Which MAFS cast member will make the most from brand deals? Expert reveals $35k pay day for one

Brand deals are a natural part of reality TV’s circle of life, and after MAFS came to an end in Australia with episodes still yet to air here in the UK, there are a few cast members pegged to be pulling in the cash from brand deals.

Look, as much as we want to pretend that everyone on MAFS Australia is there to find love, just like every other reality TV show, there’s always a hidden hunger for fame and attention. Carina was on The Bachelor, and Teejay was on Big Brother, so we can’t pretend like all of these people are just unlucky in love.

I don’t think it’s anything to be ashamed about; after all, reality TV has the power to completely change your life – just look at the likes of Molly-Mae Hague and Maura Higgins! The first step is acquiring some of those hefty brand deals on Instagram, from teeth whitening strips to protein powder.

With that in mind, and following a statement from an expert, here are the MAFS Australia brides and grooms that are set to make the most through brand deals.

MAFS’ Jamie Marinos will make the most from brand deals

As one of the only MAFS season 12 cast members to have breached 100k followers on Instagram, Jamie Marinos is *in theory* set to make the most from brand deals. Specifically, an expert has theorised how she could bank $35,000 in Instagram brand deals over one year.

“I think Jamie will do well after the show because she is outspoken and has worn her heart on her sleeve,” she shares. However, she asserts that large social media followings don’t always translate to a successful career in the media industry,” Josie Gagliano, director of Sydney talent and PR agency RoJo Consulting, told Yahoo.

“Social media followers can build, but if you are not authentic and have a habit of being controversial or just plain nasty, nobody is buying what you are selling. Consumers do not forget and will vote with their money.”

The second most followed cast member is Jamie’s hubby Dave Hand, and with 122k followers and counting, he could be making $650 for a single sponsored post. Dave and his co-star Billy recently launched a joint TikTok account so that number could grow exponentially if they manage to increase its follower count.

Awhina Rutene is third in Instagram followers with 99k, meaning she might earn $450 per post, while Carina Mirabile could make $400 per post.

• Jamie Marinos
