Forgotten Married At First Sight groom reemerges for the first time in years after his TV bride Belinda Vickers announced real-life engagement
Former Married At First Sight groom Patrick Dwyer has resurfaced with a striking new look after retreating from the spotlight for years. The reality star, who appeared on season eight of the hit Channel Nine dating show in 2021, was spotted on Instagram this week looking barely recognisable as he enjoyed a summer holiday in the UK. Taking to his Stories on Thursday, the personal trainer shared a sunburnt selfie alongside the caption: 'Of course I would get burnt in the UK.' Fans were quick to notice that Patrick, who once sported a geeky hairstyle and shy demeanour on the show, looks worlds away from his MAFS persona. He now has more rugged style, sporting a short quiff and well-groomed facial hair. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. His surprise return to social media comes after his TV bride Belinda Vickers made headlines by announcing her real-life engagement to wealthy businessman Hayden Burbank. Patrick and Belinda were a quirky fan favourite during their time on MAFS. Viewers still remember one of the more memorable scenes from Intimacy Week where Patrick prepared a bubble bath to help build a physical connection with his shy bride. What started as a romantic gesture quickly turned awkward when Patrick began massaging Belinda's feet in the tub. 'Maybe I'll give you a little foot massage,' he said as he rubbed her toes, before complimenting her pedicure: 'Oh, I love your feet. Very clean, I like the little pink toenails you've got on you.' Following his stint on the show, Patrick quietly faded from the public eye, switching his social media accounts to private and steering clear of reality TV circles. But he didn't disappear without making a few changes – including a dramatic $28,000 dental makeover courtesy of celebrity dentist Dr Deepan Duraisamy, better known as Dr Dee. Patrick received 12 of the dentist's famous Picasso Porcelain Veneers and told Daily Mail Australia at the time, 'I didn't realise how bad my teeth were until I saw them on TV.' Meanwhile, Belinda told Daily Mail Australia that she will be walking down the aisle for real next year with wealthy businessman Hayden Burbank He opted for a natural-looking set of teeth to suit his new image, and before-and-after photos showed just how much the transformation boosted his confidence. Meanwhile, Belinda told Daily Mail Australia that she will be walking down the aisle for real next year. The couple celebrated their engagement at a lavish party in Melbourne back in April. They both shared a series of photos to social media as they danced and posed with friends and family at the private party. Guests were treated to an array of cocktails while violinists played music at the lavish home. The pair announced their engagement back in February last year, telling Daily Mail Australia that Hayden's unique Valentine's Day proposal included a treasure hunt at the Botanical Gardens. Hayden, who is the former owner of swanky Melbourne hotspot Morris Jones, added his proposal caught the attention of the public, who burst into applause after Belinda said yes and accepted his dazzling engagement ring.

Farmer Wants A Wife Spoiler: Farmer Jack's final pick LEAKED as season comes to an end
The sun is setting on the 15th season of Farmer Wants A Wife, but there's still time for a few spoilers. Dairy farmer Jack, 26, may have been the newcomer, but he's been decisive from day dot, whittling down eight potential matches down to two - Olivia and Sarah - quicker than you can milk an udder. Now insiders have 'leaked' who has won Jack's heart. While Olivia's chemistry with the farmer at the black tie party was undeniable, Jack had his eyes on Sarah from the get-go, taking her on the first 24-hour date. According to a FWAW insider, it seems the 29-year-old personal assistant is Jack's final choice. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'Farmer Jack's final pick is Sarah, apparently,' the source told Chattr. While past seasons have ended with heartwarming updates and countryside lovebirds riding off into the sunset, this year's reunion promises fireworks, behind-the-scenes truths, and a few very awkward catch-ups. Unlike MAFS, the FWAW reunion will only feature the couples who made it to the end together. And the reunion - hosted by returning favourite Natalie Gruzlewski - won't just be a cosy catch-up. While it will centre on the successful couples, fans can expect more raw honesty and awkward admissions than ever before. 'I heard it was just the successful couples talking about whether they've moved or plan to move. Everyone was together at that stage as far as I've been told,' one insider told Chattr. However, Daily Mail Australia can reveal that producers are planning to include some of the biggest behind-the-scenes dramas in the special - including what really happened on Tom's farm. 'Producers were lovely, Tom wasn't,' a cast member told Chattr. 'He kept saying he didn't want to lead anyone on, but led everyone on except Georgie. It was clear as day. 'There were tears, there were walkouts. This wasn't your usual Farmer reunion – it felt more like a MAFS wrap party with pitchforks.' Farmer Wants A Wife continues Monday at 7.30pm on Channel 7.

Surviving Beach Boys pay tribute to ‘genius' Brian Wilson
The surviving original members of the Beach Boys have paid tribute to the 'genius' of Brian Wilson after his death aged 82. His cousin Mike Love, 84, said Wilson's 'musical gifts were unmatched' while Al Jardine described his bandmate as 'my brother in spirit'. Wilson was the eldest and last surviving of the three brothers who formed the American rock band with Love and school friend Jardine in 1961. 'The melodies he dreamed up, the emotions he poured into every note – Brian changed the course of music forever,' Love wrote in a lengthy post on Facebook, saying there was 'something otherworldly' about Wilson. 'Like all families, we had our ups and downs. But through it all, we never stopped loving each other, and I never stopped being in awe of what he could do when he sat at a piano or his spontaneity in the studio.' Describing Wilson as 'fragile, intense, funny' and 'one of a kind', he said his music 'allowed us to show the world what vulnerability and brilliance sound like in harmony'. 'Brian, you once asked 'Wouldn't it be nice if we were older?' Now you are timeless,' he wrote. Posting a picture of himself with Wilson on Facebook, Jardine, 82, said: 'I will always feel blessed that you were in our lives as long as you were'. 'You were a humble giant who always made me laugh and we will celebrate your music forever.' On Wednesday, Wilson's family said in a statement to his website: 'We are heartbroken to announce that our beloved father Brian Wilson has passed away. We are at a loss for words right now. Please respect our privacy at this time as our family is grieving.' Sir Elton John posted on Instagram, saying Wilson was 'always so kind to me' and 'the biggest influence on my songwriting ever'. 'He was a musical genius and revolutionary,' he wrote. 'He changed the goalposts when it came to writing songs and changed music forever. A true giant.' Bob Dylan was among other musical stars to pay tribute, the 84-year-old posting on X that he was thinking 'about all the years I've been listening to him and admiring his genius'. Fellow singer-songwriter Carole King, 83, described Wilson as 'my friend and my brother in songwriting' while former Velvet Underground member John Cale said on X he was 'a true musical genius toiling away at melding POP into startling sophistication'. Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood, 78, paid tribute to Wilson and US musician Sly Stone, who died earlier this week, in a social media post, saying: 'Oh no Brian Wilson and Sly Stone in one week – my world is in mourning, so sad.' His bandmate Keith Richards, 81, posted an extract of his 2010 memoir, Life, on Instagram recalling hearing The Beach Boys for the first time on the radio and his reaction to their 1966 album Pet Sounds. The extract reads: 'When we first got to American and to LA, there was a lot of Beach Boys on the radio, which was pretty funny to us – it was before Pet Sounds – it was hot rod songs and surfing songs, pretty lousily played, familiar Chuck Berry licks going on… 'It was later on, listening to Pet Sounds, well, it's a little bit overproduced for me, but Brian Wilson had something.' Sean Ono Lennon, the son of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, described Wilson as 'our American Mozart' in a post on X while The Monkees drummer Micky Dolenz said 'his melodies shaped generations, & his soul resonated in every note'. Wilson was born on June 20 1942, and began to play the piano and teach his brothers to sing harmony as a young boy. The Beach Boys started as a neighbourhood act, rehearsing in Wilson's bedroom and in the garage of their house in suburban Hawthorne, California with Wilson playing bass alongside his brothers Dennis as the drummer and Carl on lead guitar. The band were managed by the trio's father, Murry Wilson, but by mid-decade he had been displaced and Brian, who had been running the band's recording sessions almost from the start, was in charge. They released their most recognised album, Pet Sounds, in May 1966 which included the popular songs Wouldn't It Be Nice and God Only Knows. Wilson married singer Marilyn Rovell in 1964 and the couple welcomed daughters Carnie and Wendy, whom he became estranged from following their divorce. He later reconciled with them and they sang together on the 1997 album The Wilsons, which was also the name of a music group formed by Carnie and Wendy following the break-up of pop vocal group Wilson Phillips. Wilson, who had dealt with mental health and drug problems, got his life back on track in the 1990s and married talent manager Melinda Ledbetter. When Ledbetter died last year, Wilson said their five children, Daria, Delanie, Dylan, Dash and Dakota, were 'in tears'. Wilson was also embroiled in multiple lawsuits some of which followed from the release of his 1991 autobiography, Wouldn't It Be Nice: My Own Story. The Beach Boys were inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1988 and received a Lifetime Achievement Grammy Award in 2001. Wilson's brother Dennis died in 1983 while Carl died in 1998.
