She’s fast become the most popular participant on Married At First Sight thanks to her bubbly personality and kooky Byron Bay attitude.
But fans may be surprised to learn that Lucinda Light, 43, has been hiding her real identity on the show.
While the marriage celebrant’s fun-loving disposition to be genuine, the name ‘Lucinda Light’ is actually a pseudonym she has been using professionally for five years.
The blonde, whose legal name is actually Lucinda Reilly, registered the name ‘Lucinda Light’ as her sole trader business name on 9 August 2019.
And while Lucinda has billed herself as a professional master of ceremonies, she also once moonlighted as a cabaret performer.

As recently as a year ago, Lucinda worked at Byron Bay burlesque establishment Secret Cabaret Society as the ‘Madam of the House’.
‘Join our 1920’s ‘Secret Cabaret Society’ an immersive restaurant experience for our esteemed guests,’ the venue’s website reads.
‘You’ll be in for the most spiffy time where the Madam of the House welcomes you into her ‘Tavern of Love”, it continued.

Videos of her performances show Lucinda storming the stage in flapper inspired garb and a plume-topped hat.
According to Yahoo! Lifestyle, some cast members had questions about Lucinda’s authenticity when she entered the experiment.
‘Lucinda is as quirky and positive as she comes across and great talent, but there were some whispers amongst the cast about her intentions [for doing MAFS] as she was there under a stage name rather than her real name,’ a production insider said.

It comes after Lucinda walked down the aisle with groom Timothy Smith on Tuesday night’s episode.
Ahead of their wedding ceremony, Timothy showed concern that his bride would be a ‘spiritual, energy type’.
Unfortunately for him, Lucinda invited a celebrant to begin their nuptials with a smoke ceremony, waving a white-feathered ‘chicken wing’ in the air to ‘cleanse away any negativity’.

Timothy struggled to keep it together, while Lucinda appeared completely immersed in the smoke.
‘When they were waving that chicken wing, I felt very uncomfortable,’ Timothy told the cameras.
‘It was a real chicken wing! I wasn’t in the moment… I was thinking, “Where’d they get the chicken wing from?”

‘Like, was it a sacrificial chicken or did they just find that wing?’
The businessman begged for something to fall from the sky and save him when to his surprise, an unexpected rainstorm rolled in and completely washed out the pair’s special day.
Guests frantically raced inside for shelter, while one pregnant attendee almost ‘had her baby’ in the run for cover.

The gloomy weather, which Lucinda said made her special day even better, temporarily prevented the couple from exchanging vows.
But as the rain and clouds cleared, the ceremony recommenced with Lucinda sharing her heartfelt vows.
Her soft and caring words sparked Timothy to change his first impressions of his bride.
Married At First Sight continues Wednesday at 7.30pm on Channel Nine and 9Now.
