Controversial couplings and faux-mances: This is where your MAFS 2025 faves are now.

This year's season of Married at First Sight Australia delivered loads of drama and twists, as the class of '25 had to navigate the pressures of instant marriage.

From shock exits, couple-swapping, explosive dinner parties and one genuine love match (yep… just one!), the MAFS experiment pushed its participants to their limits.

As the dust has now settled and the cameras have stopped rolling, the cast has moved into a different phase — some forging new relationships, others embracing single life, and many launching careers as influencers.

These MAFS 2025 faves are making headlines for where life has taken them since the show.

Carina Mirabile.

Carina is no longer with her on-screen husband Paul, having ended things at the Final Vows.

She has returned to her digital marketing career and is active as a fashion influencer and This Is Chaos podcast host. On platforms like TikTok and Instagram, she shares updates about her life, her style and business ventures.

At the moment, Carina is spending time in the US in Oklahoma City, documenting her Independence Day festivities for her social media audience.

And she's not alone. A TikTok has sparked curiosity amongst fans for her "cowboy" companion.

On TikTok, Carina shared content featuring the famous Love Island entrance audio, "a hot new bombshell enters the Villa", before showing off a new gentleman.

Her mystery man made multiple appearances across her content, including clips of Carina tasting American beverages and footage of him positioned near a vehicle, with the text "POV you manifested an American cowboy".

During a video exploring linguistic differences between Australia and America, her cowboy man recounted their initial encounter.

"I was doing my usual bar moseying around, very nonchalantly. We were at Cowboys in Oklahoma City... I walked by and suddenly there was a group of what looked like a Bachelorette party, they surrounded me," he recalled.

"Anyway, he was there with his friend and we started chatting because look at him!" Carina interjected.

Paul Antoine.

After his split from Carina at Final Vows, Paul left Perth and relocated to Sydney's eastern suburbs. He has shifted away from his previous role as a wellness advisor.

Despite past controversies, Paul maintains a presence on social media and is working to rebuild his public image after fans turned on him on MAFS. These days, his social media has been taken over by model shots and fashion shoots for menswear campaigns.

Jacqui continues to work as a consultant and has become a recognisable face at public events and on social media.

The couple got engaged in April 2025 at a MAFS viewing party in Sydney, where Clint proposed with a custom 5.08-carat diamond ring.

Jacqui experienced legal troubles after the show, stemming from her tumultuous on-screen relationship with Ryan Donnelly, who applied for a personal violence order (PVO) against her after their split, though Jacqui said an AVO was not served.

Jacqui filed a police report against Ryan for sharing private messages online and has been unable to work as a lawyer since the show aired, citing mental distress and reputational damage from her portrayal.

Dave Hand.

After his split with Jamie Marinos, Dave took a trip to Bali, where he shared photos and updates on his social media, living his best vacation life.

He has since embraced the world of celebrity endorsements, offering personalised Cameos for fans.

Most recently, Dave confirmed he will make a cameo appearance on the 2025 season of The Block.

Based on his socials, he appears to be single and shares his life and dog on Instagram and TikTok.

Jamie Marinos.

There were rumours that Jamie had started a new relationship with fellow cast member Eliot Donovan. However, she has since denied their relationship is anything more than friendly.

Aside from her confusing personal life, Jamie has found huge success from MAFS, securing several lucrative brand deals and making multiple podcast appearances since filming wrapped.

Eliot Donovan.

Eliot has spent the past few months dodging claims he's in a relationship with Jamie Marinos. For the record, he's said they're just friends.

That said, they still pop up on each other's socials every other day.

These days, Eliot spends most of his time working on social media content for Instagram and TikTok, alongside some other MAFS faves.

Billy Belcher.

Billy continues his work as a plasterer and is active on Instagram. After his marriage ended, Billy post about his friendship with Dave, but most of the coverage has surrounded his relationship with fellow cast member Awhina Rutene.

The twosome share their travel adventures and milestones together. Billy and Awhina shared a joint Instagram post in June which sent fans into a spin.

"I'll keep this one," they posted, which pretty much seemed to confirm they were dating.

Awhina Rutene.

Awhina became a breakout star on the show. Awhina is active as an influencer, and regularly posts about her life, motherhood and relationship with Billy.

They were then photographed in a not-at-all-planned photo spread where they were seen holding hands. While many thought this was a blossoming new romance as a result, it seems it may have just been a bit of a faux-mance.

Because, most recently, they have said they're just friends. Umm…. okay? Make it make sense!
