MAFS 2024: How this year's stars are cashing in on their newfound fame

It's now been two weeks since this year's Married At First Sight came to an end and many of the participants now look set to make a fortune following their rise to fame.

From podcasts and public appearances to subscription-based websites and merchandise, here's how the cast is planning on cashing in.

What the MAFS stars look set to do next

Personal appearances

In recent weeks, Tristan and Sara have been leading the personal appearances and have been booked to party and meet fans in clubs in both Darwin and Melbourne.

Tristan, who worked as an event manager at Manly Wharf Hotel prior to the show, is now taking bookings across Australia as a DJ too, with Lauren Dunn also making appearances that are due to continue in Darwin and Melbourne this week.
