Married at First Sight LIVE Mack 'blindsides' Clint after sliding into co-star's DM's ahead of D

MaFS application process includes physical & psychological exams

Background checks are followed by further application stages that take a closer look at the applicant, according to Cosmopolitan.

Producers rapidly weed out those aiming for fame from the show and only accept those who are sincerely seeking love and a fulfilling marriage as applicants.

The qualified candidates also go through thorough psychological and physical examinations.

Pastor Calvin Roberson, a show counselor, explained to ET: “We’re looking at things like their psychological testing, their core values… These are legally binding marriages. Annulment is not an option.”

MaFS has an exhaustive application process

Be ready to go through an extremely rigorous application process if you’re ever interested in appearing on Married at First Sight.

The show’s producers take the coupling seriously and go to great lengths to get rid of anyone who might be potentially dangerous to other contestants.

Following the completion of the application, each applicant undergoes a strict background investigation, during which their whole criminal history will be combed through, ET reported.

Additionally, credit checks are performed to estimate any outstanding obligations you might have because producers do not want to pair you up with someone who will have to deal with significant debt from the beginning.

However, before further thorough investigations are finished, this is merely the initial stage of the application procedure.
