'Married at First Sight': Bennett doesn't want to have kids as it's not 'ethical', will it push Amelia away?

They seem to be a pair who are willing to have an open communication about everything. However, fans are worried that Bennett's stance on children could stand in way of a perfectly happy relationship

'Married at First Sight' Season 11 couple Bennett Kirschner and Amelia Fatsi are turning out to be one of the fan favorites. Their quirkiness is what makes them stand out. In this week's episode of the show, we see glimpses of that when Bennett and Amelia meet with each other's families. However, interacting with the in-laws can put one on the edge.

One can tell, Amelia was experiencing an awkward excitement while seeing his folks for breakfast within hours of getting married. It was going to be a no-holds-barred conversation, allowing the couple and their families to understand the future of the marriage and how it's going to shape up. 

But, as they chatted, Bennett's sister informed that he doesn't want to have biological kids and thought adoption is a better way to grow a family. Amelia was visibly stunned because she didn't hear it from her husband first and wanted to discuss the topic with him before anyone else can assess what the couple has in mind in terms of having kids. 

Later, the couple had a detailed conversation about the same during which Bennett, in clear terms, said that he doesn't think having one's own kids is "ethical" given overpopulation and how people don't have homes to live. But Amelia wants to have kids. 

Will this be a deal-breaker in their marriage? Let's hope not. They seem to be a pair who are willing to have an open communication about everything. However, fans seem to be worried that it could stand in way of a perfectly happy relationship.

"Bennett’s Sister is out of pocket for telling Amelia about him not wanting kids .. #MarriedAtFirstSight." wrote a fan. 

"I swear to all things holy that if having/not having biological kids comes between Amelia and Bennett I’m giving up on this show. Those 2 loveable weirdos are meant to be. #MarriedAtFirstSight," wrote another. 

A fan commented, "This children talk should've been between Amelia & Bennett, not Bennett's family & Amelia #MarriedAtFirstSight."

"Bennett sister is upsetting me and my homegirls. We saw her front, side and under boob at the wedding, she gifts Amelia a lollipop, and gives out info Bennett should’ve said himself. Not a fan! #mafs #MarriedAtFirstSight," wrote another. 

"I think Amelia should have heard that from Bennet first...but oh well. #MarriedAtFirstSight," a fan tweeted.
