Married at First Sight star Laura Vaughn’s secret boyfriend revealed – after ex Arthur’s ‘shock’ at new relationship
MARRIED At First Sight star Laura Vaughn’s hunky new boyfriend has finally been revealed.
We can exclusively reveal the reality star’s new man is Hayden Clottey – the head of sport at the same talent agency that represents her.
Mixing business with pleasure, Laura has been with high-flying Hayden for nearly a year.
The talent agent’s Instagram shows him rubbing shoulders with a host of stars from Usain Bolt and Harry Redknapp to Wayne Rooney and Declan Rice.
He’s also a bit of a jetsetter, visiting picturesque locations around the world from Paris to Barcelona and Marrakech.
Hayden’s also a pitchside regular at Premier League grounds from Wembley to Stamford Bridge and Villa Park.
MAFS viewers watched Laura and her TV hubby ex Arthur Poremba tie the knot in 2023.
But their union came to a dramatic end in the series finale when she gave her husband his ring back and walked away from their relationship.
The Sun was the first to reveal the former reality TV bride had moved on with a new romance, with a source telling us: “Laura is in a serious relationship with someone who makes her very happy.
“They’ve kept their relationship a secret for close to a year now, after meeting through the industry.”
Laura has spoken about her new love, which actually started a while ago.
“I’m happy to say that I’ve been in a relationship now for some time that I initially wanted to keep out of the spotlight,” she told MailOnline.
“I found sharing my love life on MAFS quite overwhelming at times so I’ve tried to keep this quite low key.”
She continued: “I wasn’t expecting to find love so soon after MAFS, I found dating really difficult after the show came out but I met my partner really organically through the industry and wouldn’t have met him if I hadn’t done MAFS so I ultimately have the show to thank for it!”
Making a dig at her ex, Laura said: “Things were never destined to work between Arthur and I, this relationship is much more suited.”
Meanwhile, Arthur has shared his surprise at the new relationship, saying he thought Laura would’ve told him first.
He told us: “It’s really weird because I actually met the guy at a football game last summer – it was Sutton FC for Paul Brunson’s team, so a few of us turned up to support him.
“She was with this guy and I kind of knew something was going on between them then, and they were obviously playing it clever as they weren’t romantic or anything with each other, but I just knew something was going on.
“I didn’t know why he was there at first, I thought perhaps he was a footballer or something.”
