MAFS star looks unrecognisable years before show stint as she appeared on TV for very different reason
MARRIED At First Sight Australia fans have gone wild after realising one bride looked completely unrecognisable years before her show stint.
Jamie Marinos, 28, who is currently starring in the Nine Network show, once appeared on the same channel for a very different reason.
The former store manager was interviewed on Nine News after a robbery happened at her workplace, and images from that broadcast have now reappeared on Reddit.
Under a forum titled, “Jamie on the news a few years back?” fans picked each other’s brains on the development.
One wrote: “Looks so much better,” while another said: “I don’t care how she looks, I flipping love her!!!”
A third chimed in with: “Shes such a darling. Love this girl.”
Jamie, who is paired with builder Dave Hand, 36, has gone down a fan favourite this series.
An explosive row with groom Tim Smith saw him storm out of a recent dinner party in explosive scenes.
Tim, 51, made the dramatic exit after being called out by bride Jamie Marinos for portraying himself as a “nice guy” despite his behaviour towards his wife, Katie Johnstone, 37.
His claim that he was the only one putting effort into the relationship sparked fresh anger from Jamie.
She had fumed: “I feel like I’m going to lose my mind in there. Am I the only one seeing what’s going on in there?”
Fellow bride Carina Mirabile joined in, agreeing that something was off.
She raged: “I can’t die on this hill charging this motherf****r all night, someone’s gotta back me.”
At that point, Tim had enough, storming out of the dinner party while shouting, “F**k, I’m sick of this s**t.”
The dramatic moment came on the heels of Tim’s previous behavior, which sparked outrage among fans.
He’s even been branded MAFS Australia‘s “most hated groom” following some cruel comments to his bride.
Viewers were left fuming after watching the primary school teacher brutally reject Katie.
Fans watched in horror as Tim raged at producers that Katie “wasn’t his type”, just seconds after they were married.
Ever since then, he has refused to give his bride the time of day.
