And just like that, the final Married At First Sight weddings happened, and one of the last brides to get hitched was Melinda Willis. 

Melinda is a successful 31-year-old business owner who runs four companies. During Melinda’s introduction, she said, “females, when they see me, they’re either intimidated or super inspired,” which low-key gave us flashbacks to mean girls in high school.

On Sunday night’s episode, Melinda copped backlash from MAFS fans, who called her out for her judgemental demeanour during her wedding ceremony.

ICYMI, the experts paired Melinda with 35-year-old biotech CEO Layton Mills, and in a piece-to-camera, Melinda said that Layton was “punching” and that she would “swipe left” on him in a dating app. 

Because of her unenthused reaction to Layton, some fans speculated that Melinda will be caught in a cheating scandal this season. 

While she wasn’t too keen on Layton at the start of the wedding, Melinda ended up making some attempts to accept him by the end of their ceremony. 

Here’s everything we know about high maintenance Married at First Sight bride, Melinda Willis: 


Melinda is from the sunshine state aka Queensland. She’s the CEO of four companies: Feather Sisters, MW Lashes, BSSA, and Melly’s Beauty Parlour.

Because of her many business ventures, her bio says she hopes to find an “ambitious man who is equally business-minded, understands her lifestyle, and won’t be clingy.”

With Layton being a CEO himself, we hope he delivers.

We honestly love a boss bitch who stirs the pot, and even though Melinda is (so far) giving hectic energy, we’re predicting a possible villain-to-hero arc this season.
