The most recent Married At First Sight (MAFS) 2025 Dinner Party was explosive. Most of the drama involved the group calling out Ryan Donnelly for his cooked comments about Jacqueline Burfoot behind her back, and Morena Farina got pretty fired up.
When Paul Antoine tried to turn the heat on Morena, mentioning that he’d heard her yelling and slamming a door in a possible argument with her husband Tony Mojanovski, all hell broke loose. Morena pointed her finger at Paul and unleashed on him, calling him a “little boy”.
Paul’s wife Carina Mirable sat shellshocked as the drama unfolded, but she tells Chattr her biggest regret is that she didn’t get involved.
“I actually wish I could go back in time and speak up for my husband and just have his back a little bit more,” she admits. ”I was kind of caught in the middle of it and I was just listening to what was out playing in front of me.”
“It was pretty brutal how she spoke to Paul, and I think he really tried to get his view across… what he heard is what he heard. And it was very evident that she was not in a very good place with Tony and in her relationship.”
Carina adds that there was nothing wrong with Paul questioning Morena and Tony’s relationship because he did hear her yelling and slamming a door.
“I think her reaction and pointing the finger at him was just a bit uncalled for and unnecessary. I think she can be a little bit blindsided by her old traditional mindset,” she says.
Carina thinks Tony isn’t the villain Morena makes him out to be
Carina also tells Chattr that Morena doesn’t “understand anyone else’s point of view”, and that it’s “her way or the highway”.
The bride mentions she tried to convey the acts of kindness Tony was making to Morena, but she didn’t listen.
“I was trying to come from a place of you know, Tony bought your kids flights, and it’s only been what, two weeks in? That’s a form of love language that he’s reflecting on to you, that he’s trying to show that he’s showing up for you,” she recalls.
“How can you not see the positiveness in that? But yet, I feel like Morena was seeing the negative in a lot of things that Tony was trying to implement in their love life.”
This comes after a former MAFS post producer said that Tony doesn’t seem “entirely innocent”, but condemned Morena’s behaviour in a scathing TikTok.
Morena will surely continue to pipe up and spill more info about what went on behind the scenes, so we’ll have to see what happens next!
