Things got particularly messy between one of the couples on the season finale of Lifetime’s Married at First Sight this week.
Contestants Kate Sisk and Luke Cuccurullo announced that, since the season wrapped, they have divorced and are never, ever, ever getting back together.
The premise of the show is pretty straightforward: Producers pair up complete strangers, who agree marry after meeting for the first time and then live together as a couple for eight weeks afterwards.
During last night’s reunion episode, Luke claimed his relationship with Kate broke down because she was constantly pressuring him about sex. Not only that, but sex with her was, in a word, unsatisfying.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“I wasn’t having normal reactions that you would normally have after having sex,” he recalled. “I wasn’t happy. I was sad.”
He added, “I was really mad at myself. I was upset that I was having sex and didn’t want to have sex.”
Sounds awful.
Luke went on to say that, during their honeymoon, he asked Kate if she thought he was gay. Her response caught him completely by surprise.
Kate whipped out her phone and presented him with a list of 40 reasons–40 reasons!–why she thought her husband was into dudes.
“I only brought it up because you said, ‘What? Do you think I’m a homosexual?'” Kate explained during the tense reunion.
“Your Facebook page says you’re interested in men and women and it still says to this day that you’re in a relationship with a man!”
Luke responded by claiming it was a joke between him and one of his college buddies, who both changed their statuses to be “funny,” which only made Kate more upset. She said she was convinced he was “hiding something” about his sexuality.
“I don’t believe it,” she replied. “You have a lot of friends that are gay and I don’t understand how it could be funny for you to put [that] on your Facebook.”
They continued to argue throughout the reunion, but in the end, Luke apologized to Kate for how he treated her.
The moral of the story? So many! But mainly: Don’t marry a complete strange on a reality TV show.

If you don’t want to hear the truth, you shouldn’t ask the question in the first place.

Maybe she is just a really bad lay!

Luke, Luke, Luke. Who cares you’re gay. Come on and step out of your closet if that’s your wish. No need to make such a big production of it.

Does anybody else find it bizarre that heterosexuals go on and on about the sanctity and superiority of “traditional marriage” and yet eat up crap like this and the Bachelor series?
I love the Bachelorette because it is so perverse and sick. It is like watching a monster truck rally, incredibly far removed from reality These superficial heteros have no idea what love, courtship, marriage or relationship is about. Their world ends at the tip of their noses.

Yep. Heterosexuals are the ones that constantly make a total mockery of “marriage” and its supposed sanctity. This show is the epitome of that, but “The Bachelor,” “The Bachelorette,” “90 Day Fiance,” “Bridezilla,” etc. are all on the same spectrum.

I never heard of this show. Now I’m really sorry I know about it.

If I was him, I probably turn gay just because of her.
