Married At First Sight Australian groom Richard Sauerman has found solace in the most unlikely place following his split from bride Andrea Thompson.
The motivational speaker, 61, was licking his wounds with former MAFS villain Harrison Boon at Coogee Pavilion after Sunday night’s episode aired.
In a tear-filled commitment ceremony, the show’s eldest groom to date chose to leave Andrea, 51, after failing to get their romance back on track.
It looks like the reality star got some advice from season 10’s most hated groom, while Harrison, 33, got some quality time with his son August, four.
Richard dug into his ever-growing scarf collection and pulled out a red number for his night out on the town, teamed with a black singlet.

It comes after MAFS fans came across Richard following Sunday night’s Commitment Ceremony after he and wife Andrea agreed on a time for their TV wedding.

After enduring weeks of tension and mismatched feelings with Andrea, it was clear that Australia had had enough of Richard’s antics, and viewers took to social media to vent.
“You win some, you lose some, I guess,” one fan wrote on X.
“Richard is just as bad as Jack, he just got away with his victimhood and BS tears,” wrote another.
He completed his look with khaki shorts and brown boots, and donned his signature black-rimmed glasses.

“I’m going to miss Andrea, she was so sweet, but I’m really glad Richard is leaving with that filthy, gross scarf collection,” said another.
“Richard and Andrea are a perfect example of why you shouldn’t have sex with someone you don’t know,” wrote another.
Elsewhere, others questioned Richard’s responsibility.

“My question is, why isn’t anyone calling Richard out for the way he turned Andie on to the point where he lashed out and doubled over to make her feel bad while using her trauma as a weapon against her?” wrote one fan.
“Richard still can’t understand why Andi didn’t like him because he showed her things about herself that she didn’t like and HIS EGO can’t handle that,” another added.
Speak with 9Entertainment After their departure, Andrea said: ‘There wasn’t one problem with Richard, it was a few things and I tried to get through it.
“It was one thing after another and I think Richie just got frustrated because he wanted what we had.”
One of those “little things” was during Intimacy Week, when Richard “was very vocal about (their) sex life in a pretty harsh way.”
