“Married at First Sight” is returning to Lifetime for Season 11 next month.
The 10 single hopefuls from New Orleans were set up by matchmakers Dr. Viviana Coles, Dr. Pepper Schwartz and pastor Calvin Roberson and will meet for the first time when they tie the knot.
There will also be a pre-premiere special to find out how the matchmakers decided the couples.
3 'MARRIED AT FIRST SIGHT' COUPLES SPLITTING UP
'‘MAFS’' typically follows couples from marriage to their honeymoon to moving in together, and finally when they announce their decision to either stay married or get divorced. This season, however, has an interesting twist.
Season 11 production started before lockdown measures were placed due to the coronavirus. Instead of halting filming, the couples continued to quarantine together and viewers will have an inside look at how that affected their relationships.
Without further ado, here are the couples who said “I do”:
Amelia and Bennett

Amelia, 29, is no stranger to an arranged marriage as that is how her grandparents met. The Virginia native is following in the footsteps of her doctor mother as she works to complete her medical residency. Bennett, 28, on the other hand, is on a creative path as the artistic director of a theater company. The New Jersey-born suitor has been dating for four years with no long-term luck.
