Taylor, however, revealed to her pals in the clip she and Brandon had been sleeping in the same bedroom.
"Have they consummated their marriage?" Unfiltered host Jamie Otis asked Meka, who developed a strong friendship with Taylor over the course of the Married at First Sight season because their husbands were often absent or indifferent towards them.
"I'm not in their bedroom so I can't really talk 100 percent, but she's told me 'no,' so I believe her," Meka replied.
"[But] you never know 100 percent because I'm not in the bedroom, so."
Jamie then asked Austin Hurd, who joined Meka on the Unfiltered episode, to share his thoughts on Taylor and Brandon staying together.
"I mean, this has been confusing I guess from my perspective looking into it. I mean, I don't know, [Brandon] was always such a chill dude, and I guess that honeymoon in Panama flipped a switch for me where I just can't get a good read on it," Austin said.
Austin was referring to Brandon's outburst during the couples' last day in Panama when he lashed out at production for following him around, which resulted in Brandon yelling and cursing at Taylor when she attempted to calm him down.

"That's just my perspective," Austin noted. "I don't talk to Brandon like the girls talk. So, yeah, it's hard for me to read."
Jamie agreed, "Me too."

Brandon flipped out again during the couples' retreat after a heated argument with Taylor over her decision to spend the night in a hotel with her friends.
Brandon was so frustrated with Taylor and production that he took it upon himself to remove his microphone, which a producer asked him not to do since it wasn't his property.
Brandon went on to taunt and berate the producer named Leif. After also screaming at Taylor to leave him alone, Brandon left the couples' retreat early and never returned.
Taylor and Brandon reconciled and attempted to work out their issues once they returned to their apartment in Washington, D.C., but Taylor wasn't even sure Brandon would show up to their final meeting with the Married at First Sight experts and enough damage had already been done.
On "Decision Day," which aired on Wednesday night's episode on Lifetime, Taylor said she never really felt supported or protected in her marriage. She never felt like she could depend on Brandon, and she added that Brandon ignored her a lot.

"We've had some good times. I feel like you're on the brink of starting more communication, but um, with all the things that have transpired, it might not be the best for us to try to continue," Taylor announced. "With that being said, I would like to get a divorce."
"I'm over it," Brandon said, before jetting out of the room. "I'm over all of this."

"I got into this to find my soul mate and I wanted to be happy... but this is over and done with. I am ready to move on with my life. I wish her nothing but the best, but love don't live here no more," Brandon said.
Meka also chose to divorce her husband Michael Watson on "Decision Day," which was about two weeks after Mindy Shiben ended her marriage to Zach Justice.
Two couples, however, opted to stay married at the end of the Married at First Sight 10 experiment: Katie Conrad and Derek Sherman as well as Jessica Studer and Austin Hurd.
