The Truth About Married At First Sight's Casting Process

Posted by Erma Hippe on Tuesday, May 21, 2024

Did you ever wonder how the experts ensure the singles like what they see when they're walking down the aisle? Well, the show's sexologist makes that happen. "She straight up asked," Cortney Hendrix explained. "'What are you attracted to? Say what you like, say what you don't like ... '" It's because of this intense round of questioning that the Married at First Sight alum has no sympathy for those who whine about their lack of attraction — resulting in many uncomfortable kisses – to their spouse. "Some of these people were like, 'Oh, I'm not attracted to him' ... You were asked and if you didn't say the truth, that's your own fault," she said.

The professionals leave nothing to the imagination in the looks department. They presented Hendrix with a packet full of photos of different men — 100 to be exact. "And we had to go through and rate the people based on physical looks only ... I feel like it was a scale from one to five," she dished. What she didn't know at the time, of course, was that she had rated all the guys on her season, including her future husband.

The experts got something right, because the blushing bride was very attracted to her new groom. From their flirty photo shoot, to the wedding night and sultry honeymoon that followed, there was some major vibing happening.
