Get ready for the return of everyone's favorite marital TV show, Married At First Sight! But what if you're outside the UK? Don't worry, we've got you covered. Here's how to watch Married At First Sight abroad.
Married At First Sight UK is returning soon – here's how to watch it abroad
The UK version of Married At First Sight first aired on television back in 2015 and has been captivating audiences with its whirlwind romances and drama ever since.
The MAFS 2023 lineup has just been announced, featuring a former Geordie Shore star and the show's first trans bride.
The show is set to start on Monday, September 18th, but if you're traveling abroad, you might run into some streaming issues. The Channel 4 streaming platform is geo-locked, which means it's not available outside the UK.
However, there's a simple solution: download a VPN like ExpressVPN or NordVPN.
In the next section, we'll guide you on how to watch Married At First Sight abroad without any issues.
How to watch Married At First Sight abroad
VPNs are downloadable tools that can route your internet activity through a server in a different location than your actual IP address.
This means that you can (legally) make it appear as though you're accessing the Channel 4 streaming platform from the UK, even if you're not.
First, download a VPN like ExpressVPN or NordVPN to the device you use for streaming content.
Next, open the VPN app and select a UK server.
Go to the Channel 4 website, search for Married At First Sight, and press play. Sit back and enjoy the nuptials!
As we mentioned, this process is completely legal, but we always remind our readers that if you want to watch any live UK TV outside the UK, you need to have a TV license.

Can I watch Married At First Sight overseas?
Yes, you can watch Married At First Sight overseas, as long as you set up a VPN to get around the geo-locked content on Channel 4.
Just like all British channels, Channel 4's content is only available for streaming within the UK. This is also the case for BBC iPlayer and ITVX.
But by using a VPN and selecting a UK-based server, you can access these platforms as if you're still in the UK.
