Netflix has added Marriage or Mortgage to its reality roster, and many fans think that the show is scripted. The streaming platform has had hit after hit in the past few months, perhaps because more people are tuning in during the lockdown. Hot shows include Selling Sunset, Bling Empire, and Marriage or Mortgage. Known for its fun, interesting, and wholesome vibe, Marriage or Mortgage features co-hosts Sarah Miller and Nichole Holmes (who regrets her own big wedding). The co-hosts guide each of the show's couples through the process of choosing a home or a wedding.
For couples, choosing between marriage or mortgage isn’t simple, and it's possible that some couples made the wrong choices. There are couples who see weddings as symbols of their journeys and celebrations of their lives. To them, a wedding will set a precedent for a life together. For others, a house is a logical starting point for their futures, which most people would agree is a better investment than a wedding. While viewers watch the action unfold, some of them wonder if everything is staged. They speculate that participants already bought homes or agreed on wedding ideas.
Co-hosts Nichole (she's a seasoned real estate agent) and Sarah (who is a wedding expert) have finally spoken out. In an interview with PureWow, they said that the show is real and unscripted. When the viewers are seeing the houses for the first time, the couples are also seeing the houses for the first time. Nichole commented: “For some couples, we thought we knew going in…but then it would shock me when they’d pick marriage or vice versa.” Nichole also said that although they were found through a casting agency, the couples did become real clients of theirs. Nichole added, “Just like in real estate, you’re not going to have someone buy a house from you and never talk to them again.”
There has been a lot of doubt surrounding the show being real or fake, and Nichole and Sarah have made it clear that the stories viewers watch are true and authentic. Many of those stories tugged at viewers' heartstrings. Who can forget Brittany and Scott, who shared the story of Brittany's late grandfather? The reality show is a great home show, with an added layer of tension, as couples are navigating important decisions that will impact their futures. An important part of why this show works is the way that they tell each couples' story. The pairs feel like real people who are relatable. Marriage or Mortgage highlights issues that people deal with in the real world.
The show has a lot of fans, despite the gossip about it being scripted, so many viewers are hoping for a second season. Marriage or Mortgage has stirred up a lot of conversation about hard economic truths, including the fact that plenty of couples can’t afford to get married and buy houses. However, on the surface, the show is light and a great way to pass the time.
