Which ‘Married at First Sight’ Couples Have Babies? All the Pairs With Families
Married at First Sight doesn’t always work. With a premise that makes two strangers marry each other, it’s pretty much guaranteed that not all of the couples will decide to stay with each other at the end of the eight-week experiment. However, sometimes, the matchmaking experts do get it right, and the marriages last well after the show. Not only that, but they go on to start families, too.
Over the past 18 seasons, over a dozen babies have been born as a result of Married at First Sight matches, and several more are on the way. In the latest Season 19, participant Meghann revealed that she was pregnant, a franchise first. It got us thinking: Which couples from the MAFS universe have expanded their families? Find out below.
