MAFS ‘villain’ Davina Rankin has tied the knot for real with fiancé Jaxon Manuel. The two got married on Saturday at Plantation House in Duranbah, NSW.
The reality star, who has also been on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, said her ‘I do’s with two-year-old daughter Mila-Mae by her side, serving as the flower girl.
The bride wore an A-line off the shoulder dress with a sweetheart neckline, which had a cut-out at the midriff and layers of fabric knotted at the bust.
She wore her hair down in soft waves framing her face and chose neutral glowing tones for her makeup palette, opting for a pink-toned nude lip colour.
Later in the evening, the MAFS star Davina Rankin changed into a lacy halterneck dress with a sheer skirt to continue the celebrations with her new hubby.
On the show, she ‘married’ Ryan Gallagher, but the two didn’t connect and split during filming.
Rankin was then caught up in a ‘cheating’ scandal with another MAFS contestant Dean Wells, who was paired with Tracey Jewel.

The show portrayed the two as having an ‘affair’ together, and Davina copped a lot of heat from MAFS viewers, but their romance did not last.
Wells said he ended the ‘affair’ with Rankin because the brunette was ‘too forward’ and acted like the two were already committed to each other, which he admits turned him off.
The star has also since changed her Instagram display name to DAVINA MANUEL, signifying her new marriage.
Rankin announced her engagement on her 30th birthday last year, posting the news to Instagram.
Flashing her ring to her 350+ thousand followers, she wrote, “I guess 30 isn’t looking too bad after all”.
