Andrew Jury, a participant in the inaugural season of 'Married at First Sight New Zealand, has died.
He was 33.
According to his father, Roy Jury, Andrew died last Thursday at the Mt Eden Corrections Facility in Auckland, New Zealand, as reported by 'The New Zealand Herald.'
The circumstances surrounding Andrew's death remain ambiguous and corrections officers purportedly made urgent efforts to revive him.

In 2017, Andrew gained recognition on 'MAFS,' a reality dating program where participants are paired based on scientific matchmaking techniques and marry on their initial meeting.
