What will happen in Married at First Sight UK 2023?

Expert Paul C Brunson previously confirmed some changes were made to the format, teasing this series will be the most “explosive” ever.

Speaking to The Sun, for the first time all three experts will visit the couples’ apartments to offer relationship advice throughout the show.

“You’ll see in this series we make visits to their apartments, myself, Charlene and Mel,” Brunson told the publication.

“It has happened individually before – with that sex visit to Kwame and Kasia, but this will be the first series that you see all of us make independent visits to their apartments, and group visits to help them along.

“I think it’s really good because you get a chance to get to see us do what each of us is an expert in.”

What is Married at First Sight UK about?

Married at First Sight UK first hit screens in 2015, following participants from all over the UK who sign up to be “matched” with their ideal partner by a group of relationship experts.

The show sees the couples get “married” without ever having met each other until their wedding day, and follows them as they go through various challenges together.

Some of the challenges include living together, getting to meet each other’s family and friends and making the decision of whether they want to stay together or leave the experiment each week.
