What are the MAFS 2026 participants doing now? - The Australian Women's Weekly

While their search for love on reality TV has come to an end, we doubt it’s the last we’ll see the 2026 participants of Married At First Sight Australia. Most of them have been very vocal in interviews, but they’ll finally regain access to their social media accounts. This means more insights into what we didn’t see this season, and most likely, participants pursuing something outside of the classic 9 to 5.  Below, we figure out what some of the participants of MAFS 2026 are doing now.  Gia Fleur  Gia has both hard launched her relationship with Love Triangle’s Alan Wallace and signed with one of Australia’s top celebrity talent agents.  (Credit: Instagram) The 36-year-old signed with star manager Max Markson, who has previously represented Pamela Anderson and other A-listers. “I look forward to this, seeing where it goes and what we do. I’m really excited, so stay tuned, will see you soon,” she revealed on social media.  As for her new boyfriend, in April, Gia revealed they had been dating for three months. “I got the love story of my dreams,” she wrote.   Chris Robinson When Chris was matched with Sam, we discovered he was about to become a father, expecting two children via surrogacy.  In February, Chris revealed his daughter, who he shares with friends, had arrived.  (Credit: Instagram) “I love her so much and I get really emotional when I talk about her – it’s happening right now, I’ll try to contain it – I just love her so much, she’s got me wrapped around her little finger. It’s the best,” he said on Today Extra.  He is still awaiting the arrival of his other child.   Julia Vogl While her relationship with Grayson didn’t pan out as expected, Julia has found love.

Speaking to New Idea, the 2026 bride revealed she was dating Australia’s Ninja Warriors star Nathan Ryles. “Our connection is something I’ve never experienced before. He was unexpected; we didn’t plan for this to happen, you know, it just happened so naturally,” she told the publication. “I thought that I knew what love was, and I thought that I had felt love before, but this is a whole other feeling. I believe he’s my soulmate, like he is my person, and I have found my person; he makes me so happy.” View this post on Instagram Luke Fourniotis Although Luke has relatively stayed out of the spotlight since leaving MAFS, he deserves an honourable mention after stealing so many hearts. Fans were even suggesting Luke become the next Bachelor! After a short time in the city for MAFS, Luke is back to the quite farm life, cooking wholesome meals and playing with the animals.
