Will there be a Married at First Sight UK 2024 reunion?

Channel 4 has remained tight-lipped about the end date of Married at First Sight UK 2024, and if there will be a reunion.

However, we expect the show to follow a similar pattern to last year. In 2023, MAFS UK ran for 36 episodes, making it the longest season in the UK so far.

Last year, the show aired from 18th September to 6th November. Just like this season, it featured dramatic dinner parties, commitment ceremonies, and new additions to the cast, along with a two-part reunion special.

Fingers crossed Channel 4 follows the same format this year!

As this season began on 16th September, it’s rumoured that the final episode will drop around 12th November, with the reunion special airing shortly after.

Yes, this means we may have just under three weeks of drama left!
