Here come the brides (and grooms!)
Married At First Sight UK launches in a few weeks, and fans have gotten their first glimpse at the next batch of singles looking for their happily-ever-after.
The couples will be matched by returning experts Melanie Schilling, Paul C. Brunson, and Charlene Douglas, marrying someone they've never met.
The couples then embark on a luxurious honeymoon, before moving in with each other and their fellow couples.
The upcoming series will welcome its first-ever lesbian couple, will span 30 episodes, and promises more drama than ever.
So, without further ado, let's meet the cast!
