More than a year and a half after his time on the series, and months after successfully getting an annulment, Michael Watson decided to set the record straight about why he couldn't stop lying. He also talked about the growth he's had since he made those mistakes with the help of his girlfriend Shannon, or "Shay."

After sharing the news that she and Michael Watson of Married at First Sight Season 10 were able to successfully annul their marriage, Meka Jones is celebrating. Literally. 

Meka Jones and Michael Watson of Married at First Sight Season 10 in D.C. were never married. They have the annulment to prove it.

After reliving her eight-week marriage by watching it, Meka told us it was "one of the hardest things I've ever been through in my life."

Michael's sister tells him that if he won't tell Meka the absolute truth, he's only going to keep the marriage from getting better, and in fact, make it worse.

From meltdowns with everyone from their partners to production, and even two husbands leaving, the Married at First Sight couples retreat that was supposed to bring everyone together ended up being a big mess.

From lying about being a yoga instructor to the mileage in his car, we thought we'd take a walk down memory lane to see all of the stories and ridiculous things Michael has said this season.

It feels like plenty of concessions have been made to handle Michael with baby gloves, while Meka has been asked to be nicer to him so that he can open up -- and stop lying.

After he lies about being a yoga instructor, Meka is wondering why Michael keeps telling the oddest stories and half-truths, while he's more concerned about why she keeps telling other people about those lies.

Michael has filed for an annulment from Meka, claiming that he was "defrauded into this process" by producers and experts who just wanted "drama and excitement for television ratings."

They don't have enough time to harp on who said what if they are serious about trying to make their marriage work in eight weeks.

In an exclusive clip, when asked about marital issues with Meka Jones, Michael Watson, who is the first in his family to marry, gets emotional when he talks about the pressure to not fail.
