Married At First Sight - Season 2 - Ryan DeNino - Jessica Castro - #2 *Sleuthing - Spoilers*

sounproductive wrote:Ok so don't hate me but how many times have we said something in the heat of the moment that wasn't the brightest thing to say in hindsight? I'm not giving Mr. Denino a pass but he is known to run his mouth without regard to the consequences. If I was held accountable for every time I threatened to kill my husband (sidebar: we've been married twice in the span of 18 years and my joke is that there will be no more divorces, only funerals) some lawyer would have a very fancy house on my account. Anyhow, Jess *did* say divorce wasn't in her vocabulary and since it's "til death do they part" maybe Mr. Entrepreneur was just being creative in his solution to dissolve the relationship. (I'm kidding people, kidding. Chill. It'll all be over soon.)

The difference is: running your mouth vs. rage issues and potential for violence
It appears she made it clear at the taping that she didn't consider his threats to be a joke.
So you might make cracks at your husband, but if you were known to get out of control, and you went off to work and sent death threats to your husband, then yeah -- your lawyer gets his house

Digging through his old Myspace account there are photos of someone I'm guessing is his ex (Rachel). Anyone else think it's odd that none of the closeted skeletons have started talking? https://myspace.com/174020617/mixes/classic-my-photos-373017/photo/100189627

IMO I wouldn’t be surprised if even after he allegedly cheated on her in February and allegedly threatened her and her family in March that she continued with the façade of teamdecastro. Not because it didn’t happen but because she wanted the marriage and whatever came professionally. I think since then she has been encouraged and supported by others (i.e. womensupportingwomen) and maybe now has more proof of his behavior towards her. She must know that this could turn out badly professionally and publicly for her if the allegations are false so I’d be shocked if she is making it up. I also think it’s a possibility that he said those things but it was in the heat of the moment and didn’t mean it literally. If that’s the case he obviously wasn’t being mindful of his words.

Knowing she met a hot head, could she not have provoked him and exposed him on TV purposely? She seemed to play the victim a lot, considering she said somewhere that a lot of guys are intimidated of her (somewhere on her Twitter maybe?) Some of their fights on TV were so out there that it almost seemed like she purposely aired private things in front of the camera. Then she continues to tag RyD in her IG posts after the alleged threats happened. They had this terrible passive aggressive back and forth. Why would you keep feeding into that if the person was threatening you and your family?! There's keeping things up for the show and yojr contract's sake, but she always made it a point to tag him or what have you. The timing of the RO, etc. was timed so that she would get a flood of press and popularity right before the reunion (she went from 70k to over 100k followers on IG in a couple of days). Now she's being represented by a famous lawyer and will get a ton more press, maybe sue, etc. She did say she wanted to be a star and be on tv right? It's just a little fishy.

*IMO I Dont think she went into this with the idea of divorcing, getting an RO and needing a lawyer, but it's something to think about.

She didn't make the RO public though, it was Ryan. If he hadn't posted it on IG, we probably wouldn't even know about it at this point, so no, I don't think she did it to gain popularity.

So, I was thinking, they probably aren't going to show the Ryan and Jess stuff tonight, I'll bet they'll wait till next week to show it for ratings. If they do that, it'll make me really mad that they're using her pain for ratings.

Yeah, the more I think it over, the more I think what I wrote is untrue. It definitely had me wondering at first though. All of the guys in this season were goons, IMO, but at least the others aren't abusive like this. I hope Jess is okay. I hope RyD can get some help, too. I don't even know if I want to watch the reunion tonight. Just all around sad.

AE and FYI are apparently showing both parts tonight. May as well put this story to rest, esp. if legal is now involved. The damage control / comment deleting on the MAFS fan FB page has been out of control.

Any thoughts to doing a live Twitter feed during the reunion show? We could come up with our own handy hashtag... #getrealMAFS #realitybites #blindfaith?

Not sure where you saw that. On my Direct TV menu, it is showing (FYI and A&E) that it is just part one tonight. Unless I am missing something...

I think Jess is looking out for Jess, as she should. I'll come back to this. Her day job is as a legal receptionist. She is not unable to access smart legal advice. An experienced matrimonial attorney, perhaps a referral from her employers, has taken her case. I assume as I posted above that her demands are clear: (a) annulment not divorce, with Network and Production on her side; and (b) financial compensation; and (c) safety/accountability as to Ryan.

It wouldn't surprise me if the lawyer Rapaport had interviewed all the brides, potentially would represent more than one, and we are seeing merely the teeny public tip of an iceberg of legal strategy. But that's raw speculation.

Anyway, with all the footage and tape and SM abuse (and probably text messages and voice mails, etc.) Ryan has handed a lawyer an awful lot of leverage against the producers and maybe even the network --- this marriage can dissolve quietly by agreement, or explode and continue to be in the news. Sure, all publicity is good for ratings, but it seems to me that's short-lived and eventually the production company and the networks would not want such tarnishment of brand.

And throw in the experts -- and what they were or were not told when -- and how their reputations are suffering, etc.

She has a ton of leverage, even in the face of reality show contractual disclaimers and caps and what have you.

I didn't know they were showing both parts tonight, how did you find out?
