Married at First Sight: Luke Runs Speed Dating Service – Met Wife Kate Sisk Prior to Wedding
Married at First Sight Season 8 featured another wedding between Luke Cuccurullo and Kate Sisk. The premise of MAFS is that the love hopefuls don’t meet one another until their wedding day. The catch for Luke and Kate is that they met once before. It seems the now-married couple met through Luke Cuccurullo’s speed dating service. Could this ruin their chance at love?
MAFS: Luke Cuccurullo & Kate Sisk tie the knot
Married at First Sight Season 8 kicked things off with more weddings this week. Last week’s episode ended in a cliffhanger. Only two of this season’s four couples were married last week. The episode opens with Luke and Kate saying “I do.” As an interesting storyline to follow, Kate’s father didn’t attend her wedding. Her brother walked her down the aisle instead.
Married at First Sight Season 8 takes place in Philadelphia this year. What’s interesting is that it’s a small world for Luke and Kate. As soon as Kate walks down the aisle, Luke realizes that they’ve met before. Kate Sisk doesn’t seem to be aware of this. They appear to have an instant physical connection but it will be interesting to see if their prior meeting will play a role in how they get on as a married couple.

Married at First Sight: Luke and Kate met before
On the surface, it seems that going from running a speed dating service to Married at First Sight is quite the jump. Luke Cuccurullo says in his interview that he didn’t want to reveal that he and Kate had met before. If they met in person before and let each other go, did they have a spark the first time they met? If they did meet in person prior to their marriage, what prevented them from keeping in touch?
As Luke Cuccurullo and his new wife toast to their legally binding marriage on Married at First Sight, Luke contemplates revealing that they’ve met before. He’s even a bit taken aback that Kate Sisk doesn’t recognize him. The conversation reaches a standstill. It’s at this point that Luke reveals that they’ve met before. Interestingly, the reveal acts as an icebreaker for the couple. They both take it in stride. They seem to overcome this early speed bump.
Luke and Kate both seem to have early physical chemistry on Married at First Sight. In addition, Kate’s bubbly personality and sense of humor meshes well with Luke. Wherever they go from here, they definitely have chemistry early on. It will be interesting to see if any of this early chemistry translates into a happy and successful marriage.

What does the future hold?
It will be interesting to see how Luke and Kate’s relationship develops as the new Married at First Sight Season 8 continues. It will also be interesting to see if his approach to running his speed dating service changes at all since he’s now married. Will Kate Sisk be comfortable with him continuing his current career path? It’s also noted that Kate’s father is absent from her wedding. Her parents divorced not long before she walked down the aisle. Will the relationship with her father improve? Will he accept her marriage to Luke Cuccurullo as time goes on?
