CHICAGO, ILLINOIS: 'Married At First Sight' Season 18 star Madison exchanged vows with Allen Slovick after experts matched the duo considering the couple's expectations. However, it seemed like the bride lied to the experts notably to be cast on the Lifetime show. Madison has been known to have a specific type in men and Allen is way far from her type.

When experts asked her what she was looking for in her partner, she pretended to have minimal and claimed to be open to something understanding and loving, who values emotional connection over physical appearance. However, she presented expectations that were definitely not true as she previously dated only athletic men.

Meanwhile, Allen holds a charming personality without any hunky muscles. Additionally, Madison's family also confessed during their wedding reception that they were initially surprised he was chosen to be her husband since he was a far cry from the men she dated in the past. Lifetime show experts have often been blamed for the failed marriages on the show, but some of the contestants are also at fault.
