Married At First Sightseason 18’s Ikechi Ojoré has been difficult to watch throughout the season, but I’ve changed my mind and believehe’s the worst husband on the series this season because of the way he’s treated Emem Obot. ThroughoutMarried At First Sightseason 18, viewers have gotten the chance to know more about Emem and Ikechi, forming their own opinions about the couple as they’ve moved through the experiment. Though there have been some other difficult cast members introduced throughout the season, Ikechi has been the most difficult to understand as he’s moved through the show’s timeline.
While the drama of the series has been primarily focused on David Trimble and Michelle Tomblin’s difficult relationship,Ikechi has been one of the more domineeringand difficult parts of the season. As a multi-season applicant, Ikechi has been trying to get onMarried At First Sightfor years, and now that he’s finally on the series, I’m afraid he’s an even bigger disappointment than expected. Ikechi’s inability to take accountability has been tough to watch, and that coupled with his treatment of Emem has made him afar worseMarried At First Sighthusband than Davidin my books.

Ikechi Has An Attitude With His Wife Emem
He’s Often Tough To Deal With
AlthoughIkechi and Emem’s marriage seemed like it was going to work well on paper, their common ground and mutual interests weren’t enough to bring the couple together after their wedding ceremony. Whilemany believed Ikechi would enjoy Emem’s driveand independence, it quickly became clear that he wasn’t interested in a spouse who had a mind of their own. Ikechi’s controlling nature and overall red flags have become impossible to ignore as the season has continued on, but the issues he has with Emem are often more front-facing than his failings as a spouse. Ikechi’s difficult behavior is impossible.

Instead, Ikechi is bringing his grievances to the experts andmaking Emem sound far more difficult than she is. Ikechi’s attitude with Emem is the subject of a lot of discussion amongstMAFSfans, especially because he’s been particularly rough with the way he speaks to and about her.

Ikechi Called Emem Aggressive
He’s Trying To Make Her Look Bad
AlthoughIkechi’s had an attitude with Emem in some momentsand chosen to keep his thoughts on her to himself in others, he’s been outward about the issues he has with her when he’s asked. Though Ikechi is surely understanding of the stereotypes that people of color find themselves pigeonholed into both on reality TV and in their daily lives, he’s been open about his feelings,sharing Emem is aggressive with him in moments. Making Emem seem like she’s aggressive, often in a sexual sense or otherwise, has proven to me that Ikechi is simply looking for clout onMAFS.
While Emem has been doing what she can to progress their marriage without much work from Ikechi, his behavior has been a major deterrent to their relationship. Aftercalling Emem sexually aggressive to theMAFSexpertstwice, it became clear that Ikechi was saying whatever he felt like and then walking it back, bringing some drama into their relationship and then casting it away.Ikechi’s ploy to make Emem look like the problemin their relationship backfired when it became clear that she was respecting his boundaries, but trying to move forward in a relationship with her difficultMAFShusband.

Ikechi Isn’t Into His Relationship At All
He’s Not Happy With His Match
After spending the season trying to see if he and Emem were a decent fit, it’s clear thatIkechi isn’t happy with hisMarried At First Sightmatch. My issues with Ikechi come from a few different places, and while I can respect the fact that he doesn’t feel the type of connection he wants to with Emem, I think he’s gone about their relationship the wrong way for someone who clearly doesn’t want to be with his match in the long run.His difficulties with Emem aren’t necessarily inaccurate, but Ikechi’s behavior has been difficult to defend.
Ikechi has tried to make Emem look bad throughoutMarried At First Sightseason 18, ensuring that his relationship wasn’t going to be a good fit from the jump. His level of attitude mixed with the lies he’s told about her behavior has made it obvious that Ikechi doesn’t have the respect or care for Emem that he should as herMAFShusband. Despite knowing that his behavior is reflecting poorly on her,Ikechi is searching for clout instead of love, and in doing so, he’s become the worst husband onMarried At First Sightseason 18.
