Things were anything but great between Madlyn Ballatori and Colby Kissinger when they decided to join Netflix's reality dating show 'The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On'. After dating for a little over a year and a half, Colby was more than ready to marry Madlyn, but unfortunately, she wasn't sure if he was the right person for her. During this tumultuous time, Madlyn found herself feeling drawn to co-star Randall Griffin. 

Randall and Madlyn hit it off almost instantly, and their relationship was further strengthened when they moved in together. But after their trial marriage, Madlyn went back to Colby and things didn't go down well between the couple. Colby and Madlyn constantly kept getting into fights and Madlyn began toying with the idea of leaving him. While Madlyn went back and forth with her decision to marry Colby, he, on the other hand, was always very clear about wanting to get married to her. Madlyn noticed this clarity in him, and when it was finally time for her to decide if she wanted to marry him, she said yes.
