The next season of Married At First Sight could be one of the most controversial reality shows of all time, with the 2025 show facing multiple scandals throughout production. Six cast members have left the show in the first two weeks since filming began in July, others have been photographed running away from the show’s apartment, and ex-lovers have “coincidentally” matched up. The producers are in a state of confusion.
But despite all this, Yahoo Lifestyle reveals that the people in charge of the show are on track to pull off what could be one of the happiest social experiments ever. You can. Now, as production draws to a close in Sydney and the final couple prepares for the final wow ceremony, a “record” number of pairs are still known to be together.

Photos obtained by Yahoo Lifestyle also show the remaining couples looking happier than ever, with this year’s pair even more so than last season’s match, which was accused of being “fabricated for airtime.” This suggests that it may be more authentic.
