If the explosive reunion was anything to go by, the upcoming season of Married At First Sight is going to be off the charts.
Now on its eighth season, the reality ratings hit has birthed some incredible love stories and even more incredible drama so we’re getting excited for another fresh batch of brides and grooms.
So when does the drama kick off? It’s time to mark your calendars because the premiere date is Monday February 22nd.
This season, MAFS’ contestants reportedly include rock musician Booka Nile, who sings and plays keyboard for metal band Make Them Suffer, AFL player Jake Edwards, Canberra’s Hit 104.7 radio host Bryce Ruthven, TV host and bikini model Georgia Fairweather, theatre actor Johnny Balbuziente and fitness influencer/ex cop Connie ‘Coco’ Stedman.
