The new season of Married At First Sight has been full of drama, but the biggest scandal took place after filming wrapped in December.
Sources tell Daily Mail Australia that an unlikely boyfriend was recently involved in a secret date with another man’s ‘wife’.
Sydney-based publicity director Josh White, who is ‘married’ to sex-obsessed hairdresser Melissa Sheppard on Channel Nine, flew to Perth for a romantic weekend with accountant Lyndall Grace from 26-29 from January.
This will surprise viewers because Lyndall, who has cystic fibrosis, is paired in the experiment with Northern Territory carpenter Cam Woods, and their wholesome romance has won hearts across Australia.
Things didn’t work out between Lyndall and Cam on the show and they broke up before the end. Similarly, Josh and Melissa broke up halfway through filming.
