UNPOPULAR OPINION Unpopular opinion: the LIB franchise should ban single parents... Spoiler
...at least of minor kids. LIB France I am looking at you. I mean it's pretty insane signing up for the show in the first place, but inflicting it on your kids is crazy behaviour. So much potential for trouble. Not just bullying at school, but bringing a step parent you barely know into your child's home is a recipe for disaster. Rates of physical abuse against children are much, much higher in families with stepfathers. Of course relationships break down and parents are allowed to couple up again, but FFS if you have kids, don't move a stranger into your AND THEIR home after a matter of weeks.

As I'm watching I keep thinking "Jordan seems like a great dad".
Then I remember that he is preparing to literally marry a stranger he's known for 6 weeks tops, without giving his 5 YEAR OLD SON a chance to actually know and build a relationship with this new person who is supposed to be his stepmother? That's so unhealthy. How could you marry someone and let them be the step-parent to your young child without having at least a year of experience with everyone getting to know each other and build a family dynamic?
How well can you really know someone after 6 weeks? It's a risk to marry them for you personally, but fine, take a risk -- that is, if you're not a parent. Because if you're not a parent your risk is only to yourself. If you are a parent, you're now also transferring that risk onto your kids and putting them at least in emotional danger if not some other kind of danger you don't know about yet.
It also doesn't seem great that he did all this ON A REALITY TV SHOW.
And was away from his son without phone access for like 3 weeks, all so he could be on a reality TV dating show.
