Married At First Sight Australia has had its fair share of cheating scandals. But well before its come to fruition, some spoilers have already been revealed about a new scandal in the 2024 season.
So, who does the cheating scandal involve?
These contestants have failed to remain so tight lipped this season, with many MAFS participants sharing their truths on radio programs, explosive interviews and getting caught by paparazzi.
Subtlety is not a reality TV star’s forte and each of this year’s MAFS stars has something to hide.
The scandal of Jack Dunkley reportedly dumping his girlfriend to partake in the experiment was brought to light very early on in the experiment. But that’s not the cheating scandal that has everyone in an uproar.
Jack did, however, have a lot to say about his MAFS co-star Sara Mesa – wed to Tim Calwell. In an exclusive interview with TV Week, Jack claimed Tim recalled his wife was “attracted to toxicitiy.”
“So after this cheating scandal blows up,” he begins. “She’s told Tim ‘I can’t see you this weekend, I’ve got to dog sit’.
“[It] comes out that she was spending that weekend with her ex… How’s the hypocrisy of that?”
Sara told TV Week there was “no actual cheating” and rather the situation looked “worse than it was.”
“I will say, I feel like it was a bit of emotional cheating because I didn’t tell Tim that he was there,” she said. “I didn’t tell Tim about the situation. And for that I do regret how I went about the situation.”
In photos obtained by Yahoo Lifestyle, Tim Calwell was photographed kissing a mystery girl on February 1 on the Gold Coast.
While speaking on The Kyle & Jackie O Show, Sara revealed few details about the mystery woman but what she did confess spoke volumes.
“It might’ve been an ex,” she said. “I actually can’t remember if the ex was Italian or Brazilian.”
During the interview, host Kyle Sandilands claimed he heard from “multiple people” that Tim was in a relationship with a Brazilian woman and suggested they were in contact while filming MAFS.
However, Tim denied such comments to Yahoo Lifestyle.
“The only person I was romantically involved with during the experiment was Sara, which is more than I can say about others,” he said before adding “there will be a cheating scandal later in the season.”
Recent paparazzi images obtained by Woman’s Day also showed Jonathan McCullough – wed to Lauren Dunn – and Ellie Dix – wed to Ben Walters – kissing at the beach on the Gold Coast.
Both relationships have been under fire on MAFS, but to viewers, it seemed Jonathan and Lauren were finally on the right track – so, where did it all go wrong?
Unfortunately for curious fans, it remains unclear at to how and when Ellie and Jonathan’s romance began. Stay tuned!
