Married At First Sight bride Jamie Marinos breaks her silence on pregnancy speculation - amid romance rumours with co-star Eliot Donovan
Married At First Sight's Jamie Marinos has been forced to set the record straight after fans started speculating she might be pregnant. The 29-year-old reality star sparked baby rumours over the weekend after appearing in a gallery of snaps from Voir Vodka dinner at Bar Bambi in Melbourne, which she attended alongside her co-stars Eliot Donovan and Teejay Halkias. The images, shared by @mafsgossip, included a shot of Jamie posing with Eliot - who she has been romantically linked to in recent months - wearing a sleek all-black outfit which seemed to hint at a small bump. 'Is it me or does Jaime look like she's got a bump?' one fan commented, while another added, 'Just don't know if it's a baby bump or photo-shopped to look like it. But 100% it's a bump!' But Jamie wasted no time shutting down the speculation, jumping into the comments to address the chatter directly.

'I'm going to blame the lighting on that, because it does and I can assure you there's no bump,' she wrote, adding a laughing emoji. In another cheeky comment, the blonde beauty joked, 'Why am I excited now for a non-existent baby?' before confirming the 'countless' vodkas she consumed that night were proof enough she wasn't expecting. The MAFS star later doubled down, taking to her Instagram Stories to share the same photo and write: 'What in the optical illusion is this? I look like I have a baby bump.' She added: 'How funny would it be if at an event for an alcohol brand I announce a pregnancy, except it wouldn't be funny because I'd be pissed the f**k off that I'm sober.' Since the show wrapped in April, Jamie and Eliot have emerged as two of the most-followed cast members, regularly sparking dating rumours with their flirty comments, TikTok videos and joint appearances at events. Despite their undeniable chemistry, Jamie previously clarified their relationship during a Q&A with fans, insisting: 'We are really good friends. 'He's been such a great support system, always makes me laugh and I'm super grateful to have him around.' She added: 'We are both single, and focusing on ourselves at the moment – but who knows what the future holds.' The MAFS star later doubled down, taking to her Instagram Stories to share the same photo and write: 'What in the optical illusion is this? I look like I have a baby bump' Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, Jamie and Eliot echoed that sentiment, saying they've struck up an 'unlikely friendship' post-show and are simply 'taking each day as it comes'. The pair first sparked romance rumours after attending Daily Mail Australia's reunion party in April. 'Jamie is an absolute babe and I would be very lucky to be in a romantic relationship with her... but at this point in time, we are just close friends,' he told 9Entertainment. 'I'm not in any kind of position to be navigating a romantic relationship but I wouldn't rule anything out. I am absolutely loving going on this journey with Jamie by my side.' Eliot spoke highly of his relationship with Jamie and said their friendship had grown since meeting during filming last year.

That's not a tissue! MAFS bride Beth makes X-rated discovery in her tights during morning walk with co-star Rhi Disljenkovic
Married At First Sight stars Beth Kelly and Rhi Disljenkovic found themselves in hysterics during a casual morning stroll in Melbourne. In footage shared to Instagram on Sunday, the reality brides were seen enjoying a walk when Beth suddenly stopped mid-conversation to address a strange sensation in her leg. 'There's literally something in my leg. I think it's a tissue. What is it?' Beth questioned, visibly confused, as she reached into her tights. To her shock - and Rhi's amusement - Beth pulled out a forgotten g-string that had somehow wedged itself in the lining of her leggings. Cue uncontrollable laughter from both women as they processed the bizarre find.

Rhi later reposted the moment to her Instagram Stories, captioning it: 'I am so glad I filmed this. I thought it was a tissue or possibly a sock. @ The sighting comes days after the popular English bride opened up about where she stands with ex-husband Teejay Halkias after cutting ties with him before Final Vows. The couple, who entered the experiment midway through the season, appeared to form a strong connection early on. But things took a turn when Teejay admitted he wasn't falling in love. Beth confirmed she ended the relationship off-camera and later avoided Teejay's attempts to reach out once they returned to their shared hometown of Brisbane. 'It's been a bit of a bumpy ride between us,' Beth told 9Entertainment. 'Watching it back was really difficult for me because I got feelings for someone who clearly didn't have any for me, and there was a bit of a rough patch where I ignored quite a few of his text messages,' she continued. Despite the tension, Beth said she decided to make peace and initiated a one-on-one catch up to clear the air. 'I invited him to my apartment, we had a conversation and I got everything off my chest and that felt really good,' she explained. 'It's quite hard to have a conversation like that, especially when you're so emotional'. 'But Teejay actually said to me, 'You're such a good person, you could have literally invited me over tonight and bit my head off and screamed and yelled at me and you just haven't'. I think that made him respect me even more.' The pair have since crossed paths at social events and group dinners with fellow cast members. 'Everything's fine. We don't hang out separately or one-on-one but obviously in a group environment. At the end of the day, we did go through that amazing experience together so we're always going to have that connection, you know?' Beth said. 'It's always going to feel familiar, we're always going to have that friendship.' Since filming wrapped, the salon manager has started dating again but says she isn't in a rush to find love. 'Even though I'd love to have a relationship I want to take some time to focus on me – but I have been on a few dates. I've definitely dipped my toe back into it. 'I'm not seeing anybody at the moment, but I'm definitely putting myself out there.'

Married At First Sight groom Teejay Halkias makes VERY surprising admission about his relationship with ex-wife Beth Kelly after series drama
Married At First Sight star Teejay Halkias has revealed he made a move to reconnect with his TV wife Beth Kelly after their dramatic breakup. The 29-year-old groom made the shock admission he felt compelled to check in on Beth, 28, once filming was over. 'I tried to reach out and make sure she was doing okay. I know she was pretty upset during the show,' he told 9Entertainment. 'She wanted to chat about a few things, so we had a chat and that was that. We had a long conversation, it was good.' While the reunion wasn't romantic, Teejay said their relationship is now on friendly terms. 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. 'Things are obviously platonic between Beth and I. It won't be anything romantic... but amicable,' he said. 'If we see each other out we'll speak to each other and whatnot, but I wouldn't say we're best friends.' It comes after Beth dramatically ended her relationship with Teejay just days before the couple were due to face one another at Final Vows. In March, the hair salon manager from the Gold Coast made the heartbreaking decision to walk away from the experiment after weeks of feeling rejected by her TV husband. Beth blindsided viewers and Teejay alike by calling it quits as the pair packed up their belongings at the eleventh hour, following an emotional fallout at the final dinner party. Breaking down in tears, Beth confessed: 'That conversation [at the Dinner Party] has made me feel so s**t. 'It's obvious he doesn't want me, doesn't want this relationship, and I can't go to Final Vows and stand in front of someone that I've had feelings for, confess that I wanted a future with them, for them to tell me that again.' Visibly upset, she added: 'I don't see a future with you. I'm not gonna put my energy into it. I'm not wasting my time anymore. Oh God, I'm so sick of crying'. The brunette beauty, who wore minimal makeup and a simple white tank top as she sobbed during the emotional scene, reflected on how far they had fallen from the promising start of their relationship. 'I genuinely thought that we would walk out of this experiment together,' she said. 'I thought we were perfectly matched and now from going from that to where we are… it's so sad it didn't work out.' Beth's shock decision came just days after she sat down with Daily Mail Australia to reveal the real reason behind her choice to quit the experiment early. She admitted she reached breaking point after Teejay, a business development manager from Melbourne, repeatedly made it clear he wasn't invested in their relationship. 'My reason for leaving was purely because Teejay wrote 'leave.' He was obviously completely checked out,' Beth said. 'I don't think you can tell a person you don't wanna be with them any more than that.' The fiery brunette admitted she initially tried to salvage their relationship but eventually realised she was 'chasing someone who didn't want me'.

Eliot quipped that he was pulling a 'Jacqui and Clint', alluding to Jacqui Burfoot and Clint Rice's engagement at a reunion viewing party last month.
