But things don't get off to a great start when she reveals her nerves after arriving at the altar.

In a first look at Tuesday night's show, Sionainn is seen turning to her family and friends and asking: "What am I doing, guys?"

She adds: "I'm feeling dead overwhelmed. I'm scared and want to run away.

"I feel like this is a massive mistake."

Ahead of her appearance on the show, Sionainn described her best qualities as her "kindness" and her "sense of humour".

She told Channel 4: "I would make the perfect wife because I'm funny, I can make a joke about anything.

"If you're sad I'm going to make you laugh and that's all you need."

However, Sionainn did make a rather startling confession.

She said: "Something I do that my husband might not like is I still suck my thumb. Pushing 30 and I still suck my thumb."

Sionainn also admitted the most embarrassing thing she'd done in the bedroom was when she "accidently kicked her exes dog off the bed".

MAFS couple drops HUGE hint they’re still together in new video

Meanwhile Ryan - who now works as a binman - revealed how he lives life to the full after being diagnosed with bladder cancer in 2017.

He has a six-year-old son named Leo, and wants to find someone who can be a "role model" to him.

Mafs couples that have stood the test of time

Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.

The pair couldn't keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam's Doncaster home.

Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau.

Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December.

Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: “I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out - and excited for everything to come.”

Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019.

Owen recalled: “I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work.

"While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in.

“The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if I signed up?’

“A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.”

Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson.

Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna's vegan lifestyle, the show's first same sex pairing are still going strong.

They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod.

Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: "We're not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship."
