Sharing food is a gesture of love and McDonald's wants people to keep nurturing meaningful connections and nourishing one another with the "Pre-Nug Agreement." The chicken sharing contract invites best friends or partners to make a pact to one another and commit to their shared love of nuggets. McNuggets lovers who sign the Pre-Nug Agreement via a custom filter on Instagram gain access to prizes.
This contract devised by McDonald’s and Leo Burnett inspired a reality TV-style film directed by Tom Speers, and a stunt involving "leaked images" from influencer Millie Court leading her followers to believe she possessed a pre-nuptial agreement and the intent to marry fellow ex-Love Islander and boyfriend Liam Reardon. In reality, Court signed a Pre-Nug Agreement with her best friend Chloe Burrows.
