We’re not even through the first week of Married At First Sight 2025 (MAFS), and it’s already pretty evident that there’s a (TV) divorce on the cards between Eliot Donovan and Lauren Hall.
While Eliot and Lauren’s wedding went relatively well, the couple butted heads during their honeymoon, with Eliot claiming that Lauren was too “superficial” for him because she had luxury luggage. On the second day of the honeymoon, Eliot packed his (non-designer) bags and left, and it didn’t look like he was coming back.
So, is it the end of the road for Lauren and Eliot on MAFS? Apparently not, but read on at your own risk because there are spoilers galore.
MAFS’ Eliot Donavan’s new wife
MAFS’ Eliot made it clear that he was upset that he was paired with someone older than him — Lauren is 37 and he is 35. The business owner repeatedly told producers that he was hoping to be paired with someone in their 20s.
Luckily for Eliot, leaked photos of his new bride appear to show that his wish was granted. Well, almost.
As reported by Daily Mail Australia, Eliot’s new bride will be 30-year-old intruder and Miss Universe finalist Veronica Cloherty.
Veronica has been in a selection of short films, including Streets of Colour in 2023, and was a Miss Universe Australia National Finalist in 2016 and 2019.
However, it won’t necessarily be a happy ending for Eliot, as sources have told the publication that she’s a “high-maintenance diva” who’s using the show to advance her career.
MAFS’ Lauren Hall’s new husband
Lauren will also get a second chance at love! According to Daily Mail Australia, she will be marrying intruder Clint Rice.
Clint is a professional golfer who’s recently ended a long-term relationship. A source told the publication that he is “super chill and down to earth”.
Could he be end game for Lauren? We’ll just have to wait and see.
Married At First Sight 2025 airs Sundays at 7pm and Monday – Wednesday at 7:30pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
