A former Bachelor star is ready to take another shot at love, this time on Married At First Sight in 2025.
Daily Mail Australia can exclusively reveal that Sierah Swepstone, who appeared on Jimmy Nicholson’s season of the Channel 10 dating show back in 2021, will be returning to screens next year.
Her elimination from The Bachelor went down in reality TV history as one of the best exits when she hilariously confessed Jimmy wasn’t into ‘tall, horny bogans’ after he sent her home.
The 31-year-old technical analyst from Victoria has been spotted on set of the Channel Nine show, and already filmed her backstory in Melbourne.
This is the first time a participant from the rival dating franchise has appeared on MAFS.
Sierah knows exactly what she wants, and she’ll stop at nothing to make sure she gets it.
She describes herself as a Ferrero Rocher – hard on the outside, soft on the inside, and a little bit nutty.
Still struggling to find love after her infamous stint on the Channel 10 dating show, Sierah couldn’t be more thrilled when she was approached by casting producers to appear on MAFS.
‘She is a nutter but amazing for television because she just doesn’t care,’ an insider told Daily Mail Australia on Friday.
Sierah infamously made headlines after she shocked viewers when she admitted that she’s ‘had chlamydia’ while dressed in a bizarre koala costume.
The then-Bachelor hopeful deadpanned that she’s ‘definitely had chlamydia’ during a cocktail party that saw everyone dressed up as their ‘spirit animal’.
Despite dressing up as a phoenix, Sierah confessed that she should have come dressed as a koala instead.
‘So I was gonna say that my spirit animal was a koala tonight, because I like sleeping and I’ve definitely had chlamydia,’ she explained.
‘But I thought that would be quite hard to explain to [Bachelor] Jimmy [Nicholson], so I stuck with a phoenix because I’ve risen from the ashes.’
Sierah’s candid and unapologetic personality is sure to make her a standout on MAFS, and viewers can expect plenty of memorable moments after she takes her turn down the aisle.
Sierah is the second bride confirmed to appear MAFS 2025, after Daily Mail Australia revealed Rhi Disljenkovic, a Melbourne-based fitness blogger would appear on the series.
According to an insider, producers are hoping that the new cast will once again bring unparalleled drama.
As anticipation mounts for Season 12, fans can brace themselves for another heart-pounding, highly addictive love quest.
The upcoming season is poised to redefine the boundaries of love, drama, and entertainment.
An insider connected to the show let slip that the series will feature the most outrageous cast to date.
‘MAFS will continue to capture the nation’s attention, making it a cultural phenomenon unlike any other,’ the source teased.
The updated application form also requires applicants to describe ‘in detail’ any cosmetic procedures they have previously undergone and whether they would be interested in a relationship with the same sex.
Among the new cast members, expect a glamorous blonde who will give Lauren Dunn a run for her money, and another tattooed alpha type who is tipped to be the season’s villain.
The series will also feature several brides and grooms who have already appeared on other reality shows.
