It’s no secret that Married at First Sight (MAFS) has a track record of bringing together some of the most controversial characters in the country, but which of the couples from the 2024 experiment are still together?
Season 11’s brides and grooms dove headfirst into the intensity of fast-tracked relationships, laying their cards on the table, revealing their most vulnerable sides as they get real in front of Australia.
But with the ultimate goal of making their marriage a long-term success, which couples have stood the test of time, moving beyond cooked best man speeches, Confessions Week, the Retreat and each other?
We investigate which Married at First Sight 2024 couples are still together!
Jade and Ridge
Jade Pywell and Ridge Barredo quickly become fan favourites, and it looks like they are still going super strong!
However, things weren’t exactly smooth sailing at the start.
Back in February, So Dramatic claimed that Ridge cheated on Jade, however, he’s since shut that down in a private Facebook group.
“I’ve never cheated on Jade. We’ve had our ups and downs like in any relationship, but I’d never disrespect the future mother of my kids like that,” he wrote.
Ridge continued, “Maybe you guys should check your facts before believing every bit of rubbish that’s posted on the internet.”
Plus, not long after that, in March, Daily Mail Australia papped the lovebirds out and about at a Sydney beach.
Still, that same month, some eyebrows were raised when Jade spilled a bit of tea on The Pulse with Seany B & Emma G, as reported by Now To Love. She revealed a hiccup in their relationship, sharing that Ridge had messaged an ex, but assured everyone that nothing “physical” happened
“Ridge is such a nice person like, he’s so caring to everyone so sometimes he can do the wrong thing and message exes without realising that it would upset me,” Jade said.
“For me, I feel like it was a line that was crossed that I wasn’t happy with, just because I didn’t know about the interaction.”
Still, it seems like all is forgiven because these two are stronger than ever!
Ridge recently posted the cutest Instagram photo of himself with Jade and her daughter, captioned “Fam portraits 🧑🧑🧒🫶,” to which Jade replied with a flurry of love heart emojis.
But the romance rumours really ramped up on November 21 2024, when Ridge posted a photo of Jade rocking a ring on that finger with the cheeky caption “soft launch,” as reported by Rayo.
What’s more, in another adorable Instagram moment that had fans buzzing, Jade shared a video of the two kissing and cuddling, with Ridge commenting, “Love you gorgeous,” followed by a ring and love heart emoji. OMG!
So, are they engaged? Jade and Ridge are keeping us guessing for now, but one thing’s for sure, we love seeing them this happy!
Verdict: Yes, Jade and Ridge are very much still together… and potentially tying the knot for real!
Stephen and Michael
Michael and Stephen aren’t still together and left the experiment during the Commitment Ceremony that aired on March 10th.
Verdict: No, Michael and Stephen aren’t together.
Lucinda and Timothy
Lucinda and Timothy left the MAFS experiment at the final Commitment Ceremony on March 24th. While they’re not together, they still have a strong friendship.
Despite their obvious differences, Timothy and Lucinda quickly became MAFS fan favourites. Lucinda managed to help Timothy start to open up, but both sides hit a few speed bumps along the way in their relationship.
Chattr exclusively published photos of Timothy and Lucinda sinking beers together on a Sydney rooftop on Valentines Day in 2024. Plus, they were also snapped out and about and in great spirits. However, Timothy was also papped sharing lunch with a mystery woman shortly after.
In February, Instagram account MAFSGossip also shared leaked photos of the TV couple at a BBQ in Melbourne. Timothy and Lucinda look very close in the photos, with her cuddling into his shoulder.
Verdict: No, Lucinda and Timothy aren’t still together.
Sara and Tim
Are Tim and Sara still together?
After locking eyes at the altar, Sara and Tim were smitten with each other. However, things turned sour on the honeymoon when the couple had a bitter fight over, erm, Sara not liking the tequila served.
Things took a suss turn during Confessions Week when Sara refused to do a task which involved handing her phone over to Tim and letting him go through it.
And things never turned around for the couple. Tim was pictured out and about in Queensland with a brunette named Barbara in February.
The photos, which were published by Daily Mail Australia, show Tim and Barbara on a cute day out shopping for plants together. In one of the pics, Tim ironically looks over Barbara’s shoulder at her phone, and it another she plants a kiss on his cheek.
You can see those pics here.
So yeah, it’s safe to say the couple is completely done and definitely not together.
Verdict: Sara and Tim aren’t together.
Ellie and Ben
Well if one thing is for sure, it’s that Ellie Dix and Ben Walters didn’t work out, they left the show during the Commitment Ceremony that aired on March 3rd.
One of juiciest spoilers of the season involvef Ellie striking up a romantic connection with Jonothan, who was matched with Lauren.
Ellie was spotted cuddled up with fellow groom Jono McCullough, who was matched with Lauren Dunn, at her work party last December. After that tidbit was leaked, Daily Mail Australia shared some photos of a steamy make-out sesh in the ocean between Ellie and Jono.
Jono and Ellie are still happily together today, with her latest Instagram post revealing they’ve even bought a house together!
Furthermore, back in February, Ben updated his Facebook profile to one of him and his new girlfriend Aileen. At the time, Ellie came out swinging, saying that Ben was seeing the woman while filming the show.
Verdict: They’re absolutely not together.
Jayden and Eden
Eden Harper and Jayden Eynaud were one of the strongest couples on MAFS 2024 ever since meeting for the first time at the altar.
Part way through the seasons Jayden’s brother Mitch Eynaud pretty much gave away the fact that Eden and Jayden made it through the experiment together.
In October 2023, he shared a photo of himself on a couch cuddled up with a golden retriever. Not only does the dog look identical to Eden’s dog Cub, but guess what Mitch originally called the dog in the caption? Yup, Cub.
You can see the pics here!
However, while the couple did make it out of MAFS as a couple, they have since split.
On April 17, both Eden and Jayden shared statements on their respective Instagram accounts confirming their breakup.
“I’m saddened to share that toward the end of the show airing, our relationship came to an unexpected end. The ‘reality’ is, the person I chose didn’t choose me,” Eden wrote.
Meanwhile, Jayden penned: “Unfortunately, our relationship ended not long before the end of the experiment airing. As sad as it is, I’m so glad I got to go through this with such an amazing woman and a beautiful son .”
Verdict: No, Jayden and Eden aren’t together.
Jack and Tori
Jack Dunkley, 34, a personal trainer from the Gold Coast was matched with Tori Adams, 27, a business development manager from Victoria.
Upon requesting a partner more inclined to submission, Jack was instead presented with a strong and independent woman, raised by an equally strong and independent single mother!
With red flags galore, Jack was determined to be the dominant force in the relationship and while Tori was smitten with her new husband, at their wedding her best friend Leah felt his vibe was “off” — especially since all of his guests were clients from the gym!
Coupled with the fact that he gave off a certain Harrison Boon 2.0 je ne sais quoi and that he didn’t feel a spark with his new wife, we thought this relo was destined for the bin!
However, in a plot twist for the ages, it turns out that Jack and Tori are still together with the pair even spending Christmas 2023 together in Melbourne! Unbelievable!
Plus, Tori took to a private Instagram account on February 14th 2024 to share a photo of her holding some flowers, and the note referred to her as “wife”. So, unless Tori got married to a rando between when filming and now, it’s safe to say that the bunch she’s holding is from Jack.
Fast forward, and the couple looks more loved-up than ever, even teaming up on business ventures, including online coaching and fitness plans. As reported in The Tab, they’ve also invested in a swanky new gym, which appears to offer fitness support both online and in person.
As the publication also pointed out, the couple has moved in together on the Gold Coast, with Tori sharing on her Instagram that they managed to get the whole move done in just two weeks. Things seem to be going smoothly, with Tori finding a new job on the Goldy.
And the pièce de résistance? In an interview with Channel 9, Jack said he plans to propose to Tori shortly after their one-year anniversary, which just passed.
“I’ve told Tori that if we were to get married and have children, my time span on that would be about two years,” he said.
“So maybe in a year’s time, all things going well, I’d like to think I’d have a ring on it to be honest.”
Verdict: Yes, Jack and Tori are still together… and potentially getting hitched. Yay?
Lauren and Jonathan
Lauren and Jono aren’t still together. As mentioned above, Jono is still going strong with 2024 bride Ellie, who was paired with Ben in the experiment.
In a juicy twist of fate, however, one of Jono’s ex-girlfriends is getting TV-hitched on the upcoming 2025 season of MAFS.
That’s right! According to Daily Mail Australia, 2025 bride Lauren Hall, CEO of Mayfair Lane Gifts, and Jono first became friends nearly a decade ago but reconnected in 2022.
The publication reports that the pair dated for three months before parting ways in January 2023 on good terms, just before Jono auditioned for MAFS. Hm, small world!
Verdict: No, Lauren and Jono aren’t together.
