Season 5 participant Renee Poche sued Netflix and production company Delirium TV in January claiming she was forced to participate on the show and move forward in her engagement to ex-fiancé Carter Wall. The lawsuit will be heading to arbitration.Joelle Goldstein is a Staff Editor on the TV team for PEOPLE Digital.
Delirium’s attorneys, Larry Iser and Allen Secretov of Kinsella Holley Iser Kump Steinsapir LLP, shared a statement reacting to the ruling. The press release also states that “Ms. Poche was asked to stop her unauthorized interviews and promptly mediate the dispute, and she was repeatedly warned, by production personnel as well as by Delirium’s lawyers, that her continued breaches of the participant agreement would result in Delirium filing arbitration.”
"Production was insistent that all participants had been vetted and were ‘marriage material,'" the complaint stated.
