Ever since their honeymoon fiasco, Brandon Reid and Taylor Dunklin have not been on the same page. It was a tough few weeks for the couple on 'Married At First Sight,' who constantly battled the pressures of staying together. Maybe, they weren't ready for it because even if they were, their efforts to achieve the 'happily ever after' milestone don't seem to be working well in their favor.

They often have open and honest conversations with each other, but those moments never culminate into something concrete. They always leave their differences unresolved and chat on a bitter note. Even at the retreat, they tried communicating their concerns but it escalated into a massive fight, which also involved a part of the production team. 

Taylor drove all the way to Washington D.C. to hang out with her friends and later slept at one of her friend's hotel only to realize later that Brandon had to be informed. This put him off to no end. In Brandon's green-room interview, he said he doesn't like people who go out with their friends every night. For him, it's a deal-breaker because it meant that his wife wanted to live the single life. 

At the couple's retreat, he even sat with Michael Watson, one of the other husbands, and shared with him how he had been feeling about his equation with Taylor and that it wasn't going anywhere because Taylor and he couldn't strike a balance, be in it together. "Maybe, she is not ready to be married," Brandon said. Instead of chatting with his wife, he shares his marital issues with him.

After the dinner and drinks were over, Taylor sat with Brandon trying to have a good conversation that snowballed into a massive spat that caused him to remove his mic. He even refused to be filmed and got into an argument with the filming and production team, which was totally unnecessary. 

Meanwhile, fans have been trolling Brandon and Michael, they say the two have been matched as a couple after their deep conversation about Brandon's married life.

"When are Brandon and Michael just gonna go ahead and get together? They want each other and would make a cute couple #MarriedAtFirstSight," a fan wrote, while another shared: "michael and brandon are my favorite couple this season."

"Plot twist: Brandon and Michael were on a couple's retreat of their own. #MAFS #MarriedAtFirstSight," another fan expressed. "Michael and Brandon should get married to each other, they obviously like men #MarriedAtFirstSight," a user expressed.
