The three women we have spoken to are all making allegations about the men they were partnered with and said that they are speaking to the BBC because they feel they should have been better protected. One said she wants CPL to stop "allowing harm to come to people".

One woman said her onscreen husband raped her and threatened her with an acid attack. She now wants to pursue legal action against CPL

A second woman told both Channel 4 and CPL, before broadcast, about being allegedly raped by her onscreen husband. Her episodes were still aired

A third woman accused her onscreen husband of sexual misconduct.

Yeah, reading about this, it sounds like a fair amount of Stockholm Syndrome elements occur, and then they want victims to be straightforward about what happened to them. I've never been a fan of reality shows, but these types seem especially bad.

Sounds like a lot of rape situations in general, not just on reality tv honestly.
