Are MAFS’ Stella and Filip still together after Final Vows?

by Danica Baker

Stella Mickunaite joined Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2026 in the hope of finding love, and paired with Filip Gregov, that’s exactly what she found!

In their first episode, both Stella and Filip stated that they were looking for a traditional relationship, one where the man earns the money and takes on the provider role, and the woman is the mother and caregiver.

So, on that level, Stella and Filip match, but their broader values and personalities proved to be compatible, too.

Read on to find out everything you need to know about whether MAFS‘ Stella and Filip are still together in real life.

Are MAFS’ Stella and Filip still together in real life?

Yes, they are! Stella and Filip made MAFS history when they got engaged at Final Vows.

“Now standing here at the end of the experiment, I can say with absolute certainty that we’re soul mates, I can feel it in every heartbeat, in every moment, in every look I get to share with you,” Stella told Filip before he got down on one knee.

“Stella, I love you more than I ever thought possible and have never felt more certain of anything. I know what my heart wants, something just for us, something that is truly ours. Stella, will you marry me?” He said.

Stella tearfully accepted the proposal, admitting in a producer-led interview that while she knew Filip would eventually propose to her, she didn’t think it would happen at Final Vows.

Final Vows was filmed in November last year, and an insider told Chattr that Stella and Filip’s relationship is still going strong and they’re “absolutely still together”.

Insider spoils Stella and Filip Final Vows engagement

Back in February, an Insider told Chattr that Filip got down on one knee at the end of the season and proposed to his TV wife.

“Stella gets engaged at the end, at Final Vows, so they’re going to be the golden couple all season, like Rhi and Jeff from last year,” the insider told Chattr.

On top of that, a TikTok user spotted the couple out on a walk hand in hand in Sydney’s South.

“Guys, it’s Stella and her husband from MAFS, they’re still together, they’re at Cronulla, having a little walky-walk. I can’t think of his name, but slay,” they wrote, and one person responded in the comments section claiming that the couple recently had an engagement party

“They are engaged in real life now and just had their engagement party,” the user wrote.

Stella talks marriage and babies with Filip

In an interview with Chattr back in February, Stella was coy when asked whether she could see herself getting married to Filip.

“We don’t know what the future holds,” she said, adding that “getting married is a beautiful aspiration in life — to have a lifelong partner with whom you build a life together and support each other through everything.”

However, Stella did reveal that she and Filip have talked about what they think their kids would look like.

“We actually ran a ChatGPT simulation,” she told Chattr. “They would get pretty bloody good genes. Filip is tall, dark and handsome, and I’m petite, and you know, strong, little lady. So, I think the kids would have quite good genes, in that sense.”

“I was just saying I would love to have a blue-eyed baby, but I think Filip’s has dark eyes and dark eye genes are quite strong, so I don’t know if that’s gonna work in my favour.”

Married at First Sight (MAFS) 2026 Reunion airs Monday and Tuesday on Channel 9 and 9Now.

Which MAFS 2026 couples are still together after Final Vows?

by Reena Gupta

Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2026 is done and dusted, and it’s definitely been an eventful season! We’ve witnessed sparks flying, drama exploding, and relationships being pushed to the brink.

From self-proclaimed “power couple” Gia and Scott to the tragedy that was Mel and Luke, here’s your complete rundown of which of our chaotic pairings are set to go down in history as a MAFS success story, and the ones that have gone down in flames.

Gia Fleur and Scott McCristal

While Gia Fleur and Scott McCristal seemed like a solid couple, their marriage came to an end after the Grass is Greener task, where Scott saw footage of Gia aggressively flirting with her back-up match, James. After viewing the footage, Scott became upset, stating that Gia had “used” him and that he was “done.”

An insider told Chattr that after Gia and Scott broke up on MAFS, she actually moved to the Gold Coast in the hope of being with him. While the two made plans to meet up for a “sex date”, Scott apparently bailed at the last minute.

The source said that Gia was extremely mad that Scott cancelled, and things were completely over between them from then on. She moved back to Melbourne and had no further contact with Scott.

Before the season aired, one of our sources told Chattr that the couple had since split. While they reportedly made it far in the experiment, insiders claim the relationship lasted as long as it did because he allegedly strung her along to secure more airtime.

“He only talks to one person from the show now, and at the last Dinner Party, he said he was too good for everyone and that they’re beneath him,” our source spills. “He said to his wife on camera that she wasn’t his calibre,” a source said. You can find out more detail about whether Gia and Scott are still together here.

Verdict: Not together

Rachel Gilmore and Steven Danyluk

MAFS 2026 Steven and Rachel MAFS final vows

Rachel Gilmore and Steven Danyluk seemed like a promising match from day one, with the pair having a lot in common: they’re both chronically single in their mid-thirties and fed up with the superficiality of dating apps.

Rachel and Steven both committed to working on their relationship outside of MAFS Final Vows, which signified a strong start to their future.  

“It has been a slow burn, but it’s allowed something rare to grow between us — a deep, emotional connection, one I’ve never had with a man before,” Rachel said. Not to be outdone, Steven slipped in a Fearless Taylor Swift reference before telling a producer they would be pashing a lot from now on.

However, Rachel and Steven only lasted two weeks from this moment. Love is dead. “They continue their relationship on the outside for two weeks, but they break up right before Reunion,” an insider spilled to Chattr.

“They walk into the Reunion together, but they’re not in a relationship. They make a speech about it at the dinner table.”

During the final Reunion Commitment Ceremony, the experts grilled Steven and tried to get to the bottom of why he broke up with Rachel. His excuse is that long distance wasn’t working, but after the experts don’t buy it, he admitted his feelings were never strong.

Five months on from the end of the experiment, Chattr caught up with Steven, who revealed that the couple hadn’t rekindled their spark.

“Currently, me and Rachel are broken up, unfortunately, but we are good friends. We’re cordial. Everything is good. We still talk almost every day, and we’re working with each other to get through this and get to the end, and watching it back has been an experience, very emotional,” he said.

“I do have ‘what ifs’ sometimes, but no, there’s not [a chance]. Rachel did say to me on Stan [MAFS: After the Dinner Party] that it’s all over. So that ship is most likely sailed. Sucks, I had my chance, though.”

Verdict: Not together.

Alissa Fay and David Momoh

MAFS 2026 are alissa and david still together

It looks like Alissa Fay and David Momoh’s relationship is dead in the water. After viewing footage of Alissa at the Grass is Greener event, David got upset at Alissa badmouthing him and exchanging details with her backup match. David walked out of the couple’s apartment after the two exchanged barbs about the task, with Alissa emerging to throw her ring on the floor. Holy drama!

What happened between Alissa and David at MAFS Final Vows?

David and Alissa broke up during MAFS Final Vows, and it was pretty scrappy. The groom went first, telling Alissa he was finally choosing himself.

“What I’ve come to understand is that with you there was no version of me that could win,” he declared. “I’ve realised I can’t be the man who constantly fights to be heard.”

While Alissa prepared to respond with her heartfelt speech, David walked away before she could speak. Although she had also chosen to break up with him, she was left in tears at the altar.

It’s pretty clear these two are no longer together.

What else do we know about Alissa and David’s relationship?

From their wedding ceremony, it seemed like Alissa Fay and David Momoh’s relationship was off to a rocky start. Alissa refused to marry David until he got down on one knee at the altar and formally asked her to marry him. With some hesitation, David eventually did, and for a moment, it looked like they might actually make it as a couple after the experiment.

They appeared to be the “perfect power couple,” both ambitious and juggling multiple career hats. However, rumours quickly began swirling that Alissa was on MAFS for all the wrong reasons.

A source confirmed the claims to Chattr: “Everyone will understand when they watch MAFS, because it was very obvious what she was there for. She was only there for her influencing career; she wasn’t genuine.”

Since the show wrapped filming, Alissa has hard-launched her new boyfriend, Ninja Warrior star Nathan Ryles.

Verdict: Not together.

Bec Zacharia and Danny Hewitt

What happened between Bec and Danny at MAFS Final Vows?

The couple made it to Final Vows, where Bec declared she was in love with Danny, while he brutally blindsided her and dumped her at the altar.

Unsurprisingly, the Insider said Bec was heartbroken upon learning Danny’s decision. We’ve also learned that Danny has apparently been sliding into women’s DMs and has plans to launch a dildo brand after MAFS.

Bec tells Chattr she couldn’t get out of bed for six days after Danny’s actions. “He refused to speak to me,” she says. “Danny did not ring me. He did not speak to me. I ended up ringing him. He didn’t answer. I had to message him and say, Danny, I need to speak to you.”

“After Final Vows, he messaged Sammy Stanton and said, ‘Tell Bec I’ll call her in a couple of days’. He never rang. I was the one who had to reach out to him to try and get answers as to why this happened.”

Verdict: Not together.

Stella Mickunaite and Filip Gregov

What happened between Stella and Filip during Final Vows?

As all of you Chattr readers knew (we spilled the tea here back in February), Filip popped the big question during his Final Vows speech. 

“I know what my heart wants, something just for us, something that is truly ours,” he added, before getting down on one knee.

Stella, will you marry me?”

The couple will announce their engagement to the rest of the MAFS cast at the Reunion Dinner Party!

A TikTok user also recently spotted the couple out on a walk hand in hand in Sydney’s South, with someone in the comments even claiming they’d just had their engagement party.

What else do we know about Stella and Filip’s relationship?

Fiery Lithuanian princess Stella Mickunaite and Croatian YouTube prince Filip Gregov seemed like a match made in heaven. From sparks flying at the altar to Stella sharing her thoughts in a recent challenge called “Red Flag, Green Flag,” it seems Filip came out all clear, according to Stella.

The pair appear to be seeking a traditional relationship, with the man as the provider and the woman as the mother and caregiver. Their only hiccup so far came when Filip revealed in his vows that he has a YouTube channel, something that didn’t sit well with Stella’s friends. But Stella was quick to let it slide, and things have seemed full steam ahead since.

In a post Final Vows interview with Chattr, the couple dished on their wedding and which of their MAFS co-stars would make the invite list.

“Honestly, I’d invite most of the lads, and then I’ll leave the women up to Stella,” Filip said.

“Rachel, Alissa and Bec would be my three top picks to be there with me,” Stella revealed.

Verdict: Still together.

Brook Crompton and Chris Nield

MAFS 2026 Wedding Brook and Chris

In an interview with Chattr, Brook revealed she had ended a serious relationship shortly before filming, and while she gave Chris a chance, it wasn’t meant to be.

She’s now happily with a “beautiful non-fat shaming man” and has confirmed she is pregnant with her ex, Harry and happily engaged.

Chris Nield has already been labelled this year’s “biggest sceptic,” with opinions as questionable as his fatphobic comments. He was paired with Brook Crompton, who appeared to be everything he’d wished for.

But after Brook waltzed down the aisle to meet her groom, things were doomed from the start. She was open to getting to know Chris until she saw his audition tape, where his three red flags were listed as: “Fake tan, needy, and fat people.”

Despite this, the pair seemed to connect, with a hint of romantic spark. At the first commitment ceremony, Chris admitted, “Very pessimistic, but I’ve been proven wrong,” after initially saying there was a 0.000001% chance of the relationship working.

Verdict: Not together.

Mel Akbay and Luke Fourniotis

MAFS 2026 Wedding Luke and Mel.

Mel Akbay and Luke Fourniotis parted ways after both writing “Leave” at the show’s third Commitment Ceremony in early March.

Out of all the couples in the experiment, Mel Akbay and Luke Fourniotis have struggled the most, and it’s been painfully obvious. Their relationship hit a rocky start when Luke arrived late to their wedding, having forgotten the rings. He also spit out his chewing gum at the altar. Mel held a grudge, and said that there was no “spark” between them.

The tension carried through the honeymoon and the first dinner party, with awkward silences dominating even the simplest conversations. It seemed unlikely this couple could salvage their relationship.

After the first commitment ceremony, the experts did step in, urging them to grow up and hit the reset button. But even with that intervention, their relationship never recovered.

Verdict: Not together.

Rebecca Zukowski and Steve Powell

Rebecca Zukowski and Steve Powell are the oldest participants on MAFS, and on paper, they seemed like a perfect match.

But the two called it quits after Intimacy Week, with Steve appearing unenthused by Rebecca’s idea of wearing lingerie. The tension came to a head at the second Commitment Ceremony, where both participants chose to write ‘leave’, bringing their time on the show to an early end.

Before the Commitment Ceremony, Rebecca reposted a meme that described Steve as a “heartless superficial prick” on Instagram, indicating that these two are well and truly over.

From the start, sparks flew between the single parents. Rebecca is a recent empty nester, with her 19-year-old son Austin having been her main focus. Steve, a dad of four daughters, says he understands women — but only time will tell if that’s true. Rebecca swooned over her “silver fox,” while Steve was instantly drawn to her infectious laugh.

But as the episodes progressed, challenges began to test them. During the Red Flag, Green Flag challenge, Steve revealed some cracks in the relationship and listed Rebecca’s red flags — though he didn’t share them with the experts at the first commitment ceremony.

Things went sideways from there,

Verdict: Not together.

Julia Vogl and Grayson McIvor

MAFS 2026 Wedding Julia and Grayson.

While we did see sparks fly between Julia and Grayson, the two have parted ways, with Jules reading out a ‘break-up letter’ to Grayson on their one-month anniversary. In the letter, Julia stated: “that burning desire… doesn’t seem to be growing.”

The two ended up attending that week’s Dinner Party separately, but they looked to be on good terms.

In one of the most spectacular weddings in MAFS history, former AFL player Grayson McIvor met his bride-to-be on the steps of the Sydney Opera House, and it was none other than the season’s bisexual bride, Julia Vogl.

In a suspense-filled ceremony, Julia had no idea whether she’d be walking down the aisle to a man or a woman. “For me, it’s not some performative thing — I’ve genuinely fallen in love with men, and I’ve genuinely fallen in love with women,” she told the experts.

Verdict: Not together.

Stephanie Marshall and Tyson Gordon

Stephanie and Tyson MAFS

Intruders Stephanie Marshall and Tyson Gordon didn’t tarry long in the experiment. The two clashed on the couch at their final Commitment Ceremony where Stephanie said she found Tyson combative, and also condemned his homophobic comments. Tyson became fed up and stormed out of the room, after which Stephanie memorably threw her wedding room across the room.

Stephanie and Tyson were likely matched because of their mutual interest in traditional marriage and their ‘anti-woke’ stance. But the energy between them has pretty much been a flop since Day 1, with Tyson saying that Stephanie was “not what he asked for”, with a preference for a “younger” and more “submissive” match.

Tyson also expressed an aversion to Stephanie’s “masculine energy”, stating that he wanted to be the one bringing that energy to the relationship. Speaking to Chattr, Stephanie said she found Tyson’s views overly simplistic, as both men and women can embody masculine and feminine energy at different times. She added that Tyson didn’t seem to understand what the word “submissive” actually meant.

Verdict: Not together.

Juliette Fava and Joel Moses

Joel and Juliette MAFS

Juliette Fava and Joel Moses were another intruder couple that pretty much came and went. The 27-year-old bride seemed instantly turned off by her 31-year-old husband and at the couple’s first dinner party, she ridiculed him for still sleeping with a teddy bear and misquoted Joel’s words to the effect of “I’m the star!” Juliette also revealed that he was turned off by a video she saw online of Joel playing the drums with a bunch of dildos.

While things seemed to suddenly improve when the couple went on retreat, they once again went sideways at the couple’s final Commitment Ceremony where Juliette stormed out and called Joel a “dog and a pig.” If that wasn’t enough, we nabbed exclusive screenshots of Juliette saying how much she despises Joel via text message after the experiment.

Verdict: Not together.

Sam Stanton and Chris Robinson

The show’s only gay couple, Sam Stanton and Chris Robinson were the final intruders to join the 2026 season of the show, but again, their relationship didn’t take long to fizzle out.

After a Commitment Ceremony in which Chris talked about what a post-MAFS future for the couple could look like, Sam raised concerns with Chris about not being consulted about those plans. They went on to butt heads at a Dinner Party, and eventually broke up during Homestays Week.

Verdict: Not together.

Here’s what the MAFS 2026 couples decided for Final Vows

by Danica Baker

After weeks of messy fights, mixed signals and relationships hanging by a thread, it all comes down to Final Vows on Married at First Sight (MAFS). Will the remaining couples commit to a relationship with their partners outside the experiment, or will they blindside them and torch the relationship with a brutal, breakup in front of the nation?

Read on to find out what happened during MAFS 2026 Final Vows.

Which couples make it to MAFS Final Vows?

Four couples made it to MAFS Final Vows: Alissa and David, Rachel and Steven, Bec and Danny and Filip and Stella. Gia and Scott quit the experiment for good after the final Dinner Party.

When does MAFS Final Vows air?

MAFS Final Vows aired on April 7, 2026. It was filled with heartbreak and happiness.

Did any of the MAFS couples say ‘yes’ at Final Vows?

Without further ado, let’s take a look at the MAFS couples who made it to Final Vows, and which ones said yes.

David and Alissa

Alissa Fay and David Momoh were one of the strongest couples on MAFS 2026, until cracks started to show during the final few weeks of the experiment. After Alissa’s behaviour during the Grass is Greener challenge, David removed his wedding ring, and Alissa followed suit.

However, David and Alissa broke up during Final Vows. David went first with a brutal speech, leaving Alissa visibly emotional.

“What I’ve come to understand is that with you there was no version of me that could win,” he said. “If I pushed harder, I would’ve been called controlling. If I held back, I was labelled disconnected. I’ve realised I can’t be the man who constantly fights to be heard.

In a dramatic move, David walked off after he delivered his speech, and refused to listen to what Alissa had to say. 

“You’re not going to listen to my vows?” she asked. “That’s a no. Wow. I just wasted three months of my life and he won’t even listen to me.”

Instead of walking away, Alissa then read her vows out loud to an empty room. 

“David you are everything I wanted and more, you are strong, you are kind, you are compassionate, you are a leader, but standing here today, I can only be honest. I love you David, for who you are, but not for me,” she said, while starting to cry.

Verdict: They say no.

Rachel and Steven

Rachel Gilmore and Steven Danyluk went into MAFS Final Vows in a really good place. While they came across some roadblocks early in the season, they’ve been putting forward a united front since Homestays, and tackled the Grass is Greener challenge without any problems. 

Rachel used her speech to thank Steven for choosing her, and fought back tears as she poured out her heart. “It has been a slow burn, but it’s allowed something rare to grow between us — a deep, emotional connection, one I’ve never had with a man before,” she said.

“You’ve never asked me to tone it down, be less or shrink myself to fit beside you. You’ve let me, be me, completely, and that’s all I’ve ever wanted. I choose you, Steven. No hesitation. No holding back.”

Steven used his Final Vows speech to reaffirm his commitment to the bride. “I had hope, but I also found it hard to imagine anyone ever loving someone like me,” Steven admitted. “Rachel, you really changed that for me. You taught me that my heart wasn’t broken, it was just waiting for the right person to see it, and that person, is you, Rachel.

“So today, I’m standing here to tell you, that I choose you. I choose your smile, your laugh and your fire. And I promise from this day forward, to show up for you, take every risk with you, and to never stop choosing you. I am falling for you.”

Verdict: They say yes!

However, an insider told us that their relationship didn’t last long in the real world.

“Rachel and Steven both commit to each other at Final Vows, and they continue their relationship on the outside for two weeks, but they break up right before Reunion,” the insider spills. “They walk into the Reunion together, but they’re not in a relationship. They make a speech about it at the dinner table.”

The source explained that it ultimately came down to the fact that Steven’s feelings for Rachel weren’t strong enough.

“Eventually, he says, ‘No, I don’t like her enough’,” the source claims. “Rachel was crying because she was really into him and really liked him. So that was hectic.”

Danny and Bec

Bec Zacharia and Danny Hewitt ran into problems during their honeymoon, when Danny admitted there wasn’t much sexual chemistry. While you’d think a couple who stayed in the experiment for three months would have a future, it seems like Danny just stuck around for fame. 

While Bec poured her heart out during Final Vows, hoping for a real relationship with Danny outside of the experiment, it didn’t go to plan.

“Daniel, you’re my best friend, my safe space, you make me a better person and you lift me up when I’m down. You’re the kind of man everyone wants in their corner,” Bec said. “You’re loyal, funny, and endlessly giving.

“So today, standing here, I’m choosing you, and I promise to choose you every day from here on out. Because, simply put: I love you.”

While Danny gave Bec a kiss after her speech, he then blindsided her with some brutal honesty. 

“Stepping away from the experiment in the last week, I really thought about how I felt having space on my own again,” Danny said. “And as much as it breaks my heart to say this, I’ve felt a weight come off my shoulders, particularly at a time when I knew I should be missing you. 

“Honestly, from the bottom of my heart, I’m so sorry to do this to you, but I can’t be your husband anymore. I know this might be hard to hear, but I think we both deserve a happy relationship, and like, a healthy one. I’m so f**king sorry.”

Bec walked away from Danny and ended up sobbing in the middle of the forest. “I’ve been blindsided,” Bec cries. “I just didn’t think it was gonna go this way.”

Verdict: Bec says yes, Danny says no.

Stella and Filip

MAFS 2026 Filip and Stella

Stella Mickunaite and Filip Gregov’s engagement has been the worst-kept secret of MAFS 2026, and we finally got to see how it played out.

Stella declared her love to Filip first, telling him he makes her feel “bold and free”, while also inspiring her. “I can say with absolute certainty that we’re soulmates,” she said. “As we step into our next chapter, I promise to keep choosing you every day. To meet your strength with softness, your ambition with encouragement, and to keep laughing with you, learning with you, loving you in all your forms.”

Filip changed the game, telling Stella he loved her more than he thought possible. “I’ve never felt more certain about anything,” Filip said. “I know what my heart wants, something just for us, something that is truly ours,” he added, before getting down on one knee.

“Stella, will you marry me?”

The happy couple sealed the deal with a kiss and cuddle.

Verdict: They say yes!

And there you have it, MAFS Final Vows are done and dusted for another year. There’s still plenty of drama to come, however, with the MAFS Reunion Dinner Party and Reunion Commitment Ceremony right around the corner. 

MAFS 2026 airs Sunday – Tuesday on Channel 9 and 9Now.

Are MAFS’ Bec and Danny still together after Final Vows?

by Rachel Choy

Married At First Sight (MAFS) has seen Bec Zacharia and Danny Hewitt’s relationship go through plenty of struggles, but the couple have put on a united front throughout the experiment.

Coming onto the show, Bec was looking for a serious match, as she’s already broken one engagement prior to MAFS. Her groom Danny is a “reformed” player, looking for somebody to finally settle down with. A sense of humour is also important to both the bride and groom. So, on paper, they’re a good match.

Although Bec and Danny struggled to find a spark on their honeymoon, their connection grew from strength to strength through the MAFS experiment. By the tail end, Bec had told Danny she loved him, but the groom refused to say it back.

So, did Danny’s feelings end up catching up to Bec in the end, or did the couple throw in the towel and go their separate ways? Read on to find out everything we know about their relationship status.

Are MAFS’ Bec and Danny still together in real life?

Bec spilled her heart to Danny at Final Vows, but he turned around and dumped her, leaving her heartbroken. So, what happened after they both walked away from that fateful meeting?

Bec says Danny didn’t ever reach out to check in on her after Final Vows

Bec told Chattr that she was absolutely devastated after learning of Danny’s decision.

“I didn’t get out of bed for six days, she said. “The people that were there for me day in day out were Rebecca [Zukowski], Rachel [Gilmore] and Sammy [Stanton], every day, five times a day, these people were on the phone to me.”

Bec added that even though Danny saw how wrecked she was after he dumped her, he didn’t so much as shoot her a text to check up on her.

“He refused to speak to me,” she revealed. “Danny did not ring me. He did not speak to me. I ended up ringing him. He didn’t answer. I had to message him and say, Danny, I need to speak to you.”

“After Final Vows, he messaged Sammy Stanton and said, ‘Tell Bec I’ll call her in a couple of days’. He never rang. I was the one who had to reach out to him to try and get answers as to why this happened.”

Source says Bec was blindsided at Final Vows

Back in March, an insider revealed to Chattr what happens between Danny and Bec at Final Vows. The source, who’s close to the cast told us that the couple made it to the end of the experiment, but Danny blindsided Bec and dumped her.

“They make it to Final Vows, and Bec chooses to stay with Danny, but Danny doesn’t choose to stay with Bec, which kind of plays into the narrative and discourse online, which is that Danny’s actually not into her,” they said.

The source added that the audience probably won’t be surprised by the result, as Danny has made it abundantly clear that he’s not feeling Bec.

“Everyone can probably tell that’s going to happen because he’s just not into her. If someone’s into you, you know.”

Unsurprisingly, the Insider said Bec was heartbroken upon learning Danny’s decision.

“She was in a really bad place for like, three days. She wasn’t okay. It was a blindside for her, because she was like, ‘I love you’, and she was expecting him to say it back, but he didn’t. He left.”

Danny’s allegedly been chatting to female fans on his burner Instagram account

In an episode of MAFS Funny posted on March 23, host Josh Fox speculated that Danny has been more focused on getting Instagram followers like his stripper friend, Will Parfitt, reporting that Danny’s using his burner account to DM female fans.

Apparently, Danny messaged one woman, stating, “We can hang out at my hotel, though I know that sounds sleazy as f**k,” “If it’s dark, we can go somewhere very quiet, but I’ve got to be careful,” and “I can wear a hat”.

He’s also reportedly been spotted on double dates with Filip and Stella, accompanied by a woman tradie.

Bec told fans that she and Danny are still together on IG live

Bec also went rogue on Wednesday, March 11 and popped on an Instagram Live with former MAFS bride Awhina Rutene, where she spilled a bucketload of tea.

During the Q&A session, a fan asked Bec if she and Danny “aren’t together”, and the MAFS bride confirmed they are, revealing they attended the filming of MAFS: After the Dinner Party together just days before it aired on March 11.

“We are definitely together, you’ll see us, we flew to Sydney for the Stan show, but we both live in different states at this point in time,” she replied.

On top of that, Bec is currently following Danny, and he follows her back. This could either mean the two are still very much in love, or perhaps they’re just keeping up appearances while the show is on.

To throw another spanner in the works, Stranded on Honeymoon Island star Georgia Moore shared an interesting TikTok in February showing a man who appears to look like Danny out with another woman.

“It’s Danny? The guy who has married Bec, in the current season of MAFS. It kind of looks like him,” she said. “Hold on, that’s not his wife, Bec. Who’s that? And she’s a hot brunette. Look at those abs.”

Bec teases Valentine’s Day plans

Bec also told Chattr in an interview at the beginning of the season, she has plans to celebrate her birthday and Valentine’s Day with a few people, and said it will be “full of love”. Could this be a hint that it includes Danny?

She also said there’s a chance that she could fall in love with Danny, which sounds hopeful. “There’s always a chance for love. You know, I can speak for myself and myself only, but I know that I came onto Married At First Sight for love as a big believe in the experiment,” Bec said.

Married at First Sight (MAFS) 2026 airs Monday – Thursday at 7:30pm this week on Channel 9 and 9Now.

MAFS’ Bec said Danny completely cut her off after Final Vows: ‘I didn’t get out of bed for six days’

by Danica Baker

Married at First Sight (MAFS) 2026’s Bec Zacharia was left heartbroken at Final Vows after professing her love to Danny Hewitt, only for him to turn around and break up with her. And in an interview with Chattr, the MAFS bride has opened up about how heartbroken she was and whether Danny reached out to her afterwards.

On TV, it may be obvious to viewers that Bec’s strong feelings for Danny arent reciprocted. However, Bec explained that she was so blindsided by his decision to walk away because she had made it clear to him that she wouldn’t go to Final Vows unless he said yes.

“I took him out for his birthday [a few days before Final Vows], and we had a great time, and he said to me, ‘We’re 100% leaving together. I’m falling in love with you’.

“‘I’m saving those three words to say to you at Final Vows’, was his exact words of what he said to me, and when we were apart, doing our deliberations for those four days, he was sending me love songs, so I truly believed that we were leaving together.

“It absolutely broke my heart. It shocked me, but it also made me realise that he had kept me in the experiment for three and a half months because he didn’t want to be with me. He wanted fame.”

Bec said that she was an emotional wreck after Final Vows, and “didn’t get out of bed for six days” because she was so heartbroken.

“The people that were there for me day in day out were Rebecca [Zukowski], Rachel [Gilmore] and Sammy [Stanton[, every day, five times a day, these people were on the phone to me.”

She added that after she walked off from the Final Vows ceremony in tears, Danny never even bothered to check in on her in the days that followed.

“He refused to speak to me,” she revealed. “Danny did not ring me. He did not speak to me. I ended up ringing him. He didn’t answer. I had to message him and say, Danny, I need to speak to you.”

“After Final Vows, he messaged Sammy Stanton and said, ‘Tell Bec I’ll call her in a couple of days’. He never rang. I was the one who had to reach out to him to try and get answers as to why this happened.”

MAFS’ Bec believes Danny used her for screentime

Bec was wrapped up in a lot of this season’s drama, which subsequently earned her plenty of airtime. And, the MAFS bride told Chattr that she believes Danny clocked the fact that he could boost his social media following by being with her, and riding out the experiment by her side.

Bec said that Danny ramped up his affection towards her right at the end of the experiment — especially off camera — and she believes it was because he wanted her to stay until Final Vows.

“100%, it was strategic for him to tell me that he was falling in love with me off camera, that we were leaving together, that we were the strongest couple. He would say that to me every single day,” she dished.

“It was strategic, because he’s telling me what I want to hear to keep me sweet, but then behind my back, he’s telling the camera something completely different.”

Bec said that Danny’s Final Vows decision made her question his feelings for her throughout the entire experiment, adding that she picked up on his game plan while watching the show back.

“I question his intentions over the whole time. I think you can see on his face that he’s not interested in me, but when the cameras were down, he was very much telling me exactly what I wanted to hear. ‘We’re the strongest couple. I can’t wait to move to Adelaide. You’re everything I want’. You know, sending me love songs every day.

“But then I’m watching it back, and I’m going, well, hang on a second, you’re purposely saying things that you know are going to rile me up, because then that gives you an excuse to say our fight styles don’t match. But why did you tell me you were falling in love with me five days before Final Vows, only to dump me five days later?”

Married at First Sight (MAFS) 2026 Reunion airs Sunday and Monday on Channel 9 and 9Now.

Are MAFS’ Alissa and David still together after Final Vows?

by Danica Baker

On paper, there was a lot about David Momoh and Alissa Fay from Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2026 that made sense. Alissa has said she’s looking for a partner who is “talk, dark and handsome” and David is a fan of “blonde, feminine women”.

The pair also both seem ambitious, with Alissa’s decade-long nursing career inducing the kind of burnout that inspired her to branch out into becoming an influencer. David is also a self-described hustler, working full-time as an e-commerce product manager while grinding away on a bunch of side hustles.

Of course, filming for the season has already wrapped — meaning Alissa and David’s on-screen relationship has fully played out, even though viewers haven’t seen it yet. So, are the pair actually together in real life? Read on to find out everything we know so far.

Are David and Alissa still together?

David and Alissa were one of the strongest couples on MAFS 2026. However, as the season has progressed, their relationship has begun to show cracks, with Alissa teasing in an interview with Chattr that “cracks are starting to show”.

So, did their relationship go the distance or fall apart once the cameras stopped rolling? Here’s everything we know so far.

David and Alissa break up at Final Vows

David and Alissa’s relationship spiralled in the final weeks of the experiment, erupting into a massive fight after he accused her of flirting during the Grass Is Greener challenge. Both declared they were done in the heat of the moment, but David later tried to salvage things at the final Dinner Party. His attempts weren’t well-received by Alissa, who exclaimed that it was too late.

Going into Final Vows, it looked as though Alissa was set to dump David after she told a producer she was “heartbroken” to break his heart. However, David beat her to the punch, telling her that he was walking away because loving her “shouldn’t mean losing myself.”

David bailed out of Final Vows before Alissa even had a chance to read her own vows — in which she’d also decided to dump David — so she ended up reading them out loud… to herself.

Insider claimed viewers would see a wild twist play out at Final Vows

Ahead of Final Vows, we had an inkling that David and Alissa were going to split in a dramatic fashion.

While two sources offer conflicting accounts of what really goes down at Final Vows — with one claiming Alissa brutally dumps David, and another insisting David ends things first before storming off and refusing to hear her vows — they both agreed on one thing: the couple break up at the last hurdle.

A source told Chattr that David and Alissa both went into Final Vows intending to cut the cord on their relationship.

“Basically, they both write that they don’t want to be with each other at Final Vows. But David says his piece first, and then he just walks off, and Alissa doesn’t say anything, because he doesn’t give her a chance to speak, because he just walks away,” the insider said.

Meanwhile, a source told MAFS Funny that Alissa bailed on the experiment right before Final Vows.

“Alissa basically just upped and left, packed her bags, flew back to Adelaide and said, Nah, I’m done. I’m not coming back for the Final Vows ceremony. But of course, she did after the producers begged her, and back to Sydney, she went,” host Josh Fox said.

“And then during their Final Vows ceremony, Alissa went first. She read out her vows, which were apparently quite brutal, and in them she said, how her and David, they have no future outside of the experiment, and this apparently left David so furious and kind of blindsided that he just threw his vows down on the ground, refused to read them and stormed off set, and that was it, done, the end,” he claimed.

Josh went on to claim that Alissa allegedly has a new boyfriend, named Nathan Ryles, who competed on Ninja Warrior a few years ago.

Insider claims Alissa was on the show for clout

A source told Chattr at the beginning of the season that Alissa was on the show for the wrong reasons — and that she didn’t come looking for love.

“Everyone will understand when they watch MAFS, because it was very obvious what she was there for,” they said. “She was only there for her influential career; she wasn’t genuine.”

“Alissa’s groom was gutted, because he was there for the right reasons,” the source continued, with David having said that he’s a genuine person who was looking for the right woman to settle down with.

Prior to MAFS airing, Alissa had over 268,000 followers on TikTok, and was an ambassador for an SA-based car company called Southern Chery. Her accounts show her spruiking a bunch of products and services including underwear, laser eye surgery and of course, cars.

Married at First Sight (MAFS) 2026 Reunion airs on Monday and Tuesday on Channel 9 and 9Now.

MAFS 2026 Reunion spoiler: Cast spill on cheating scandal & ‘psychotic’ screaming matches

by Danica Baker

With a season already packed to the brim with explosive fights, shock walkouts and a nasty text scandal, it’s no surprise that the Married at First Sight (MAFS) 2026 Reunion is set to be absolute chaos. And according to the cast themselves, the drama is only just getting started.

As the season is winding down and coming to the pointy end, we’ve asked the MAFS brides and grooms what viewers can expect at the Reunion, and it’s safe to say it sounds like it’s going to be wild.

Read on to find out everything you need to know about the MAFS 2026 Reunion.

Cheating scandal between Danny and Stephanie exposed

Viewers can expect a cheating scandal at the Reunion involving Danny Hewitt and intruder Stephanie Marshall.

A source tells us that Stephanie sent Danny an “exuberant” amount of text messages after she found out that he dumped Bec at Final Vows, adding that Stephanie was also consoling Bec about Danny at the same time.

A source tells us that Stephanie sent Danny an “exuberant” amount of text messages after she found out that he dumped Bec at Final Vows, adding that Stephanie was also consoling Bec about Danny at the same time.

“It all went down immediately after Final Vows, and Stephanie was supporting Bec, saying he’s a loser, you don’t need him, you deserve better, all while talking to him constantly. There was an exuberant amount of text messages. She’s ringing him. She’s sending him selfies of herself. It wasn’t right,” the source claimed.

“Stephanie hadn’t had much to do with Danny before; she literally had one conversation with him at a Dinner Party, so it didn’t make sense that all of a sudden they were in constant contact, if there was no ulterior motive.”

The source added that they believed the enthusiasm came from Stephanie’s end, and that Danny wasn’t interested in relationship with her.

However, an insider has told Chattr that the storyline was exaggerated and there will be “no new couples at the Reunion.”

“Danny just sent Stephanie a couple of friendly texts after Final Vows. I would not call it flirty by any means. It’s been completely blown out of proportion for the sake of making drama for the show.”

The source added that the news of Danny and Stephanie’s texts started circulating when “two women from the cast used it as a chance to create a huge s**t storm.”

When we asked Danny what to expect from the Reunion in a previous interview, he seemed to touch on the cheating scandal and echoed the source’s sentiment that things were blown out of proportion for drama.

“I think you’ll see a lot of fluffed-up drama. To be honest, you might see me in the heat of it. It’s just fluffed up bulls**t drama. That’s all it is. What’s done in the dark will always come to light.”

Producers had to intervene during a Reunion Dinner Party meltdown

Joel teased that to Chattr in an interview that the MAFS Reunion is “probably the most psychotic and deranged dinner party of all.”

The groom, who exited the experiment during the episode that aired on March 15, will be returning for the dramatic Reunion and revealed that the drama got so intense that the producers had to step in at one point.

“The producers stormed on set and shouted at us, ‘Stop screaming over each other’. Like, everyone was just screaming at each other. It was just a non-stop screaming match. But it’s not really good for TV when you can’t hear people speak.”

The filming of the Reunion Commitment Ceremony lasted until sunrise

The MAFS Reunion is filmed in two parts: the Dinner Party and the Commitment Ceremony, and Alissa said that the latter was the longest filming session they had all season. She said that it took about “16 hours” to film from start to finish, adding that the sun was coming up when they wrapped.

“We had a couple of breaks here and there, like water and toilet breaks and whatnot. But, it was exhausting, because obviously they do all your highlights, your low lights, and everybody gets a spot on the couch. That was definitely the longest [session we filmed],” she explained.

Alissa added that the longest filming session of the regular Commitment Ceremonies finished at “four o’clock in the morning”, noting that it wasn’t “as long as a reunion”.

MAFS’ Bec reveals truth behind Gia bathroom plan: ‘Producers came to get me’

by Reena Gupta

Gia Fleur made a last-minute appearance at last night’s Married At First Sight (MAFS) Dinner Party, but not without some coaxing from Bec Zacharia, who has given us the scoop on what went down behind the scenes.

As we saw, the two had a bathroom exchange where Bec encouraged Gia to attend the Dinner Party and “out-victim” Scott, who currently has the audience on his side after his response to the Grass is Greener task.

“So basically, In between the Cocktail Party and the Dinner Party we are all separated into tents,” Bec reveals. “I’m with my husband, Danny, in a tent, and Gia was separate from me. She refused to go to the Dinner Party.”

“She locked herself in the bathroom, even though she had her own tent, and the producers came to get me and said she’s not coming. She’ll only go into the Dinner Party if you come to speak to her.”

“I was like, OK, I’ll go in and speak to her. She was saying to me, ‘no, no, no, I’m not going. I’m not going.’ And I sat there and said to her, ‘Babe, pretty much A: So she could get her a into the Dinner Party, because I knew everyone had left, and B: To get her in there and cry a little bit.”

Bec explains why she encouraged Gia to ‘out-victim’ Scott

After telling Gia it would be “great” if she could cry, Bec raised a few eyebrows from viewers, who wondered why she was playing producer.

To that, Bec says: “Gia’s been so hard. She’s never cried on camera. She seems like such a hard c**t. And like in the days leading up to this, she was, like, on the phone with Danny and I crying her eyes out, being like, ‘I love him. I love him.'”

“But then, like when she walked into that cocktail party, she was so hard, and then she refused to go. I knew that she’d written this like letter, which was quite vulnerable, and so I said to her, come out there… if it’s not about Scott, let’s make it about Australia, and at least show a bit of your emotion.”

Bec says that while she may have sounded like a “f**king asshole”, at the end of the day, she “just wanted to get back into the Dinner Party”, especially since it was the last one.

Gia says producers wanted her at the final Dinner Party

In last night’s episode of MAFS: After The Dinner Party, Gia also confirmed that MAFS producers wanted her to return to the Dinner Party to “confront Scott”.

“I either wanted closure or another chance,” she said on the show. I didn’t know how it was going to pan out.” Responding to the question of whether her wish was to get back with Scott, Gia responded, “Yep, 100 percent. At the time.”

She says Bec had been supporting her wanting to get back with Scott. “I had Bec telling me he’s at the gym with Danny and there’s probably a shot there.”

MAFS Reunion spoiler: Inside *that* cheating scandal between Danny and Stephanie

by Danica Baker

A cheating scandal has been teased for the Married at First Sight (MAFS) 2026 Reunion, with an insider telling Chattr that it involves Danny Hewitt and intruder bride Stephanie Marshall.

Spoiler warning: There’s MAFS spoilers galore below, so stop reading now if you don’t want to know what happens at Final Vows and the Reunion.

A source tells us that Stephanie sent Danny an “exuberant” amount of text messages after she found out that he dumped Bec at Final Vows, adding that Stephanie was also consoling Bec about Danny at the same time.

“It all went down immediately after Final Vows, and Stephanie was supporting Bec, saying he’s a loser, you don’t need him, you deserve better, all while talking to him constantly. There was an exuberant amount of text messages. She’s ringing him. She’s sending him selfies of herself. It wasn’t right,” the source claimed.

“Stephanie hadn’t had much to do with Danny before; she literally had one conversation with him at a Dinner Party, so it didn’t make sense that all of a sudden they were in constant contact, if there was no ulterior motive.”

The source added that they believed the romantic intent came from Stephanie’s end, and that Danny wasn’t interested in pursuing a relationship with her.

“It really seemed like Stephanie wanted Danny, she was the one pushing it. If Danny had shown any interest at all, they likely would’ve taken it further.”

However, another source has downplayed Danny and Stephanie’s DMs, saying that they were just friendly chit-chat.

“There was nothing to it really; Danny just sent Stephanie a couple of friendly texts after Final Vows. I would not call it flirty by any means. It’s been completely blown out of proportion for the sake of making drama for the show,” they said.

The source added that the news of Danny and Stephanie’s texts started circulating when “two women from the cast used it as a chance to create a huge s**t storm.”

The insider stressed that there will be “no new couples at the Reunion.”

Danny skipped the Commitment Ceremony because of the cheating scandal

After getting absolutely grilled at the Dinner Party over his DMs to Steph, Danny decided to skip out of the Commitment Ceremony, which meant Bec had to have her couch session with the experts solo.

“Bec was devastated by his choice not to attend the Commitment Ceremony; it was a huge slap in the face to her,” the insider dished.

“Again, instead of being there for her, he shied away and walked away from his responsibilities, and she was left to pick up the pieces alone. It felt like he didn’t take any of the relationship seriously.”

The source added that they believed Danny was scared of what the experts would say to him.

“He knew that the experts were going to grill him and he didn’t want to face that.”

Stephanie denies that she was interested in Danny

After the news of Stephanie and Danny’s DM situation leaked, she went on Ella Ding’s podcast and denied that she was interested in Danny romantically.

“We had a voice message, and he asked me how Hamilton Island was, and so, you know, had a bit of a back and forth conversation,” Stephanie explained.

“There was no intention, not attracted to the guy, and if, and you would see that if they had shown our rating challenge… And then he hated on me, because he was like, you’ve done this for extra airtime.”

Married at First Sight (MAFS) 2026 airs Sunday – Wednesday this week on Channel 9 and 9Now.

A full timeline of what went down between Gia and Scott after MAFS

by Danica Baker

At the beginning of the season, Gia Fleur and Scott McCristal were going from strength to strength in the Married At First Sight (MAFS) experiment, quickly becoming one of the show’s strongest couples.

They’re both confident people who are looking for a partner who can keep up with their fast-paced lives, so, on paper, they’re a perfect match.

However, they’ve been wrapped up in a lot of the drama, and their relationship soured towards the end of the show, before Gia stormed out of the experiment and Scott decided to stay. But, did they actually stay together after the show?

Because MAFS 2026 was filmed back in July, Gia and Scott already know the answer to this question. However, for all your spoiler lovers out there, we’ve put together everything we know about whether Gia and Scott are still together in real life.

Are Scott and Gia still together IRL?

Scott and Gia aren’t meant to share their relationship status until after the Reunion, to avoid spoiling things for viewers. However, Gia has done a terrible job of that, and dropped spoiler after spoiler that she and Scott aren’t together.

Read on to find out all the clues the couple have revealed so far.

Source claims Gia moved to the Gold Coast in the hope of being with Scott

An insider has told Chattr that after Gia and Scott broke up on MAFS, she actually moved to the Gold Coast in the hope of being with him.

“She completely uprooted her and her daughter’s lives, and they moved to the Gold Coast not long after filming wrapped, even though he didn’t want her,” the insider claimed. “She moved into an apartment of her own. He didn’t even know that she was there, even though her intention was to win him back.”

“After a while, Scott agreed to meet up with her, and they ended up catching up over coffee together. While they were there Gia was like, ‘Let’s have sex. I miss you.’ And Scott agreed. So they organised this little sex date and made a time for it and everything, but then fifteen minutes before she was meant to go to his house, he cancelled on her,” they added.

The source said that Gia was extremely mad that Scott cancelled, and things were completely over between them from then on.

“She moved back to Melbourne not too long after, and she and Scott stopped talking. They were done, done after that.”

“Gia was certain that Scott would leave the experiment with her when she asked him, right before Final Vows. When he didn’t and they broke up she’d realised her plan hadn’t worked out, so she had to go grovelling after him.”

Insider reveals when and why Scott and Gia leave MAFS

An Insider has revealed that Scott and Gia had a huge fight and quit the experiment right before the end.

“Gia and Scott, don’t make it to Final Vows,” an insider told us. “They quit after the Grass is Greener challenge (which airs on Monday, March 30).”

The source added that, while the task played a role in the couple’s breakup, their foundation was already fractured.

“They had some turmoil over her flirting during the Grass is Greener challenge, and that played into it why they left. But, there were so many other factors that contributed,” they explained.

“It wasn’t just the flirting, it was also the excess photos [of his ex] on his phone. It’s like, because Gia kept leaving and being like, ‘Come with me, Scott’. But he didn’t want to leave. He wanted to stay in the experiment. They were already in a rocky place, but the Grass is Greener challenge was the catalyst.”

Scott confirms that he and Gia are over

As if Gia’s spoilers all season long weren’t enough to make it clear that the couple are completely done, Scott revealed their relationship status in a rogue interview.

“I won’t talk to her ever again,” he told Daily Mail Australia. “Never. I’ve never made contact with that woman again, and I never will.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Scott claimed that he and Gia had savage fights when the cameras weren’t rolling.

“You can only imagine what happens off camera,” he told the publication.

“She just comes at me, throws me under the bus, calls me fake, belittles me, calls me names,” Scott added. “It was every night. No matter what I said or did, I was in trouble.”

Gia says Scott ‘ghosted’ her after filming wrapped

An explosive selfie video shared by Instagram account MAFS Gossip shows Gia calling Scott out for word choice errors while doing a radio interview, as well as for mentioning how her daughter is doing. In the clip, Gia claimed that Scott never cared about her daughter when they split up after filming, adding that he ghosted her.

“So how about we do radio interviews about that and getting education back on track, then worrying about what the f**k my daughter’s doing? Because let me tell you, she’s so good, she’s great, and you never cared when we broke up. You never cared at all. You literally ghosted me after the show because there was no more cameras. So why don’t you shut up?” She said.

Gia also claimed that she has been banned from doing publicity interviews for Channel 9, and explained that she didn’t attend the filming of Stan’s After The Dinner Party because she was in hospital. She went on to confirm that she’s in love with her new boyfriend, Alan.

” I actually am in love and in the best relationship I’ve ever been in my life. It’s not a fleeing, it’s not just a whatever. It’s like the best relationship I’ve ever been in my life.”

Gia appears to hard-launch new relationship with former reality star

On March 7, Woman’s Day shared photos of Gia getting cosy with former Love Triangle Season 2 star Alan Wallace, which were reportedly taken last month. In the pics, Gia can be seen with her leg in Alan’s lap and her hand wrapped tightly around his neck.

Sources told the publication that Gia and Alan had been dating exclusively since last year, after she was introduced to Alan through a mutual friend. The source added that they met with Gia was still filming, but said her relationship with Scott was “dead and buried” by that point.

Insider claims Scott was sending flirting messages with his ex while on MAFS

Things took a sharp turn for Scott and Gia’s relationship after she discovered old photos of his ex on his phone and threatened to quit the experiment altogether.

While Scott insisted in a producer-led interview that nothing romantic was going on with his ex, an insider has since claimed otherwise.

“He had like 20 to 30 photos of her naked or in lingerie, and him in the photos with lingerie looking like OnlyFans content together, and despite Gia giving him a chance to delete them, he refused to,” they claimed.

“The photos were very provocative and explicit. They weren’t just normal photos on a holiday or something. It was really raunchy photos,” they added.

The source went on to allege that Scott was in touch with her ex while filming MASF.

“Gia discovered that Scott was sending flirty texts to his ex around the same time, and the messages dated all the way back to their honeymoon, where he was telling her about the wedding, which really upset Gia,” the insider claimed.

After accusations that messy, it’s safe to say their happily ever after might already be off the table.

Gia still has her matching tattoo with Scott

Scott and Gia got matching tattoos in a recent episode, and in an interview with Chattr, she revealed that she was still wearing the tattoo proudly and hadn’t had it lasered off.

“I do still have my tattoo,” she said, suggesting that the couple may still be together IRL.

Gia says she and Scott aren’t a good match

Gia didn’t sound too fond of Scott during an early-season interview with Chattr, telling us that she doesn’t think they’re a good match.

“I don’t think I’ve really got exactly what I asked for, if I’m being honest. I asked for someone who’s like a tradie who drinks beer. I said, I don’t care if he’s ugly, has a gut and is bald, because I want someone I care more about their insides and how they look,” she explained.

“I don’t want a dumb, hot guy. This is what I asked for, I said, I want someone that compliments me, makes me feel safe and reassured and has his shit together. And also, like a manly, alpha sort of man that will protect me.”

“I mean, at the wedding I poured a wine, and he was like, I don’t drink. And I was like, oh, okay, that’s interesting. And then he’s got a lot with his 4am and his 70 supplements a day, he’s very regimented. And I’m not really like that. I’ll have a burger any day. I’m not that healthy. I just like to enjoy my life. So there were a couple of things that I was like, Oh, I’ll see how that works.”

A source told Chattr Gia and Scott broke up at the end of the experiment

A source told Chattr that the couple made it far in the experiment, but only because he apparently strung her along so he could get more airtime.

“He only talks to one person from the show now, and at the last Dinner Party, he said he was too good for everyone and that they’re beneath him,” our source spills. “He said to his wife on camera that she wasn’t his calibre.”

The insider added that Scott’s went on MAFS to help his business career with a new venture he’s planning on launching soon. However, despite Scott’s apparent less-than-genuine intentions, the source said that he’ll receive a good edit because he’s a “producer puppet”.

“He does a lot wrong, but he gets away with everything and gets a great edit,” the insider alleges. “He was a production kiss ass, buying them coffee and doing so much. He was going above and beyond, and they’ve really taken to him and Luke Fourniotis.”

While Gia and Scott may not get their happily ever after, it sounds like their storyline will deliver plenty of jaw-dropping drama, and honestly, we’ll be glued to the TV.

Body language expert reveals Scott’s reaction to MAFS’ iPad task was ‘exaggerated’ for the camera

by Reena Gupta

For many fans, Scott McCristal‘s tearful reaction to the iPad task on Tuesday’s episode of Married At First Sight (MAFS) was hard to watch.

The iPad revealed footage of his MAFS wife, Gia Fleur getting flirted with pretty brazenly by her back-up match, James, and flirting pretty aggressively back — even to the point where she said she’d be done with Scott in a week.

“She’s a complete manipulator, hypocrite, everything, like she just f**ked me over,” Scott said after watching the video. “I paid for everything in this experiment. I would tell her every day how beautiful she is,” he added. “I’m f**king torn apart. I just got f**ked. I just got f**ked for three months.”

But Combined Communication Specialist and Body Language Expert Scott Taylor studied Scott’s nonverbal behaviour, and thinks that Scott hammed up his reaction for the cameras.

“There was some genuine elements to Scott’s sadness,” the pro said on Instagram. “He got some activation of some of the emotionally-driven muscles, but it was exaggerated for the camera. It wasn’t to the extent you saw.”

The expert added that as Scott was watching the video, his nonverbal behaviour didn’t indicate surprise, as that usually involves “micro expressions” like the eyes and mouth opening up. “There was no element of the surprise part,” he revealed.

“So that means he’d either watched it prior to that, or he’d been told about some of the things [that were in the video], from a behaviour point of view.”

Expert reveals when “true sadness” starts to leak out

However, the expert says that as Scott started describing what he saw in the video to producers, some genuine sadness was present. “He started with anger, which is, we got the glabella muscle activate there, and some chin jut.”

“But then you saw true sadness leak out… when he was speaking about prior relationships,” he explained. “There wasn’t true sadness before that.”

The moment he’s referring to happens towards the end of the episode, where Scott does genuinely look like he’s breaking down. “This happens with everyone. They just use me,” an emotional Scott says.

“They use me… and the more money I make the more used I get because I give so much to them… I just give people so much,” the MAFS groom said, before adding, “I’m never going to let this happen again.”

MAFS insider claims Gia moved to the Gold Coast for Scott: ‘Even though he didn’t want her’

by CHATTR Team

Gia Fleur and Scott McCristal‘s relationship may have come to a dramatic end on Married at First Sight (MAFS), but — like many toxic relationships — it apparently carried on after filming wrapped on the show. An insider close to production told Chattr that Gia packed up her things and moved to the Gold Coast with her daughter so that she could be with Scott.

“She completely uprooted her and her daughter’s lives, and they moved to the Gold Coast not long after filming wrapped, even though he didn’t want her,” the insider dished. “She moved into an apartment of her own. He didn’t even know that she was there, even though her intention was to win him back.”

The insider explained that Gia eventually told Scott she was living in the same city after she’d settled in and convinced him to meet up with her.

“After a while, Scott agreed to meet up with her, and they ended up catching up over coffee together. While they were there Gia was like, ‘Let’s have sex. I miss you.’ And Scott agreed. So they organised this little sex date and made a time for it and everything, but then fifteen minutes before she was meant to go to his house, he cancelled on her,” the source claimed.

They went on to say that Gia was furious about Scott calling it off and said that their relationship was completely done.

“She moved back to Melbourne not too long after, and she and Scott stopped talking. They were done, done after that.”

“Gia was certain that Scott would leave the experiment with her when she asked him, right before Final Vows. When he didn’t and they broke up she’d realised her plan hadn’t worked out, so she had to go grovelling after him.”

Is Gia returning for the final MAFS Dinner Party?

Yes, both Gia and Scott will be back for the final Dinner Party, and it looks as though they’ll be bringing the drama!

A promo clip released by Nine shows Gia screaming across the dinner table, saying that the other participants “don’t know everything”, with an upset Scott responding, saying, “I know more than you think”, before exclaiming that he was done (again).

However, viewers shouldn’t expect Gia and Scott to kiss and make up, as our source has assured us that the couple don’t make Final Vows.

But their drama clearly doesn’t end there. Gia and Scott are both set to return for the Reunion, and something tells us they won’t be going out quietly.

Home and Away star Alea O’Shea opens up on brain cancer battle

by Sakara Bell

Aussie actress and former Home & Away star Alea O’Shea, has undergone surgery during the fight of her life against brain cancer, after she thought it was just a pinched nerve.

Late last year, in November, Alea announced that she was diagnosed with brain cancer in a video posted to her social media, saying: “This is a video I thought I would never have to make, but I have been recently diagnosed with brain cancer.”

Alea, who is a former Home & Away star, played Darcy Callahan between 2011 and 2017, revealed that she first started to notice symptoms a few weeks before the announcement of her diagnosis and makes it clear that she chose to be as open and honest as she can be. “As I want to live my life as normally as possible while I’m fighting this,” she said.

“About six weeks ago, I noticed that my smile was a little uneven, and it felt harder to talk, like getting my words out. I had a few migraines, but nothing scary,” she said. “Then, whilst recently in LA, I lost feeling in two of my fingers, which then crept into my wrist and then my toe.”

Alea thought that she just had a pinched nerve and went to visit her physiotherapist, whom she could not “be more grateful for.” “He immediately realised it was beyond his scope and sent me to get a brain scan,” she said. “And that’s how we found it.”

Alea went on to say that if there’s one thing viewers can take away from this video, it’s to advocate for yourself: “When something feels off, even slightly, pay attention to it and find the right professionals who will take it seriously.”

A GoFundMe page has been set up for Alea to ease the pressure on  finances

After much persuasion, Alea finally gave her friends permission to set up a GoFundMe page to help ease the financial pressure of medical treatments and expenses.

“Over the past months, Alea has been bravely facing brain cancer and the many treatments that come with it,” her friend and organiser Lauren Newton shared on the page. “Last week, she underwent another surgery as part of her ongoing fight. While her courage has never wavered, the journey has been incredibly challenging for both Alea and her family.”

“Like many families navigating serious illness, they have discovered that a number of essential cancer treatments, therapy and procedures are not covered by private health insurance, creating a significant and ongoing financial burden. Despite this, her family have continued to focus all their energy on supporting Alea and helping her access the care she needs.”

The fundraiser hopes to raise $90,000 and has already reached $86,109 from 639 donations in just 5 days.

Alea doesn’t let her diagnosis stop her from creating magic

Alea’s friend Lauren revealed that, even while facing her own battle, Alea has remained committed to raising awareness and supporting other women going through the fight of their lives.

In the midst of her diagnosis, and after beginning to lose hair on the left side of her head, Alea created “Because I Ceare,” — an initiative aimed at raising awareness and funds to provide high-quality wigs to women across Australia facing cancer.

“Her generosity and selflessness in the midst of such a difficult time have touched and inspired so many of us.”

MAFS’ Danny apparently has plans to start a dildo brand off the back of his reality TV fame

by Danica Baker

With Married At First Sight (MAFS) nearing its end, participants are already eyeing life after the show — and whether their newfound fame can spark a new career. Danny Hewitt, however, is apparently taking things in a very different direction from past participants, with plans to launch his own line of sex toys.

A source told Chattr that Danny’s leaning into comments Bec Zacharia made during the season about him having a big appendage and wants to capitalise on them.

“Danny is working on launching a line of dildos after the show. To start with, he’s going to clone his cock into a sexy toy, so it will be pretty much an exact replica of what he’s got going on downstairs,” they said.

MAFS fans will remember that Danny’s best man was Channing Tatum look-alike Will Parfitt, who boasts over three million Instagram followers and tours around Australia as a stripper with Magic Mike. Our source said Danny’s used that connection to pull some strings in his favour.

“He’s going on tour with Magic Mike Australia, it’s in the works at the moment, and he’s hoping it will kick off once the show wraps, because he has plans to promote his dildo line along the way.”

Insider claims Danny wanted to stay until Final Vows so he could get exposure for his future dildo brand

It’s no secret that Gia Fleur and Bec’s feud has been one of the main storylines this season, and Danny has ultimately received a lot of airtime as a result of being Bec’s partner.

An insider told us that Danny quickly clocked that he’d gain a large profile from being a dominant character and did everything he could to stay in the experiment.

“Danny knew that there would be a lot of eyes on him for being a part of a lot of this season’s drama, so as the season went on, he knew it would be best for him to stay until the very end to maximise his exposure and make his social media platforms as big as possible,” they explained.

“He was deadset of staying until Final Vows, but his plan started to unravel when Bec tried to break up with him shortly before. So, he told her everything she needed to hear so she’d stay until Final Vows, and he’d be able to get the clout he needed to make his dildo line successful.”

MAFS insider reveals how Danny convinced Bec to stay for Final Vows

by Rachel Choy

Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2026 bride Bec Zacharia has been devoted to husband Danny Hewitt throughout the entire experiment, but she’s started to cotton on to the fact he’s not that into her. One clue was his lack of sex drive, which he touched on during the Grass is Greener challenge.

“Danny’s low sex drive took a huge toll on his relationship with Bec. But whenever she tried to bring it up with him, he would say she was making his sex drive even lower,” a production insider tells Chattr.

However, when Bec dumped Danny after their Grass is Greener fight, the groom’s sex drive magically increased. “The couple started having sex three times a day after that. He realised that Bec was serious about leaving, so he used sex to convince her to stay for Final Vows and show they had a future together.”

This was confirmed during a TikTok Live that Bec appeared on with former MAFS bride Lauren Dunn.

“Leading up to this point actually, the sex was really, it was once a week. And I was like, you’re not into me,” she said. “After this… [we were having sex] on the reg. In the kitchen, in the bedroom.”

How Danny used the word ‘love’ to fool Bec

It wasn’t just sex that Danny used to convince Bec to stay for MAFS Final Vows, but he also used the three little words she had been waiting to hear from him for weeks.

“Danny thought that he would get more notoriety by staying with Bec and dumping her at Final Vows than leaving. He knew he didn’t want to be with her earlier on, but this way he would get more clout,” the source claims.

“Three weeks before Final Vows, Danny took Bec out on a date and talked about having children with her. He also told her he was falling in love with her just five days before Final Vows.”

According to the insider, Bec believed Danny’s lies and didn’t realise he was saying what she wanted to hear, only to dump her at MAFS Final Vows.

The truth all comes out eventually, so as soon as the participants get full control of their social media again, there’s bound to be plenty of IG Lives and Q&As. We can’t wait!

MAFS insider claims Gia and alt match James were sending flirty texts for months after Scott split

by Danica Baker

Married at First Sight (MAFS)‘s Gia Fleur’s flirting with her Grass is Greener match James played a major part in her split with Scott McCristal, and a source has revealed to Chattr that she allegedly stayed in touch with him for months after leaving the experiment.

The insider told Chattr that all of the Grass is Greener participants were given their matches’ social details straight after the task and were asked to follow them. They added that after James followed Gia, the pair immediately started texting, while she was with Scott.

“Gia spoke to her backup match, James, the night that they got home from the challenge. He was messaging her on Instagram. Scott knew about it and was fine with it because she sent him a photo of Scott saying, ‘I’m happy, leave me alone,'” they said.

However, the insider claims everything changed once Gia and Scott called it quits, with the messages taking on a very different tone.

“After the breakup, Gia kept messaging James, and she kept in touch with him right up until the show started airing in Feb, so they were in touch for about three months.”

“The messages that James sent were very flirty; he was definitely trying with her, but I’m not sure if she was engaging with him romantically,” they said, adding that while Gia and James were in constant communication, they never actually met up.

Producers told Grass is Greener participants to add their MAFS matches

While it looked to viewers as though Alissa’s match, Conor, went out of his way to track her down on social media, our source reveals that her handle was fed to him by producers.

“I know that the producers gave all of the alternate matches the Instagram handles of the brides, and all of them were asked to add them,” the source tells Chattr.

“So every single alternate match followed the brides on Instagram as soon as the Grass is Greener challenge was over.”

The source went on to say that while the latest MAFS episode makes it look as though Alissa crossed a line with her match, Conor, by adding him on Instagram, nothing happened between the two.

“Alissa and Conor never spoke again after the experiment,” they claim.

MAFS insider spills real reason Alissa’s match had her Instagram details

by Rachel Choy

Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2026 viewers were shocked when Alissa Fay admitted to husband David Momoh she had exchanged Instagram details with her backup match Conor Loughman. Sparks were flying between Alissa and the Ultimate Tag star during the Grass is Greener task, which hurt David deeply.

By the end of their fight, David and Alissa stormed out and removed their wedding rings, saying they were “done”. However, an insider close to production tells us there was some producer involvement in this storyline.

“I know that the producers gave all of the alternate matches the Instagram handles of the brides, and all of them were asked to add them,” the source tells Chattr.

“So every single alternate match followed the brides on Instagram as soon as the Grass is Greener challenge was over.”

While it seemed that Alissa overstepped during the task with her flirtatious nature, the insider confirms the bride didn’t pursue a relationship with Conor.

“Alissa and Conor never spoke again after the experiment,” they claim.

David thinks Alissa was ’emotionally cheating’

During an interview with Chattr, David reflected on Alissa’s actions and agreed that exchanging socials with another potential partner was akin to emotional cheating.

“There’s some things I’ll never speak on to the public and vice versa for her, but yeah, there’s more context,” he admitted.

“[But] for me, that was wrong. Like the fact that she did that,” David added.

David also said he was unhappy with the way Alissa tried to “lie” to him about the task, consistently describing the task as “networking”, even though she knew exactly what the Grass is Greener challenge represented.

“I wish she was just up front and said, this was a task, and I wanted to explore my option[s],” the groom explained. “If you’re gonna lie to my face… it wasn’t networking and friends, and you knew it was the grass is greener.”

The groom hated the part where Alissa jokingly told Conor to drop his trousers, and was shocked when watching the video footage.

“It’s the excuses for me. She was networking, apparently. I mean, when I watched it back, telling someone to drop their dacks, that didn’t seem like networking for me,” he said.

These two are no longer together on screen, but an insider told Chattr they make it to Final Vows. If you want to know what happens between the two, we have all the MAFS Final Vows spoilers here.

MAFS’ Bec confirms she was fired after her behaviour on the show: ‘Was devastated’

by Rachel Choy

Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2026 bride Bec Zacharia has confirmed she was fired after her employer saw the way she behaved on the show. She explained what went down during a TikTok Live, and it’s pretty juicy.

“It was just a situation where they felt like being in a front-facing situation, I obviously had a really, really bad Dinner Party three, the day after [the episode aired] they said maybe you should just come back once MAFS is done, and I said no,” Bec said.

“Then, a week to the day, they said we’ll pay you out. Gotta go. And here I am.”

Speaking to former MAFS bride Awhina Rutene earlier in the TikTok Live, she gave more details about what she did for a job and why her appearance on MAFS was so controversial.

“[I was a] professional schmoozer. Essentially, I look after people in key accounts, in a business that buys from us,” she said. “Take them out for dinners and lunches, all that sort of stuff. So pretty difficult being a front-facing figure when you’re on MAFS, and every two seconds you’re flying off the handle.”

An insider close to the situation told Chattr Bec was “devastated” and didn’t see this coming. “They worked with her and knew who she was, yet after watching Bec on TV at one of her lowest moments, they fired her,” the source said. “She understands her actions have consequences, but she was still devastated.”

MAFS’ Bec opens up about late ADHD diagnosis

Elsewhere in the TikTok Live with Awhina, Bec told viewers she had recently been diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

ADHD is a developmental disorder that affects executive functioning. This can mean people with ADHD struggle to self-regulate with emotions, thoughts and actions. Other common traits include being impulsive, easily distracted or having trouble concentrating.

Approximately one in 20 Australians has ADHD, but women are underdiagnosed.

The bride said it has been a “huge eye-opener” to understand the way her brain works, including her behaviour on MAFS. She chatted about her tendency to act first and then try to clean up the mess later, like her outbursts at the MAFS Dinner Party three.

“Doing things and then thinking about it afterwards, like everyone’s like, ‘Oh she’s always apologising’,” Bec added.

“It’s pretty wild, but it’s really liberating to know. Because it just changes your whole life and your perspective of everything.”

Insider dishes on the real reason Scott didn’t leave MAFS with Gia

by Danica Baker

Gia Fleur has finally left Married at First Sight (MAFS) for good, and Scott McCristal grew a backbone and decided not to walk out with her, bringing an end to their tumultuous relationship. However, a source close to production told Chattr that Scott initially wanted to leave with his TV wife, before producers intervened.

The source explained that Gia and Scott had agreed to leave together after their final date — which took place after the Grass is Greener challenge but before the participants were shown videos of how they acted there — but a producer convinced Scott to stick around.

“Gia and Scott had packed their bags, and Scott had promised her that he was leaving with her, and then, and then, all of a sudden, he didn’t want to leave. I know for a fact that the producer said to Scott, ‘Don’t leave, you want to stay so you can watch what happened on Grass is Greener.’ So that’s why he decided to stay, and he didn’t regret it after.”

The insider claimed that Gia’s goal was to get Scott out of the experiment before he could see the video of her flirting with her back up-match, James, at the challenge.

“She knew the video was coming, that’s why she was adamant about them leaving. She knew that she behaved inappropriately, and therefore the best option for her was to get him to leave before he saw any of it, because that meant that she wouldn’t have to be held accountable or be responsible.”

Source reveals pivotal moment Scott realised he had no future with Gia

The insider went on to say that Scott had admitted he couldn’t see a future with Gia prior to agreeing to leave the experiment with her.

“It was about three weeks before the end of the show, Scott told the boys in the gym that he was done with the relationship, but he didn’t know how to end it,” they revealed.

The source added that the connection between Scott and Gia was genuine, but said that they just weren’t a compatible match.

“Gia really wanted a future with Scott, but she also wanted someone who would bow down to her and do what she says, when she says it, as soon as she says it, and that was never going to be Scott.”
