Here’s a fun fact about Married At First Sight: out of all the MAFS couples (not including “wife swaps” or people who got together after filming), only six remain together.
SIX. SIX couples over 11 seasons.
The total would’ve been higher but Season 10 favourites Ollie Skelton and Tahnee Cook split up in December 2023. It was a sad day for the Ollnee stans, but things have since gotten messy between the former flames.
As the famous phrase goes: it is what it is.
I also want to note that it has been widely reported that MAFS season two’s Erin Bateman and Bryce Mohr are still together, however, the last confirmation of that was in 2020, when Erin posted on Instagram about their new home together.
That was five years ago, and PEDESTRIAN.TV was not able to get confirmation from the pair after reaching out. That being said, lasting for years outside of the experiment is success in my eyes! And they could very well still be together, but they might not be too!
Also, even if we did include wife swaps, like Jessika Power and Dan Webb — who have unfortunately split — and people who got together later, like Duncan James and Evelyn Ellis and Ellie Dix and Jonathan McCullough, that total is still only eight.
I’m no statistician, but I’m starting to think that our experts – John Aiken, Mel Schilling, Alessandra Rampolla, and former experts Sabina Read and Trisha Stratford – might not have had matchmaking front of mind.
Still, I guess we can celebrate the MAFS couples who have somehow managed to survive in the real world.
Now that we have our MAFS 2024 results, let’s delve into them, shall we?
MAFS COUPLE #1: Jules Robinson and Cam Merchant, MAFS Season 6
Season six stars Jules Robinson and Cam Merchant are the poster couple for the Married At First Sight franchise. Cam proposed at the end of the 2019 season during the final vows, before they got married FOR REAL in November 2019, with the ceremony airing on A Current Affair. Their MAFS baby, little Oliver, was born a few years back.
In 2024, Jules and Cam welcomed their second son, Carter James Merchant.
“I feel a lot of people were really invested in our relationship,” Jules told Stellar in early 2020. “People still message me to this day and say we gave them hope that they will find their ‘one’. That’s so heartwarming and is why, obviously, we did our wedding on TV.”
The couple still look deeply loved up — we love to see it.
MAFS COUPLE #2: Martha Kalifatidis and Michael Brunelli, MAFS Season 6
Martha Kalifatidis and Michael Brunelli, also from season six, are happily coupled up too, having announced their engagement in 2021. They also welcomed their first child — an adorable baby boy named Lucius — in January 2023.
Martha once told Now To Love that people are drawn to their authenticity as a couple. “It’s not different from what is going on in everyone else’s apartments. We fight about the same dumb things that other couples fight about. We’re not special.”
While they did share text messages that seemed to hint at a breakup, it was quickly revealed it was just a stunt to promote their endorsement deal with telco Circles Life Australia. Then, when Martha was announced for Celebrity Apprentice and copped the scorn of trolls online, Michael jumped to her defence, calling them bullies and “the saddest, lowest form of humans in Australia”.
Sadly, during the early weeks of Martha’s pregnancy, she suffered from hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) which is basically extremely severe morning sickness.
MAFS COUPLE #3: Bryce Ruthven and Melissa Rawson, MAFS Season 8
Ah, Bryce Ruthven and Melissa Rawson. The MAFS couple that everyone loves to hate.
Well, love ’em or hate ’em, they’re still going strong, so it looks like the MAFS experiment worked there!
The pair announced they were engaged and also welcomed two twin bubbas in 2021. Melissa kept her followers up to date with her wedding prep, even posting a cheeky wedding dress try-on vid in November 2022.
The pair officially tied the knot in February 2023.
MAFS COUPLE #4: Kerry Knight and Johnny Balbuziente, MAFS Season 8
Another success story from MAFS season eight, Kerry Knight and Johnny Balbuziente are still loved-up and enjoying each other’s company, as you will have seen from their cute Insta snaps. In July 2022, the couple revealed they are engaged and they officially got married — not MAFS married, actually married married — in January 2023.
Bless!
That Christmas, in 2023, Kerry discovered she was preggers after months of trying. They announced the pregnancy on Instagram in January 2024.
“Thrilled to be adding a much wanted and already so-loved member to our family,” Kerry and Johnny wrote in a collaborated post.
“Our journey took a bit longer than we’d hoped for but not as long as others. Thinking of everyone still on their path.”
In June 2024, the happy couple announced the birth of their first child, Chloe Rossi Balbuziente.
Kerry and Johnny prove that MAFS intruders can be as successful as, if not more than, OG MAFS couples.
MAFS COUPLE #5: Tori Adams and Jack Dunkley, MAFS Season 11
This is probably the couple that most viewers didn’t expect to be a success story, but Season 11’s Tori Adams and Jack Dunkley kinda remind me of Bryce and Melissa.
Seeing as Tori could get through Jack making some controversial comments — like when he asked Jonathan McCullough to “muzzle his woman” — they can probably get through anything. Including a few dry spells.
The couple have officially moved in together, and have already started talking about getting hitched and popping out a few kids.
“I’ve told Tori that if we were to get married and have children, my time span on that would be in about two years,” Jack told 9 Entertainment.
“So maybe in a year’s time, all things going well, I’d like to think I’d have a ring on it to be honest.”
While there haven’t been angry engagement or baby news from the pair, Tori did move in with Jack, leaving her life behind in Melbourne for the sunny Gold Coast.
MAFS COUPLE #6: Jade Pywell and Ridge Barredo, MAFS Season 11
Intruder couple Jade Pywell and Ridge Barredo from Season 11 seem to be the real deal. While Jade had to get over some of Ridge’s very not-DEECE tendencies and immaturity, they seem absolutely smitten with each other.
In March, Ridge told Bronte & Lakey for Breakfast that the couple were doing well, saying he was “confident” in their relationship.
He also shared a sweet tribute to Jade on Instagram, saying: “In the experiment, I managed to meet a girl who made me fall so deeply for her and made me realise why it never worked with anyone else. She’s all I’ve ever wanted and so much more.”
Recently, Ridge pranked Jade with a cheeky proposal where he got down on one knee just to push her into the ocean. The bit received a mixed bag of reactions from fans, with some viewers dubbing the prank as “cruel” and “aggressive”.
Regardless, it’s looking quite deece for these 2024 intruders.
Who’s still together on Married At First Sight 2025?
While the season just kicked off, we only know about two couples: Carina and Paul, and Eliot and Lauren.
Carina and Paul have had a rocky start as it was revealed after their vows the Frenchman ghosted Carina eight months before they were unexpectedly matched on the show.
As for Eliot and Lauren, teasers for Tuesday night’s episode suggest the controversial groom will be yeeting out of the experiment during the honeymoon!
Despite these two hot messes, we’ve got a page on all the tea regarding which Married At First Sight 2025 couples are still together.
