An all-stars version of Married at First Sight has been confirmed at Channel 4<\/a>, where contestants will have another shot at walking down the aisle and finding true love. Second Marriage at First Sight will see four former faces from MAFS UK and four contestants from MAFS Australia get married without ever having met before.<\/p>\n

Taking place over 24 episodes, they will return to the experiment with “open hearts to finding love again and open minds to consider uprooting their entire lives to the other side of the world”.<\/p>\n

Why? Because each of the UK participants will be matched with one of those from down under.<\/p>\n

A synopsis teases: “The experiment begins again in the UK; each couple will navigate cultural clashes and old wounds before they head to Australia to meet friends and family on the other side of the world and face the ultimate decision: who will consider uprooting their life for love?<\/p>\n

“Will the Brits tempt their partners to trade beach life for Blighty, or will love pull them towards a fresh start under sunnier skies? For these second-timers, there’s more at stake than ever before.”<\/p>\n

The synopsis continues: “These brides and grooms aren’t just risking their hearts again, they’re risking everything, their friendships, careers, and their homes, as one half of each couple takes a gamble on the possibility of a new life and new love on the other side of the world.”<\/p>\n

Steve Handley, Channel 4\u2019s head of reality entertainment, said in a statement: “These eight well-loved MAFS singles didn’t find lasting love the first time, but they haven’t given up \u2013 and neither have we.<\/p>\n

“Everyone deserves a second chance at love, and this time they’re saying ‘I do’ to a stranger on the other side of the world, risking absolutely everything for another shot at getting it right. I think it will be our greatest love story yet.”<\/p>\n
