Married at First Sight is currently in its fourteenth season, and no date nor the couples for season 15 have been revealed following the July 2021 auditions.
Overview
Married at First Sight is one of the most popular dating reality shows currently on television. The Lifetime channel reality show is currently airing its fourteenth season, which has been filled with drama, but fans are now calling for the next season to have less drama and more love.
Season 15 details, namely, the couples and release date of Married at First Sight are still being kept under wraps. This is as the current season is still airing.
However, what is known is that the show has concluded the shooting of the next season, which will take place in San Diego, and casting for season 16 is currently underway.
What is Married at First Sight?
Married at First Sight is the United States series that first premiered on Lifetime in 2014. The original premise of the show was developed by Denmark producer and writer, Lotte Offenberg Bergqvist.
The premise of the show is, “A reality show that follows singles yearning for a life-long partnership as they agree to a provocative proposal: getting legally married to a stranger the moment they first meet.”
However, besides the American spin-offs like 2021’s Married at First Sight: Happily Ever After? in recent years the show has seen other international spin-offs.
Married at First Sight: Season 15 couples
Currently, Lifetime channel is airing the fourteenth season of the American show. The new season began airing in January 2022 and the season, which is currently on its eleventh episode, has been slammed by viewers.
This is because fans believe that the show is steering away from its initial premise more and more with each new season.
Viewers claim that the current cast is filled with too many villains, and not couples – the wives specifically – who are putting in the work to see their relationships survive the dating experiment.
It might be for this reason that fans are already looking to the season 15 cast to save the show and return it to its original premise, which was to help singles find love through the unique dating experiment.
However, though the fans may be eager, they will have to wait a bit longer for the reveal of the Married at First Sight’s season 15 couples, as they have not been revealed yet, since season 14 is still underway.
Married at First Sight’s season 15 location revealed
What has been revealed is the season’s filming location. Married at First Sight season 14 was shot in Boston. Every season, the show travels to a different part of the country pairing strangers who are looking for love, and hopefully marriage.
According to reports, season 15 was filmed in San Diego in July 2021, when Kinetic Content Casting, the casting agency behind the couples on the show shared the open call audition post for season 15.
The hopefuls that were cast were allegedly required to be free between November 2021 and February 2022 to film the season, which suggests that this was the timeframe for shooting season 15.
If that is the case, it is safe to assume that the production of the season is complete.
Married at First Sight season 15’s release date
Considering that Lifetime is currently airing season 14 of Married at First Sight, it is no surprise that the channel has not shared a release date for season 15.
However, if we were to speculate a potential release date for the new season, we would project a second half of the year release for season 15, since seasons 12 and 13 followed the same schedule.
In January 2021, season 12 aired until April 2021, and in July 2021, season 13 began airing. Furthermore, this is supported by the fact that the show is already holding auditions for season 16.
Married at First Sight season 16 location revealed
As fans of Married at First Sight wait for the end of what they have deemed the worst season to date and look forward to the show regaining their support with the upcoming season 15 set to take place in San Diego, Kinetic Content Casting is already holding auditions for season 16.
Season 16 is set to return to Nashville, as suggested in their initial post from February 2022. Open call auditions are still underway, as the link to upload online auditions is still open to entrants.
Moreover, the link has also teased the possibility of the next location being Los Angeles, but no confirmation has been shared on this matter.
Final thoughts
Lifetime’s Married at First Sight’s season 14 has continued to let down its viewers. This is as it has been criticised by fans who claim that the recent seasons have prioritised drama and conflict over the intended premise of the show.
As a result, fans are awaiting the fifteenth season of the show with bated breath. No word has been released yet on the couples that will feature in the new season, as season 14 is still underway on Lifetime. Although, eager fans are projecting a July 2022 release date for season 15.
