While Peacock's new season of Married at First Sight marks the show's first-ever pregnancy, the franchise has celebrated many growing families through the years. "We have had more than a 105,000 people apply for Married at First Sight. We match people with their stranger spouse. And, you know, we have 11 couples still going strong, 13 beautiful babies," Dr. Pepper Schwartz, one of the show's longtime relationship experts, says in Episode 1. "People still want love and commitment. They believe in the union of marriage."
Over the course of eight weeks, each pair of newlyweds will tackle the realities of marriage together, but only one couple will face a pregnancy that the show says "redefines what’s at stake" for them on Decision Day. Read on for everything we know so far and find out when exactly new episodes are available to stream on Peacock.

Meghann and Derrek are expecting a baby. At the end of Season 19, Episode 9, the couple revealed that Meghann is pregnant after taking multiple tests.
"We found out some pretty crazy news today. Some miraculous news, unexpected news. I think we're both nervous," Derrek said in a confessional video in bed together.
"We're pregnant!" Meghann said. "And we were not trying — to make that completely known."
"We've got a lot, a lot to talk about now ... This changes pretty much everything for us," Derrek said as Meghann added, "We're shocked, scared, and happy all at once."

In Episode 10 of Married at First Sight, the couples head off for a group "couples retreat" together, but Meghann and Derrek were keeping their pregnancy secret from everyone.
"It's still really early in the whole pregnancy," Derrek explained. "It's too early yet to have the first doctor's appointment where they do the ultrasound, we haven't gotten to that point yet. But that's going to be in a few weeks, so we're a little nervous to spend this close of, like, intimate time together around the other couples because we're not ready to tell anyone."
Who are all the couples on Married at First Sight Season 19?
Set in Austin, Texas this time around, Married at First Sight Season 19 follows five newlywed couples:
- Josh (31) and Jalyn (27)
- Pat (59) and Rhonda (63)
- Derrek (38) and Meghann (37)
- Chad (54) and Belynda (47)
- Will (30) and Brittany (29)
Each couple met for the very first time at the altar shortly being saying "I do" during their wedding episodes. They also exchanged personalized vows for their new partners in life, despite knowing nothing about them or their relationship. For instance, during Will and Brittany's wedding ceremony, the two wowed each other with their words.
"I promise to be faithful to you, I promise to show up as myself every day, allowing you to fully know me. I promise to make you laugh, happy, a little crazy sometimes, but most importantly, I promise to make you feel," Brittany told her new husband at the altar, while Will said, "As your husband, I'm ready to love you, I'm committed to giving you my best self on the sunny days and when it's dreary. I'm ready to learn about you, grow with you, and have a love like an undying flame glowing in the night."
Married at First Sight Season 19 revealed another big franchise first: a mother-daughter duo on the cast
This season's pregnancy isn't the only major first for Married at First Sight — the Season 19 premiere episode also revealed that cast members Jalyn and Belynda are related.
Shortly after Josh and Jalyn said "I do" in Episode 1, it's revealed that Jalyn and her mother, Belynda, are both going through this social experiment at the same time, both marrying a stranger on Married at First Sight.
"Our final wedding is a family affair," Pastor Cal Roberson teased at the top of Episode 3, just before Belynda met her husband, Chad, for the first time at the altar.
Jalyn, who had just married Josh the day before, later gave her mother some sage wedding day advice. "Last little piece of advice after doing this yesterday," Jalyn laughed, "would just be to try to stay focused on him and give him that, like, peace. I think if you guys can smile at each other, look at each other, hold hands, and feel comfortable that's gonna say a lot right there."
"Hope I don't pass out," Belynda admitted to her daughter before they shared a hug.
