Mel Schilling today announced that she will be stepping away from her role as an Expert on Married at First Sight Australia.
Mel said: “After 12 extraordinary seasons, I have made the heartfelt decision to step away from my role as an expert on Married at First Sight Australia.”
“This hasn’t been a choice I’ve made lightly. In recent years, my health challenges and living in the UK spending up to three months a year away from my family is no longer sustainable. It has become clear that I must make a change that puts my family, health and time at the very centre of my life.”
“What began as a small social experiment has grown into a global phenomenon, and I have felt truly privileged to be part of that journey. I am incredibly grateful to the fans, the production team, and my fellow experts for their trust and passion over the years.”
“I am leaving not with sadness, but with a deep sense of gratitude for everything we’ve achieved together. Stepping away from the Australian series is the right move for my future, though I look forward to continuing my work with Married at First Sight UK. Thank you for being part of this chapter with me.”
Adrian Swift, Nine’s Head Of Content, Production & Development
“Mel has been on the Married at First Sight journey from season two. She helped us define the show in the early days and always brought her incredible insight and empathy to both the matching process and to the commitment ceremony couch.”
“She has celebrated every high and met every challenge over the last 12 seasons of MAFS but her enthusiasm to find the best match for hundreds of Aussies has remained undiminished.”
“All of us at Nine hugely value her contribution to the nation’s most-watched television series but we understand the pull of her home in the UK and wish her continued success on MAFS UK.”
Tara McWilliams, Director of Content, Endemol Shine Australia
“It’s hard to imagine the couch without Mel. From the moment she joined the experiment, Mel brought an authenticity and passion that resonated deeply with millions of MAFS viewers, both here and abroad. Her ability to both challenge and champion our participants has helped shape the heart and evolution of the series.”
“We are forever grateful for all that she’s brought to the show, and while we will miss her expertise, warmth and unmistakable presence, we wholeheartedly support her decision to prioritise her life in the UK with her family, wishing her every happiness”.

The Australian Financial Review today unveiled a new brand campaign ‘It’s Not For Everyone’, designed to reinforce its position as the daily habit of successful people.
Developed in partnership with Howatson+Company, the campaign is centred around the aspirational mindset that sets Australia’s most successful and ambitious people apart – a relentless drive and commitment to achieve their goals both at work and in their personal lives.
This mindset isn’t limited to the Financial Review’s corporate heartland, but those seeking success through entrepreneurial endeavours and personal wealth generation. A growing cohort who are actively seeking out the knowledge and insights to help them understand the world, make informed decisions and get ahead in every aspect of their lives.
By reflecting the mindset, behaviours and attitudes that unite the Financial Review’s diverse audience, the campaign aims to broaden the brand’s appeal and build a community around shared values. And in an increasingly fragmented and competitive landscape demonstrate the masthead’s unique value in helping its readers realise their ambitions.
The comprehensive rollout will run nationally from today (February 16) and consists of television, streaming, audio, large and small format out-of-home, digital, print and social.
The campaign leads with a hero film which tracks the effort, grit and obsession it takes to achieve a moment of success across three key storylines. Two further story arcs are explored through supporting materials, to reflect the AFR’s diverse readership and editorial pillars, including corporate leadership, technology, fashion, property and agriculture.
Tonally the film aims to reflect the emotional reality of ambition, with every technical element – from sound design to cinematography – engineered to mirror the experience of the characters.
The film is supported by a suite of photographic stills that capture the emotion of each scene, shot by renowned photojournalist Adam Ferguson.
A series of editorial and content initiatives will launch this week including subscriber notes, newspaper wraps of the Financial Review and special editorial collections that bring to life the real world stories of ambition, passion and commitment within the Australian business community.
“The campaign reflects our core belief that entrepreneurship is the most important driver of Australia’s future prosperity. We report on all aspects of business so it’s great to do something that is unapologetically focused on telling stories about people who will shape this country in the coming decades,” said The Australian Financial Review editor-in-chief James Chessell.
‘It’s Not For Everyone’ marks the first brand campaign for the Financial Review since 2022 and comes during a period of strong subscriber and audience growth.
“The power of this campaign is in its honesty,” said Vera Straubinger, Head of Brand & Acquisition at Nine. “The acknowledgement that ambition doesn’t look the same to everyone, and what unites our audience today isn’t their job title or rung on the corporate ladder, but their drive for progress. The grit and determination to realise their dreams. At its heart, this campaign is essentially a love letter to the pursuit.
“Our strategy shift moves success from a place (the boardroom) to an attitude (the success mindset). And by admitting that the AFR isn’t for everyone, we’re doubling down on exactly who it is for – Australians looking to the Financial Review for the knowledge and insights to help them get ahead in every aspect of their lives.”
Directed by Dylan Duclos and produced by Collider, the TVCs will be shown in 15, 30 and 60 second formats and were filmed in Sydney.
“The Australian Financial Review is not only iconic, but it delivers the insight and coverage to achieve success. This campaign celebrates the truth that modern success has many forms, but one defining quality: an unstoppable drive. Some have it, some don’t, and that’s okay. After all, like everything in life, not everything is for everyone. It’s bold, honest and true to a publication that stands by the statement “the daily habits of successful people.” said Richard Shaw, Deputy Chief Creative Officer at Howatson+Company.

As Cooper Woods etches his name into Winter Olympic history, Nine’s broadcast of the Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026™ has so far reached a Total Television audience of 12 million Australians across Channel 9, 9Gem and 9Now.
With adrenaline-packed events like downhill skiing, luge and snowboarding big air taking centre stage, younger Australians have been captivated and highly-engaged, with the coverage reaching 2.9 million viewers in the key demo of People 16-39 across Total TV.
Nearly half that demographic – 43% – has been watching solely via 9Now, further cementing the country’s move towards Broadcast Video on Demand (BVOD) consumption. Nine’s coverage keeps growing, with 5.1 million people tuning in on Day 6 across Total TV, an increase of +5% on the previous day.
Adding in Stan Sport’s comprehensive coverage of every event in full, Nine has ensured broadcast sponsors and brands are at the centre of coverage that is resonating with Australians, sharing in a national cultural moment as athletes take on the alps of Milano Cortina. The most viewed disciplines on Stan Sport so far are snowboarding and the various skiing events.
With this weekend marking the halfway point of the Winter Games, there is still loads of opportunity for brands to put themselves in the heart of the action and a captive audience.
Nikki Rooke, Nine’s National Sales Director – Total Television, said: “Milano Cortina 2026 is clearly capturing the imagination of Australians. Australians of all ages are leaning in to watch the best athletes compete in one of the most beautiful settings in the world.
