The cast of Married At First Sight have been left devastated after they were told they will not be invited this year’s Logie Awards next month.
Despite the show being nominated for an award, some leading cast members are fuming over their exclusion from the prestigious event.
Scheduled for August 18 in Sydney, the glamorous event, which is broadcast on Channel Seven, will see the who’s who of television come together.
According to an insider, several cast members who were initially promised invitations, have now been informed they will no longer be attending.
‘Cast were told it was a Channel Seven event and the number of invites being handed out to Channel Nine talent would be extremely limited,’ said the source.
This unexpected decision by Seven has left many cast members feeling ‘betrayed and disappointed’.
With 24 participants appearing on the show this year, it was always anticipated that only a select few would secure invites due to the limited number handed out by the network.
Daily Mail Australia recently revealed only a select few participants, if any, would be considered to attend this year’s ceremony.
Front runners included Lucinda Light, Tristan Black, and couple Jade Pywell and Ridge Barredo.
It’s likely experts Mel Schilling, John Aiken and Alessandra Rampolla will instead be attending to represent the show.
Despite their relationship going strong, Jack Dunkley and Tori Adams are unlikely to receive an invite following their controversial stint on the show.
As of Tuesday, none of this year’s cast have received any invites yet, despite some boasting that they have secured an invite to the highly coveted event.
‘No one has any clue what’s going on. [The cast] are pretty in the dark about it,’ one insider told Daily Mail Australia.
‘Some are livid because they chose to behave thinking they would land an invite but now they’re told they’re more than likely not going.’
Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Channel Seven for comment.
