In a recent episode of Outnumbered, panelists discussed Sara Carton's decision to leave her fiancé Ben Mezzenga at the altar due to differing political beliefs. Carton expressed that values and a shared worldview were crucial for her in a partner. During their discussions, she was troubled by Mezzenga's reluctance to engage with significant issues such as Black Lives Matter and church views on sexual identity. While the panel largely criticized her choice, Jeremy Hunt sympathized, emphasizing the importance of compatible beliefs in marriage for long-term success.

When I asked him about Black Lives Matter, and I'm no expert. But when I asked him about it, he's like, I guess I never really thought too much about it.
If you're about to marry someone, make sure it's someone who has the same worldview as you, same religious beliefs. That was very important for me.
It's hard to raise kids without having the same kind of worldview.
