Carlos, who proudly reps his Detroit roots, made it clear that this show is personal for him. “I’m from Detroit,” he said. “So for me, it’s a love letter to my city.” He emphasized that this season not only highlights the couples’ journeys but also shines a light on the strength, beauty, and evolution of Detroit itself—going beyond the common narrative of abandoned buildings and economic decline.
What sets Love & Marriage: Detroit apart from other entries in the franchise is the strong faith of its cast. “They all are faith-based couples,” King said. “God is first and foremost in their lives.” He explained that this spiritual foundation influences how the couples communicate, work through challenges, and uplift each other—not just in their marriages, but also in their friendships and personal growth.
Griff jokingly called King “messy in the best way,” referencing his skill at crafting gripping storylines without losing the show’s sense of heart. King embraced the compliment with a laugh, especially as he teased a rollercoaster plot involving one of the show’s central couples.
