All the times the MAFSAU s12 cast have thrown shade at each other - from sly comments to cheeky interviews
Season 12 of Married At First Sight Australia might be over, but the shade has not stopped.
Since the series wrapped on E4 earlier this month, the cast have been shading each other left, right, and centre, whether on their social media accounts or in official interviews.
Honestly, there's been enough shade to start a whole rainforest!
Jacqui Burfoot and Ryan Donnelly's marriage didn't last on the show, and Jacqui is now engaged to Clint Rice, who was with Lauren Hall (please keep up).
Viewers are well aware that the pair are no longer on speaking terms, alhough Jacqui and Clint have been making some indirects (which seem to be aimed at Ryan) on social media...
Then, there's Veronica Cloherty and Lauren, who've been shading their exes, Eliot and Clint.
Read on to see some of the digs the MAFSAU cast have made at each other since the show ended.
Who is she throwing shade at? Eliot
Veronica has been making veiled references to "lustful losers who lie and cheat" on her Instagram and recently captioned a post: "When they no longer have control over you they will try and control how others see you."
She didn't name any names, but it's pretty clear someone has got under her skin.
She was a lot more vocal about Eliot in an interview with Glamour, saying: "[Eliot] would do things like praise me for keeping the apartment clean and for being super low-maintenance, but never asked me a personal question about my career, about my aspirations, about what's important to me."
Who is she throwing shade at? Clint
During season 12, Lauren said that she didn't think Clint was "alpha enough", and since filming ended, she's been making a few digs at her ex.
In an interview with Glamour, she revealed that instead of working on "businesses that he wanted to start", Clint would be "would be fluffing around, folding my G-strings into little triangles."
She added that she didn't think he was "innately masculine" and referred to a time when filming ran late and Clint didn't speak up to the producers.
"I said to Clint, 'That's not okay - are you going to say anything about that?' He was like, 'Oh no, it's fine. We'll be alright.' And I was like, 'No, it's your job to protect us…' But he just wouldn't. He was just, like, go with the flow, everything's fine. So I felt that I was always the one being the man in the relationship," she explained.
Who is she shading? Ryan
Jacqui's been throwing shade at Ryan to be honest. On the show, she questioned him about his beard not being manly enough and asked him why he didn't want to be "great".
And the digs haven't stopped since the show ended.
She captioned a photo "real men buy flowers", she's been calling Clint her "great man" on social media, and she recently made a video while walking round Clint's Tasmanian mansion with Gladdest's song "Done With Your Ex" playing in the background.
If you're not familiar with the lyrics, Gladdest sings: "If you're done with your ex, move onto the next. If you're done with your ex... The only ex I want is ex-tra money, no extra stress, no extra worries."
Who is he shading? Ryan
Clint isn't a big fan of his fiance's ex, and he's made that pretty clear on his socials.
In a video posted to his social media account, the 44-year-old was seen strolling around his Tasmanian estate. He then looked proudly at his Porsche Macan.
He captioned the clip: "POV: He wanted to be great" in reference to what Jacqui had said to Ryan on the show.
Who is she shading? Jacqui
Awhina Rutene and Jacqui are no longer cool. It all started when Awhina said that she thought Jacqui should have been matched with her ex Adrian Araouzou.
When asked by a fan who she'd put together, Awhina replied alongside a picture of her and he son: "Adrian & Jacqui period."
A MAFS fan then forwarded the whole thing to Jacqui and she's since clapped back, saying: "I feel sorry for her. And with her son in the picture?"
She added: "And if speaking my truth, standing up for what I believe in and pursuing justice rubs people the wrong way - whatever - it is what it is - I don't care - that's none of my business. I genuinely couldn't care less."
Who is he throwing shade at? Jamie
It looked like Dave Hand could be making a sly dig at his ex Jamie Marinos. When asked by fans what he thought of her close relationship with Eliot Donovan and if they were really together, Dave replied: "I wholly doubt she's going to sleep with three cast members from this year's season," as Jamie dated Teejay Halkias before the show and was "married" to him.
Who are they throwing shade at? Could be anyone at this rate
Jamie and Eliot were majorly indirecting one of their cast members in a recent TikTok video. In the clip posted to Jamie's account, the pair can been seen laughing with the text: "Bestied so hard they blocked us both" written on the clip.
One fan was quick to comment on the video referencing their exes: "Bye Dave! Bye Veronica!" with laughing emojis.
Jamie has revealed that she no longer speaks to Dave, so could her ex be the one she's indirecting here?
Married At First Sight is available to stream on Channel4.com.

Cardi B Hard Launches Her Relationship With NFL Star Stefon Diggs
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." Everything is coming up roses for Cardi B. Over the weekend, the 'Up' singer posted photos and videos of the massive bouquets of flowers that were delivered to her home, in the same slideshow where she confirmed a new romance that is also sweetening her life. In the past few months, there have been rumors that Cardi was in a relationship with NFL player Stefon Diggs, following her divorce filing from Offset last July. Now, she has finally confirmed the new romance. Scroll ahead learn more about Stefon Diggs. In March 2025, Diggs signed a three-year deal with the New England Patriots for $63.5 million, where he will play as a wide receiver. At the time of his signing, Diggs had already been in the NFL for 10 seasons. When he graduated from the University of Maryland in 2014, he was signed the next year to the Minnesota Vikings as a fifth-round draft pick. He inked a four-year, $2.5 million deal, which he served out, before he was traded to the Buffalo Bills in 2020. Then, he stayed with the Bills for four years, before playing one season for the Houston Texans in 2024. Diggs has now joined the Patriots having played 144 regular season games with 857 receptions for 10,491 yards and 70 touchdowns. In 2020, he lead the league in receptions. He will make his debut for New England this coming fall. Stefon Diggs is a father to one—a daughter named Nova, who he welcomed in October 2016. The identity of Nova's mother is not publicly known, though some believe it to be Diggs's ex-girlfriend, the pop singer Tyler-Marie. While Diggs mostly keeps his personal life out of the spotlight, Nova has made a few notable appearances throughout the wide receiver's career. For instance, when he was signed to the Buffalo Bills, Nova sat on his lap for the ceremony, where she jokingly quoted the iconic Jerry Maguire line 'show me the money' to the Bills general manager Brandon Beane, as seen in the clip above. Other times, the adorable little one has been seen running on the field with her dad after games and cheering from the stands, all while sporting jerseys with his name. Take one scroll through Diggs's Instagram account and you'll see all kinds of street style looks and tunnel fits, each defined by the football player's affinity for neon colors, eye-popping prints, and statement footwear. Diggs has displayed a strong fashion sense for years now, even making his Met Gala debut at the 2023 event, and returning the following two years, including this year to support the 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style' theme. In a 2024 GQ interview, the wide receiver said, 'My mom told me that a girl always pays attention to your shoes and your smile... I got my own swag. I don't try to be like anybody else.' That love of fashion has translated to front-row appearances at fashion shows, and even the development of his own brand, called Liem, which sells luxury graphic tees, denim, leather, and stylish sportswear. Diggs isn't the only member of the family who's played for the NFL. In fact, the Patriots player's younger brother, Trevon, is currently a cornerback for the Dallas Cowboys. And while he isn't part of the NFL, the pair's half-sibling, Mar'Sean, played college football at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. His love of football started with his father, who passed away when he was only 14. As noted in an article from The Athletic, Diggs's dad wanted to see his sons play their best, so he enrolled them in the sport when they were young, and even had them doing things like living-room pushups whenever commercials would come on the TV. To this day, Diggs has a tattoo on his right wrist that says: 'RIP DAD.' Back in 2018, he shared a picture of it to his Instagram, with a caption that read: 'I miss you now more than ever... just wish you was here to see your sons. We love you. Still going hard for the last name ❤️ SCREAMING HAPPY GDAY POPS.. the [realest].' On June 1, 2025, Cardi B went public with her and Diggs's relationship, sharing a slideshow of photos which included one of her and the Patriots player getting cuddly on a boat, while a video saw Cardi dancing on Diggs. In another cheeky moment, the 'WAP' singer also shared a shot of her wrapped up in a furry shawl, which appeared to be the exact same one Diggs wore on Met Gala night. In her caption, she wrote: 'Chapter 5 ……Hello Chapter six.' Rumors of the pair's relationship first swirled in the fall of 2024, when the two were spotted at a New York City nightclub together, per a report from TMZ. Further speculation ensued when the couple went out to dinner in Miami on Valentine's Day. A couple of months later, a video circulated that saw Cardi dancing on the wide receiver. And this past May, they were seen sitting courtside together at a New York Knicks game, making their first public appearance as a pair.
