Source-derived summary

The seventh season of Married at First Sight premiered on 3 February 2020 on the Nine Network. Relationship experts John Aiken, Mel Schilling and Trisha Stratford all returned from the previous season to match eleven brides and nine grooms. The show cast their first same-sex couple since marriage equality laws were passed in Australia. Halfway through the experiment, the experts matched another two brides and two grooms together, including Elizabeth Sobinoff who previously appeared in season 6.

Having discovered that his partner had cheated on him with another groom, David Cannon used wife Hayley Vernon's toothbrush to clean their toilet.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “season of television series” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Attribution, date and provenance are strongest when supported by the original work, a catalogue record and documented transmission. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 6, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q110877332. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2020.

Critical limits

Rights, attribution and provenance may remain disputed even when a general reference summary presents a stable account. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Separate the work, its editions or performances, and its later reception. Catalogue records, publication histories and object files often preserve different parts of that story.
