Till Death Do Us Pod - S4 Episode 6 - Melissa Lucarelli, Married at First Sight Australia

This week we interviewed the lovely Melissa Lucarelli from season 6 of Married At First Sight Australia! As you know, I was not a big fan of this series when it first aired, but Mike and I carried on watching and Mel soon became our favorite contestant with her realness, big persona and infectious laugh. In this episode we asked her everything you want to know - is the show scripted? Were the weddings real? Were the flats sets or people's actual homes and so much more. We also talked about her "role" in the show and how the women were portrayed compared to the men. For me personally this was a major issue I had with the show - the women were portrayed as over the top, manic, and unstable, whereas the men were portrayed as poor little victims. It was interesting to hear her thoughts on this as someone who was part of the experiment itself. I also think that not many people who do reality TV come out on the other side as well as Mel did. Not only did her true colors shine through on screen, it was nice to see she has stayed down to earth despite the fame surrounding the show. Little warning though - lots of spoilers in the episode, so if you're watching and you're behind, or if you've only just started watching the show please bear that in mind!
