Guess Who! Popular Married at First Sight star looks unrecognisable in throwback primary school photo
A popular Married At First Sight bride has been spotted in a Sydney primary school photo from 1999.
One MAFS viewer, who goes by the handle @boganbarbie1 on TikTok, shared her shock after realising she had attended Mount Annan Public School alongside the reality TV star.
In the old class photo, the season 12 bride is sitting perched in the middle of the front row with her hands clasped together and a wide smile.
Her brunette locks are pulled into a high ponytail and she matches her classmates in the primary school's blue and white checkered dress and red bow-tie uniform.
In bold print writing at the bottom of the photo is the name Rhiannon Disljenkovic.

A popular Married At First Sight bride has been spotted front-and-centre in a Sydney primary school photo from 1999. Can you guess who it is?
'Hang on a second. How is it that I only just found out today that Rhi from MAFS is Rhi Disljenkovic from f**king primary school?' she said in the video.
'I literally went to school with her!' she exclaimed, before pointing out herself in the class photo.
The TikTok ForYou page algorithm quickly helped the post find several of Rhi's old school friends on the app.
'Aww there's me front and centre!' another person commented, writing: 'I was besties with Rhiannon. I don't watch TV so never knew about her being on TV lol. So cool to see this photo!'
Meanwhile, the woman who made the video said that from what she can remember, Rhi was 'popular' in school and was 'a very nice girl with time for anyone.'
Rhi and her MAFS husband Jeff Gobbels emerged from season 12 of Married At First Sight as the only successful match from the reality TV 'experiment' in 2025.
The Melbourne-based couple, who moved in together after the series ended, even dropped some shock baby news during the final episode of the show.
They were discussing their relationship with series expert Mel Schilling and confirmed children were in their future.

'I'm on my way to falling in love. I would have never in a million years picked this, it is actually a cool story...' Rhi told Mel.
'...To tell your kids!' Mel jumped in.
Rhi agreed with her, confirming the pair were considering having children.
'That's it! I was about to say that,' she said.
Jeff then thanked the experts for matching him with Rhi and said one of the secrets to the success was the great timing, which was 'everything'.
In April, the pair were as loved-up as ever as they attended Daily Mail Australia's exclusive MAFS reunion dinner party in Sydney.
The couple were by each other's side for most of the night, and held hands and stared into each other's eyes at the dinner table.
Their fellow cast members collectively told Daily Mail Australia the pair are the 'real deal' and have loved seeing their romance unfold and prosper outside of the experiment.

They added they are 'incredibly cute' and their chemistry is 'undeniable'.
During an exclusive interview, Rhi and fellow bride Beth Kelly revealed which couple 'is most likely' to actually marry.
'Rhi and Jeff!' Beth said, while Rhi added 'Me!!'
The couple, who melted hearts during their Final Vows when they chose to stay together, have revealed what's next for their blossoming relationship and shut down swirling engagement rumours.
Rhi and Jeff – who were matched on the show by experts who had no idea they had previously dated each other briefly - said the key to their success was emotional maturity and good communication.
