Married At First Sight fans point out shocking difference between the UK and AU versions of the franchise

Married At First Sight fans have pointed out the stark difference between the brides on the Australian and UK versions of the popular reality show. 

Relationship expert Melanie Brisbane-Schilling, who stars in both versions of the dating franchise, shared the bride line-up for the new UK series to Instagram on Monday.

However, viewers were quick to point out in the comment section that the 2024 UK brides appear to be much more 'relatable' compared to the Down Under cast. 

'So beautiful and so glad to see more relatable "normal" women this series,' one person wrote.

'Finally some normal looking women! Exciting,' another added, as someone else commented, 'Normal looking women,' alongside red love heart emojis. 

A fourth said: 'Amazing to see lots of naturally beautiful brides so much more relatable. Can't wait to watch!'

'Yay! So nice to see more diverse body shapes etc this year! All such beautiful brides,' yet another wrote.

Eight brides are set to arrive on screen in the upcoming UK season in the hopes of finding the loves of their lives as they meet their spouses at the altars. 

The grooms have also been revealed ahead of the show's hotly-anticipated return and includes one female groom as the matchmakers get hard at work once again.

While the release date is yet to be confirmed, the fourth season of MAFS UK is set to return to E4 soon with experts Mel, Paul C. Brunson and Charlene Douglas. 

Making up the cast for the new instalment of the show are a beauty pageant queen and the show's first deaf contestant.

Meanwhile, the 2025 season of MAFS Australia is already set to be more explosive than ever.

Daily Mail Australia revealed that the new batch of intruders have been brought in to filming for next year's series with one strict condition - to bring the drama.

In a bid to introduce maximum chaos to the experiment, producers are introducing several new participants to the experiment after three couples abruptly quit.

Each has been handpicked for their potential to cause a stir among the existing couples. 

Daily Mail Australia recently revealed newly-single golfer Clint Rice is set to shake up the 2025 series when he walks down the aisle as an intruder groom. 

Hailing from Launceston, Tasmania, Clint recently ended his long-term relationship, paving the way for his appearance on the hit reality show.

Friends of the golfer describe him as 'super chill and down to earth,' with a reputation for being well-spoken and always up for a good time.

His easy-going nature, combined with a penchant for mischief, will no doubt bring some unexpected twists to the 2025 series, with filming already well underway.

Joining newbie Clint as fellow intruders to spice things up are couple Teejay Halkias and Beth Kelly, who have already tied the knot in scenes filmed on Tuesday.

The new arrivals comes after casting chaos which saw three couples shockingly quit very early on in the filming process. 

Season 12, currently being filmed in Sydney, has already lost six participants within the first two weeks of filming, and the intruders have been warned to ride it out.
