Toward the end of T 2023, Married At First Sight expert Mel Schilling was on top of the world. She was busy filming Season 11 of the hit Aussie reality show and about to start work on her third season of the UK version.

"Everything was going great, but, I was exhausted all the time," Mel, 51, tells New Idea.
