Married at First Sight has matched couples from different parts of the country each season, with this upcoming season taking place in Houston, Texas. When MAFS first began, both Season 1 and 2 took place in the New York City/New Jersey area.
Going forward, the series would adjust to have couples be more local to one another, and that’s likely due to the location difficulties that Season 2 couple, Davina and Sean, faced during their few weeks of marriage.
Davina and Sean hardly spent time together
Davina and Sean were infatuated with each other on their wedding day and both believed the experts got their pairing right. They found each other attractive and had high hopes that this could be the love they had long been searching for.
However, the honeymoon phase did not last long for the couple. Both had busy schedules with Davina working as a successful pharmaceutical saleswoman and Sean working as a trauma nurse.
They also had contrasting communication styles and wants from a spouse. Davina was too independent for Sean and Sean wasn’t assertive enough for Davina, who wanted to feel both challenged and respected by her husband.
Amidst all these problems, the biggest issues for the couple was their homes being so far away from each other. Davina wanted Sean to stay with her in the city but, throughout the process, Sean realized he didn’t want to be that far away from home.
It was revealed that the two hardly ever stayed under the same roof during the short experiment, with Sean constantly returning back to his hometown. Having only spent ten days out of the six-week experiment together, the pair was never able to build a deep connection or get to know each other since their time together was so scarce.
While none of the three couples on MAFS Season 2 remained married in the long run, Davina and Sean were the only couple to know they had no future together by the time the experiment ended and both said no on Decision Day. Season 2 ended up having a significantly lower success rate than Season 1, with none of the Season 2 couples’ marriages lasting, whereas Jamie and Doug from Season 1 are still married and still very connected with the MAFS franchise.
Where are Davina and Sean now?
Both Davina and Sean are now parents and found love with new people.
Davina Kullar is now Davina Davis. She married her husband, Donald Davis in 2016 and, despite her devotion to NYC on MAFS, the pair eventually relocated and now reside in North Carolina.
Davina and Donald also expanded their family when she gave birth to their precious son, Hudson, in 2019. She and her son share the same birthday month.
Since having her baby, Davina’s social media mostly consists of adorable photos of her son and their adventures as a family. Recently she posted about her son turning two in May.
Sean is not as public with his social life and has expressed no longer wanting to speak about or be associated with Married at First Sight.
From what he has shared publicly in the past, it seems Sean got engaged in 2018 and eventually married his significant other. It also appears Sean is now a father and is currently raising his daughter Ellie.
Both Davina and Sean have separated themselves from the MAFS franchise for the most part and appear much happier with their new families.

I thought Davina was wonderful and kind. Her and Sean may have shared some of the same values, but I don’t think they were both hetero. “And that’s ok,” as Jerry said on Seinfeld. What’s not ok is to have Davina invest so much time and energy into a relationship that was doomed from the get-go. That was cruel and I felt sorry for Davina.
NJ was too far from NYC for him? Lol. I used to drive up from WDC to see my girlfriend in NYC every chance I got. By the time I got to NJ, I was almost there. Clearly, the distance was not the real issue. Living poor in NYC with Davina vs living in NJ with all the money, friends and fame in the world? Call me Charlie Chaplin, but hands down I take struggling everyday in NYC with Davina. I’m not buying Sean’s distance excuse.
Sean might be one of these people who feels trapped in the closet because of family, society, and work. Remember when he gave her the Bible? The “rosary from his grandfather?” This religious background can make for a cultural generation clash. I’ve seen people from families like this who are afraid to come out. A gay friend explained that he knows gay people who went into the Priesthood to hide their gayness from family.That’s really sad.
Ths is America and you can be who you want to be, and as gay as you want to be. Secondly, if his family doesn’t accept him as gay, they don’t really love him so move on. If he doesn’t want to confront the issue, that’s fine. But don’t play with women’s hearts, manipulate them, gaslight them, and waste their time just to hide their sexuality from family.
This “experiment” was not fair to Davina because Sean was untruthful. How the producers didn’t catch it is beyond me. It was cruel trick on Davina, IMO.
I watched most of the season in 2015 after (during) a really traumatic experience. During the time, I was experiencing unimaginable gaslighting. The show, MAFS, was the one show that made me forget the on-going horrific crimes and gave me hope for a relationship and normalcy in the future.
I lost track of the show and didn’t finish season two because I moved. I did talk about it with girlfriend who was addicted to the show in 2019-20. I’m COVID sick today, so I vegged out watching TV. MAFS season two was on (a couple times), so I caught up. (Where does the time go!?) I forgot what an interesting show it was. I forgot how awesome Davina was, and how much she was being manipulated. Maybe I could relate because of what I was experiencing. I’m happy that she has moved on and has a family now. On the bright side, at least she didn’t have to get a RESTRAINING ORDER like poorJessica! Yikes?
