Married At First Sight Interview: Emem & Ikechi Interview (Did The Cheating Scandal Impact Their Experience?)
Married At First Sight season 18 has been showing off the weddings for the newly matched pairs, but will Emem and Ikechi’s match get impacted by the season’s major cheating scandal? Throughout Married At First Sight season 18, viewers have been looking for clues about who will be involved in the cheating scandal that’s been teased for the season. While little information has been provided to viewers, it’s known that two participants will leave their original couples and a wife-swap will take place. Although it’s unclear who’s involved, interesting theories have been floated by MAFS viewers after the first episodes.
MAFS season 18 has been under a serious amount of scrutiny from viewers, who are hopeful that things are changing for the series. After years of the Married At First Sight experts making unsuccessful matches that lead to relationships being called off long before Decision Day, viewers have been waiting for a change and hoping that the experts do something different. While Married At First Sight season 18 may not wind up being that different than the last seasons of the series in terms of drama, it’s possible there are couples who make it to the end and last.
Throughout the first episodes, the MAFS season 18 cast has slowly but surely been introduced and their weddings have been featured throughout the opening episodes. As viewers get to know the couples better, they’ve been hedging their bets on who will be part of the cheating scandal, and who will stay out of the drama. Though Ikechi was a MAFS groom that many were curious about pre-season, his match-up with Emem seems like a solid one. The couple took the time to chat with Screen Rant separately to share about their MAFS experiences and gave a few interesting hints.
Screen Rant: Why did you decide to apply for Married At First Sight?
Emem: I thought it would be an exciting experience. And I was open to the opportunity of meeting a great person with the help of the experts.
Ikechi: I’ve prayed to meet my wife, wrote a book to her, manifested her and MAFS seems to be a part of that manifestation.
