Eagle eyed fans have noticed a strange detail in the newly-released trailer for Married At First Sight’s 2023 season.
The two-minute video, which was released last Saturday, offers a glimpse at the experiment’s glamorous participants as well as the drama that’s set to unfold on the show.
However, it has now been confirmed that two ‘cast members’ depicted in the clip are actually paid actors rather than participants.

Last year, X Factor Australia’s Matt and Jess Price, who are a married couple, starred together in a trailer for the social experiment despite not being cast on the show.

Matt later told Yahoo Lifestyle that contestants felt ‘threatened’ after mistaking them for intruders, giving them ‘daggers’ as they rocked up to film the promo.
It comes as Aussie fans count down until the next instalment of Married At First Sight hits screens next month.
If the teaser is anything to go by, next year’s experiment will feature even more tears and drama than ever before.
