Former Married At First Sight star Alyssa Barmonde has revealed the surprising drinking rule cast members must follow at the dinner parties.
The 36-year-old single mother, who appeared on last year’s season of the show, told Yahoo’s Behind the Edit podcast, the cast are limited on how much alcohol they can consume.
She explained the show’s producers ‘monitor your alcohol content’.
‘If you’re too drunk, they can’t use your footage. So if you’re slurring your words and you’re really messy, they can’t use that footage,’ she said.
‘At dinner parties, we usually maybe only had one carafe of red wine, rosé and white wine and that’s it.’
