It feels like it has been the longest year since we last tuned in to our fave guilty pleasure, MAFS!
Ahead of the hit show’s highly anticipated return, the 2020 season of hopeful brides and grooms have finally been announced.
Season 7 of Married at First Sight will premiere on the 3rd February on Channel 9.
At this stage, we don’t know who is partnered up with who, but in the meantime, let’s meet the cast of 2020.
Meet The Brides:
Natasha (26) Sydney, NSW - Financial analyst. Natasha is an outspoken and bold businesswoman who has always dated men significantly older than her, but hopes MAFS will match her with someone who sees her for the intelligent, accomplished woman she is. © Nine
Amanda (34) Melbourne, VIC - Strength Coach. Amanda has struggled to meet anyone who is prepared to fully commit to her. But despite her tough-girl exterior, she's a softie at heart. © Nine
Cathy (26) Sydney, NSW - Logistics Investigator. Trust is a huge issue for Cathy because two of her past relationships have ended with her partner cheating on her, meaning she's developed a thick skin and impenetrable walls when it comes to love. © Nine
Vanessa (31) Perth, WA - Pharmacy Manager. Having suffered from aggressive acne throughout her teens, Vanessa was badly bullied at school and still wears the scars both inside and out. Insecure with relationships, Vanessa shields herself from hurt by rejecting men before they reject her. © Nine
Aleksandra (26) Perth, WA - Real Estate Agent. In "Serbian years", Aleks says she's 100 now and ready to be left on the shelf, so it's time to take drastic measures — in an experiment that her parents completely disagree with. © Nine
Stacey (25) Adelaide, SA - Law Graduate. Stacey has two kids and a broken engagement behind her, but is unapologetic about the lofty expectations she has of any future partner. © Nine
Hayley (32) Melbourne, VIC - Finance Broker. As a recovered drug addict, Hayley has been through a tougher life than many, but it was health and fitness that pulled her out of the darkness, and she has never looked back. © Nine
Connie (27) Melbourne, VIC - Retail Assistant/Student. Connie is an aspiring marine biologist who has been single for five years, and feels incredibly awkward around the opposite sex, to the point where she is asking, "What's wrong with me?" © Nine
Poppy (38) Wollongong, NSW - Photographer. Mother of two-year-old twin boys, Poppy's ex-husband left her for another woman when the twins were just six weeks old. She's not here to find just her soulmate but a good and dependable man to be a role model to her boys. © Nine
Tash (31) Adelaide, SA - Bartender. Tash is looking for a calm and positive partner to finally settle down with. The vegan bartender and yoga teacher hopes the person waiting for her at the end of the aisle is affectionate but can also express emotions verbally, as her love language is words of affirmation. © Nine
Mishel (48) Brisbane, QLD - Teacher. Mishel has no filter and says exactly what's on her mind. A mother of two grown kids aged 18 and 20, Mishel is entering the experiment to find true love after being cheated on by most of her partners. © Nine
Meet The Grooms:
Steve (51) Melbourne, VIC - Barber Shop Owner. A survivor, Steve was diagnosed with testicular cancer eight years ago and his much younger ex-girlfriend nursed him through it. The relationship didn't last though, and now he's looking to be with a woman closer to his age. © Nine
Ivan (30) Sydney, NSW - Real Estate Agent. The Sydney real estate agent is hard-working and ambitious, with an approach that can be polarising. He has strong opinions, speaking his mind and often offending people along the way. © Nine
Chris (37) Adelaide, SA - Youth Worker. As a single dad of two young boys, a broken home and part-time fatherhood is not the life he imagined for himself or his kids. With parents who have been married for 38 years, Chris always pictured the perfect family unit for himself, and he still holds this hope. © Nine
Jonethen (27) Gold Coast, QLD - Projects Officer. Jonethen does not struggle to attract women. But thanks to the nature of his work, he finds commitment difficult and struggles to maintain any relationship beyond a few months. © Nine
Luke (39) Melbourne, VIC - Maintenance Supervisor (FIFO). As a hard-working fly in-fly out worker and the single dad of two teenaged daughters, Luke truly has his work cut out for him when it comes to finding time for dating. Luke became a dad at the age of 21 before he and his wife eventually grew apart. © Nine
Michael (28) Adelaide, SA - Company Director. Alpha-male Michael is a single dad with a toddler and a very successful business. A wisecracking joker with a great sense of humour, Michael is never one to struggle with finding a casual fling. © Nine
David (31) Melbourne, VIC - Truck Driver. David is a 31-year-old former boxer who now drives trucks for a living. Having endured a severe spinal injury resulting in surgery thanks to his boxing career, David managed to rehabilitate himself and come back to the ring, which is one of his proudest achievements. © Nine
Mikey (29) Sydney, NSW - Operations Manager. Mikey is a private school boy from Sydney's north shore. He recently stepped up to help run the family business: a nursing home that his grandfather founded. © Nine
Josh (28) Sydney, NSW - Industrial Operator/Truck Driver. Josh is the quintessential loveable Aussie tradie who, until recently, loved to be the life of the party — so much so that he too often put partying before partners. © Nine
