Married At First Sight EXCLUSIVE: Amanda Micallef becomes the first cast member to land a media job – as her co-stars struggle to make a living as Instagram influencers
Married At First Sight’s Amanda Micallef has landed a job in community radio.
The 34-year-old personal trainer now has her own weekly segment on the Let’s Get Deep show hosted by Michael El-Bacha and Belinda Joh, which airs on 2RRR.
She will be answering questions from listeners and sharing her own pearls of wisdom every Thursday from 9am.

Amanda told Daily Mail Australia: ‘2RRR is a local community station. They want me to do a weekly segment inspired by my [Instagram] Q&As.’
She continued: ‘I’ll pick two questions a week and present them as a segment. People can tune in online at 2RRR.org.au and it’s exciting.’
She also teased another upcoming radio venture with another network.

Amanda added: ‘I’ve also got another gig lined up with a comedian who works on radio. I can’t say too much about that, but it’s in the pipeline.
‘It’s all happening. Look out Hughesy and Kate, I’m coming for you.’
The brunette, who became one half of Married At First Sight’s first lesbian couple earlier this year alongside Tash Herz, has always dreamed of a media career.

After her wedding aired in February, her StarNow profile resurfaced from 2016.
On the page, Amanda listed herself as an aspiring actor, extra, model, TV presenter and radio presenter – and detailed her previous showbiz experience.
She appeared as an extra in 2009 Nicholas Cage movie, The Knowing.
Meanwhile, Amanda’s co-stars are mostly focusing on their careers as social media influencers and are yet to announce any jobs with media organisations.
