Lucinda
It's no secret that Lucinda is a standout favourite among the MAFS brides and grooms of Season 11.
As the bride took to Instagram to thank her fans and following for the overwhelming support, she revealed that not too long ago she was struggling in a darker place in her life.
"I just wanted to say a big fat thank you for your love and support you've been giving me, you divine creatures you!" Lucinda began.
"The cheer on has been beyond my wildest imaginings and I'm so damn humbled by all of it. This chapter unravelling before my eyes feels like the most aligned yet.
"It wasn't long ago, I was down on my knees, tear streaked, begging the universe for a break, begging it for my purpose to be fully activated.
"At the heart of it~ I'm here to share love and light, awareness and good vibes in anyway I can✨."
Andrea Thompson and Timothy Smith
Andrea and Timothy are celebrating life by hitting the clubs!
Andrea shared a video of the pair getting down on a dance floor and we love to see it.
While some fans have been speculating that these two would make a lovely couple, Andrea insists they're just great mates.
"No we are not together but the very best of friends," she told a follower in her Instagram comments.
Friends who boogie together!
Eden Harper
How else would Eden mark her return to Instagram than with photos featuring her main love, Cub?
"A lot has changed lately, but some things will always stay the same..." Eden wrote.
As for what's next from her, following her split from Jayden, Eden shared that she's "grateful for what has passed and excited for what's to come".

Sara Mesa
In May 2024, Sara held a Q&A in her Instagram Stories, where she shared insight into her life after the experiment.
When asked where she and Tim stand now, Sara said "he's got a beautiful girlfriend now and I couldn't be happier for him".
"We are still friends and there is no bad blood between us," she shared.
She also praised meeting bestie Lauren Dunn as the highlight of her MAFS experience.
Tori Adams and Jack Dunkley
ITori and Jack made sure to show us just how loved up they are.
"This right here is my guy!" Tori wrote alongside this cute selfie.
Even the couple's nemesis throughout the experiment, Lauren Dunn, couldn't help but acknowledge their happiness.
"Proved us all wrong and I will shout it from the rooftops 😂," Lauren commented.
Tori seemed to appreciate the message, replying: "Hahaha!! Girl I'll shout it out with you! 😅"
Jack Dunkley
Since wrapping up his MAFS journey, Jack has wasted no time going back to normal life.
That of course includes heading back to the gym for the personal trainer.
Jack posted this solo picture of himself showing off his muscles and tattoos.
"Mindset is key. What ever you do, do it well & dont look back! #grateful 🖤," he captioned the snap.
The photo came after Tori and Jack shared a relationship update.

Tori and Jack
Tori and Jack are settling into their new life on the Gold Coast.
Weeks after the finale Commitment Ceremony aired, the happy couple are looking closer than ever – some would say even bliss.
In April 2024, Tori and Jack shared this sweet snap of the pair leaning into each other with Jack's arm around his MAFS wife.
"Jack Dunkley, you are my whole world 🌏💕," Tori captioned the photo, while Jack wrote: "Life is blissful 🖤🤍."
Earlier in the month Tori confirmed she moved her life from Melbourne to be with her partner. Sounds like the right choice!
Jono and Ellie
Jono and Ellie announced their relationship during the Reunion Dinner Party.
It was a controversial move, as their respective exes – Lauren and Ben – had no idea they were a couple until the moment they walked through the door.
But despite the drama they started on-screen, away from the show Jono and Ellie are nothing but happy.
In fact, in April 2024 the couple celebrated a relationship milestone as they jetted off for their first ever holiday together.
"Our first holiday together 🌴 We're on island time babyyyy 😎," Ellie captioned this post, confirming they'd set off for the sunny shores of Vanuatu.
