These are the ages of the Married At First Sight UK cast

Married At First Sight UK is firmly back in our lives, having had a serious revamp and now features eight couples of a variety of ages and sexualities who will all marry strangers.

Following the Australian format of the show Married At First Sight UK is going to feature 21 episodes about the marriages of the eight couples as they get to know each other and their fellow contestants. After being matched by the experts, the couples will meet for the first time on their wedding day before heading off on a honeymoon and then moving in together. They will have weekly catchups with their fellow cast members to discuss their marriages, and if it’s anything like the Aussie version it’s sure to kick off.

Last night’s episode focused on the wedding of the series’ first ever gay couple – Daniel and Matt. Their wedding was beautiful and went off without a hitch, however much was made of the couple’s age gap, with comments from Daniel and Matt as well as their families. Daniel is 27 years old and Matt is 39 years old giving them a 12 year age gap. Things appear to be going well between them so hopefully they can prove age is just a number.

But about the other Married At First Sight UK cast members? How old are they and who is the youngest contestant?

These are the ages of the Married At First Sight UK cast:

Jordon

Finally someone older than 26! Personal trainer Jordon is 27 years old.

Nikita

Nikita has only been in one episode of the show so far and is easily the most memorable cast member. She’s 27 years old now but was 26 during the filming of the show.

Daniel

The age gap between Daniel and his husband Matt was a large part of last night’s episode as Daniel is 27 years old and therefore more than 10 years younger than Matt.

Alexis

Model Alexis hasn’t received much screen time yet but I’m sure we’ll be seeing the 28-year-old soon enough.

Ant

Ant is 28 years old and everyone was rushing to his defence on Twitter after Nikita didn’t appear too pleased with him as her husband.

Morag

Morag is 31 years old but has no plans to stop her wild partying days, let’s just hope Luke likes to party too.

Influencer and sports presenter Amy is 34 years old and has over 100,000 Instagram followers.

Luke

Morag’s husband Luke is 36 years old, giving the couple a five year age gap.

Personal trainer Marilyse is 37 years old and has two teenage sons, I hope I look as fit as her after two children.

Matt

Matt’s age was brought up in last night’s episode after he expressed his worry over his age gap with Daniel.

Matt is 39 years old making him 12 years older than his husband Daniel.
