Married At First Sights Ellie Dix was as wholesome as they came when she entered the experiment. Nursing a broken heart after her ex-fiancé cheated on her forcing her to cancel her wedding a month before the big day, she immediately drew the nation’s sympathy.

The experts Alessandra Rampolla, Mel Schilling and John Aiken paired her up with Ben Walters because they thought her wholesome nature would balance the fact that Ben hadn’t been in a relationship in eight years. Boy were they wrong.

Whilst Ben and Ellie didn’t make it through to the end of the experiment, it doesn’t mean she left without her man. Ellie made a connection with Lauren Dunn’s on-screen husband, Jonathan ‘Jono’ McCullough and in a surprise twist of events, the pair began texting behind Lauren’s back.

But was what they had real? From her age and job to who she’s dating now. Here’s what we know about MAFS Australia's Ellie Dix.

How old is Ellie from MAFS?

Ellie from MAFS Australia is 32 years old and her star sign is an Aquarius.

Aquarians are supposedly creative and passionate and Ellie has been passionate about her desire to start a family, which was a point of contention between herself and Ben when they were coupled together.

However Jono was also in the stage of his life where he wanted to start a family, so maybe that’s what attracted them to one another during the experiment.
