Chris Williams' story is yet to begin and yet he is one of the most talked-about men from the crop selected to participate in the social experiment that is 'Married at First Sight'. He has made enemies out of the viewers simply by saying: "I want my wife to be submissive, a freak." Chris a gift that keeps on giving. As if riling people up with his money talk wasn't enough, Chris went on to talk about how if now-wife Paige Banks turned out to be "ugly" then he wouldn't know what to do. 

Now, fans have dug up some dirt on Chris and his dark past. He was engaged to a woman named Mercedes Myrick and there's one whole video to prove it. The clip begins with a date and if it were any true, he popped the big question in February 2020. In addition to this, he also apparently got her pregnant when he signed up for the show, MAFS fan account had reported. 



 

Chris and Paige are yet to meet on the show. Theirs is one of the last two weddings that are left to air. While Paige is a bundle of nerves, Chris cannot keep calm thinking what she looks like and that had fans miffed. They are now blaming the experts for putting people like him on 'MAFS'. 

"The experts are either extremely negligent or evil for putting Chris and "men" like him on the show. #MarriedAtFirstSight," a user pointed out, another shared: "I think what #MAFS is doing to Paige for ratings is shameful. She really wants a match and there's no way any sane "Expert" or amateur would match Chris with anybody. This is stricly for ratings and sadly Paige will end up getting hurt."



 



 

"What's Pastor CAL's @ I have a few questions I need answered as a matter fact I need ALL their @'s #MarriedAtFirstSight the more I think about it, the more PISSED I get. Why did they attach Chris to anyone let alone Paige," a fan asked on Twitter. "I am really worried that Paige is going to get her heart broken. Chris is just not likeable. I've tried. Maybe ill change my mind later. Its still early. #MarriedAtFirstSight," another expressed.
