Married at First Sight Australia is one of the country’s most controversial mainstream reality shows. MAFS has been “cancelled” in the social sense more times than we can even count—but what’s with the rumour it has been cancelled for REAL? 

Season 12 isn’t even over yet and some viewers are already speculating it could be the hit franchise’s last. We can thank MAFS fan pages on Facebook for sparking concern for the fate of the show, with some predicting it could all be over after the Season 12 vows.

However, there is already plenty of evidence to suggest that this isn’t the case. Whether or not it *should* be cancelled? That is another story… but scroll on for everything we know.

Where Did the Rumours Come From?

Rumours MAFS is on the rocks seem to have sprouted from private Facebook groups designed specifically for fans to discuss the show. On several of these forums, some viewers vocalised their disappointment in this season’s contestants.

“Yes [it should be cancelled], or go back to what the show should actually be about. Couples looking for love rather than looking for fame,” one fan commented.

“No more actors or influencers,” agreed another.

“I wish they would just match up everyday people!”

Is MAFS Being Cancelled?​

No, Married at First Sight Australia isn’t getting axed, some fans just think it should be.

Channel Nine is already casting for MAFS Season 13, which will be filmed this year and premiere in 2026. 

Married At First Sight is back in 2026 and is currently on the search for participants of all ages and backgrounds who are genuinely committed to finding love,” the call-out explained.

Ah, we can’t wait for another season of drama, feuds and questionable matches. Bring it on!
