What’s new on Married at First Sight 2023?

According to Nine, the new season of MAFS begins with the “biggest shock ever to rock a wedding, followed by honeymoons ranging from the deeply romantic to the extra-spicy and drama-filled interstate and overseas.

“Then, in a brand-new twist to the experiment, the experts will task the couples with a never-seen-before element that thrusts them – and their relationships – into the unknown with dramatic consequences.”

Overseas trips and dramatic consequences? We cannot wait.

According to The Daily Mail, this season will include a “bombshell twist”, with couples apparently ACTIVELY encouraged to swap partners.

Only time will tell how this will play out.

MAFS premieres on Nine and 9Now on Monday, January 30 at 7:30pm.
