‘Married at First Sight’ Season 12 Cast: Meet the Newlyweds

Will “I do” last forever? Married at First Sight returns to Atlanta for season 12 as five new couples meet their spouse at the altar. For the first time in MAFS history, one of the singles has already been divorced, which brings added pressure to the entire experiment.



Vincent and Briana
Briana, 28, is ready to hang up her single hat for good and meet her soulmate with whom she can build an empire. Meanwhile, Vincent, 27, already thought he had met The One but his ex was not ready for marriage. He hopes to find a dance partner for life.

Chris and Paige
Paige, 25, has a successful career, has owned a home since she was 22 and is ready for the next chapter: marriage. Chris, 27, was raised by pastors and strongly believes that the show has answered his prayers in finding his soulmate.

Clara and Ryan
Ryan, 29, hopes for a love like his parents have — they've been married for 30 years — and he wants to start a family. Clara, 27, strongly believes everything happens for a reason, hoping this will be her last relationship

Haley and Jacob
Jacob, 38, wants children and knows that the time is now. He also strongly believes that arranged marriages work. Haley, 28, is more than ready to find The One despite having trust issues in the past.

Virginia and Erik
Erik, 34, has been married once before and doesn't want to waste any more time. Virginia, 26, feels that her failed romances in the past have prepared her for a successful marriage.

MAFS: Matchmaking Special airs on Lifetime Wednesday, December 30, at 8 p.m. ET. MAFS: Kickoff Special airs on Wednesday, January 6, at 8 p.m. ET. The new season of Married at First Sight premieres on Wednesday, January 13, at 8 p.m. ET.

@Ruqibabe I am hopeful too. Three is a good number! Thanks for the link! The pictures in that link are interesting. I wonder at what point were they shot.

I'm not sure about Chris, he doesn't look happy in that IG pic, doesn't appear to have a ring on but it could be the angle. I'm not sure about Clara. She's the one who said she likes what she likes does what she wants and no one tells her otherwise, paraphrasing. But it could be foreshadowing too. You can see Erik and Vincent have what looks like a wedding band.

Haley and Jacob look like they are doing a photoshoot because they have too. Hope I'm wrong, I like him.


Vincent


Eric



This is hard to tell. When I enlarge it it gets fuzzy so I can't tell for sure if it's a ring on his hand or just part of his fingers. The picture could be flipped and therefore her ring hand is cut off.


Flipped

Married at First Sight star Virginia said they were still together right before their divorce documents hit. SD got hold of the documents one hour after they were available. Erik Lake doesn’t have to pay any money, nor does Virginia Coombs. They only used Erik’s lawyer, so she had to sign a waiver saying she knew it was his lawyer and that she should seek her own legal counsel.
