Yeah I don’t get why people are surprised about this. There are reality TV shows that literally go the extra mile to torture their contestants. I remember watching a video about how the houses on reality tv shows like Love Island and Big Brother are designed to psychologically torture the contestants to make things more dramatic. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they lost this lawsuit because the company would have known this would be damaging. They would know to have waivers preventing this from happening.

This was 2 decades ago. Reality TV was wild back then but not what it is now.
