As a gamer who’s spent countless hours binge-watching reality TV shows, I can confidently say that “Married at First Sight” is one of the most intriguing and captivating series out there. The unique premise, the high stakes, and the rollercoaster of emotions make it a must-watch.
As a dedicated reality TV enthusiast, I’ve come to realize that to make an impact in this world, you need your unique selling point, as Gypsy Rose Lee would put it. For “Married at First Sight,” the secret sauce lies in its intriguing premise – the tantalizing prospect of finding love at first sight. The show pairs up five couples, marrying them on their very first encounter. The series documents their journey from the grand wedding to the eighth week, encompassing a honeymoon phase, navigating the highs and lows of early marriage as they adapt to their unions. Throughout this rollercoaster ride, they receive guidance from relationship experts and counselors who help them navigate through tough times. The season concludes with a decisive moment – decision day, where couples decide whether to stay together or part ways permanently.
This formula has proven successful for Lifetime (and other networks globally, who’ve adapted it from its Danish origin), as seen in Season 12. In Atlanta, Georgia, the show brought together five couples residing in the Deep South – one of whom was a divorcee – for the first time. Who managed to stay together and who called it quits? Here’s a brief rundown.
What happened in Married at First Sight Season 12?
In the debut of Season 12 on “Married at First Sight”, the following pairs were formed: Engineer Briana Myles with auto broker Vincent Morales, account coordinator Virginia Coombs with pilot Erik Lake, accountant Paige Banks with finance manager Chris Williams, flight attendant Clara Berghaus with project manager Ryan Oubre, and account executive Haley Harris with senior IT analyst Jacob Harter. Each of these five unions went ahead with the wedding ceremonies, although some relationships appeared to be more turbulent than others.
In summary: Chris and Paige’s romantic journey took a dramatic turn when Chris received news that his ex-fiancée Mercedes was pregnant with his child during their honeymoon. Despite four weeks of counseling, they found themselves unable to overcome their problems and eventually split, with Paige choosing to leave despite Chris’s reluctance leading to a divorce. Conversely, Clara and Ryan decided to stay married after grappling with intimacy issues. Haley and Jacob realized they were too dissimilar and opted for a divorce. Briana and Vincent managed to resolve their differences and remain together, as did Virginia and Erik, despite their significant age difference.
Who is still together after Married At First Sight Season 12?
Of all the couples who appeared on Season 12, only Briana Myles and Vincent Morales are still together after the filming ended. Engineer Myles and car broker Morales hit it off well when they were paired up, and their strong communication skills helped them to maintain a relationship that has survived until now. They decided to stay married during the “decision day,” a choice that has proved beneficial for them. As of now, they have been married for three years.
Together, this pair has expanded their social media presence, with Morales managing a YouTube channel in addition to Instagram influencing for the family. In 2023, they introduced their daughter, Aury Bella, to the world, and a year later, welcomed another child, their son Kai, into their family. Despite the breakups of all four other couples they were part of, Morales and Myles remain strong. They continue living their lives after these splits.
Where are the Married at First Season 12 castmates now?
In the past year of their marriage, Virginia and Erik decided to separate. A scant year later, Erik made a public announcement about his engagement to a woman named Logen. They tied the knot in 2023, and Erik remains active as a pilot, sharing stories from his married life, impending fatherhood, and aviation adventures on Instagram. The divorce between Virginia and Erik was far from amicable, with whispers about their alcohol consumption abounding. When Erik announced his engagement to Logen, Virginia posted a critical video, which ignited a heated and subsequently deleted public argument between the two on Virginia’s TikTok (as reported by InStyle Magazine). Since then, Virginia has continued to discuss her reality show experiences and share updates about her life on both TikTok and Instagram.
After Season 12 ended, Clara and Ryan parted ways approximately a month later. Later, Ryan alleged that Clara had been unwilling to attend family events and engage with his cultural background. In response, Clara posted on her own Instagram, acknowledging that she was still processing her experience on the reality show and disclosing that she’d been undergoing therapy for the past six months following their separation. As of now, Clara is in a relationship with a man named Max. Ryan, on the other hand, continues to share updates about his personal life and activities on his Instagram, while Clara does the same on hers.
After getting divorced from Chris, Paige went on to marry someone else and became a mom to a daughter named Nova. She regularly shares updates about her life on Instagram. Meanwhile, Chris primarily uses social media to discuss his business ventures and charitable works.
Apart from their divorce, Haley and Jacob went separate ways as well. Haley shares glimpses of her life on Instagram, whereas Jacob promotes himself as a dedicated dog father and fitness aficionado on his personal platform. Only time will reveal if they each encounter new romantic interests in the future.
