Ep 177.  We know the Gender for Both Twins!!
Jamie and Doug recap the events of their first gender reveal, which came back as a boy. Twin no.2 was still unknown, since the early gender test can only pick up male or female, not both. Here all about the intimate party they had, the reaction from the kids, and the exciting news of finding out whether they are identical or fraternal. Later in the episode, Jamie dives deep into her past, and talks about the struggle of a toxic home environment, and what helped her mentally move on from constant chaos, to finding a better, safer, and more peaceful mindset. Doug also shares a memory from their first couple weeks together, when he noticed a shift in Jamie’s thinking. The end of the episode covers a recap of the entire season 17 Married at First Sight. The couple does not hold back with their thoughts on the finale, cast, season, and experts. They also share how hopeful they are for more love to be found on the show! Thank you to the Paired App!

Ep 168 Monumental 10 Year Anniversary Plans and What could Help Fix Success Rate of MAFS Couples
Doug and Jamie discuss their 10 year anniversary plans, and some ideas that came up.  They talk about the possibility of having the 10 Year Vow Renewal open to fans that may want to come celebrate, or possibly doing a live stream.  This is a very big deal for those that have followed Jamie and Doug’s journey from Day 1.  Doug reflects on the fact that fans of the show have been able to watch them get married, fall in love and say I love you to each other for the first time, witnessed both kids being born….So it seems fitting to have a celebration that also includes the Frans that have been with them all these years.  Later in the episode, they talk about the current state of Married At First Sight, and recap the season so far through Ep 15.  Doug proposes an interesting idea to help with the success of more couples staying married at the end of the show.  Could it help if the show style was brought back to its roots?  Less couples interacting and more focus on individual marriages?  Get 20% OFF @honeylove by going to honeylove.com/HMCP #honeylovepod   Learn more about your ad choices.
