With Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2026 about to hit our screens, the MAFS 2026 cast is set to deliver drama, emotion, and entertainment. One participant who already stands out is Adelaide bride Alissa Fay.
She’s tipped to be one of the most talked-about brides from MAFS 2026, and already has a large fanbase.
Here’s everything we know about Alissa so far.
What does MAFS’ Alissa do for work?
Alissa is both a social media influencer and a nurse. She has over 268,000 followers on TikTok and works with different brands online. She’s walked red carpets, flown to the other side of the world, and shares slices of her life on TikTok.
The bride is an ambassador for the car brand Southern Chery, and was even flown to Paris for a photoshoot with them. On TikTok, she described it as an “experience” she would “never forget”.
“If you had told me when I started my social media career five years ago that I would be working with Australian Motors / Southern Chery I wouldn’t have believed you,” she said. “So unbelievably grateful to be on this journey with Southern Chery.”
Her most popular TikTok has over 2.2 million views, so she will be bringing her built-in fan base along for the ride.

Alissa is “fiery but lovable”
According to Daily Mail, Alisa’s friends say she’s “fiery but lovable” and “someone who doesn’t back down from a challenge”.
The bride is said to love the spotlight (which seems true, considering her social media presence) and will likely be the talk of the town during MAFS 2026.
She recently ended a high-profile relationship, with sources claiming she’s on the show to find love. Time will tell!
Who is Alissa matched with on MAFS 2026?
MAFS hasn’t started airing yet, and we won’t know which groom Alissa is matched wth until we see her walk down the aisle.
MAFS 2026 premieres on Monday, February 2 at 7.30pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
