Forget dating apps, endless DMs, and those awkward talking stages that go nowhere! Married at First Sight Mzansi is coming back for Season 2 on Mzansi Magic and express to Showmax with the ultimate love hack: get matched by experts, meet at the altar, and say “I do” to a complete stranger.

In Season 1, available to stream on Showmax, it's immediately clear that isn't just a walk down the aisle! See couples Thami and Zithobile, Makhumo and Thabang, Khutso and Dee, and Boitshepo and Sebenzile go from “ngiyakuthanda” to “it’s complicated” in record time. Some find chemistry while others find character development. Expect deeper cultural connections, more meaningful conversations, and real guidance as couples figure out this fast-tracked life together.

The experts – marriage and relationship coach Linda Yende; conflict resolution expert Khanyi Yende; counsellor and author Thabang Mashego; gynaecologist and sexologist Dr Mpume Zenda; and marriage officiator and counsellor Pastor Xolani Hlitana – are available to offer the necessary guidance every step of the way.

So, what will Season 2 deliver? Deep, unbreakable bonds or dramatic breakups before breakfast? Sparks flying or fuses blowing out?
