MAFS 2023: Carolina Santos ranks the season 10 couples

See what former Married At First Sight participants think of the 2023 pairs.

There are only a few weeks left in this year’s season of Married At First Sight and while some couples have started making plans for life outside of the experiment, others are falling apart just ahead of the finish line.

Each week Yahoo Lifestyle will speak with a former participant of the Channel Nine reality show to give us their power rankings of the 2023 couples and reveal who they think will or won’t make it to the end of the experiment.

WEEK 7

She was known for her sassy and often savage remarks on season nine of MAFS, which means none of the 2023 participants is safe from Carolina Santos’ brutal commentary.

1. Melinda and Layton - Carolina recommends these two get some “proper counselling” and work on their communication so they can become “an amazing couple”.

2. Tahnee and Ollie - While she says they are “the cutest couple this season”, Carolina doesn’t rank them first because “it’s been a little bit boring to watch them” without any drama.

3. Lyndall and Cameron - Based on the recent dinner party, Carolina admits it’s hard to see this pair making their relationship work in the outside world.

5. Alyssa and Duncan - Again, Jack doesn't think he's “seen enough of their relationship as a whole”.

6. Tayla and Hugo - “They started so strong... not really.”

12. Caitlin and Shannon

WEEK 3

One of the show's most outspoken brides Jessika Power didn't hold back with her thoughts on the new participants.

1. Lyndall and Cameron - Jessika says this couple is her “top pick” to make it all the way to the end of the experiment because of their obvious chemistry.

2. Tahnee and Ollie - She’s hopeful these two will be the next ‘Cam and Jules’ because “they seem really sweet”.

3. Claire and Jesse - “They seem playful and fun and I think they’re actually genuinely putting effort into the experiment and understanding that it's not going to be easy.”

4. Melinda and Layton - Jessika believes this couple has “really good communication” and they seem open to getting to know one another.

5. Alyssa and Duncan - Jessika predicts something might happen to this couple later on because we’re not seeing too much of them just yet.

6. Janelle and Adam - While she would love for these two to work, especially because she knows Janelle from when she lived in Perth, Jessika thinks they’re “total opposites”.

7. Sandy and Dan - Thanks to online spoilers, Jessika is fairly certain this couple won’t last.

8. Bronte and Harrison - Jessika is doubtful that either one of these participants went on the show to find love, adding that Harrison “has no respect for Bronte or the experiment”.

9. Melissa and Josh

10. Caitlin and Shannon

WEEK 2

Al Perkins, the season nine groom known for his memorable dinner party shoey, shared his "controversial" opinions on the new couples.

1. Tahnee and Ollie - In the number one spot, Al thinks these two are "very cute together".

2. Claire and Jesse - Al is convinced that the connection these two had on their wedding day will see them through because "they're made for each other".

3. Lyndall and Cameron - He’s unsure whether the lifestyles of these two match up with Cameron "living in a tent out in the country".

4. Bronte and Harrison - Al thinks this couple has a chance to turn things around because "fighting makes people stronger".

5. Alyssa and Duncan - Al doesn’t know much about this pair but doesn’t think they’ll make it to the end of the experiment.

6. Melissa and Josh - He thinks these two are suited for each other because of their similar age but predicts they’ll "probably just leave soon".

7. Melinda and Layton - "I don’t know anything about them so that’s why I chose them."

8. Janelle and Adam - Al’s got "a gut feeling" that these two aren’t suited for each other.

9. Caitlin and Shannon - Al thinks Caitlin should "jump ship" after Shannon told her he's still in love with his ex.

10. Sandy and Dan - Although they're in the lowest position due to spoilers about Dan’s new girlfriend, Al hopes these two last.
