Katie and Derek from Married at First Sight, season 10 went their separate ways after the series

Katie had her second thoughts prior to appearing on the famed Lifetime reality Tv series. She had a bunch of unresolved issues from her past and her ex-boyfriend also urged her to stay back so they could work things out. While the Married at First Sight star contemplated doing so, she decided to jump the gun and appear on the show.

When Derek heard this, he was disappointed, to say the least. But they still decided to get married. They went on their honeymoon and tried to make things work.

Sadly, as Katie started to learn more about Derek, she felt that her outlook had changed from what she had imagined earlier. It became difficult for the couple to find common ground with each other. That's when arguments started to unravel.

The experts urged Katie and Derek to find something they liked to do together, but sadly Katie couldn't get herself to agree with her husband's goals. Katie didn't like the way Derek gave his co-stars attention. Meanwhile, Derek assumed that Katie was still not over her ex.
