Another internet user penned, "What chance does your #MAFS marriage have if you're competing with a producer for your husband's attention? Becca was in it 100%, he was in it for the producer? Someone should have been fired."

Why doesn't Becca like Austin hanging out with her? Why is production allowed to affect the outcome of the experiment? I don't like that!" Another viewer stated, "So the female producer was in on dating Austin AND Brennan?! That’s why their show fails lmaooo."
