Married At First Sight relationship expert Mel Schilling has revealed she soon plans to take an exciting new step in her television career.

Chatting about her television career so far, Schilling insisted she’s got more to offer.
"I'm really excited about the evolution of my career," she told Yahoo Lifestyle. "I've now done 11 seasons of the Aussie MAFS and I've done four in the UK, which is amazing and as you can tell it's still as fresh as ever.
"I'm still surprised every time I go into one of those commitment ceremonies."
However, despite this, she’s eager to showcase her talents across a wider range of television in the future.
"There's so much more to my skill set than what I'm doing and showing in that quite limited reality format," she explained.

Schilling went on to explain she instead aims to make a health focused documentary series.
"For me, I'm looking at some other projects that are sort of documentaries/docuseries around topics that I'm really passionate about - one obviously being my health," she explained.
The MAFS star explained she’s recently become increasingly interested in the topic of early onset cancer after being diagnosed with colon cancer herself in 2023.
"I can now actually get a crew together and actually start shooting something that's going to be really impactful and actually make a difference," she enthused. "That's exciting, where I'm using a different part of my brain."
