The Married at First Sight producers are keenly aware that despite their best efforts, not every couple is going to spend the rest of their lives together. To accommodate this, the show makes it as easy as possible for the couples to divorce, including having them sign a prenuptial agreement before they walk down the aisle.
"We want to give them some protection walking in," the show's executive producer, Chris Coelen, told The Wrap. "If for some reason it does not work out, at least you are protected with this basic form. You are not going to get yourself into any legal trouble. Once they are in to the marriage, everything is completely up to them."
As for the contents of the prenup itself, Coelen explained that it is "very short" and "brief," explaining, "It basically says what they walk into [the marriage with] is what they walk out of the marriage with." So while the process of getting married and divorced via reality television may be draining emotionally, at least it won't be financially.
