Married at First Sight (MAFS) was an absolute rollercoaster this season, but in good news the 2025 participants are due to get their social media back on May 12 and we can’t wait for the next wave of drama to unfold.
Two inside sources previously told Chattr they’d be back on Instagram and TikTok as of today, so we’re keeping our eyes peeled to see who drops the first AMA!
MAFS bride Awhina Rutene also dropped on her burner Instagram account last night that she’d be moving back onto her main profile at some stage today.
MAFS’ Eliot drops when MAFS cast will get their TikTok accounts back
Eliot Donovan is one of the cheeky cast members who went rogue during the season and has amassed a huge following on TikTok with over 260k followers on his new account @not_eliotd.
In a recent TikTok he posted with Carina Mirable and Jamie Marinos ahead of a club appearance, Eliot dropped that the cast would be getting their social media back sometime next week, saying it would be in “10 days” after a fan asked when Carina would be back on TikTok.

MAFS’ Jamie reveals when the 2025 cast get their Instagram and TikTok accounts back
Jamie previously told the Stav, Abby & Matt Show that the cast won’t get their Instagram and TikTok accounts back until sometime in May, saying anyone currently active on their original personal accounts has “hacked” the system.
“The people who have got it [social media] back, are the people who have hacked in,” Jamie said. “So my ex-husband [Dave Hand], who has hacked in to post thirst traps, Jacqui [Burfoot] has been going rogue, my new love interest Eliot [Donovan] has always had a separate account,” Jamie then laughed.
The reason why MAFS stars don’t get their accounts back straight away
“You gotta wait until it finishes airing in the UK,” Jamie confirmed. “It’s actually a really good duty of care, imagine how many people would be messaging, like, Adrian [Araouzou] that they hate him.”
Jamie also said Channel Nine doesn’t go into the participants’ accounts, with DMs disabled, and social media posts all managed via a third-party app.
Which MAFS stars are active on social media right now?
As Jamie mentioned, there’s been a few MAFS stars go rogue this season, most notably Jacqui, Eliot, Adrian, and Ryan who have all regained some control over their own narratives as the show has aired.
Morena Farina also used her DJ account to get her story across, and participants like Lauren Hall apparently never handed over access in the first place.
Dave, Veronica [Cloherty], and Clint [Rice] are all people who managed to get back into their original accounts, with Clint telling Chattr: “I was literally just there one night. I was on my TikTok on my other account. And I was like, Oh, I might just try and add my other one. I added it, then I used my face ID and opened it and I was in!”
