The cast members of Married At First Sight have always had big personalities, so shade is an inevitable part of the process when the tensions rise and conflict intensifies. Over the years, contestants have thrown shade not only at their partners but also at other couples in the franchise.
Sometimes, due to the pressure of Married At First Sight, contestants tend to throw shade whether intentionally or not. In recent seasons, the MAFS stars have not been scared to hold back on exactly how they are feeling. While others have bolted under the pressure of the process, some are guilty of being incredibly shady, doing things such as cheating, lying, and not coming home in over 48 hours. However, these are the more severe cases of shady behavior.
Briana Myles
Briana Myles was never scared to say exactly what she was thinking or feeling, even when her husband Vincent Morales did not appreciate her comments. When the couple was at their home and Vincent opened a bottle of champagne and it spilled, Briana made a few comments that did not sit well with him. This was not the only time Briana had something to say. When Vincent was sleeping in, she tried to tell him to sleep earlier so that he would wake up earlier. Briana is not the shadiest one in the bunch, but she has a bit of shade in her.
Jacob Harder
Jacob Harder never held back when it came to conversations with his ex-wife, Haley Harris. It is no secret that both of them were not exactly happy with one another. As the weeks went by, they became more disinterested in one another, and Jacob found it difficult not to make snide remarks. In the end, when the couples were asked what they learned from the process, Jacob responded with shade and said nothing, which peeved off Haley.
Jamie Thompson & Elizabeth Bice
Between Jamie Thompson and Elizabeth Bice, these two had shade-throwing matches like no other couple in the history of Married At First Sight. They both did not know when to stop, and at times, their relationship felt very toxic. The fans may remember when Jamie asked Elizabeth, “If anyone can go to college why did you not finish.” Jamie did not hold back when it came to their fights and Elizabeth came back just as strong. Elizabeth and Jamie were perfect from the jump because the experts could not have paired them with people who would have been able to stand their shade-throwing. Fans of Married At First Sight will remember this iconic line, “I’m tired of basic Caucasian sex.” It was random, unnecessary, and unexpected. However, Jamie was always as entertaining as Elizabeth.
Matt Gwynne
There is a consensus amongst fans that Matt Gwynne is one of the worst husbands to ever participate in Married At First Sight. The former pro basketball player’s behavior was dubious and shady. He would leave home and come back after 48 hours, lie about where he had been, and even flirted with girls when he went out. It was apparent that he was not ready for marriage. Matt didn’t even invite his parents to the wedding. His behavior affected his marriage and his wife Amber Bowles, hence why he may be the shadiest cast member.
