, oh, like, who is your assistant?
10:24And he said, oh, she's like a 40-year-old or something.
10:27And she wasn't 40.
10:29She's like in her 20s.
10:31And he purposely lied about that.
10:34That's nonsense.
10:35Completely nonsense.
10:36Well, let me ask you this.
10:38Since the breakup, have you been dating anybody?
10:40I have gone on a couple of dates.
10:42Mm-hmm.
10:43Yeah.
10:44Jalen?
10:45What?
10:46What?
10:47Okay.
10:48The faces.
10:49Let's...
10:50I just think it's...
10:51It's...
10:52What?
10:54Say it.
10:55I'm okay with...
10:56I don't care when Josh dates.
10:57How fast...
10:58He could have dated the next day.
10:59But...
11:00We got videos.
11:01They got videos of Josh all over someone.
11:04Which is fine.
11:05If that's his girlfriend, that's great.
11:07I don't need to see the videos.
11:08But they were sent to me of him with the girl all over each other.
11:12And to tell my friends to lie to me about you dating is weird.
11:16You're allowed to date whenever you want.
11:17I didn't tell your friends to lie to you.
11:18You said, hey, I think it would be really silly to tell Jalen.
11:22That's verbatim.
11:23I have a screenshot.
11:24That's fine.
11:25So I wouldn't...
11:26That's fine.
11:27That's called lying to Jalen.
11:28That's not...
11:29No.
11:30That's just not telling you.
11:31It's not lying to you.
11:32That's how I view it.
11:33No, no, no.
11:34If I had a really good friend, I would...
11:35They would probably go, my God.
11:36My best friend.
11:37I saw that with this woman.
11:38I would've said, oh, wow.
11:39How is that...
11:40How is that me telling them to lie to you?
11:42But, Josh, let...
11:43Let's...
11:44Let's understand this.
11:45If it was one of your dudes, you would expect them to come up and say...
11:49No.
11:50I actually...
11:51Oh, no.
11:52You would.
11:53You would.
11:54You would.
11:55I personally wouldn't want to know.
11:56I just didn't want to hurt you more than I already had.
11:58Josh, at what point were you gonna ever say, hey, I think I'm losing myself.
12:02Hey, I think I'm unhappy.
12:03Hey, I think something's feeling unfulfilled.
12:06You just, like, acted completely fine.
12:09We got a dog.
12:10And we were living together for a year and three months.
12:13We were looking to go to Burning Man again.
12:15I didn't act.
12:16By the way, who got custody of the dog?
12:18The new dog?
12:19Yeah.
12:20Me, my baby.
12:21Yeah.
12:22Yeah.
12:23The dog is with you.
12:24Yeah.
12:25All right.
12:26And he's the light of my life.
12:27And I think God knew that we needed to meet so I could have this dog.
12:32Because he's literally my child.
12:34So that is the biggest takeaway from our relationship is I am the proudest dog mom to the cutest dog in the world.
12:42No offense.
12:43But, like, he is the cutest dog ever.
12:45Mm-hmm.
12:46Well, glad you love the dog.
12:47And I'm glad that worked out.
12:48And you know what?
12:49Thank you guys for sharing.
12:50Because I'm sure it wasn't easy.
12:52And the way your marriage ended was not easy at all.
12:55So thanks for sharing that.
12:56All right.
12:57Let's keep moving.
12:58Jalen, things may not have worked out for you.
13:00But in a very first for Married at First Sight, we had a mother-daughter duo.
13:04And your mom also got married.
13:06Belinda and Chad, are you still married?
13:17Belinda and Chad, are you still married?
13:23No.
13:27Catch me up on what's going on.
13:28It seemed like you guys had a great emotional connection in the beginning.
13:31Mm-hmm.
13:32It seemed that way.
13:33It seemed like it was really good.
13:34I mean, yeah.
13:35I mean, we were together on our wedding night.
13:36Mm-hmm.
13:37So, showering.
13:38So, I mean, you can only get so comfortable, right?
13:41So, I mean, we were comfortable with that and everything was fine.
13:44And then, you know, honeymoon, everything was fine.
13:47And then we got back to the apartment and everything changed.
13:50What changed?
13:52Well, the intimacy level changed.
13:57On whose part?
13:59I mean, I'm not really an initiator for the most part.
14:03But there were times when I was trying to, like, tell him, like, hey, if you want to, you know, be intimate or something, we don't have to have the dog in here.
14:10Like, we can get the dog out, right?
14:13But it just wasn't, nothing was changing.
14:16And, I mean, I didn't get married to, like, be sleeping alone.
14:22Chad, was it just too much to come in and throw that dog out of the way?
14:25Or what was going on?
14:27No, it's, I don't sleep.
14:30Very seldom do I sleep.
14:32I'm used to turning TV on or listening to music.
14:35And I sit there and I decompress.
14:38And normally, I go to bed around 1, 1.30, if I fall asleep.
14:44But I feel like my biggest issue was the drinking.
14:49It got to a point every night, it was him sitting on the couch, drinking, drinking, drinking.
14:55There were times I'd wake up, like, at 2, 3 in the morning, and I would actually go move the glass from his hand because I was afraid it might, like, fall and break.
15:02And, I mean, we did end up having a talk at the end.
15:06And I told him, like, I'm not the type of woman who will love someone and not hold them accountable.
15:16Belinda, you said yes to staying with Chad.
15:19What happened after decision day?
15:21Um, after decision day, I, um, was gonna go move in.
15:26And, um, we kind of had a moment where Chad brought his cat downstairs, the cat that no one ever saw all season because she's, you know, anxious.
15:38My dog approached them.
15:40He didn't bark or jump on Chad.
15:41He already knew not to.
15:43She got spooked and kind of climbed on him and may have, like, maybe scratched him a little, so he got upset.
15:49He was yelling, saying the dog was being aggressive.
15:52And I told him he's just a curious dog.
15:55And then he yelled at me and said that the dog was untrained and didn't know how to behave.
15:59And I kind of just, like, froze because I felt the panic come up.
16:05And in that moment, I grabbed all my things from the kitchen table and I started loading up the dog into my car and I left.
16:12Chad, what were you thinking watching her walk out?
16:15You know, I'm human.
16:16And I've been dealing with anxiety issues.
16:19In times like that, it's not necessarily the rational person that's dealing with what's going on.
16:25I was in a tailspin.
16:27I'm gonna pause you right there for a second, Chad.
16:29We need to help our viewers understand what's going on here.
16:32We have some, uh, never-before-seen footage five days after Decision Day,
16:36which is also the day after Belinda moved out of Chad's place.
16:39The cameras kept rolling and the group gathered for a crawfish party.
16:43Let's take a quick look at this.
16:46Hi!
16:47Hi, this is gorgeous!
16:49Thank you!
16:50Hi!
16:51Hey! Oh, you look so pretty!
16:52I'm, like, slowly going through your whole house.
16:54Oh, yeah! Did you see it all?
16:55No.
16:56Well, I'll show you later.
16:57How are you, Mom? What have you been up to?
17:02I'm stressed eating.
17:03What's going on with you and Chad?
17:05I was supposed to move into Chad's.
17:06What?
17:07There was, like, a blow-up.
17:09It didn't go well.
17:11I mean, I've tolerated the dog for two months.
17:14I just got tired of it last night.
17:16And the anxiety, the cat dug her claws into my chest.
17:20It triggered me.
17:21The dog came up, I pushed his head down, and it just didn't go well.
17:26I mean, I'm only hearing it from your side right now, and so, you know, at the end of the day, I don't think that this is anything that you guys can't work through.
17:33That's up to her.
17:35And I'm not gonna play second fiddle to a fucking dog.
17:38I'm just not gonna do it.
17:39I'm the alpha in my house.
17:41It makes me sad you guys are having challenges.
17:48You guys have worked so hard.
17:51I think the dog is a trigger.
17:53Really?
17:54Yeah.
17:55Strictly over a dog?
17:56Yeah.
17:57Yeah, I could see it being a trigger, but I don't think that's, like, y'all's end-all be-all.
18:02I'm not seeing everything in front of fucking cameras.
18:04I'm just not gonna do it.
18:06And if that's where we're going with all the cameras, then y'all are gonna be disappointed.
18:10My thing is, is that you said the cameras were triggers, and your anxiety, and you said production was a trigger.
18:16Yeah.
18:17Wow.
18:18So now it's not even that.
18:19Now it's just the dog.
18:20So anxiety can only be tied to production?
18:22No, no, no, Chad.
18:23That's not what she's saying.
18:24That's fine.
18:25That's why I'm here.
18:26Hold on.
18:27Well, don't.
18:28Well, just wait a second.
18:29That's not fair.
18:30That's not fair.
18:31I'm done.
18:32I'm not talking about this anymore.
18:34Of course.
18:35Of course.
18:36Of course.
18:37No, no, no.
18:38Let's not do that.
18:39Your mom's got it.
18:42Fuck y'all.
18:44Get this mic off of me.
18:45I'm going home.
18:46That was bullshit.
18:47That was an ambush.
18:48Fuck y'all.
18:49Get this goddamn mic off of me.
18:53I want to give you a second to just address that.
18:58You okay?
19:02Well, first of all, thanks for bringing that up.
19:08A poquito sarcasm there.
19:10No, I know it was sarcasm.
19:12But what I'm going to say to you is that that moment, it didn't play well.
19:17If you want me to tell my side of the story, then shut up.
19:23Then let me tell my side of the story.
19:26Look, I don't want you to feel like we're here to jump on your back, but you got up and you cursed at everyone and that was, that's harsh.
19:38I understand the frustration, but when you speak to people like that, that sticks.
19:43You know?
19:44I agree.
19:45It was a culmination of a long, long, crazy time.
19:48And I'm sorry.
19:50I wish I could rewind it, but I can't.
19:52Sure.
19:53It's embarrassing to see yourself lose control like that.
19:57I judge myself harder than anybody in this room or anybody on that TV set.
20:02So...
20:03As somebody who did kind of act a little bit off the cusp, I think you felt ambushed.
20:09And then later looking back at it, you're like, damn, I could have handled that a little better.
20:15I wish I'd have handled it a lot differently, but I can't.
20:18Yeah, we can't.
20:19I mean, hindsight's 20-20, but you know, we learn from it.
20:21We're not our worst moments, none of us.
20:23We all had instances and moments where we just didn't know how to handle the moment.
20:27You're not your worst moment, okay?
20:29Why did you do the show?
20:32Well, nothing else.
20:33It worked.
20:34I was hoping maybe this was divine intervention.
20:36And it seemed like it was working at first.
20:39It did.
20:40There was just so much going on.
20:43Not just with the show, but with everything.
20:46Mm-hmm.
20:47It just kind of got overwhelming.
20:49I got a lot of texts from Chad.
20:52You know, I knew he was struggling with production.
20:55But I also want to reiterate, you know, Chad has a heart of gold.
21:01And I think that he felt more and more cornered, and it affected him more and more.
21:07Hmm.
21:08Okay.
21:09Belinda, how did this moment affect your relationship?
21:10I mean, as far as what we just saw, that is a turnoff.
21:14It's a turnoff when people treat other people rude or ugly.
21:18And I did tell him that I was triggered by that behavior.
21:23And you mentioned that, that something in your past concerned you when he raised his voice.
21:27Mm-hmm.
21:28What was that?
21:29Um, yeah.
21:30My previous marriage, we, you know, had those moments where he would blow up.
21:35And I was, like, seeing it again.
21:37I just felt like I was in the same position where it's, like, there's this person.
21:42And they're, and they're good.
21:43And they're fun.
21:44And, and everything's perfectly fine.
21:46And then all of a sudden, there's this blow up.
21:48And you don't never know when it's gonna happen.
21:50And you're walking on eggshells.
21:51I could see my producers walking on eggshells at times.
21:54Mm-hmm.
21:55And he was trying to manipulate me into thinking producers were trying to do something when I knew very well the producers weren't doing anything to me or to him.
22:05I mean, they went out of their way to try to accommodate him.
22:08And that's when I started to take steps back.
22:11I started to get the feeling that the way he is treating them, eventually he'll treat me that way.
22:17And then he did.
22:18All right.
22:20Let's get to the bottom of something else that went down.
22:22And, um, Chad, when you spoke with Belinda, um, you said that you exchanged texts with Josh about your frustrations with production and that Josh kind of agreed with you.
22:34However, Belinda said you were not telling the truth.
22:37What was in the text with your conversation with Josh that you pulled up and talked about?
22:41I don't recall the details of that.
22:43But, I mean, we used each other as a sounding board.
22:47Josh, do you remember that text?
22:49And were you guys talking about the problems that Chad was experiencing?
22:53I don't remember any text that came from Chad, um, specifically about production.
22:59So, yeah, I think it did kind of catch me off guard a little bit whenever I was brought into that.
23:05And I personally don't feel like I ever had any issues with production interfering with my relationship.
23:10Yeah.
23:11I also did not feel like production was driving any wedges.
23:15We had a great experience with production all around.
23:18I mean, I knew that the requirements were gonna be pretty heavy.
23:22And I signed up knowing that, you know, you sort of put your life a little bit on hold.
23:27Like, and you have to work around it.
23:29But you're signing up not just to do some weird reality.
23:32You're signing up to find your partner.
23:34And I think that's a bigger trade-off.
23:36So, that's the way I looked at it.
23:38Mm-hmm.
23:39Chad, is there anything you want to say?
23:41I'm terribly sorry that I hurt people.
23:45And I wish I could go back and unhurt people.
23:47Mm-hmm.
23:48Um, but I can't.
23:52And you deserve to be happy.
23:54And I hope you can find it.
23:57For me, it's all said and done.
24:01Belinda, have you started dating again?
24:03I have.
24:04Yeah?
24:05Mm-hmm.
24:06I wasn't thinking I was gonna actively be dating.
24:08I just happened to meet someone.
24:10Mm.
24:11Jalen, have you met the new guy?
24:13I have.
24:14What do you think about him?
24:15Tell me what you think about him.
24:16He's great.
24:17He's sweet.
24:18And he seems to be, so far, I mean, someone that I could see my mom with.
24:24So, I'm happy for her.
24:26Look, Belinda and Chad, thank you for sharing your story with us.
24:28And I know this wasn't easy for you.
24:30I know it.
24:31And I appreciate it.
24:32And I respect the fact that you sat here, and you talked about it, and you answered the
24:35questions, all right?
24:36I do.
24:37Because this ain't easy.
24:39All right.
24:40Look, let's switch gears and lighten the mood for a minute.
24:43You know, physical intimacy is a key part of marriage.
24:46But it's not just about the closeness in the bedroom.
24:49Sometimes it means learning truths that are downright embarrassing.
24:52These clips may have unlocked some of the things our couples were not prepared for.
24:57I don't know what's going through his head.
24:58I mean, is this weird to you?
24:59This is the intimacy box.
25:00What have you used before?
25:02Oh, you just pulled out everything you've used before?
25:03Yes.
25:04Oh, man, okay.
25:05Nipple clamps.
25:06Does it hurt?
25:07It looks stupid, but it doesn't hurt.
25:08Tell me what you want me to do to your body.
25:14という Mil Adorentine?
25:15Wait, you're trying to actually hurt me?
25:24Megan, who do you think has had more sexual partners than you or me?
25:32You.
25:33All righty.
25:34That's awkward.
25:35I'm going to bring one and tell you everything.
25:39more sexual partners, you or me.
25:40You.
25:41All righty.
25:42That's awkward.
25:43I'm gonna drink.
25:45Get comfortable, dude.
25:47Damn.
25:48Hey, man, I don't want your beans in my face.
25:50He has cute little balls.
25:51Ooh.
25:53I used to pick my toenails.
25:55Like, rip them off?
25:56Yes.
25:58I have a confession to make.
26:00Uh-oh.
26:00I forgot your name.
26:03This is what happens when you have a 63-year-old on the show.
26:08Come on.
26:09Those were some fun, fun moments, weren't those?
26:12Your reaction to the toenail thing was classic.
26:15Did you pull, you know, the bed sheet back up
26:17and look at her toenails at night?
26:19There were a couple times he looked at my toes,
26:21and they were fine.
26:22I don't think he ever had any issues.
26:23They look great today.
26:24They look great.
26:25They look amazing tonight.
26:27I just wanted to tell you that.
26:28In your defense, Brittany, I do it too.
26:31I don't know if that makes you feel like that.
26:34All right, don't move.
26:35We'll be back with more from the Married at First Sight
26:37Reunion.
26:38Is it Maya she saw when I stood up or from Megan's?
26:43Yes.
26:44I'm great.
26:45Ooh, Rhonda got that ears.
26:46Rhonda got that ears.
26:47Yes.
26:48Rhonda got that ears.
26:49Yes.
26:50She's dressed a little shorter underneath than I thought.
26:51I want to move some.
26:52I'm good.
26:53OK.
26:54All right, let's keep moving.
26:59Our next couple, she doesn't use sheets with her bedding.
27:04And he talked about the crusades on the night of his wedding,
27:08Brittany and Will.
27:10Will, I want to ask you right now, what is the current state
27:12of your relationship with Brittany?
27:15Uh, there isn't one.
27:18We haven't spoken in a long time.
27:19Really?
27:20Brittany, when was the last time you guys spoke?
27:23Like, over a year and a half ago?
27:26Because?
27:27We are no longer together, so we don't speak.
27:31After decision day?
27:33I left at evening, so I was gone for a week.
27:35Things didn't sit well.
27:36And so when I got back, I ended things there.
27:40Why didn't you say no on decision day?
27:43Honestly, it was in the moment.
27:46I do adore her.
27:48And I didn't want to see her sad either.
27:50She was crying.
27:51And I mean, I know it made things more difficult by saying no,
27:54then saying yes, and then being gone for three or four days.
27:58Brittany, do you wish he had said no on decision day?
28:01Hmm.
28:03I mean, it's easy for me to say, like, yeah,
28:04if he really wanted to say no, he could have said no.
28:08But, you know, when he came home,
28:10I had an inkling that it was going to happen.
28:13Um, and I had prepared myself to have a conversation about it.
28:21But the way that it happened threw me off.
28:23He was overly rude, stern, and I felt very cold.
28:27Like, he was very cold.
28:29So I, in true Brittany fashion, I tried to fight it.
28:33Well, I mean, since you mentioned it, let's take a look at some never-before-seen footage shot a week after decision day from your breakup at your apartment and the aftermath that followed the next day at a group pool party.
28:46I think it was such an emotional week because we didn't have the opportunity to have the conversation after we needed to have the decision day.
28:55I don't know if you can help.
28:56You felt like it was a lot of the worst.
28:57You's already...
28:58What's when you were trying and you didn't know that it's probably worth it.
29:01More stuff from me, too.
29:03I don't know what it is.
29:04I don't know.
29:06I know how you can reach me.
29:07I can't reach you.
29:08No.
29:08I can't reach me.
29:09I can't reach me by now.
29:10We're over at you right now.
29:12It's this great.
29:17Can you find me?
29:18Can you find me?
29:19Can you find me?
29:20Can you find me?
29:23We're not going to talk to you.
29:26Can you find me so far?
29:27OK.
29:34We haven't seen y'all since decision day.
29:37Mm, smells good.
29:38I haven't eaten all day.
29:39I just haven't had much of an appetite.
29:41Really?
29:42Why?
29:43Tricks of the trade.
29:44You know, life sucks.
29:45Aw.
29:46Yo.
29:47I like that shirt.
29:48Oh, thank you.
29:51I like the Tigers, giving real big LSU vibes.
29:54Chad.
29:55How are you, bro?
29:56I'm alive.
29:56I'm here.
29:57Good.
29:58Y'all want to move to the chairs?
29:59Yeah.
30:00Yeah.
30:01Let's do it.
30:04All right, you two.
30:05You're sitting on opposite sides of the room.
30:07Will, what's going on?
30:08Moving on with my life, and figuring that out,
30:11and how to do that, and what's going on.
30:13What have I done that's so bad to where
30:16you have to treat me like I'm nothing?
30:19Treating you like you're nothing.
30:20Well, the way you talk to me.
30:21Am I allowed to speak?
30:22Can I speak now?
30:23Yeah, you can speak.
30:25Well, just like that, that's even,
30:27I think that's just like not OK to.
30:29I was trying to respond, and she cut me off.
30:30Wait, you're being sarcastic.
30:31I was not trying to be hurtful.
30:32I know you weren't.
30:33I just wanted to make this stop.
30:35I wanted it to be over.
30:36Like, I was never able to be enough for her.
30:39Like, no matter what I did, it was never enough.
30:40She was either running to tell someone
30:41that I wasn't being vulnerable and not doing something.
30:44But it just pushed me away.
30:45So after that, I just decided I didn't want this.
30:47But I never said you weren't enough.
30:49I said, I don't know if I'm enough for you.
30:52I never once said that you were, this is stupid.
30:55I never once said that you were not enough for me.
30:57I've never in my life said that, because that is not true.
30:59That's not how I feel.
31:00I think that during the conversation
31:01where you did say that you didn't feel anything,
31:02you stated that, well, maybe if you don't like me
31:03doing things for you, I'm not the person for you.
31:06And that was enough for you to want to divorce me, really?
31:09Like, all of the issues that we've been going through,
31:11that's enough for you to just say, fuck it,
31:13I don't want to be married anymore?
31:14Yes.
31:27Brittany, how hard was that moment?
31:29Oh, it was difficult.
31:31It was, uh, it was devastating.
31:35You know, I, um, yeah, I mean, it was tough.
31:43I don't take pride or enjoyment out of being mean,
31:47especially not to her.
31:48But I think that I had to do that to be succinct.
31:52Why?
31:53Because I was told that when I'm softer with those mannerisms,
31:56that it's giving her hope, even though I'm telling her no.
31:59Uh, so I just, I think I had to be overly rude.
32:03I was not trying to lead her on.
32:04I wanted to make sure that we were at least concrete on that.
32:07And I felt as if that was the only other,
32:10that was the route to take in that moment.
32:12I mean, he made it clear that he was done.
32:15He made it very clear that he was done.
32:16And I, I wanted to have a conversation.
32:20I was persistent.
32:21I wanted to keep fighting for it.
32:23Brittany reached out a couple of times,
32:25and some really rude things were said.
32:28So I said bye and blocked her number.
32:32After Will blocked you, did you continue
32:34to try and get in touch with him?
32:35Yeah, I wrote him a letter and dropped off that letter.
32:38You know, I was still trying to fight for our,
32:42our marriage in that moment.
32:44I conveyed how much I loved him.
32:46And like, I don't feel like this is over.
32:48It's not the end.
32:49We didn't give ourselves a fair shake.
32:51We didn't fight for it.
32:52We didn't fight for it.
32:53Um, yeah.
32:57Did you read the letter?
32:58No, I did not.
33:00So what happened when Brittany showed up to drop it off?
33:06I don't know. I wasn't there.
33:08And then there was a note on my door saying that she paid some visits.
33:13I'm sorry?
33:14They said that you'd been there more than once.
33:16Who was they?
33:17I'd never know.
33:18People in the leasing office.
33:19Okay, I see.
33:20The only time that I was there was when I dropped off that letter.
33:23Okay, perfect.
33:24Maybe if they've seen me, it's because she lives there,
33:28and I've been to her place a couple of times.
33:29That's possible.
33:30So you've been back to the building, but you're there to see Jalen.
33:33I've been back to the building because of Jalen.
33:35And that's as of recently.
33:38Considering that he didn't read the letter,
33:40is there anything you want to say to him now?
33:51Brittany, is there anything you want to say to him now?
33:57No.
34:00No?
34:01No.
34:02Okay.
34:03Is there anything you want to say to her?
34:05Uh, yes.
34:07I apologize for not being present
34:09and doing a better job of trying to understand how to hear you.
34:13And then definitely, I can be too literal,
34:16and that makes things difficult as well.
34:20I just get lost sometimes.
34:21I'm like, that's why we need Will for dummies sometimes.
34:25Sometimes it's a little bit overhead.
34:27I was like, sometimes talking to Will, and I'm like,
34:28wait, what are you saying?
34:29I'm getting lost.
34:30I'm so confused.
34:31I think watching Will explain the different types of love
34:34was probably the best thing I've ever seen in my life.
34:36I do want to say, that was incredible.
34:38Just kind of thought that the term love is kind of bastardizing.
34:41People abuse it.
34:42So I feel like you should be succinct and clear.
34:43But, wow.
34:47Again, a Will answer.
34:48A Will answer, right?
34:50But you clearly were speaking to me,
34:52and I was taking it a different way than what you meant.
34:54So thank you for that journey with me.
34:57Yeah.
34:58No, I appreciate that.
34:59Um, I'm going to change it.
35:01I am going to say something back.
35:02Go ahead.
35:03Um, watching it back, like, I want to clarify.
35:06Not at any point did I think you were a bad person.
35:09I don't think that you were trying to, you know,
35:11intentionally hurt my feelings.
35:15And I don't think I ever questioned that you loved me.
35:18I think what I was trying to do is just maybe dig for more.
35:24But, yeah, I appreciate what you just said.
35:26Like, it was all just a breakdown in communication.
35:31Yeah.
35:32Would either one of you ever get married at first sight again?
35:35The Britney I am today?
35:37Yeah.
35:38Is that Britney still a hopeful romantic,
35:40like you said you were?
35:41100%.
35:42Yeah?
35:43Yeah.
35:43She's just a lot more calm.
35:47She's a lot less reactionary.
35:49And that's with a lot of prayer and a lot of therapy
35:52and my support system, some of which that are here on this stage.
35:57But, um, yeah, I mean,
35:59I'm never going to lose the desire to want to be married,
36:02you know, want to be the wife that I was trying to present myself as.
36:08Thank you guys for sharing because I'm sure it wasn't easy at all.
36:12All right, let's move on to our next couple, Rhonda and Pat.
36:19Are you still married?
36:23No.
36:24No.
36:25Why did you and Pat officially break up?
36:30Well, we were together nine months.
36:34And then he had gone to Europe for a month on his own.
36:38He did invite me to go, but I had taken off so much time last year.
36:41I mean, we had a lot of, we did a lot of trips last year.
36:45Um, so he came back and he was a great listener that night.
36:49Did a right one.
36:50For the next 10 days, I was on cloud nine.
36:54I was like, we did all these things with friends.
36:57I was hanging on and we were kissing.
36:58I was just like, I was feeling like this is probably the best we've been
37:03since the reception at our wedding.
37:05And then what?
37:06What happened then?
37:07It was great.
37:07So I wake up one morning and we were going to go on a bike ride that day.
37:12And he was sitting outside listening to the meditation on anger and I was like, what the
37:18fuck?
37:19Like really?
37:20Because I was like feeling so great about us.
37:22Mm-hmm.
37:23So, you know, I waited for him to finish.
37:24I made him a coffee.
37:25I went out there and I said, hey, and I asked him about it and I said, are you angry?
37:29And he said, well, I'm not, you know, really angry right now, but I can feel myself starting
37:35to get angry.
37:36And I said, let me guess, is this because we haven't had sex since you've been back
37:41the last 10 days?
37:43And he said, honestly, yes, that's it.
37:47And then we met for dinner and in the first two minutes I was there, he said he was done.
37:54And so I left.
37:55Were your physical needs being met?
37:58I would have enjoyed more.
38:00Mm-hmm.
38:01So I would say no.
38:03And it was something that I had felt for quite some time.
38:08We had been intimate.
38:09The wedding night.
38:10Yeah.
38:11It started off with literally a bang.
38:13What happened?
38:14I'll tell you what happened.
38:16My experience of being in a relationship with Pat was that he was very insecure.
38:22And that insecurity was a complete turnoff romantically.
38:29For example, Pat, as you guys saw, showed up on decision day and said he did not want
38:34to stay married and changed his mind.
38:38He went from being this, like, I'm going to say no to, oh, oh.
38:44And it was just, I was so confused.
38:45I needed somebody to stand up and be a man and just say, this is what I want and this is
38:49what I need.
38:50It's like, you know, hunched shoulders and whining and like that just was like not a sexual
38:56turn on for me.
38:58But no matter what Pat said, I had made a commitment to give this a year.
39:03I certainly wanted to see what our relationship would be like off camera.
39:08And I tried to explain, you know, from my perspective that intimacy is more than just sexual.
39:15And his response was, I don't feel worthy or loved if I'm not having sex.
39:21The way I received it was, I lost respect for you and I wasn't attracted to you.
39:29And literally within a minute or two of that, my switch just flipped off.
39:37And when it's off, it's off.
39:39It's just off.
39:40I feel like Pat really came into this because he wanted a wife.
39:45And I never felt like he wanted me.
39:48He just wanted a person that was his wife.
39:50I mean, he came in looking for physical intimacy that I would assume he would hope would lead
39:58to a connection.
40:00And I feel like I came in looking for a connection.
40:04And the physical intimacy would be like the icing on the cake.
40:08I just really struggled for that connection, I think, because of that.
40:14You never got to use that safe word, huh?
40:16Pineapple, right?
40:17Potato.
40:18Pineapples.
40:19Pineapple.
40:20Right, right, right.
40:21Pat, what did you learn from this experience?
40:23I learned that I put other people before me to my detriment.
40:29And learning and accepting to love myself, you know?
40:37I took on the habit of saying to myself out loud, and God, this was awkward, but I love
40:45you, Patrick.
40:47And did I slip up?
40:49Hell yeah, I did.
40:50But was I making the effort?
40:51I really was.
40:52I just didn't feel like it was being received.
40:55Mm-hmm.
40:56Rhonda, what did you learn?
40:57I think being a single parent for so long, I had to control the situation, or there would
41:03be chaos.
41:04And I think with Pat, I was trying to control the situation instead of letting it flow.
41:10Almost like a salmon swimming upstream, you know?
41:13Against the current, instead of just letting it flow.
41:16And so I think I've learned to just, like, more surrender.
41:21It's like you could have given him a little more grace.
41:24Yeah.
41:26Okay, moving on to our last couple.
41:29Yes, they have jokes.
41:31Derek and Megan.
41:32They were so eager to make their relationship work, but was a perfect set of abs enough to
41:37keep this marriage strong?
41:39You know, last time that we saw you two, you both had said yes on decision day to staying married,
41:45and you were actually preparing your house for a baby.
41:49How are things going, and how have things changed since decision day?
41:53Um, I had a miscarriage.
42:06And I know that's something very hard to talk about, having experienced that in my life.
42:12I'm very, very sorry to hear that.
42:15It was, uh, it was very rough.
42:17You know, I, I feel bad for anyone that has to go through that.
42:20You know, taking it back to decision day, Megan was pregnant.
42:25We were excited.
42:26We were on a high.
42:27We said yes.
42:29From our perspective, it was like, look, this, this worked.
42:32You know, we were really headed down that path.
42:34We were family planning.
42:35That's what we were thinking about.
42:36And then, you know, soon after that's when we got the devastating news.
42:41And it was, it was extremely hard.
42:45Uh, seeing what Megan had to go through, you know, what we had to go through,
42:51it was really, really terrible.
42:56Megan and Derek, are you still married?
43:06Once we went through the miscarriage, you know, everything changed for us.
43:15You know, we really just started to clash on some things.
43:18Derek's very stubborn.
43:19I'm very stubborn.
43:20There was a lot of give and take.
43:22I was the one that was like, let's get into couples therapy.
43:26Um, but there was a lot of issues.
43:34And if you don't work on those issues, then yeah, it's not going to work.
43:39It was, it was hard to talk about openly.
43:41I mean, it was, it was deep stuff.
43:43So then we had a really bad fight.
43:47Mm-hmm.
43:49And when we were fighting, I told Megan I didn't love her anymore.
43:57Derek broke up with me over the phone and then moved out a week later.
44:01And I haven't seen him since.
44:05It was horrible.
44:06I mean, the way that it happened was like, dude, that was so uncool.
44:10Breaking up is never, there's never a good time to do it.
44:17It's always going to be hard.
44:20I knew that this wasn't the right person for me.
44:27Yeah, I had to be true to myself.
44:29I had to be true to Megan.
44:31When he broke up with me, something in my head changed.
44:35And I couldn't remember anything good from our relationship.
44:38I don't, I just remember all the bad.
44:40And then I watched and then I remembered all the good.
44:44And that was hard because for like a year and a half, I don't remember any of the good.
44:49And then it all just came back, floodgates, everything.
44:53I don't think Derek's a bad person.
44:56I don't think that he handled it well.
44:58I don't think that was fair to me.
45:02My question is, do you think that he would have said yes on decision day if you were not pregnant?
45:07I don't know.
45:10I wasn't happy.
45:11I don't think Megan was happy.
45:13I think whether we said yes or no on decision day, I think the eventual outcome would be the same.
45:19Wow.
45:20One of us respected the other, but that's not mutual.
45:24I'm sorry.
45:25I didn't think I said anything insulting there.
45:27I think you're demeaning our relationship, quite honestly.
45:30That's fine.
45:31You didn't think we'd work out.
45:33That's really upsetting.
45:34We were going to have a kid together.
45:36I think you're kind of taking away from like all the good that we had.
45:39And I really just don't, I don't think that's really fair.
45:42That's fine.
45:43It feels, it feels cold.
45:45I mean, now that I'm even thinking about it, like I don't want to be with somebody that doesn't want to be with me.
45:51Do I have things I need to work on?
45:53100%.
45:54Do I hate the way that I reacted in things?
45:57Yes.
45:58I look back at it and I will tell you, I will be a better person.
46:03I've learned a lot.
46:05And I know I'm a catch.
46:08I think Megan is a great person.
46:10And I think that, I hope that she can find someone that really she falls in love with.
46:17I mean, she deserves it.
46:18And I really hope the best for her.
46:21And I mean that genuinely.
46:22Vice versa.
46:23I mean, I don't wish you bad at all.
46:26I hope you find somebody and it's great.
46:28Generally.
46:29You know, I've had some fabulous dates, you know, and people that I connect with.
46:34And this is going to sound like tit for tat and I don't mean it to be by any means.
46:39I felt really seen on a lot of these dates.
46:41Like I felt like people saw me.
46:43Did you feel unseen in your...
46:45Yeah.
46:46A lot of times.
46:47Really?
46:48Yeah.
46:49Derek, are you dating?
46:50Yes.
46:51I've been dating someone for seven months.
46:55Okay.
46:56It's going really well.
46:57I'm really, really happy in it.
47:00And she's excited to be a mom.
47:03She really loves me and I love her.
47:06We do say I love you and I'm happy I was able to find that.
47:12And I think, I hope that Megan, I hope you find someone that you can share that with too.
47:17I'm happy for you.
47:18I really do.
47:19I really do.
47:20Did you know he was dating?
47:21I mean, I saw he was on Raya two months ago.
47:24Uh-huh.
47:25He's been dating for seven months, but he was on Raya.
47:27And I sent it to Jalen and Brittany.
47:29I don't know.
47:33And that's not shade.
47:34I'm just being honest.
47:35I just like told Jalen.
47:36You're not still on Raya?
47:37No.
47:38No.
47:39Okay.
47:40No.
47:41Your girlfriend, no, you got off of Raya.
47:42That's right.
47:43Okay.
47:44All right.
47:45All right.
47:46What have you learned from this experience?
47:47I can be defensive and I can get in my head.
47:50Let's slow it down a little bit.
47:52And, you know, I believe in growing.
47:55I just want to be a better person.
47:57I'm very happy that you're in a relationship and she appreciates you.
48:00I think that's what all of us want in a relationship is to be appreciated and to be seen.
48:05Thanks.
48:06There's no ill will for me.
48:08I hope you have your three babies and I hope that they're great.
48:13You're going to have more babies and you're going to have your children too.
48:16Oh, I know.
48:17I promise you.
48:18I promise you.
48:19Oh.
48:20Brittany and I always talk about, we already picked the neighborhood we're going to live in next to each other.
48:23Our kids are going to take the golf courts to each other.
48:24Right next to each other.
48:25All right.
48:26Jalen's going to be there too.
48:27Yeah.
48:28I'm like, and me.
48:29And Jalen's going to be there too.
48:30Blend and I are going to be traveling the world.
48:32That's right.
48:33Girls are like a, like a tribe.
48:35Like we all genuinely care about one another.
48:38I texted all of these guys.
48:39I think we, we share a pretty close bond having gone through what we went through.
48:43We're all really close.
48:44All of us.
48:45That's great.
48:46That's great.
48:47Look, this has been quite a journey.
48:49And even though none of our five couples stayed together, the friendships and lifelong bonds that have formed are truly something special.
48:57And I am so grateful to all of you for sharing your stories with us tonight because it hasn't been easy.
49:02And I know your marriages may not have lasted, but I hope you all have learned something about yourselves that you can take forward as you meet new people.
49:11That being said, before we wrap up, there's one more exciting announcement.
49:15Next year, there will be an all new season of Married at First Sight.
49:18The experiment will head to a new city with more couples than ever.
49:21I want you to take a sneak peek.
49:27I'm getting married and I can't believe it.
49:30I want a wife.
49:31I would love for it to be me, someone else, and my cat.
49:34I'm ready.
49:35I'm excited to meet my person.
49:41It's obviously scary having someone else pick your wife for you.
49:48I just walked down the aisle to a stranger who actually is not a complete stranger.
49:54He's been on some shows before.
49:57Oh, my gosh.
49:59This is crazy.
50:09I haven't really had, like, a serious long-term relationship.
50:12Oh, ever?
50:13Yeah.
50:14I see it as a red flag.
50:19Some of the best parts of life are on the other side of risk.
50:22And, I mean, you can't get more risky than this.
50:28Up by your side, I'll be your light.
50:35That is awesome.
50:36That is awesome.
50:37That was great.
50:38I'm Kevin Frazier, and thanks so much for tuning in.
50:40And never stop believing in love.
50:42These people are going to find love.
50:44Trust me.
50:45Good night.
50:46You look good.
50:47You look really good.
50:48Hey, Josh.
50:49Good to see you.
50:50You too, baby.
50:51Cute girl you were with the other guys on the video.
50:52Yeah.
50:53Didn't you?
50:54I don't even know.
50:55It was the video that was sent to me.
50:56Enjoy.
50:57Yeah.
50:58Yeah.
50:59Yeah.
51:00I got a show.
51:01I got a show.
51:02I got a show.
51:03I got a show.
51:04Just live your life.
