Married at First Sight’s Brittany is still processing her marriage and subsequent divorce from Will.
“How we broke up, I started to realize, ‘I don’t think he was ever really ready for marriage anyway,’” Brittany shared on the Wednesday, November 26, episode of the “What’s the Reality?” podcast. “I think in the way that we broke up, and it was so abrupt, and he was able to just completely detach himself from me — that’s not someone who wanted to be married in the first place.”
During season 19 of Married at First Sight, the show’s experts, including Pastor Cal Roberson, Dr. Pepper Schwartz and Dr. Pia Holec, matched Brittany and Will as future spouses and sent them down the aisle to get married without ever meeting each other beforehand.
On the morning of Decision Day — which occurs eight weeks after the wedding day — Will called his wife to reveal his intentions to break up. While the experts ultimately persuaded the pair to stay together, both Brittany and Will confirmed they split in the reunion episode.

When podcast host Amber Desiree “AD” Smith asked if Will wasn’t ready for marriage or wasn’t ready for Brittany, the Peacock reality star shared her thought process.
“In the moment, I definitely thought it was me,” she explained, before sharing her view that Will struggled to open up. “That was me actually internalizing a lot of things. He never said, ‘Maybe I’m just not ready for this’ or, ‘You’re too much.’”
Brittany continued, “For me, I wear everything on my sleeve. I wear everything on my face. If I’m happy, you know it. If I’m sad, you know it. For him, I don’t know if he’s happy or mad or sad because he’s just here on and off cameras.”

In a previous episode of Married at First Sight, Will shared his own concerns about the marriage before calling it quits.
During a scene, the tech consultant expressed his belief that he wasn’t heard during the marriage.
“I love her and I adore her,” he said in episode 12. “But I can’t be in a relationship where I’m constantly told that my feelings don’t matter.”
Although Brittany said she was “completely” blindsided by the twists and turns of Decision Day, her faith has allowed her to move on from the split.
“New place, new car, new job, newness, [I] lost 30 pounds,” she shared on Wednesday’s podcast. “It’s been really great.”
Will and Brittany weren’t the only couple to call it quits in season 19. Although all five couples were still together on Decision Day, the reunion show — hosted by Kevin Frazier — revealed that all matches had separated.

Thankfully, season 20 is coming sooner rather than later. On November 21, Peacock released a first look at a brand-new season, which includes a groom who has “been on some shows before” while another suitor has never been in a serious long-term relationship.
“I see it as a red flag,” one bride shares after hearing the confession.
