Fans of “Married at First Sight” are getting a treat in May: Lifetime has announced a spinoff of their hit social-experiment show.

Couples from previous seasons who stayed together will be giving viewers an in-depth look into their lives since filming has ended. Cast additions from Season 10, which is currently airing, will be announced after this month’s finale.

Called “Married at First Sight: Couples’ Cam,” the six-episode show will be self-shot by the former contestants. It premieres on May 20 at 8 p.m. on Lifetime.

On “MAFS,” relationship experts match singles who meet for the first time at their wedding. After getting legally married, the pairs spend eight weeks together, going on a honeymoon, moving in together and meeting their families — before deciding if they’d like to stay together or get a divorce.

Expect to see fights, births and how their marriages function without the experts helping them.

Here are the couples that have been announced so far.

Jamie Otis and Doug Hehner, Season 1

The Monmouth County, N.J., couple is the longest-standing marriage from the show. Since meeting in the aisle in 2014, they’ve had one daughter, Henley Grace. Hehner works in software sales and Otis is a registered nurse. They started a podcast, “Hot Marriage. Cool Parents.“, where they hope others can learn from their experience.

Beth Bice and Jamie Thompson, Season 9

Known for their extreme fighting, Bice and Thompson moved from Charlotte, N.C., to Silicon Valley after the show aired. They recently started a Youtube channel where they spill dirt on their lives, even their “basic Caucasian” sex life, which has since improved.

Deonna McNeill and Gregory Okotie, Season 9

McNeill and Okotie celebrated their one-year anniversary this month by eating the top of their wedding cake, according to an Instagram post. They’ve started a clothing line called Akpesiri.
