Why did Cameron Frazer and Clare Kerr get divorced? 'MAFS' Season 17 groom claims to have a 'heart condition' after split

'MAFS' Season 17 couple Cameron Frazer and Clare Kerr are splitting over lack of intimacy

DENVER, COLORADO: 'MAFS' Season 17 couple Cameron Frazer and Clare Kerr decided to get a divorce just a month after getting married.

The couple decided to separate ways as they lacked a physical connection and also disagreed over how to raise their future children when it comes to religion.

Clare wanted to develop a physical relationship with Cameron and claimed, "I didn't sign up for a platonic marriage... [but] I'm not a quitter. I think it's important that we try everything." The couple tried to work on the relationship until their one-month anniversary. The couple were not on the same page on various subjects of their relationship and Cameron finally decided to move out from Clare's apartment. 

After Cameron moved out, Clare was upset and claimed she wasn't shocked because he was getting attached to her and she wasn't feeling him. Clare also confessed to the cameras, "I don't like feeling like I can't meet him where he's at." Clare added, "He's a great person and I want to be able to get there, but it's just been a lot for me mentally."

However, Cameron claimed that he developed a heart condition after he moved out of Clare's place. He told the cameras, "Since I moved out, I've developed a heart condition." He questioned, "Did the stress of my separation from Clare lead to this heart problem?" Cameron further noted, "Maybe it accelerated it."

Clare Kerr breaks down after Cameron Frazer rejects physical intimacy

During the Afterparty, Clare Kerr broke down in tears as she recalled Cameron Frazer rejecting having s*x with her. She claimed, "There was a time when I tried to have sex with him, and he full-on rejected me." Clare claimed that she had made the move on Cameron after she realized there was 'a disconnect' in their values and the 'chemistry was a little off' in their relationship.

She then recalled a night out with other 'MAFS' Season 17 couples and they had a conversation about our relationships. She shared with them, "I just said, 'We are struggling. I don't know what to do.' It was basically SOS to the other couples." Clare further recalled, "And the advice was, 'If you're attracted, you need to continue to try.' And so that's when I went home."

She continued, "He wasn't out with us that night, and so I tried to initiate intimacy and it was met with, 'Eww, I'm sorry. This is not... I can't do this right now.'" However, therapist Keshia asked Clare to confirm that Cameron had really said, 'Eww,' to her, and Clare replied, 'Mhmm. Yeah.'

Clare further claimed, "When I was trying to be intimate with him, he was so not wanting that from me. I think the hardest thing, too, is a lot of this was off-camera because he made me feel like I shouldn't be discussing this on-camera."
