Married At First Sight 2020 Cast Revealed

Buckle up! - by Penelope Kilby
  • 15 Jan 2020

The lucky - or unlucky - dip of love that is Married At First Sight, is back for its seventh season, and the 2020 cast is easily the best yet... just ask them!

MUST WATCH: MARRIED AT FIRST SIGHT OFFICIAL TEASER

CONNIE, 27.

Introducing, Connie - a woman battling low self esteem and a livid mother.

'After a while you just kind of think, what's wrong with me if every single person that I meet doesn't want a bar of me? What am I doing wrong?' she says, admitting that at 27, she's lonely. 'I don't think I'm ugly but I don't think there's anything striking about me.'

Stop. Yes there is, girl. Just ask Aussie music superstar, Tina Arena!

'You are so strikingly beautiful. You just haven't met the right person to share that beauty with, but you will... the moment YOU start to believe in YOURSELF, is the moment someone will believe in YOU,' the singer commented via the show's Facebook page.

As for Connie's mum, well, she has a reasonable opinion about the TV dating experiment, however, the evil cackle she oozed when Connie spilled her wedding plans was reminiscent of the evil stepmother in Cinderella.

The bride-to-be’s sister also did her best evil stepsister impression.

'I can't stand that show. This show can be quite manipulating,' Connie’s mum snapped after recovering from her cackling fit.

She told Connie, 'I think it's ridiculous and catty. That's everything you're not.'

AMANDA MICALLEF, 34.

Instagram: @amanda_divinephysiques 

A 'strength and mindset coach', this lover of 'Sneakers & Versace' marries Tash on season seven of MAFS. 

She is also the host of her own podcast which focuses on strength training, health and wellness. 

In the promo, Amanda is seen in tears as some of her loved ones refuse to show up for the show's first ever same sex wedding.

We have our fingers crossed for these two!

MIKEY PEMBROKE, 29.

Instagram: @mikeypembroke

Mikey Pembroke has labelled himself a 'real estate and marketing' professional, awkward and wealthy. What a combination!

And apparently the Sydneysider is keen to share his dosh with his soulmate, and perhaps a few selfies on his Instagram account.

An obvious lover of Instagram, he was once a regular on fitness influencer, Katie Williams' page, whom he used to date.

CATHY EVANS, 26.

YouTube Channel: @CathyEvans

Instagram: @summertanx

'It's Cathy ya dogs,' is how she introduces herself on Instagram. She's also a big 'Youtuber and Meme Lord.'

One of the most beautiful of the 2020 cast, the outspoken Kiwi has made a career out of uploading videos to YouTube, most of which are dedicated to all her bad dates - so MAFS should be a walk in the park!

STEVEN BURLEY, 51.

Instagram: @barberskingsman 

A barber from inner-city Melbourne, Steven is the eldest contestant on MAFS 2020.

And he's no stranger to reality TV, having dated 2018 MasterChef Australia winner, Diana Chan.

On his Instagram account, the testicular cancer survivor advises his followers, 'Therapy is expensive. Get a haircut instead. We're great listeners.' 

And while he sounds like a bit of a catch, if the whispers are true, Steven is a cheater! It's believed Steven was paired up with single mum, Mishel Meshes, who learns on her wedding day that her new spouse has been unfaithful, just like the seven-out-of-eight men she previously dated. 

Ouch!

ELIZABETH SOBINOFF, 28.

Instagram: @lizalizzieelizabeth

To say Elizabeth had a rough go on last season of MAFS would be an understatement, considering she was fat-shamed by TV 'husband' Sam Ball, who then made her out to be a liar. 

Oh, and who also had an affair with fellow contestant Ines Basic. 

However, our girl got the last laugh by serving the most epic and empowering speech when Sam chose not to face the two women he hurt at the reunion, which subsequently went down as one of the most bad a** moments in MAFS history. 

Fingers crossed Lizzie has more luck the second time around!

MICHAEL GOONAN, 28.

Show me the money! At just 24, Michael says he became a millionaire when he scored shares in his family ice business.

Noooooo. Not THAT type of ice. The frozen water kind.

According the whispers, Scotland-born Michael is looking for a bride who can whip him into shape. Sounds naughty!

POPPY MARIE, 38.

'I've got two-year-old twins and when they were six-weeks-old, my husband had a terrible accident,' she recalls. 'He tripped and fell into his co-worker's vagina and he's still stuck there!'
Poppy says she was sitting on the couch breastfeeding her baby boys when her husband announced he was leaving her for his co-worker.
She said she sprung her cheating hubby after getting a gut feeling and checking his email account. There, she found photo evidence.
Poor Poppy!

IVAN SARAKULA, 30.

Or should be call him Ivan the Terrible?

A man with 'traditional family values,' this Ukranian-born groom urinated for the cameras on his wedding day, tuxedo included.

What's even more charming about this groom, is that he hope 'his new bride sticks around long enough' to see he's much more than his offensive opinions. 

Ivan will EASILY be one of the most polarising members of the 2020 cast, so now the big question is, who's the lucky lady?

HAYLEY VERNON, 32.

Instagram: @h_a_y_l_e_y_h_a_i_l_s

'I've got a lot of drive, I've got goals and I've got ambitions. I want someone that can balance me,' Hayley, a recovering drug addict tells her fellow brides in her MAFS promo.

Tash Hetz is gobsmacked and also fearful for Mr Hayley Vernon, after the fitness fanatic talks at rapid speed and over the top of the other ladies. 'Good luck to him,' Tash said before taking a sip from her very full wine glass.

From twerking and rapping at the televised wedding to some serious confrontations with both the men and women, Hayley is one hell of a firecracker! 

'Why wouldn't [my husband] love me? I'm a thousand different women wrapped into one.'

Seb is an athlete who has played at a high level of AFL, representing the Northern Territory Thunder and the SANFL Woodville-West Torrens. 

Rumour has it AFL player Seb is going to be paired with Lizzie, and we swear to god Seb if you break her heart we're going to come and find you! 

Just joking (but not really).

ALEKSANDRA MARKOVIC, 31.

Aleksandra has been on TV before, featuring on Channel Seven's show Take Me Out.

So far (and according to Take Me Out) Aleksandra said her "deal-breaker" was someone who is a gym junkie (thank goodness she didn't get paired with Seb). 

According to her Instagram bio, Aleksandra is a real estate agent and singing teacher. 

Growing up in a traditional Serbian household, Aleks says her family think she should be married 'with four kids' by now.

TASH HERZ, 31.

Instagram: @tashherz 

Tash is the second half of MAFS first-ever female same-sex couple.

We'd say this 2020 cast member is a bit of a romantic. 'If i don't romanticise everything i do i’ll die,' she tells her Instagram followers.

Not much else is known about Tash, but she looks like she's just as into training as her TV wife, so they'll at least have that in common!

Stacey is a single mother to two boys, Kosta and Kruz, and is also a recent law graduate. 

According to the Daily Mail, Stacey is set to be the next Jessika Power (aka the star of the show) so we cannot wait to see who she gets paired with.

DAVID, 31.

According to reports, David is a 'wannabe cowboy who is looking to lasso a wife.' 

With some serious body ink creeping out of his wedding day tux, he's sure to catch the eye of some of the other tattooed brides.

Giddy up!

VANESSA ROMITO, 31.

Instagram: @vanessaromito_

Vanessa tells viewers of her YouTube channel, 'We all have flaws and insecurities but that's what makes us a different type of perfect. Be happy with who you are.'

So how will this bride feel about a groom with flaws?

Vanessa had the pleasure of watching her ex-boyfriend, Bronson Norrish marry Ines Basic on the 2019 season of MAFS - and says he dumped her just to appear on the reality show. Ouch!

Plus, 'He went on to tell me that he was seeing six women while he was getting to know me. He said, "that's what I usually do when I'm single – start dating six girls and the last one standing is who I date", she said. 'He said, "congratulations, Ness. You're the last one standing."'

We have our fingers crossed she finds her Mr Right.

MISHEL MESHES, 48.

INSTAGRAM: @mishel_meshes

'Why can't I meet a guy that actually likes me?' she asks relationship guru, John Aiken, who replied, 'How many guys are we talking about that have cheated on you?'

'Seven. And I've only dated eight,' Mishel admitted. Yes. SEVEN!

As we mentioned, Mishel's newest relationship also looks doomed.

Mishel's daughter is seen begging her mother to reconsider her TV wedding to a total stranger.

And with good reason. Mishel learns that her new hubby is a... umm... CHEATER!

The plus side of this saga is, Mishel's son Sam is SUPER hawt.
