More than 60% of couples gain weight after marriage.

Infact verdict: Mixed (47/100).

The claim that more than 60% of couples gain weight after marriage is not directly supported by the evidence. The available studies focus on the increased risk of obesity in married men compared to unmarried men, but do not provide specific statistics about the percentage of couples gaining weight. The evidence suggests a trend of weight gain in married men, but it does not confirm the specific claim of over 60% of couples gaining weight. Therefore, the claim is not substantiated by the evidence provided.

More than 60% of couples get fat after marriage.
The evidence indicates that married men are more likely to become obese compared to unmarried men, but it does not specify that more than 60% of couples gain weight. The studies focus on men and do not provide comprehensive data on couples as a whole. Therefore, the claim is partially supported but lacks specific statistical backing for the stated percentage.
