Oh, blimey guv’nor! As a die-hard fan of this reality TV show, it’s simply astounding to see the earning potential these stars have post-Married At First Sight! I never thought I’d be so envious of a bunch of Aussies and Kiwis, but here we are!


It’s clear as day that participants from the popular reality show, Married At First Sight, often find themselves with successful influencer careers following their appearances on the show.

The financial earnings that the 2024 stars of the ongoing Channel Nine series are expected to make have now been disclosed.

The team of entertainment analysts at New Zealand’s Casino has analyzed the data to disclose an estimate of the earnings per cast member from Season 11, due to their follower count and interaction levels on social media platforms.

It’s no surprise that Lucinda Light found herself leading the pack in terms of potential income, given her impressive earning power.

During her stint on the program, the internet phenomenon significantly expanded her social fanbase. Now, she boasts an impressive 645,000 fans on Instagram and an additional 150,000 followers on TikTok.

Alongside her verbal performance tours in the UK and Australia, Lucinda has the capability to earn approximately $221,374 yearly through sponsorships on social media platforms.

Eden Harper, with a massive following of 242,000 on Instagram and another 102,000 on TikTok, ranked as the runner-up, having an estimated annual income potential of around $96,381.

Eden has been quite active on social platforms, teaming up with companies like Esmi Skin, Double Online, Pretty Little Thing, and Vibe Soda.

Following not far behind in the third position is Lauren Dunn, much like Eden, who’s already established partnerships with beauty brand MCo, fashion label Rebecca Vallance, and clothing company Dissh.

Having a social media presence with approximately 251,000 followers on Instagram and 101,000 on TikTok might open the door for potential earnings of around $93,037.

Among the grooms, Timothy Smith (Lucinda’s former partner on TV) stands out with a projected income of $88,022, falling slightly below the country’s average salary of $98,000.

This figure was based on Timothy’s 225,000 Instagram and 119,000 TikTok followers.

From the analyzed data, it was found that stars who were labeled as inauthentic on the show often have fewer profitable social media prospects following the final episode.

The new data comes after Influencer Marketing Hub collated similar figures around the 2023 cast.

Approximately, it was projected that Melinda Willis, with her then-followers of about 557,000 on Instagram (currently 524,000), might be able to earn as much as $2,700 for a single sponsored post.

403,000 people (now 456,000) followed Evelyn Ellis on her wedding day, making her the second-most popular bride for sponsorship opportunities. This means she could potentially negotiate fees of up to $1,950 with brands interested in collaborating with her.

In the recent season of MAFS, Evelyn’s partner Duncan James ranked as the third most popular cast member, boasting a following of 317,000 people (currently 351,000).

This means he can charge brands an estimated $1,550 for each sponsored post.
