Married at First Sight Season 19 Cast
The new season of Married at First Sight is finally here, and this time the experiment has landed deep in the heart of Texas Austin, to be exact. Season 19 feels different: more mature, more diverse, and (if we’re honest) a little more unpredictable than usual. It's moving to Peacock after years on Lifetime, bringing fresh life into a show that sometimes felt like it needed to shake off old habits. These ten singles, five men and five women, are walking down the aisle with strangers, hoping that science, psychology, and a sprinkle of madness might lead to love.
Let’s meet each brave soul.

Josh, 31, is a contractor with an unshakable calm. He grew up without much stability, and now he's determined to build the very thing he missed a steady home filled with love and laughter. You can tell he’s the kind who measures twice, cuts once (literally and emotionally).
Jalyn

Jalyn, 27, is a bright-eyed realtor who’s been through her share of romantic turbulence. After burning out on dating apps, she shifted gears to focus on her career. Now, with her life in solid shape, she’s ready to take this massive leap of faith. I kind of love that energy, hopeful but self-aware, the emotional version of taking your hands off the guardrails just to see if life catches you.
Pat

Pat, 59, is a Space Operations Consultant. Yep, literal space. He spent 30 years married before choosing a new orbit post-divorce. There’s a spark to him still that “I’ve seen it all, let’s see what’s next” vibe.
Rhonda

Rhonda, 63, might be my favorite. A Performance Marketing Executive and mother of four, she’s been through marriages, careers, dating apps, and probably more than one group chat debrief about bad dates. But instead of giving up, she signed up for Married at First Sight. That’s the kind of chaotic optimism life rewards, isn’t it?
Derrek

Derrek, 38, is a Chief Automator and entrepreneur in health and wellness. He’s the guy who probably drinks green juice at sunrise and journals about gratitude before meetings. Underneath all that structure, though, there’s a quiet longing not for excitement, but for peace.
Meghann

Meghann, 37, a realtor and devoted multitasker, has spent years balancing her family business and a growing career. After seven years single, she’s basically tired of being “the responsible one.” She’s not looking for fireworks, she’s looking for someone who understands emotional stillness. If these two sync up, they could surprise everyone.
Belynda

Belynda, 47, is an Esthetic Sales Consultant, and yes, she’s also the mother of Jalyn from earlier. A MAFS first. She’s healed from her own divorce and her parents’ split, carrying a kind of quiet determination.
Chad

Chad, 54, a Real Estate Executive, has three divorces behind him but don’t roll your eyes just yet. He’s learned from them (hopefully). He’s one of those men who believe deeply in partnership, even after heartbreak. His energy reads as humble and honestly, his willingness to show up again might be his most attractive quality.
Will

Will, 30, works as a consultant. He’s smart, successful, and self-aware enough to admit he’s bad at picking partners. That alone gives him an edge in this kind of experiment.
Brittney

Brittney, 29, is a Strategic HR Business Partner, which already tells you she likes to get things right. Her dream of being a wife is longstanding, but her relationships kept hitting the dreaded three-month slump. She actually applied for MAFS before and wasn’t matched so this second chance feels almost cinematic.
The cast of Married at First Sight Season 19 hits the perfect mix of youth and experience, dreamers and doers. With ages spanning from 27 to 63, it promises more layered dynamics than ever before. It’s funny each season claims to “do things differently,” but this one actually might. Maybe it’s the Austin air. Or maybe love at first sight still has a pulse after all.
Married at First Sight Season 19 premieres October 24, 2025, streaming exclusively on Peacock.
