Which Married At First Sight Australia Season 9 couples are still together?

They said "I do" on our screens - but who actually made it through the experiment? - by Tina Burke
  • 04 Apr 2022

One thing about Married At First Sight Australia is that it will absolutely deliver on the wine-throwing, temper tantrums, and cheating scandals year after year. But it rarely delivers on the lasting love stories.

In fact, just five out of 72 matches made by the show's love experts have stayed together beyond what they call "the experiment" and what we call "harrowing reality TV."

But as we watch Season 9 with clear eyes, full hearts, and low expectations, the reality could be that at least one of the new matches makes it all the way. After all, Season 8 delivered on two lasting love stories in 2021.

As our experts John Aiken, Mel Schilling and Alessandra Rampolla pull together a string of matches from the contestants, we'll be taking a look at which couples have made it on the outside.

Scroll through to see everything we know so far about which Married At First Sight Season 9 couples are still together...

tamara and brent
Nine Network

Are Tamara & Brent still together?

If we had to sum up Tamara and Brent's wedding day, we would go with "big yikes energy." These two were awkward and bickering from the get-go, exchanging barbs all the way from the altar, to the photoshoot, to the reception. 

"My wife is a psychopath," Brent declared to the cameras after his nuptials. And while we saw Brent and Tamara consistently "work" on their marriage it was clear theirs was not a love built to last. 

They went their separate ways during the Final Vows, after somehow making it through the entire experiment despite hating each other. And the clues were there all along, FYI.

The couple were not following each other on Instagram before the show started airing.

However, since the Nine Network is currently running the accounts for the participants, the team went and followed all of the other contestants from each account to try and hide any obvious splits or feuds. 

After all, it was a pretty major red flag that they aren't together when you look at some of the "happier couples" who were actually following each other.

On SportsBet, the pair were predicted to call it quits by the Final Vows. Not to mention, in a TikTok video by paparazzi photographer Jayden Seyfarth, Tamara and Brent were seen showing up separately to the MAFS Reunion. 

Our final verdict was that Tamara and Brent were heading for a messy split - and we were right.

selin and anthony
Nine Network

Are Selin & Anthony still together?

From the slow motion shots to the romantic string music, Selin and Anthony received the fairytale treatment in the MAFS premiere. But their ill-fated romance quickly fell apart and we spent weeks watching them bicker on our screens.

The pair finally went their separate ways in the third Commitment Ceremony, as predicted on SportsBet. Betting odds are often seen as a sign of a "leak" from someone close to the show, regularly predicting the winner of shows such as The Bachelor Australia or Australian Survivor. 

They were also one of the other couples who weren't following each other on Instagram, until the speculation began floating around. We have to take the betting odds and Instagram followers with a grain of salt, but it's clearly been accurate in this situation.

ella and mitch
Nine Network

Are Ella & Mitch still together?

It was full steam ahead for this sexy couple when they met at the altar in the second episode.

"[The experts] definitely hit the nail on the head with things I asked for," Ella said upon meeting Mitch, while he added: "Likewise. Likewise."

On SportsBet, they were actually predicted to make it all the way to the Final Vows together as a couple. Which they did, before leaving on shaky terms as Mitch asked her to "have patience."

But, they were also filmed walking hand-in-hand into the Reunion. So we knew they'd make it at least to the end of the experiment, but are they together now - four months later?

The morning after the finale, Ella confirmed she hasn't been with Mitchell since the Reunion. She also spoke to the rumours he's moved on with Tamara.

"I haven't seen Mitchell since the reunion," she told Nova's Fitzy & Wippa, adding that it wasn't "straightaway."

"He definitely started to drop off though and fizzle out. And it was probably about two months ago," she said. "Articles hit the media and then he sort of just cut me off."

"I'm still just healing and getting over stuff with Mitchell and Tamara and just all the crap that's been going on in the past few months, it still gets to me."

domenica and jack
Nine Network

Are Domenica & Jack still together?

These two were smitten when they laid eyes on each other, talking about all of their similarities mid-ceremony. From their shared Italian heritage to their love of dogs, they had plenty in common. 

"I think the experts have nailed it. Dom is beautiful, she’s lovely, and she seems totally unique," Jack said on their wedding day.

Much like Ella and Mitch, Domenica and Jack were predicted to make it to the end of the show on SportsBet. They did, before calling it quits in the weeks between filming their Final Vows in November 2021, and filming the Reunion in January 2022.

Fortunately, there are multiple clues that hint at these two being together! Even if they did show up to the Reunion separately.

They have been following each other on Instagram since the start, they received one of the most romantic wedding ceremony edits (meaning the producers are hoping we'll fall for their love story), and they've done multiple joint appearances together.

They've also been seen watching the reunion episode together, at Domenica's viewing party. 

We'll have to wait and see just what happened there, but at the very least Dom and Jack are still close as they remain in a friendship group with a few other co-stars.

holly and andrew
Nine Network

Are Holly & Andrew still together?

Their wedding day was filled with some unusual chatter, like whether or not he voted for Trump, but Holly and Andrew at least appeared to be heading in the right direction after their reception. And then the producers said "sike!" and unleashed a lot of drama.

We watched the couple have a very tumultuous relationship on our screens, and at the second Commitment Ceremony their short-lived romance finally came to an end. Andrew stormed out of the Dinner Party the night before, leaving Holly to attend alone.

"Trying not to scare someone off is a good lesson," Holly joked on the couch, before genuinely adding the experiment was "a reminder to believe in myself and to know that I am enough."

For the record, Andrew doesn't have a public Instagram (weird, just saying) so we weren't able to judge that whole thing. However, SportsBet had given them best odds to leave in the second week of Commitment Ceremonies and that turned out to be true. So far, the guessing system works!

selina
Nine Network

Are Cody & Selina still together?

Their wedding ceremony was kind of a bust, with Cody concerned that Selina - his literal bride - was asking too many relationship questions. 

Of course, things got worse when Selina asked Cody if he was struggling with his attraction to her because she is Asian. While his response left her devastated, Selina says she chose to stay because it was early days.

"At the end of the day [it was said] at the very early stages [of the relationship]. I had to take his word for it when he said he didn’t mean it that way," Selina told WHO of the crushing blow.

The couple have since been working on their connection on-screen with the help of the experts.

Off-screen and out in the real world, they are still following each other on Instagram and Cody follows her business account - which he might not be doing if they were just friends.

But then they showed up the reunion episode together one night, broken up the next. 

"I just feel silly because I thought this was love or heading towards that direction," Selina said, with Cody breaking up with her after the Dinner Party. "To me, you don't ask someone to move in with you if you didn't feel something deep for them."

"Last night it got to the point where Selina was [trying to hold my hand] but to me that felt very forced and it was just a realisation that it's for the best," he said.

"She needs someone who can show her [affection] and I can't."

Could they have somehow rekindled the romance and still be together all these months later? They haven't been spotted together much, so it's not looking like AMAZINGGGGG odds but we'll have to wait and see tomorrow when they can finally reclaim their story.

olivia and frazer
Nine Network

Are Olivia & Jackson still together?

This loved-up couple were fan-favourites early in the season, though Olivia's feud with Domenica has caused some friction in the relationship. Despite this, there are still plenty of clues she is still with Jackson.

They have been following each other on Instagram from the beginning, which is one pretty major clue that things have gone well for them. They were also favoured to make it to the end of the show on betting sites like SportsBet. And last but not least, they were the final other couple spotted arriving at the Reunion together.

In interviews since the "nude photo scandal" went to air - in which Olivia distributed a naked photo of Domenica without her consent - Jackson has been adamant in defending his partner and has made it clear they're still a united couple. They weathered the storm and seem to be happily in love now.

The couple are living together on the Central Coast, sticking by one another through the experiment and the "tough moments" as the show airs.

samantha and al
Nine Network

Are Samantha & Al still together?

Samantha snapped "I want a divorce" during her photo-shoot with her "fun-loving" husband Al, so we things were not looking promising.

"Al is super fun and he's very beautiful to look at but true love takes a lot more than perfect bone structure," Sam said to the cameras on their wedding day.

But have things improved? Unfortunately not. The pair left the experiment in the final Commitment Ceremony.

Like some other couples, Sam and Al only just followed each other on Instagram recently, despite having previously followed all of their co-stars. They were also predicted to dip out before the end of the series on SportsBet. Another one bites the dust it seems.

carolina and dion
Nine Network

Are Carolina & Dion still together?

Carolina was three hours late to her wedding ceremony, but still managed to make a sweet impression on Dion on their special day. And then it all went downhill, with Carolina looking to 'couple swap' for a new groom: Daniel Holmes. 

Are they still together? Even someone who just watches the trailers could probably answer this one, but no.

The pair finally went their separate ways at the second-last Commitment Ceremony - when Carolina showed up halfway through with Daniel, after leaving Dion sitting alone.

Once again, the signs were there. Carolina and Dion are not following each other on Instagram at the moment. Dion was also spotted rocking up to the Reunion episode alone, and there was also lots of evidence to suggest Carolina is now with Daniel.

kate and matt
Nine Network

Are Kate & Matt still together?

The only good thing we can report about Kate and Matt's wedding day is that it successfully ruined Chicken Twisties for the population of Australia. Good. Those things are gross and we're sick of people whipping them out as snacks anyway, so we're counting that as a win.

Otherwise, Kate seemed entirely uninterested in her groom as she revealed she wasn't feeling a "spark." While their wedding day was a bit of a rough start, the couple did manage to have some sweet moments before ultimately calling it quits in the second-last Commitment Ceremony.

Matt and Kate were both following each other on Instagram ahead of their premiere episode, which is a sign that they've remained on friendly terms at the very least!

jess and dan
Nine Network

Are Jessica & Daniel still together?

A fight on their wedding night, followed by another on the honeymoon? ANOTHER BIG YIKES.

"She's beautiful," Daniel gushed over his bride at the wedding. "She looks like the type of girl who knows what she wants and who can challenge me a little. I'm happy."

But things quickly went downhill when Jess spoke about her "real wedding" in the future (you know, the one not filmed for TV). While they patched things up temporarily, they got into another barney on the honeymoon and later again at the first Dinner Party. 

The couple left about three minutes after moving in to their apartment, which came as a shock to absolutely no one. While Daniel felt crushed by his match with Jess, he's been seen moving on with Carolina.

Married At First Sight Australia airs Monday to Wednesday, 7:30pm, and Sunday, 7pm, on Nine Network and 9Now.
