Some Married at First Sight couples seemed doomed from the moment they said "I do," whether because of a lack of attraction or deceitful partners. Other couples have become fan favorites for proving that the unconventional process of marrying a stranger can lead to lasting relationships.
Married at First Sight does not have a great track record of couples staying together after Decision Day, and there were some divorces that fans could see coming from a mile away. There are many times on Married at First Sight when one person is more attracted to their spouse than vice versa, which usually results in a messy journey for the couple.
Many participants on the show have been accused of using the series to become famous, rather than looking for a genuine connection. While some couples shock fans by ending their marriages on Decision Day, others seem destined for divorce from the very beginning. These couples can be found throughout the 14 seasons of the hit reality show.
Ashley Doherty And David Norton
Ashley and David met for the first time as she walked down the aisle on Married at First Sight season 3. From her first glimpse of her husband, Ashley made it clear that she did not find David very attractive, giving fans little hope that their MAFS relationship would last. While it came as a shock that David allegedly cheated on Ashley during filming, it was no surprise that the pair chose to divorce at the end of their season.
Paige Banks And Chris Williams
Paige and Chris had one of the most turbulent relationships in MAFS history. The season 12 couple seemed doomed from the get-go after Chris said that he did not find Paige attractive. Chris became one of the most hated MAFS cast , as he had just gotten out of a relationship before coming on the show, did not treat Paige well, and continued to string her along when he said his ex-girlfriend was pregnant. After their first night together, Chris seemed disinterested in Paige, making it unlikely that their relationship would ever last.
Alyssa Ellman and Chris Collette
On Married at First Sight season 14, Alyssa and Chris were yet another married couple that fans never thought would stay together. Alyssa was immediately upset by her husband's looks and personality. After storming off and staying in a separate room on their wedding night, Alyssa spent their entire honeymoon dodging Chris unless they were in a group setting. She did not put any effort into their marriage, and tried to argue that they should take turns using the Married at First Sight designated housing. Fans could see their divorce coming from the first night, and they did not even make it to Decision Day.
