Married At First Sight Season 18 Promo Reveals Dr. Pia Making Major Announcement About Disastrous Scandal

Married At First Sight season 18’s first promo has finally dropped, and Dr. Pia Holec is teasing the unprecedented drama that will certainly take over the conversation about the season in the teaser trailer. With a whole new cast coming into the experience, Married At First Sight season 18 has the potential to be one of the most exciting seasons of the series to date. While other seasons of MAFS have had some unprecedented moments, like MAFS season 17’s shocking runaway bride, the new season of the series will feature something that could alter the course of the show’s history.

In the teaser (via Page Six), Dr. Pia explains that “Infidelity between two couples is unprecedented in ‘Married at First Sight’ history,” before the rest of the teaser draws out the drama between two of the couples in the newest season. While it’s not clear which couples have infidelity between them, several of the MAFS season 18 cast members are heard commenting on the situation in the teaser. One bride, Michelle, is heard explaining “married people don’t sext other women,” while Karla, another bride, calls the entire situation “dirty.” A third bride, Emem, is seen hugging another man on screen.

MAFS season 18 is unlike viewers have ever seen

What Infidelity Scandal Means For MAFS Season 18

Although Married At First Sight season 18 doesn’t officially premiere until Wednesday, October 2 on Lifetime, things are already changing for the long-running show. With so much drama teased ahead of time, there’s a lot to unpack. The Married At First Sight season 18 cast has been revealed along with their couplings, but now that the scandal of the season seems to have been teased, it’s clear MAFS season 18 is unlike viewers have ever seen. As two of the cast members matched with other people choose to ignore the experiment to forge a relationship, things are bound to change.

Although there’s never been a wife-swap in Married At First Sight history, the series has had cast members who haven’t been interested in their match and sought outside relationships on the show. This, however, is something different as two of the MAFS couples appear to be broken up to create a whole new couple. While it’s unclear if the new pair will be documented as a couple of their own on MAFS season 18, or if they’ll simply leave the show together, there are possibilities for endless drama on Married At First Sight season 18 as the show moves ahead.

Our Take On MAFS Season 18’s Infidelity Scandal

While Married At First Sight season 18 is going to change the game for the series, it could also be the refresh that viewers have been looking for from the long-running show. MAFS has felt stale in its last several seasons, but with some unprecedented drama coming into the mix, it could be the shift that the series has needed. While the emotions of the Married At First Sight season 18 cast members are going to be all over the place, seeing the fallout of a cheating scandal mixed with a wife-swap will be riveting for longtime MAFS viewers.
