Former Married At First Sight (MAFS) contestant Nasser Sultan was apparently supposed to be part of The Traitors Australia 2026 celebrity cast. However, after a long casting process, he wasn’t asked to the castle for the devious game, which is supposedly filming in New Zealand at the moment.
He tells Chattr it’s “the biggest disappointment [and] let down in Australia’s reality TV history”, that he didn’t make it on The Traitors Australia Season 3. His suspicion is that some other former reality TV stars made it a non-negotiable that Nasser couldn’t participate on the show, which is spicy.
“I did like over an hour and 20 minutes Zoom interview… and she said, ‘Oh my god, we know all about you, we would love to have you on’,” Nasser claims. “She said, ‘Look, that’s a big tick for me. I think I’d love to have you on board. I’ve got to go back to my producers’.
“She went back, made me wait a month, and then came back and wrote an email saying, ‘Oh sorry, he missed out’.”
The former MAFS groom also claims he has been approached for numerous Channel 10 shows but never made it to the final cut, including The Bachelor, Big Brother, and I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!
“Something is going on that I don’t know. So either someone hates my guts or someone is afraid that I will take their limelight,” Nasser theorises.

Nasser also says that producers contacted other MAFS contestants, but we won’t be seeing anyone from MAFS 2025 — such as Jamie Marinos, Carina Mirabile, or Jeff Gobbels — because they’re still under contract with Channel Nine.
“I’ve heard [past MAFS contestants] have been approached, not last year, the year before,” Nasser claims. “You know with… Dom [Calarco] and Ella [Ding], that sort of season. I think they’ve been approached because they’re all out of contract.”
He also says that Real Housewives of Sydney’s Krissy Marsh is supposedly one of the cast members for The Traitors Australia 2026, and thinks there are also some former Love Island Australia contestants in the mix.
The show will air on Channel 10 sometime in 2026, and we have other juicy details about The Traitors Australia here, including the Australian Survivor player rumoured to be in the cast.
You can stream The Traitors Australia on 10 and 10Play.
