It comes after producers reportedly warned the 2025 cast not to speak to “fame-hungry” former participants.
Past Married at First Sight Australia participants have revealed why producers don’t want the 2025 cast to talk to them.
Daily Mail Australia recently reported that Channel Nine warned the next batch of brides and grooms to stay away from “fame-hungry” former contestants after one 2025 groom was caught DMing a past participant.

“[Producers have] seen how some of these former cast members have become ‘fame-hungry’ and are trying to use the new cast to keep their name in the headlines,” one source dished.
In light of the reports, multiple former brides took to the So Dramatic! Communi-TEA Facebook group to reveal the truth behind these producer warnings.
Why don’t Married at First Sight producers want the new cast to contact former participants?
2022 bride Olivia Frazer, who’s been very vocal about the harmful impacts of the marriage experiment, claimed that producers didn’t want the old contestants to support the new cast.
“They just don’t want old participants to help the new participants, or hinder production’s abuse in any way,” she penned.
2023 star Lyndall Grace wholeheartedly agreed, revealing that she wished she’d spoken to people who’d gone through the experiment before her stint.

“[Producers] told our season that the [past contestants] were just hoping to ‘boost’ off our game, when really, I’ve just trauma dumped and bonded with ex-participants,” she wrote.
“Exactly,” Olivia replied. “Endemol Shine Australia (MAFS‘ production company) gave zero f*cks about the abuse I was copping.
“It was [Bryce Ruthven and Melissa Rawson] from Season Eight on the phone to me every day, making sure I was okay.”
It comes as Olivia called for reality TV reform after admitting her time on MAFS ruined her mental health.
