The honeymoon is over for Married at First Sight’s Chicago couples. And it’s possible their marriages are too. All five pairs are back in the Windy City after their Mexican vacations. As they try to adjust to a new reality as husband and wife, big warning signs are flashing for all the couples.
[Warning: This article contains spoilers for the Nov. 26 episode of Married at First Sight.]
Michelle and David should call it quits
Michelle got the ick on her wedding day when David revealed that he was living with his parents. Her opinion about her new husband didn’t soften during the honeymoon. While he made a valiant effort to get to know her, she was standoffish.
Michelle and David made some small progress in the Nov. 26 episode. They actually seemed to be having fun together when they went stand-up paddleboarding. But being friendly doesn’t mean that Michelle is warming to David romantically. She made it clear she wouldn’t be sharing a bed with him when they moved in together in Chicago. Fortunately, David works nights, so hopefully that means he won’t be relegated to their apartment’s tiny couch.
Right now, it looks like Michelle and David won’t be spending much time together at all. While it would probably be best for Michelle to rip off the band-aid and walk away now, it’s possible that this marriage will limp along for some time, with Michelle and David acting more like roommates than spouses.
The vibes are off for Madison and Allen
We had high hopes for Madison and Allen based on the MAFS matchmaking special. But those appear to have been misplaced. While they’re getting along better than Michelle and David, fitness-focused Madison is finding it difficult to hide that Allen is not what she wants in a partner.
After they return home from the honeymoon, Madison tells her hubby that he’s not measuring up, appearance-wise. It’s a pretty uncomfortable conversation, where she basically calls him an out-of-shape slob with terrible fashion sense. The perfectly normal-looking Allen is obviously and understandably upset. But he tells her wants to look good for her while arguing that he is active, even though he’s not a gym rat.
Unfortunately, Madison already has one foot out the door. On their first night in their apartment, she heads out for drinks with friends, leaving a sad Allen to soak in the hot tub alone. At this point, it seems obvious that Madison will break Allen’s heart, even if she’s not one of the people involved in this season’s cheating scandal.
