On the latest season finale episode of 'Addicted to Marriage', Joe finally gets down on one knee and pops the big question to Shae, complete with a perfect proposal on a boast by sunset, an ornate diamond ring, and flowers. 

Literally a day after their engagement, Shae puts forth a contract to Joe, and at first, it seemed like it was just pages of nuptials, but no. Shae wants Joe to sign documents titled, 'Unlimited spending' so that she doesn't have to think twice about shelling out the big bucks for the lavish and luxurious life she wants to have for herself. Tip of the iceberg, Shae!

Almost immediately as a reflex, Joe denies her wants, but Shae isn't done yet. Her ultimatum is that if he doesn't sign the papers, Shae will call of both the engagement AND the relationship. Definitely didn't see that coming! But of course, things don't end here. The two come to a compromise in the end, with Joe being the one who had to give in. Here's what fans think about the season finale episode of 'Addicted to Marriage'. 

One fan said, "If Joe signs Shae’s marriage contract, who knows what he’ll get himself into… #AddictedToMarriage", while another shared, "Shae isn't hiding the fact that she wants nothing but money. If you have to force, demand, and guilt a man into marriage clearly you want something they have that will benefit you. Number 10 just proved that #AddictedtoMarriage".

One fan tweeted, "#AddictedToMarriage Joe should not sign that "F"ING Contract! Shae Crazy As Hell ...", while another said, "This chick and this marriage contract… #addictedtomarriage".
