Vanessa Romito, a bride on Married at First Sight (MAFS) 2020, claimed she had a “one-night stand” with 2025 groom Paul Antoine and didn’t speak favourably of the experience.
“I had a one-night stand with Paul,” Vanessa exclusively revealed to Chattr.
Vanessa Romito’s date with Paul Antoine
Vanessa told Chattr that she met Paul on a night out.
“Paul was literally a one-night stand on Halloween that I never wanted to speak to again.”
“He was full of himself. The next morning, he was like, ‘I’ll call you,’ and I was like, ‘Oh, I’d rather you don’t.'”
Vanessa added that when she saw Paul out after the hook-up, “he would just stand there talking to his friends in French about me.”
What Vanessa thinks of Paul being cast on MAFS 2025
Vanessa said that she wasn’t surprised to hear that her past flame had been cast on MAFS 2025.
“I can’t even speak for the women; they [producers], literally, just find the worst men,” she said.
“[Paul’s] not a bad-looking person. Of course he’s going to get female viewers.”
It’s not the first time Paul’s personal life has had a MAFS crossover, either.
At his own MAFS wedding, it was revealed that Carina Mirable and Paul had been on a date before the show, but he’d ghosted her.
Then, in a recent episode, it was also revealed that Paul had a situationship with Awhina’s twin sister, Cleo, before starring on the show.
Cleo told Chattr that she and Paul are on good terms and “still close with one another’s friends to this day”.
Married At First Sight 2025 airs Sundays at 7pm and Monday – Wednesday at 7:30pm on Channel 9 and 9Now.
