This has been much speculation surrounding whether MAFS bride Tamara and groom Mitch have gotten together romantically since filming wrapped.
Now, Ella – who was paired with Mitch, on the show and left the final reunion in a committed relationship with him – has suggested that the reality stars may have been in a secret relationship before this season of MAFS even began filming.
During an appearance on HIT WA’s Allan & Carly radio show, Ella revealed that she believes Tamara and Mitch are dating.
‘The word is that they are together, and they have been for a while,” she said.
The 27-year-old added: “That’s what we’ve all been told. And the speculation is that it’s been going on for quite a long time, and potentially even before filming”.
“I’m just trying to put the pieces together myself.”
Though Ella and Mitch stayed together throughout the season of Married at First Sight, Mitch struggled to commit to his on-screen wife. At the final vows ceremony, he chose to break up with Ella, saying that he couldn’t commit “right now”.

However, in the time between the Final Vows and filming of the last Reunion Dinner Party and Reunion Finale, the couple revealed that they had gotten back together. But, the relationship didn’t last long, with Ella confirming that they broke up a month later.
During the same radio interview, Ella suggested that Tamara and Mitch’s secret relationship couldn’t be the reason for Mitch’s lack of commitment.
“I mean, it would make sense if they were kind of something this whole time, because no wonder Mitch wasn’t committed… it would make sense. I don’t even know the answers, and I don’t think we’ll ever get the answers,” she said.
While Mitch and Tamara haven’t publicly addressed whether they are dating, Ella was recently captured on video confirming that the pair had hooked up.
The clip was taken at a viewing party for the MAFS reunion. It showed a large viewing screen playing scene in which Brent accuses Tamara of messaging, and trying to seduce, Mitch behind Ella’s back. He says that Mitch denied Tamara’s advances.
“I got rejected by Mitch, are you for real?” Tamara asks Brent in the scene.
Ella can be heard in the screening room saying, “She’s like ‘are you for real’ because they’re actually fucking”.
Ella then went on to suggest that Tamara was asking Brent if he was “for real” about being rejected because Mitch hadn’t rejected her at all and they’d actually hooked up. “Are you for real because we’re fucking c*nt!” Ella said in a voice that appeared to be her mimicking Tamara.
