The couples from season three of Married at First Sight Mzansi have come together again for a two-part reunion on Mzansi Magic. Actress Lerato Mvelase is the host.
The first episode aired on Sunday, October 4, on Mzansi Magic, channel 161, according to IOL. The second episode will air on Sunday, October 11.
The reunion comes after 13 weeks of weddings, relationship problems and hard choices. In the reunion, the couples face issues that were never settled. They also look back on their marriages and share where they stand months after filming ended.
The show’s experts join Mvelase for the talks one last time this season. They are Thabang Mashigo, Pastor Xolani Hlitana, Dr Mpume Zenda and Bakhe Dlamini.
The reunion follows the season’s final recommitment ceremony. At that ceremony, each couple had to decide whether to stay married after the experiment.
Prince and Esethu were the only couple who chose to recommit. In an emotional moment, Prince went down on one knee and proposed to Esethu again. She said yes.
Things ended differently for Lesiba and Matshediso. Lesiba was ready to recommit, but Matshediso chose to walk away.
Matshediso said their connection had changed once they moved out of the shared apartments. She also questioned whether the relationship could work outside the experiment.
Hlulani and Nompumelelo also decided not to recommit, so their marriage came to an end. The couple had faced problems with trust, honesty and emotional connection.
Obren and Laurinda were already apart before the ceremony. They ended their marriage earlier in the season.
With those choices made, the reunion lets the couples revisit the moments that shaped their relationships. It also gives them a chance to deal with tensions that are still there.
The talks cover what the couples went through during the experiment. They also cover what life has been like since the cameras stopped rolling, IOL reported.
The reunion aims to answer some of the questions that viewers have asked throughout the season.
Fans of the reality series will also get more content after the reunion. A new show called Married at First Sight Uncut will offer footage that has not been seen before.
Uncut will include behind the scenes moments and extra material from the couples’ journeys. It will premiere on Friday, October 30, at 8pm.
