Lifetime's Married at First Sight brought to American TV what is widely practiced in many cultures of the world: marrying total strangers after a third party matches them on the basis of certain traits.

Of the five couples that tied the knot in Season 12, three chose to keep the knot intact when the season ended. Virginia Coombs and Erik Lake, Clara Berghaus and Ryan Oubré, and Briana Myles and Vincent Morales said yes on the decision day. But as the sheen of reality TV worn away and real reality set in, two couples chose to call it quits.
