After the success of seasons four and five over the summer, now E4 is airing the social experiment from 2019.

Where is Sam Ball from Married at First Sight Australia now?
It’s no surprise that Sam and Lizzie didn’t work out, and they split just a few weeks after leaving the show together.
At the time, Sam was accused of having an affair with their MAFS co-star Ines Basic, but he later said this was ‘set up’ by producers.
He also caused drama during filming when he controversially left Lizzie on their honeymoon to attend the funeral of his ex-girlfriend's mother.
After a rough time on the show, Sam described filming for MAFS as ‘a living hell’.

“Once the show happened and all the poor choices on my form... Everything came crumbling down,” he told WHO back in June.
He continued: “My family got into my head and said, ‘You need to see someone.’
“That's when he got professional help.
“I was having days I couldn’t get up and train. I’ve never been in that position where I literally couldn’t function – I just couldn’t figure out how.”
Does Married at First Sight Australia’s Sam have a girlfriend?
It is unknown whether Sam is currently single, but he hasn’t shared any couples photos on his social media pages.
