Married at First Sight Australia is back! Here's everything we know about the MAFS 2024 cast...

For those who have been waiting for MAFS Australia 2024 to start, the time is finally here as the favourite reality matchmaking show is due to air in the UK any day now. A new set of hopeful brides and grooms will be hoping to find their perfect match with the help of relationship experts John Aiken, Mel Shillings and Alessandra Rampolla. There's just one small catch: they have to marry their match before they meet them.

Season 11 is already underway Down Under, but before the drama, dinner parties and couple swapping arrive on UK screens, let's take a look at the MAFS Australia cast for 2024...
