This year’s Married At First Sight was pretty intense. From Shannon telling Caitlin he didn’t find her attractive to Cameron throwing his Final Vows on the ground and storming off set, it’s understandable why fans – us included – expected the finale to be explosive.
And yet… In our humble opinion, it fell a bit flat. Why? Well, viewers never got to see Harrison and Bronte – arguably, the MAFS couple at the centre of almost every single drama this season – on the couch getting grilled by the experts.

We also never got to see Janelle & Adam, Caitlin & Shannon, Melissa & Josh, Evelyn & Rupert and Tayla & Hugo tackle the couch and the experts…
Thankfully, one of the brides from this season has spilled the tea and shared what got cut from the Married At First Sight finale.
The bride, who chose to remain anonymous, spoke to The Daily Mail and said at one point during filming, multiple contestants were “screaming at each other” and fighting over who got more air time.
The anonymous bride also claimed that when Melissa and Josh were on the couch, Melissa got extremely upset watching her ‘edit’ and left the MAFS finale set.
“Melissa was a mess. She was crying and inconsolable. Jesse was there with her trying to calm her down until a producer walked over to try and talk to her. Melissa was having none of it and didn’t want a bar of production, she ripped off her microphone and announced she was leaving,” the bride said.
Plus, apparently, Harrison and Bronte spent the longest time on the couch but it was completely edited out of the finale because it “didn’t match the narrative presented on the show.”

This bride isn’t the only contestant speaking out about the finale. A Facebook account that seems to belong to MAFS groom Jesse posted in the private group ‘Married At First Sight UNCENSORED’ and said:
“No idea why they didn’t air Bronte and Haz. You didn’t see Shannon and Caitlin (which was brutal) or Josh and Mel either.”
Jesse also revealed that “the 3 remaining couples Janelle and Adam, Rupert and Ev, Tayla and Hugo weren’t filmed” on the couch chatting to the experts.
The marriage celebrant did say that he was “pleased” with the Married At First Sight finale and, aside from the insinuation that he and Claire were going to reconnect, it was “pretty accurate.”
“The whole ‘she’s coming to Perth’ thing: Claire said she’s coming to Perth for the UFC and for Lyndall’s birthday party – not because she wanted to continue romantically exploring with me hahaha [sic]. Unsurprisingly, she didn’t end up coming to the above anyway,” Jesse clarified in his post.
