Marriage at first sight 8: the mechanism and the news of the season
For the few who still don’t know the program, Marriage at first sight it is based on a very simple yet “crazy” idea. Getting six singles married “in the dark” and observing the evolution of their respective marriages in subsequent episodes. The creators of the couples, as in previous editions, are the so-called three experts of the heart: the sexologist Nada Loffredi, the sociologist Mario Abis and the life coach Andrea Favaretto. Singles, examined and then paired according to data collected through interviews and aptitude tests, will have to therefore live together for four weeks until the day they choose whether to continue with the experiment. Or get divorced.
This year, to make the program even spicier, the experts decided to blindfold the singles until they arrive at the altar. And only after having said the fateful yes, the bride and groom will discover the face of their respective spouse. Another seasonal novelty a radically different editing of the episodes. In fact, if before we followed the formation of the couples, the choice of the dress and the communication of the wedding to friends and family, now we start straight away in fifth gear with the last minutes before the wedding. To then go backwards and discover the singles one by one. But here’s who the three new protagonist couples are.
Alberto and Sonia
She is from Ravenna, he is from Brianza, the first couple we meet is definitely promising. Sonia is 27 years old and since she is little more than a teenager she is financially independent and proud of the goals achieved so far. In fact, still a student in high school, the girl began working in her stepfather’s pizzeria and then continued her studies until she became a technical designer. Very attached to her family, including her mother’s second husband, Sonia has a turbulent romantic past and a passion for “bad boys”. The opposite type of her future husband Alberto.
Osteopath by day and deejey by night, the boy from Nova Milanese finally feels ready for an important relationship. In fact, as he confides to the expert Andrea Favaretto, he has understood the mistakes of the past and the time is now ripe not to immediately throw himself headlong into a relationship by idealizing too much. Dreamer and idealist, Alberto is the youngest of three brothers and has his parents’ marriage as a model for his relationship. Will he be able to win the heart of the beautiful Sonia?
Juanchi and Gianna
Venetian by birth but Dominican by origin, the 35 year old is full of life and very cheerful. The last bachelor of four brothers, Juanchi works as a worker but is currently taking a course to become an interior designer. Marked by the premature loss of his father and the death of one of his brothers, the boy defines himself as very romantic and always careful to give attention to the woman he is in love with.
The beauty, however, is slightly younger Gianna, 28 year old from the province of Venice, graduated in Law and employed in personnel selection in a large company. When she is not in the office, she loves to crochet and paint. After a series of toxic relationships that have affected her greatly, Gianna now dreams of Prince Charming and a fairytale wedding. And who knows if her dream will come true as soon as she sees the handsome Juanchi.
Alessandro and Valentina
The third married couple is the one that was explored the least during the first episode, although from what little we have seen we can already imagine that it will be quite problematic. We know that he is 26 years old, comes from Milan and works as an analyst and computer programmer. The groom is very close to the two sisters it seems not to have made an impression on his wife’s friends who judged it not suitable for their friend’s aesthetic standards.
As for Valentina however, the 29 year old girl lives in Bergamo and, after working for ten years as an entertainer in tourist villages, is now employed in a travel agency. Lover of cooking and travel, she’s looking for a man who can stand up to her and the “passivity” of the future husband’s character doesn’t seem to match with his desires. Again according to her petulant friends. What will happen when the two start their life together? See you next week to find out.
