With the nation gearing up for yet another exciting season of Married at First Sight – NW warns this season won’t be for the faint-hearted as it’s promising more scandals and juice than a lemonade stand!
Right here, NW reveals the top 10 most explosive moments that viewers can get excited about.
So grab your wine, cheese platter and popcorn guys because it’s about to go down!
Drug addictions
While most of the MAFS cast seem addicted to drama, Hayley Vernon was hooked on some much stronger stuff as a teenager.
Yep, the brunette bombshell began using meth at just 19. It took her 10 years to get clean and she tells NW, “Getting my life back on track was the hardest thing I’ve had to do.”
However, Hayley, now 32, isn’t the only newlywed with a bad habit.
NW hears a groom – who we can’t name for legal reasons – loves living the, ahem, high life. “He’s being portrayed as this straight-laced family man, but he dabbles in party drugs pretty much every weekend and loves to drink,” spills our show source.
“It’s one of the main reasons his ex broke up with him.”
Tash is a diva!
Looks like we’ve got a Mariah Carey on our hands!
NW is told Tash Herz acted like a “total diva” on set, leaving the crew extremely frustrated. “The requests she asked for were just ridiculous,” a source tells.
“She demanded better hotel stays and requested that only organic vegan produce be provided to her during filming. She won’t eat it if it’s not organic!”
Tash also asked for her own driver as she refused to share with the rest of the cast.

The truth about toothbrush-gate!
Sorry, Troy Delmege – your OTT brushing technique is officially no longer the grossest thing to involve a toothbrush on MAFS.
Shocking video footage has emerged of one groom – believed to be David Cannon – scrubbing faeces off a toilet bowl with his wife’s toothbrush!
Hayley is the bride in question and “found it completely vile”, shares a close pal.
“Like, who the hell does that?! He’s a disgusting human.”
Stacey has an affair
Stacey Hampton previously told NW she’s never cheated on a partner before. But there’s a first time for everything – we can reveal the mother-of-two is involved in one of this season’s numerous cheating scandals.
Yep, while Stacey is rumoured to be paired with single dad Michael Goonan, another groom catches her eye at the first dinner party.
What’s more, buzz is they hooked up for the first time on what was Stacey and Michael’s one-month anniversary!
“They had insane chemistry from the get-go, so no-one in production was surprised they hooked up,” tells our tattler. “But s**t really hits the fan when the rest of the cast finds out!”
MAFS girls’ wild night out
Hayley and fellow bride Poppy Jennings enjoyed a boozy night out in Sydney after filming the reunion – and a spy says that the pair were out of control!
“They didn’t finish until 4am!” spills the spy. “They would have easily polished off half a bottle of vodka and a few cocktails.”
A local bar manager adds Hayley and Poppy were all over each other and “made out in front of everyone … make-up was all over their faces and they’d spilt wine everywhere.”
Hope the hangover was worth it, girls!
Does Mishel swing both ways?
Turns out lesbian couple Tash and Amanda Micallef aren’t the only brides who like locking lips with the ladies.
Mishel Karen is set to reveal she falls in love “with an energy” and not a person’s gender.
According to our insider, Mishel definitely found a great energy during filming – it just wasn’t coming from the man the experts originally matched her with!
Everyone’s going rogue!
Despite MAFS staff asking them not to change their appearance post-production, a handful of the cast have already defied producers and debuted new looks.
Yep, Aleks Markovic is now blonde, while Cathy Evans and Natasha Spencer have added extensions – in Cathy’s case bleach blonde. Chris Nicholls has also gone blond and looks completely unrecognisable. What rebels!
Can the premiere just hurry up already!?
