Married At First Sight Works…Occasionally

MAFS fans sometimes claim that counselors on the Lifetime show put the most unlikely couples together. The show selects applicants and then pairs them off, based on their questionnaires, and more. However, often, things just work pan out that easily. In fact, more than once along came an episode titled about divorce. Notable, back in Season 11, an episode carried the title“We Need To Get A Divorce.” Given that the couples never set eyes on their partner until they walked down the aisle, it’s hardly a massive surprise when things don’t work out.

The news that Married At First Sight couple Jose San Miguel Jr. and Rachel Gordillo decided on divorce came via People Magazine. The outlet reported on December 10, that they said in a joint statement, “After much thought, we have decided that we are better off going our separate ways.” Well, it sounds like they didn’t rush into the decision, but eventually, they decided to take the best option for themselves. The statement noted that they felt very grateful for all the support they received from fans.
