EXCLUSIVE: Meet the cast of Married At First Sight 2024’s ‘most diverse’ season yet as Daily Mail Australia reveals sneak peek inside the WILD hens and bucks night

Daily Mail Australia can exclusively reveal the new cast of the upcoming season of Married At First Sight.

Filming for eleventh series of the show is well underway, and the brides and grooms were spotted taping their hens and bucks night in Sydney last week.

The upcoming cast will feature a diverse mix of participants of different ages and ethnicities.

While many of the women decided to keep things classy for the party, others dared to bare in more revealing ensembles.

Lauren Dunn wore a black Bec & Bridge cut-out maxi dress which showed off her ample cleavage, which she teamed up with a designer handbag and heels.

The Perth-based foodie, whose identity was revealed by Daily Mail Australia on Tuesday, was seen filming her arrival at Cruise Bar in Sydney’s CBD several times.

She wore a full face of makeup and had her blonde locks tied back behind her head.

Next to arrive was Gold Coast-based influencer Cassandra Allen.

The busty brunette, who boasts an impressive 10,200 Instagram followers, wore a dreamy ivory backless mini dress.

Friends describe Cass as ‘fun-loving’ and ‘beautiful on the inside and out’.

‘She has been telling her friends that she was going on MAFS for years,’ one source dished. ‘This is literally her dream becoming true’.

Melbourne-based beauty Tori Adams was also spotted on-set.

The glamorous business development manager showed off her collection of arm tattoos in a sorbet coloured midi dress.

Upon her arrival, Tori was seen making her way over to the bar where she picked up a glass of red wine.

Whilst her social media accounts have all been switched to private, her Instagram bio reads: ‘Quietly conquering the world’. 

Another blonde beauty made a stunning entrance in a maroon backless mini dress that accentuated her jaw-dropping physique 

She styled her cropped locks out and curled to perfection.

While another bride was all smiles as he made her grand arrival dressed in a purple halter dress.

With her curls cascading down her shoulders, she exuded charm and confidence, making quite the impression as she stepped into the spotlight. 

The bubbly beauty was fed instructions from a producers before she was seen making her way into the venue.

The 2024 cast will also feature heavily tattooed grooms, while others can be described as ‘silver foxes’. 

Among the grooms is a real estate agent, tour director, chief final officer and entertainment manager at a popular bar.

Ben Walters will appear on the show after being rejected from a starring role on The Bachelor.

A seasoned traveller, Ben, 40, boasts a following of 4,823 on TikTok and has garnered over 61,200 likes for his engaging content. 

Not one to be confined to a single platform, Ben’s YouTube travel videos have also amassed more than 24,350 views.

The brother of former MAFS groom Mitch Eynaud is also confirmed to star on the upcoming season of the Channel Nine dating show.

Jayden was pictured chatting to fellow grooms while attending the show’s bucks party. 

Perth-based Collins Christian will also appear on the show.

Collins comes from Indian and African heritage and is desperate to find Mrs. Right.

Understood to be in his early 30s, Collins appeared friendly as he flashed a rock on sign at photographers upon arrival for the bucks party.

According to friends, Collins is a ‘super funny, really nice guy’ who has been trying to get on MAFS for years. 

A Melbourne-based real estate agent is also set to find love on the experiment. 

Despite going to his best efforts to prevent being photographed, Tim Smith let his guard down once cameras started rolling.

‘Nine are leaving no stone unturned to make sure we deliver mind-blowing entertainment,’ a TV insider told Daily Mail Australia.

SAME-SEX COUPLE: 

This year’s series will also see two men will be getting ‘married’ for the first time since the passing of marriage equality laws in November 2017. 

The show’s past records with LGBTQ+ representation have been shaky, to say the least. 

One insider emphasised, ‘It’s important to get this right. We’re not just adding diversity for the sake of it, but to genuinely represent the many colours of love.’ 

Expert Mel Schilling has previously confessed to the experiment’s shortcomings in representing LGBTQ+ relationships.

‘For us, it was really important to find people who genuinely wanted to find love. We didn’t want to simply match people based on sexual orientation,’ she told Metro last year.

Schilling admitted that the Australian series ‘got that horribly wrong’ in the early seasons, suggesting that ‘great lessons’ could be gleaned from the experience.
