Which Married At First Sight 2021 couples are still together?

Because they can't do worse than last year. - by Alex Lilly
  • 05 Mar 2021

Not even a pandemic could stop Married At First Sight coming back for an eighth season. That's right, it's the eighth time the experts have huddled around and matched up a host of *interesting* Aussie individuals looking for love. 

Facebook has changed the way you receive your news and gossip. Scroll to end of this story to see how to keep up to date with WHO!

Excluding the current season, only three couples out of a whopping 60 are still together - season two's Erin Bateman and Bryce Mohr, season six's Martha Kalifatidis and Michael Brunelli and season six's Cam Merchant and Jules Robinson, the latter of whom legally married in November 2019.

But according to MAFS' Mel Schilling, she and her fellow experts may be able to do the scientific matching side of the experiment, but it's only as helpful as getting the couple to the altar.

"We can’t control the spark so when people do get together one of the unknowns is whether they’re going to physically spark with each other," she previously told WHO, adding that it's also unknown how each individual as well as each couple will work under pressure.

"Then of course there’s the group dynamic and the impact of that pressure and judgement of other people on them so there are so many factors that we can’t control."

The MAFS experts for 2021 have matched a new batch of single Aussies.

Nine

There are sure to be more ups and downs than we dare to count as the brides and grooms navigate their new marriages, but hopefully we'll have at least one couple still together by the end of the series and beyond.

Keep scrolling as we keep you updated on which couples are still together, and who's joined the MAFS alumni majority.

s

Can Melissa and Bryce go the distance?

Nine

Melissa and Bryce - Jury's still out

It was a good first impression for the season's first wedding, despite the understandable nerves.

"Straight away I'm thinking that the experts have done a good job," Melissa mused upon meeting husband Bryce.

In fact, there are some sneaky Instagram clues that the couple may still be together - both shared photos of themselves indoor rock climbing to their individual profiles and in January Canberra-based Bryce shared some photos of himself down in Melissa's hometown of Melbourne.

What's more, after their wedding episode aired they made a joint live cross from Melbourne, suggesting that they're still together and living in the Victorian capital. Pics also emerged of Melissa watching one of Bryce's soccer games.

However, with constant clashes about attraction and their past dating experiences, we don't reckon these two will have an easy ride.

It wasn't a romantic start for Rebecca and Jake.

Nine

Rebecca and Jake - We doubt it

Jake may have liked what he saw when his bride approached him at the altar, but it was quite the opposite for her.

"He's looking at me like I am sex on a stick," Rebecca stated, before rattling off a list of his bad qualities including his lack of a tie and that his tattoos were visible.

Add that to the lack of chemistry and Jake's alleged shady past, we don't see these two being the Cam and Jules of the season.

What's more, Jake appears to be back home in Melbourne whilst Beck has been sharing photos from her hometown of Perth so they're either long-distance (doubtful) or donezo.

s

A fairytale wedding for Samantha and Cameron.

Nine

Samantha and Cameron - Fizzled out?

The attraction was instant for Samantha and Cameron on their wedding day and it appeared the experts nailed it.

However it's still early days and fans are already trying hard to not get attached to these two.

"I would say Samantha & Cameron look like they might be good together but normally 10 minutes after I say that they are fighting so....I might just not bother with that statement," one viewer tweeted after their wedding episode aired.

Cameron's also been cosying up to bride Coco so a couple swap seems to be on the cards in the coming episodes.

b

Booka and Brett seem like a perfect match.

Nine

Booka and Brett - The drama-free faves

These two adorable quirky individuals sure do make one adorable quirky couple.

It seems from the get-go that Booka and Brett could be the couple that flies under the radar but according to The Wash, not everything is as perfect as it seems.

The publication noticed via Instagram that rock musician and mental health worker Booka enjoyed a MAFS viewing party in her hometown of Perth when her wedding aired but Brett was not in attendance. And the pics show her looking a bit glum.

Secondly, Booka isn't following Brett on Instagram and the only co-star she's following is Jake Edwards whom she first crossed paths with before filming through her music therapy project, Sonic Minds.

Let's hope these sneaky clues are just a trick to throw us off the scent.

c

Hmmm, Coco and Sam aren't exactly the poster couple of the season.

Nine

Coco and Sam - As if

With Coco's loud shrieks and Sam's side-eye, their wedding wasn't exactly the fairytale day either probably expected.

Seeing as both are loud, proud and don't hold back we have low expectations for these two making it work in the real world.

Plus, it's looking like Cam and Coco's affair is about to get underway. Guess we'll have to stay tuned...

j

Jo and James make a cute couple.

Nine

Jo and James- We're not holding our breath

It wouldn't be MAFS without a questionable pairing - fans are already confused as to why insecure mum and barber Jo was matched with fellow parent and prestige car company owner James.

"We're getting along like a house on fire, but I noticed that he has this Rolex watch, so I am worried that we are from completely different worlds," Jo admitted on their wedding day.

Also, in an interview with Queensland radio duo Cliffo and Gabi after their wedding episode, the hosts noticed that Jo was referring to her and James' relationship in past tense but quickly backtracked. Hmm...

Can this reformed party boy settle down and be a good husband?

Nine

Alana and Jason - It's promising

There was a lot of shy awkwardness when teacher Alana and construction estimator Jason met at the altar.

It wasn't exactly a love at first sight moment but it seems like these two could be a slow burn.

Speaking to the Hit Network's Bec, Cosi & Lehmo in February, Alana was asked how she and Jason were going and though she made sure not to give any spoilers, the MAFS bride basically confirmed that they were still an item.

"I think we're going pretty good," she told the radio trio.

b

The ring is still on!

Nine

Belinda and Patrick - Holy guacamole we love them

The nerves were there when they met at the altar but we were swooning when Patrick said that Belinda was one of the most beautiful girls he's seen.

And it seems like the couple could still be together now that filming has wrapped.

In pics obtained by The Wash taken in February, Patrick was snapped dancing up a storm in Sydney with friends and he still had his wedding ring on. Unless he's secretly married someone else, we're taking this as a good sign.

f

That body language says it all.

Nine

Beth and Russell - Unsurprisingly over

We have to admit, this pairing isn't one of the experts' best.

Beth and Russell were like chalk and cheese on their wedding day and didn't even have their family and friends there to make it a little less awkward due to COVID restrictions and it seems the pair will not be professing their love for one another in the final vows.

Three months before the show aired, The Wash received a DM from a woman who met Russell at a Sydney bar and the groom ended up spilling a lot of spoilers, including what happened with his wife.

"He kept showing his empty ring finger when everyone asked if he was still together," the woman's message said.

"I think he told me he made it to about week 6 from memory hahahah."

The cherry on top of the cake? So Dramatic fans in Adelaide have discovered that he's on dating app, Hinge.
