A source exclusively revealed to The Jattvibe that Hannah Norburn may be gracing screens across the country once more, despite her rocky experience on MAFS the first time around.
Speaking about the possibility of her return, the source shared: “Hannah created fireworks when she starred on MAFS UK, and was embroiled in a cheating scandal after groom Orson caught her eye while she was still married to Stephen.
“She is great telly and bosses are hopeful she will whip up plenty of drama on Second Marriage At First Sight.
“Talks are ongoing at the moment and the final cast will be nailed down very soon, but it’s looking really promising.”

The news comes shortly after The Jattvibe exclusively reported that two other MAFS favourites are in talks to return for the spin-off show.
Emma Barnes, who shot to fame in the 2024 run of the series, is set for a show comeback.
She was cruelly fat-shamed by her TV groom Caspar Todd, but fans totally had her back online.
Chatting about Emma potentially making a return, an insider told us: “MAFS UK fans fell in love with Emma when she starred on the show in 2024.
“She had a difficult time with her husband, Caspar, who told her he wasn’t attracted to curvier women, and watching how Emma dealt with this blow made her a firm favourite with viewers.
“While she and Casper didn’t work out, Casper has gone on to get married in real life, and now hopefully Emma will get her shot at a happy ending.

“She has had meetings with Channel 4 bosses about starring on Second Marriage At First Sight, which will see her paired with an Australian groom.
Our source added: “The final casting line-up hasn’t been decided yet, but Emma has been in talks for weeks and the show producers love her – they think audiences will be desperate to see her try and find love again.”
Jay Howard is also in talks to make a return, three years after she split from her TV groom.
Jay was married to Luke Worley in the hit series of MAFS UK back in 2023, and was notable as the show’s first disabled contestant.
She was born without part of her arm and is a disability advocate and a charity ambassador for Reach, a UK limb difference charity.
A source has told The Jattvibe: “Jay is in the mix to have another shot at love.
“She was very popular with viewers, who loved her feisty yet vulnerable nature, and while things didn’t work out with Luke, she proved to be a very memorable bride.
“Channel 4 are keen to see Jay on the franchise again, and think she would bring both heart and humour to the Second Marriage At First Sight spin off.
“The final line-up is still to be confirmed at the moment, but it’s looking promising for Jay.”
Second Marriage At First Sight will see stars from both the British and Australian versions of the show meet one another for a second chance at love.
With the two versions colliding for the first time, Aussies will be paired with Brits and Brits with Aussies.
They’ll spend half of the experiment in the UK before flying to Australia before each couple is forced to decide which one of them will move to the other side of the world to make their marriage work.
The Jattvibe has contacted Channel 4 for comment.
