Hold on, four of the MAFS Australia 2025 cast are actually actors?!

Wow, it turns out that loads of the MAFS Australia 2025 cast actually had sneaky acting side hustles before they went on the show. Like, two of them were in Neighbours. Of course, being an actor doesn’t mean that someone is less likely to be genuine on the show. But it might explain why these cast members were willing to be filmed for months on end. Here are the four MAFS Australia 2025 cast members who are actually actors.

Carina

She’s been attempting to get famous long before MAFS. Carina acted in the Australian miniseries The Claremont Murders, and in a music video for Sidhu Bhammeala’s 2021 song Boss.

Carina has also been on reality TV shows many times before. She was an extra on the Kardashian spin-off show Dash Dolls, and an MTV show called Love & Hip Hop. Carina also showed presenters around her family’s tool shop on an Australian property renovation show.

His day job as an electrician. But Jeff actually had an acting career before his time on MAFS Australia. He was in six episodes of a miniseries called The Warriors in 2017. Jeff also appeared in three films called Undertow, The Whistleblower and A Promise Carved in Flesh. He also played a police officer called Kurt Bridges in Neighbours between 2017 and 2021.

On MAFS Australia, Ryan was described as a project manager. But he’s also attempted to launch an acting career. He’s been in Neighbours, NCIS: Sydney and Nicole Kidman’s TV show The Last Anniversary. In February, he was spotted on the streets of Sydney filming for a Hollywood movie that Dylan O’Brien is in.

Jacqui has claimed throughout many, many TikTok videos that she raised concerns about his career because of his showbiz ambitions, not because of his salary as a project manager.

Veronica

Veronica has been accused of going on MAFS Australia to boost her acting career. She starred in the 2023 film Streets of Colour.

She also has roles in the Australian movie Companion, a short film called Fuse, and a comedy web series called RIFK.

Last year, Veronica starred as the love interest in the music video for Baby Blue Bathing Suit – a tie-in song by Stephen Sanchez for a Disney documentary about The Beach Boys. Really. I had no idea Veronica could dance.
