Some season spoilers indicated that Jamie and Doug will document the financial struggle of their marriage, including Doug's reported overdependence on his parents, reported Movie News Guide.

We went through (and are still going through) a lot of hard stuff and didn't know where to turn. I'm a bit dreading watching it back and re-living it all just because it's been so tough," Otis told the magazine.

She continued, "Someone once said to me, "Marriage isn't work. It's love, and if you love someone, it shouldn't be work. I love Doug, and it is a lot of work." For Doug's part, he will confide to a friend that he feels like he is the only one working on the relationship.
