NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE: On the most recent episode of 'Married at First Sight,' Season 16, Domynique's mother speaks with her new groom to address their ethnicity and the acceptance surrounding it. Fans believe the conversation was necessary since Mackinley's family may not be fully supportive of the marriage.

Domynique talks to Mackinley's mother and sister, who say they wish he had a more traditional courting but are supportive. Domynique expresses her fear about being accepted as a biracial lady, and Mackinley's family attempts to convince her that she is, but as an outsider, it feels a little lukewarm. Mackinley talks with Domynique's mother in the new 'MAFS' episode, who expresses concern about race and acceptability into his white family, and he attempts to convince her that she would always be accepted.
