There have been rumours that Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2026 could be filled with some very familiar faces. Apparently, Channel Nine could be planning to mix things up by producing the first MAFS All-Stars season.
The news was first reported by PEDESTRIAN.TV, but after Chattr asked a few past MAFS contestants, nobody knew where the rumour came from.
Tahnee Cook, who was previously married to Ollie Skelton on Season 10, tells Chattr she definitely won’t be on the cast list. We’re kind of disappointed, because it would be so fun to see her back on MAFS stirring up chaos!
“I seriously have no idea where that rumour has come from as far as I’m aware I haven’t heard anything from my circle, but I’ve definitely made some jokes about doing it [in the past],” she spills.
“However, I absolutely wouldn’t [go back on MAFS] based on what the men are like… and I think I survived it once unscathed, I don’t want to try my luck again!”
Tahnee adds that it would likely be an “interesting watch” and is unsure if returning contestants would make for a more dramatic show.
“Maybe with past MAFS people, we won’t have as much drama of people not following the rules and going super rogue, but it could be the opposite too,” she says.
Adrian Araouzou and Carina Mirabile want to join MAFS All-Stars
Adrian Araouzou was one of the most polarising MAFS 2025 contestants this year, after his relationship with Awhina Rutene imploded. He tells Chattr he’d be down to join MAFS All-Stars if they come calling.
“I’d be surprised if this is a thing and they didn’t invite me back,” he says. “The only condition is my MAFS All-Stars match can’t live further than an hour flight from me.”
Carina Mirabile tells Chattr she’s also keen to return for MAFS All-Stars, and after what happened with Paul Antoine, she definitely deserves a second chance!
“After my experience on MAFS, I’ve grown so much emotionally and mentally, and how I approach relationships. I didn’t get the love story I hoped for, but I stayed true to myself, and I’m proud of that but let’s be real — people made judgements about who I am based on just a snapshot of me,” she spills.
“There’s so much more to show, and I’d love the chance to really let people in on the full Carina. The Taurus is ready to be unleashed, and I’m not afraid of a little juicy drama or gossip — it’s part of the ride, and I’m here for it.”
Carina says that if any past contestants unleash on her during MAFS All-Stars, she won’t hesitate to fight back.
“I’ve got experience now, I know how the situation works, and I’m not backing down. I’m coming back smarter, stronger, and ready to bring the energy — whether it’s for love, redemption, or just to stir the pot a little,” she reveals.
“Most importantly, a big reason I’d come back — I’ve got more to give, more to show, and I want to do it with a fresh mindset, worked on self-love and confidence, gained more strength, and a clearer understanding of what I want and deserve. I still believe in love, and I’m not done with my journey yet.”
Who else is likely to join the cast of MAFS All-Stars?
According to PTV’s insider, some potential MAFS All-Stars contestants were contacted last week. Producers are checking availability, relationship statuses and are avoiding any contestants who spoiled the show while it was airing.
Their source claimed Season 4’s Cheryl Maitland is a hot contender for the show, particularly for her iconic sense of humour.
“They want to bring back the humour,” the source said. “Finally, less toxicity and more tea.”
Guess it will be less wine-throwing and more comedic entertainment, which could be a fresh start for the show. Either way, it’s bound to be a hit.
