Married At First Sight gave viewers 17 amazing seasons of heart-fluttering romance, but how many couples who got married on the US-version of the show are still together today?
Married At First Sight premiered in the USA in 2014 and, since then, has successfully brought together several compatible singles.
However, not all knots tied on the show worked out in real life, and many couples divorced afterward. None of the couples from Seasons 2, 3, 4, 13, 14, and 15 are still together.
Here are all the couples who tied the knot during the show and stayed together after the cameras stopped filming.
