It’s been a while, so which couples from MAFS Australia 2023 are still together?
Gosh they’re all so cute
It’ll soon be one year since the day the Married at First Sight Australia couples met for the very first time. A lot of the relationships from season 10 didn’t work out and there were only a handful of those during the final vows. However, there are a select few who made it out the other end and have stayed together despite the many challenges, tests and activities thrown their way during the experiment. So who is still together from MAFS Australia 2023?
Here’s a rundown of all the couples who stayed in a relationship after the MAFS Australia experiment.
Ollie and Tahnee
Ollie and Tahnee were everyone’s favourite couple during this year’s show, largely due to their smooth relationship and instant click on their wedding day.
After the experiment, the pair chose to stay in a relationship and have since moved in together. Ollie was quick to join Tahnee in Sydney and moved into her apartment and they have recently moved into a house of their own.
The couple opted to move after reports of them feeling unsafe in Surry Hills after a number of incidents in the area. They both still keep in contact with their MAFS Australia co-stars and are good friends with Rupert and Janelle.
Tahnee has gone back to her day job as a PR manager since the experiment while Ollie has launched his own podcast with his first special guest being Rupert.
Melinda and Layton
Melinda and Layton are one couple who no one saw coming. The pair got off to a rocky start, especially since Melinda wasn’t too keen on her groom on their wedding day. Eventually they got along and are now living together and planning to get a dog. The couple have been living together since the experiment and Layton revealed he plans to relocate from Sydney to Brisbane to be with her.
“I love Brisbane. I think it’s awesome. We’ve just been waiting for the show to finish airing to sort out timings, and what that looks like,” Layton told Woman’s Day. Melinda added they plan on adopting a dog at some point. “I want an Italian greyhound. It’s just me as a dog,” Melinda joked.
Both Melinda and Layton have gone back to their day jobs since the experiment ended, with Melinda recently opening up a brand new salon. The couple are both currently on holiday in Bali, something they had to keep quiet for a long time.
“For my Xmas present, Layton surprised me with tickets to Bali. We were unable to post at the time as it was one week prior to the show airing and we didn’t want to ruin the ending of our MAFS journey for you guys. So, these next four days we will be taking you inside our trip,” Melinda wrote on Instagram.
Evelyn and Duncan
Evelyn and Duncan may not have been matched together originally but they were on the same season, so it counts. Evelyn was originally matched with Rupert and Duncan with Alyssa, but when their respective final vows ended in heartbreak – they found solace in one another.
Following the hard launch of their relationship, Evelyn and Duncan have been attending events together and have even been on some staycations. Their success is proving to be continuous as Evelyn has been tipped to star in Celebrity Apprentice while Duncan has gone back to his day job.
A TV insider told Yahoo Channel Nine is “keen to keep Evelyn in the family and really champion her” moving forward. The source claimed: “She is popular, relatable and always has dreamed of working in TV, so now it’s just a matter of developing her skills and finding the right opportunities.
“This could be anything from hosting segments on Today Extra to landing her own digital series or even appearing on Celebrity Apprentice if they bring it back. There are a lot of possibilities and it’s all very exciting for her.”
