‘Married at First Sight’: Chris Williams Disrespects Pastor Cal Roberson

Married at First Sight star Chris Williams nearly blew off his meeting with Pastor Calvin Roberson in this week’s airing of the Lifetime show. Then, Chris tried to shift the blame for his failed marriage onto the experts. But Calvin didn’t take that lying down. Cal called Chris out on his claims.

Married at First Sight: Chris Williams Late to Meet Pastor Cal Roberson

Chris Williams, star of Married at First Sight, was so late to his get-together with Calvin Roberson the producers were about to cut filming when he finally arrived. Producers set the consultation for seven. Pastor Calvin said he didn’t think Chris was coming. He asked if they were calling it off at about a quarter to eight.

Just as the Married at First Sight producers called it quits, Chris Williams walked in with barely an apology to Calvin Roberson for his tardiness. This isn’t the first time he either didn’t show up or was late to an appointment with Calvin. The morning after the pair said their vows, Chris either didn’t attend or cameras didn’t show him having brunch with Paige Banks’ family. All the other couples met with their spouse’s families, but fans noticed Chris did not appear on the show with his wife’s family.

Once the couples returned to Atlanta, Chris changed his flight and went to Chicago instead, leaving Paige Banks to move into their apartment alone. He never did move in, and she stayed in Atlanta alone the entire time. There was a couples’ conference with Married at First Sight expert Calvin Roberson, and Chris Williams was late for that one as well.

MAFS: Chris Blames Failed Marriage on Experts

Chris Williams told Pastor Calvin Roberson the Married at First Sight matchmakers were responsible for his marriage to Paige Banks not working out. He told Calvin they did a poor job finding a wife he was attracted to. He said it shouldn’t be that hard because Atlanta is full of beautiful women. Chris told Calvin he’s not that picky.

Calvin raised his eyebrows at Chris Williams and reminded him he wanted to be part of a power couple. In every other aspect but looks, Paige met his requirements. Calvin Roberson said he didn’t give his marriage a chance to grow in love. Chris argued with Pastor Cal that he did. But by the time the Married at First Sight honeymoon was over, he’d left Paige Banks to reconnect with his ex-fiancee.

Chris also defended his actions toward his ex, Mercedes, to Calvin. Once he learned she was pregnant, he told his wife he was getting back together with her. Then he set up a meeting with Paige and Mercedes on Married at First Sight. But Chris Williams’ ex was adamant they were not getting back together. Regardless, he told Pastor Calvin Roberson he felt he needed to buy her a house and a new car because she’s carrying his “king or queen.”

Married at First Sight: Cal Fights Back

Pastor Calvin Roberson, Married at First Sight expert, tossed Chris Williams’ complaints back in his face. Calvin defended the experts’ choice for Chris. He said it was not true that they picked the one woman he couldn’t be attracted to. He told the experts he wanted a spouse to build an empire with, which they gave him. But he didn’t give her or their marriage a chance, Cal said.

Pastor Calvin also called him out on buying his ex a new Mercedes while he’s still married. Chris said he invited Paige to go with them to buy the car. The Married at First Sight expert, Calvin Roberson, asked Chris Williams how that was supposed to work with his wife tagging along to buy the pregnant ex-fiancee a new car? Chris said it was on Paige, not him, that she wasn’t part of it.

Lifetime’s Married at First Sight expert Calvin Roberson said it was not his “finest hour.” The MAFS star agreed but then said he handled things to the best of his ability. Pastor Cal said he was showing how little he cared for Paige’s feelings. Cal said Paige Banks needs an apology for what he put her through. Chris Williams said he couldn’t apologize to her for that. Calvin said he was looking to find some closure. Will Chris Williams own up to his share of responsibility for his failed marriage?
