MAFS NZ is returning after a five year hiatus with a brand new cast and experts, but hopefully still the same amount of juicy drama.

Following the success of MAFS Australia and MAFS UK in the past year, bosses are hoping that the New Zealand version of the show will be just as exciting as their counterparts.

While MAFS NZ initially aired between 2017-2019, the show created 18 couples who they believed were the perfect match. Now with the season four starting, fans have been wondering if any of the MAFS NZ cast are still in a relationship.

Despite their rocky journey on MAFS NZ season three in 2019, Carmen Stimpson, 30, and Jimmy Hardy, 34, have put all the drama behind them and are still in a relationship.

The couple caused a stir on the show after Jimmy was accused of using derogatory slurs whilst filming. This led to an outcry amongst viewers, with many taking issue with the groom's words. However Carmen and Jimmy remained in a relationship and left the experiment as boyfriend and girlfriend.

Angel and Brett

MAFS NZ season one alum Angel Star-Heron, 33, and Brett Renall, 39, are another pairing who have weathered the media storm and remain together.

The couple quickly became fan-favourites, with many viewers praising them for their instant connection and fun approach to the show.

Following their time in the experiment, Angel and Brett have bought a farm and welcomed a daughter Vienna in 2022. The pair often share sweet moments with their child on Instagram as well as giving fans an insight into their family life.

Despite MAFS NZ creating 18 couples, Carmen and Jimmy and Angel and Brett are the only pairings who are still in a relationship.

This may be due to the various scandals which have plagued the show. During it's short run, MAFS NZ had to edit our one of the grooms due to domestic violence accusations made against him, as well as confronting a bride who was actually married whilst on taking part in the series.
