In Married at First Sight singles are matched after scientific research, and then – without having met each other – tie the knot. Sounds like crazy, but still enough candidates apply every year. Although the outcome is the same almost every season and the majority still choose to separate.
Also last season, some 1.3 million viewers saw how a few of the participants handed in their wedding ring. Henk was one of them, he reveals in the podcast of Show news. Although he must admit that he has not seen all episodes because ‘quite little happened’. Although that is to the advantage of the makers of the program, according to Henk: “They did it neatly and didn’t let anyone stand out consciously.” During his season it was different.

He doesn’t blame anyone for the fact that it didn’t work between him and Chantal. “The program makers do everything they can to make sure it works, nothing is too much and I have to say that. And then you have to wait and see how it ends (…) They can unleash a thousand scientists, but if that familiar click is not there from the first moment, then I have no more confidence that it will work out later. “
Although their marriage was doomed to fail, it did produce good television and the couple were recognized everywhere in one fell swoop. However, they have never had media training, Henk admits. He therefore thinks that there is still room for improvement for the makers. “I think they can take more care of that,” he says. Henk prefers to watch nowadays Long Live Love. “Strange things also happen there, but it is a lot more successful than Married at First Sight.”
