Jonathan Francetic was introduced to audiences in Married at First Sight season 6, but he has become a whole new man since making his reality television debut back in 2018. Jonathan was set up with Molly Duff on the dating show, but he ended up pursuing a relationship with former Married at First Sight expert, Dr. Jessica Griffin. From his wedding plans with Dr. Jessica to starting his own relationship-building business, here’s everything Jonathan has been up to since starring on Married at First Sight season 6.
The beginning of Jonathan’s experience on MAFS was a hopeful one. Jonathan was matched with Molly, and although they were complete strangers, the pair hit it off right away. Both Jonathan and Molly had similar senses of humor, hobbies, and life goals. Unfortunately, Molly revealed she was not attracted to Jonathan. No matter how compatible the couple turned out to be, Molly was unable to perceive Jonathan as anything more than a friend. Understandably, this was an issue for Jonathan, who hoped to have a lasting relationship with his newlywed. Molly grew less interested in trying to develop her relationship with Jonathan, and Jonathan grew frustrated with their distant dynamic. Jonathan and Molly prove marrying strangers on Married at First Sight doesn’t always work out. The couple had an explosive argument before Decision Day, which resulted in Jonathan and Molly agreeing to split during the season 6 finale.
Married at First Sight season 6 concluded, along with all hopes for Jonathan and Molly’s relationship, in April 2018. Only a few months later, Jonathan was in a relationship with an unexpected partner. In September 2018, Jonathan confirmed he was dating Dr. Jessica, a matchmaking expert who had worked on Married at First Sight from season 6 to season 8. By the end of fall 2018, Jonathan admitted he was in love with Jessica. On his Instagram, Jonathan explained his feelings for the former Married at First Sight doctor, “It’s love, pure love.” In April 2019, Jonathan proposed to Jessica at the Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona. Although Jonathan didn’t end up with Molly, he ended up finding one of Married at First Sight‘s greatest successes.
Jonathan and Jessica have been planning their wedding ceremony for a couple of years, as they had to postpone it in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The couple has not set a new date yet, but they confirmed that their love for one another is still strong. Fans rooting for the unconventional Married at First Sight couple should rest assured that the postponement is not a reflection of the couple’s relationship status as they continue to share their love for one another. Both Jonathan and Jessica post about each other on Instagram frequently, proving the pandemic has not gotten between their reality TV love. On top of posting pictures together, Jonathan has also gone into business with his fiancé. In 2019, Jonathan and Jessica launched Love Builder, a business that helps coach couples to foster healthy, long-lasting relationships.
Fortunately, Jonathan and the former Married at First Sight expert found happy endings after their varied experiences on the hit reality show. From getting engaged to becoming business partners dedicated to helping others build a relationship as strong as his, Jonathan’s journey after reality TV has been much more successful than his time on the dating series was. While Jonathan wasn’t married to his perfect match on Married at First Sight season 6, he has found his perfect matchmaker since.
