Meet the ‘MAFS’ Fan Favorites Returning for Spinoff ‘Couples Couch’

Lifetime reality series Married at First Sight (MAFS) is inviting back some of the show’s most popular personalities to watch along and comment on new episodes of the show’s currently airing sixteenth season.

The new spinoff series Couples Couch kicks off on February 23 and sees former Married at First Sight favorites returning to give their opinions on the latest group of hopeful romantics. The returning stars include successful couples, as well as those who weren’t so lucky in love.

“We are so excited to sit on our couch and recap the show that brought us together!” Ashley and Anthony from MAFS Chicago told E! News. “It’s easier watching it than living it that’s for sure!”

In addition to the MAFS alum, Couples Couch will also feature commentary from podcasters Justin and Shay Davis, Survivor’s Remorse actress Erica Ash, former NFL punter Jon Ryan and his wife, comedian Sarah Colonna.

MAFS debuted on July 8, 2014, originally on FYI before moving to Lifetime. The series follows a group of strangers who participate in a social experiment and are paired together by experts. As of July 2022, 13 couples from the show remain married.

Season 16 of MAFS premiered on January 4 and features couples from Nashville. New episodes air Wednesdays on Lifetime at 8/7c.
