'Married at First Sight': Amid annulment news, fans troll Brandon for ticking off Taylor's mother

Brandon Reid filed for an annulment on January 2, even before the wedding episodes aired.

Brandon Reid and Taylor Dunklin got off on a wobbly start. She thought he was awkward, and he was anxious about the whole process. But, they are definitely one of the most interesting couples on 'Married at First Sight' this season. 

Even though they seemed excited to marry a complete stranger when Brandon and Taylor met sparks didn't fly and one could see they were taking their own time to get comfortable with each other. Even when they were left to chat in their room right after the ring ceremony was over, the newly-weds were hardly opening up to each other. However, both didn't lose hope and kept making efforts towards understanding each other. 

In their short chat, they found a common link - liquor and the fact that they were both selling them in their own ways. The conversation moved to Brandon's tattoo, which is a commemorative piece, a way to remember his late brother whom he had lost to gang violence. Cut to, wedding photoshoot. More awkwardness, but they're getting there.

As the first dance began, Taylor instantly knew there was more embarrassment in store because Brandon just couldn't move but she graciously handled the situation, comforted him, told him it was okay for him to feel conscious. Later, they both got to talking with each other's families and you could sense that Taylor's mother was in two minds about their marriage and still unsure how everything would pan out.

However, Brandon was able to convince her that he'd be there for Taylor no matter what. But looks like it's a different story now. On January 2, Brandon filed for an annulment, People reported. "As with any union, some end up happily ever after, and others don’t. Continue to watch MAFS to see what happens with Taylor and Brandon," the channel released a statement. It's not uncommon for couples to file for divorce before the season has ended but this is the first time that news of annulment broke before the wedding episodes could finish airing. 

A source close to the couple told the magazine that Brandon and Taylor share an intense love-hate relationship and it wouldn't be surprising if they were to be back together in the coming weeks. 

Meanwhile, fans can't stop trolling Brandon over his antics -- the one where he smashed his fist into the wedding cake to grab a piece of it -- and how it didn't impress Taylor's mother.

"Taylor is doing great going with the flow, eating the cake out of Brandon's hand. Her mother wasn't feeling it by her facial expression with the other guests #MarriedAtFirstSight #MAFS," a fan wrote. While another posted: "Taylor's mother's not having it. Loved her face when Brandon grabbed the cake in his hand. #MAFS #MarriedAtFirstSight." "Taylor’s mom did not like what Brandon did to that cake. She was standing there all squinted up. Hilarious! #MarriedAtFirstSight," a viewer pointed out.
