And just like that another cheating scandal has rocked Australia’s favourite (and most tumultuous) reality TV franchise. Well, kind of.
The latest dinner party of the 2025 season has seemingly revealed that something is up between Sierah Swepstone and Adrian Araouzou…but will this be reminiscent of past ‘couple swap’ storylines and end in a happily ever after, or is it just some skilled editing to finish the episode with a bang? Either way, the suspense is killing us as we wait for the next episode to find out more.
Are Adrian and Sierah together?
When Married at First Sight Australia officially kicked off this year, Aussies watched Sierah wed Billy Belcher – and from what we’ve seen so far, the couple definitely seemed to be vibing.
The same week, we watched Adrian marry Awhina Rutene, and although the two had some serious chemistry, the pair have also experienced their fair share of speedbumps over the weeks.
Up until now, we really haven’t seen the two couples interact much, which is why it came as such a surprise when the camera closed in on Adrian and Sierah at a recent dinner party.
The footage may have been fleeting and dark, but it did look like the two were playing footsies under the table? And look, we’re no experts on cheating, and we know getting caught tapping feet under a table isn’t *exactly* the most salacious MAFS dinner party storyline…but it’s definitely odd considering the pair’s spouses were also present and oblivious to the under-the-table action.
The episode itself didn’t really have much more information on what’s happening between Adrian and Sierah, although the bride did tell the table that she had “hung out with Adrian most of the day.”
We’ll have to wait until the Commitment Ceremony on Sunday to find out what’s next for the two, but Sierah’s husband Billy did talk to our sister site TV WEEK about the situation.
“I had no idea that happened,” he told the publication. “I did, however, know there was something going on between them. Awhina (Adrian’s wife) and I weren’t happy. We signed up to be with our partners and when we watched them getting closer, it wasn’t nice. It was very difficult to watch. I felt a bit sad.”
“That week was a struggle,” he explained of Intimacy Week. “Intimacy for me is not just physical. I was struggling to get through to Sierah [emotionally].”
“The last thing I thought when I packed up my life for this experiment would be my partner maybe having a connection with somebody else,” he added. “It was a betrayal; it’s not something I agreed with and it’s not something the rest of the group agreed with.”
