You may want to sit down, because we have some truly shocking, potentially devastating news to share.

It has come to our attention that a large number of the currentMarried At First Sightcontestants are… actors.

Not like, ‘recognisable from that one time they were a minor character onHome and Away ‘ or even ‘in an embarrassing TV commercial’ level actors but still, apparently, actors.

MAFS Experts: UNCUT. Post continues below video.

It seems that many of the 2020 cast are not on the show to find love with a stranger with whom they have nothing in common.

This is almost as upsetting as the rumour John Aiken won’t return for another season of pretending to match people based on compatibility and not ratings.

Please let us present irrefutable evidence that instead, they were looking for a big break a.k.a maybe a future role onNeighboursanddefinitelysome Instagram endorsements.

Cathy.

Cathy is perhaps the most qualified ‘actor’ on the show… which is to say she actuallyisqualified.

The 26-year-old graduated from Unitec Institute of Technology in Auckland with a degree in performing arts in 2014, meaning she was practically a shoo-in for a spot on New Zealand’s very-dramatic-and-not-at-all-realisticNeighboursequivalentShortland Street, but she gave it all up to move to Australia to start her acting career.

After moving in 2015, and after much detective work, our very thorough investigation has found… absolutely no evidence that Cathy landed any roles.

Instead she worked as a personal trainer and in 2016, Cathy started her YouTube channel where she uploaded makeup tutorials, awkward date stories and ‘life updates’.

Her last video uploaded in July 2019 (Not long beforeMAFSstarted filming), was a story time of "ANOTHER TERRIBLE DATE".

Oh. Just imagine the stories she'll break an NDA to share post-Married At First Sight.

Mikey.

In 2013, Mikey appeared onDeal or No Deal, which technically is not an acting gig, but you're telling me it doesn't take skill to act excited over a $250 suitcase? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Then in 2017, Mikey made his acting debut in theABCminiseriesFriday on My Mind, about Australian rock band The Easybeats.

He's a background character in about six scenes across two episodes which... actually makes him the most experiencedMAFSactor.

Amanda.

With Amanda and her now fake ex-wife Tash gone from the show, she'll have plenty more free time to work on her accents.

Let us... explain.

Vanessa has a StarNow profile, where she explains she has a "humongous desire to be Australia's Leading Female Fitness Authority", would like to become "Australia's Bad Ass on Film" and says, we quote: "I believe I can act!".

StarNow also gives users the ability to list what accents they can do and... well, look:

Seriously. No comment. Image: StarNow.

"I can do any type of American accent, be that southern belle, Afro-American from Philly or a playa from the Bronx, even a straight up yankee from Wall Street," Amanda continued.

After thorough investigation, we've found she's only landed one role, as an extra in the 2009 Nicholas Cage filmThe Knowing,since playing the leads in high school plays.

But hey, who knows what wonderful opportunities an appearance on Australia's top-rated reality TV show may bring.

After the profile surfaced, Amanda posted a photo on Instagram captioned: "News has it apparently I’m an aspiring actress, if that’s the case my acting skills are terrible," with the hashtag #alwayshonest. So... maybe she's not keen onNeighbours.

We'll see.

Seb.

This man is allegedly joiningMAFSsoon as an 'intruder' alongside Elizabeth Sobinoff which is... unnecessary, but okay.

And surprise, surprise: The former footy player isverypassionate about acting.

"The only thing that's been consistent [in my life] has been my love of entertaining people and making people smile. I thought, 'What encompasses all of that?' and I came up with acting," he told Adelaide Now in 2018.

"I'm a massive movie buff and initially I had film in my mind, but now that I'm enjoying the rawness of stage theatre I'm open to anything. I have no doubt that this is the path I want to follow for the rest of my life - I've finally found my passion."

He's not kidding. The man even uploaded an Aladdin stage show audition on Instagram.
