The six Chicago-area residents who participated on Season 5 of "Married at First Sight" reunite for a holiday special scheduled to air Dec. 26.

Pastor Cal Roberson, who helped pair the strangers for marriage and provided them spiritual guidance, and his wife Wendy meet with the castmates on "Married at First Sight: Holiday Game Night,” Lifetime network representatives announced this week.

Season 5 of “Married at First Sight" followed three couples as they met and married at the Palmer House Hilton in August 2016, embarked on their Caribbean honeymoons and moved in together in the Chicago area.

After the eight weeks of documentation was over, each couple had to decide if they would stay married or get divorced. In a series first, all three couples initially said they would stay together. They were still together on the reunion episode, which aired Aug. 3.

The holiday special was filmed in Chicago before Chicago dietitian Danielle DeGroot, 31, and Genoa native Cody Knapek, 27, announced Aug. 22 they had split. Knapek cited irreconcilable differences when he filed for divorce in Cook County on Sept. 26, court records show.

Meanwhile, suburban facilities director Sheila Downs announced Sunday on Twitter she is “so done” with her marriage to Nate Duhon, who runs a T-shirt business. Downs also dropped the “Duhon" name from her social media profiles. Downs and Duhon did not respond to a Tribune request for comment.

The season's third couple, suburban bar manager Ashley Petta and business publication co-founder Anthony D’Amico, appear to still be together.

The next installment of “Married at First Sight" will feature Boston-area couples.
