Michael confesses he’d only watched two episodes of MAFS before his friends convinced him to apply. And he’s definitely in it for the right reasons.

“I think a lot of people out there are sort of in this to promote a protein powder or teeth whitening, that’s not me, do you know what I mean?” he told Channel Nine.

“One I don’t think I’m gonna be able to promote protein powder and two my teeth are already pretty white,” he joked.

Michael thinks his ex-girlfriend will be excited for him to be going on MAFS.
