Jamie-Doug to Jessica-Austin, here are 5 'Married at First Sight' couples who have got their happily ever after
'Married at First Sight' is quite a gamble for people looking for love and commitment. A lot of the couples were matched by the experts with the hope that they'll find their happily ever after but what they got instead was weeks of hurt, angst and worry. Over the years, cast members have gotten over fights and have cheated, and lied causing a lot of pain to their partners. But not all ended with such sadness. There have been successful marriages too. Let's take a look at some of them here.
Jamie Otis and Doug Hehner (Season 1)
They have been one of the oldest and seemingly the happiest of the lot. The couple recently welcomed their second child, a boy, in May 2020. They named him Hayes Douglas Hehner. The infant is little brother to Henley Grace, 3. From the looks of it, Jamie and Doug are happy in their bubble but their journey on 'Married at First Sight' was not exactly smooth-sailing. She was not attracted to him and after she had said yes to him, they realized there was no chemistry. But, they didn't give up on each other and chose to work on their marriage instead. Today, they have seen through it all.
Jessica Studer and Austin Hurd (Season 10)
They have been the darlings of the show. Right from day one, the couple shared a certain kind of love and affection that was needed to keep a marriage not just together but growing. Even though, they hit a few bumps on the road, especially when Austin stayed adamant on not saying the three magical words to Jessica, they were over it when he expressed his feelings on decision day, and said "I love you" to her.
Anthony D’Amico and Ashley Petta (Season 5)
Anthony and Ashley found love five years ago. They were complete strangers but that didn't affect the connection they built and nurtured on the show and beyond. The couple is now parents to a beautiful daughter, Mila Rose, and are expecting their second baby. "We've been struggling with this for a while, but I'm very happy to announce that we are pregnant again! This pregnancy goes to show that no path to pregnancy is the same," she told People a few months ago.
Jephte Pierre and Shawniece Jackson (Season 6)
Their's has been quite the rollercoaster. Shawniece was the one invested in their relationship and ready for commitment, Jephte struggled to open up to a stranger. They even slept in different beds.

Danielle Bergman and Bobby Dodd (Season 7)
