Burfoot posted a three-minute Facebook video about her experiences on the show and threatened to sue.
In her video, she mentioned that 'it is quite alarming when you're married to a stranger, when you find out that a lot of these men are actually really dangerous or do have propensity to commit acts of domestic violence.
