I am deeply saddened to inform you that, as of now, there are no reports of any “Married at First Sight” star losing their battle with cancer. In fact, there have been recent positive updates regarding cast members who have faced cancer diagnoses.
Mel Schilling, a renowned expert on “Married at First Sight Australia,” was diagnosed with colon cancer in December 2023. Despite the challenges, she continued her professional commitments, filming both the UK and Australian versions of the show. Mel underwent keyhole surgery to remove a five-centimeter tumor, followed by six months of chemotherapy throughout 2024. In a heartening development, she announced in January 2025 that she is now in remission. Reflecting on her journey, Mel emphasized the importance of paying attention to one’s body and not dismissing symptoms. She shared, “Stop and pay attention to your body.” citeturn0search2
