Are Jessica & Austin Still Together? MAFS Update & Predictions

Lifetime Jessica Studer and Austin Hurd, stars of the upcoming new season of "Married at First Sight," are one of five new couples featured on Season 10.

Jessica Studer and Austin Hurd, one of five couples featuring on Season 10 of Lifetime’s hit experimental reality series Married at First Sighthad one of the most comfortable, easygoing nuptials and first meetings of any of the couples featured on Season 10 yet.

However, clips of the upcoming season shows some rocky times ahead for the reality couple, despite their sweet, silly and seemingly-happy relationship so far. A clip from an earlier episode shows the two having an uncomfortable conversation about how often Austin will be traveling for work, which doesn’t sit well with Jessica, so fans might be wondering if the pair is still together today.

Although it’s still a bit too soon to tell (we likely won’t know for sure until the season wraps up), we’ve got some thoughts on what might go down between the two in the end. Warning: some light Married at First Sight relationship spoilers on Jessica and Austin ahead! Turn back now if you don’t want anything ruined for you before Decision Day! Read on for our MAFS predictions on the reality couple:


A Photo Surfaced Showing the Two Together, Cuddled on a Couch While Watching MAFS

Jessica and Austin, MAFS, Married at First Sight

Instagrammer @mafsfan shared a photo of the two cuddled together on a couch during a “MAFS” Watch Party.

Instagrammer MAFSFan recently shared a series of spoilers on his page involving the fate of each of the Season 10 couples. Although they didn’t give a specific update on Austin and Jessica, the Instagrammer shared a photo of the two cuddled up together on a couch while watching a new episode of the show (so the photo was likely taken very recently).

Although the photo is far from proof that the two are still married and together today, it definitely gives us a good feeling that Jessica and Austin might stick it out on Decision Day (we hope so at least!) and remain married.

Update: MAFSFan also shared a recent photo and video of the two together at a restaurant called Tequila Jacks in Long Beach, California while Lifetime was filming the reunion special. According to the Instagrammer, both reality stars were wearing their wedding rings, so we believe the two are still together today. 

The Instagrammer also shared a series of other spoilers in their stories, including a few updates on other couples who decided to split right after filming ended, but we won’t share those spoilers in this post.
