Married At First Sight: Jono reveals he’s already moved on with new love

HE WENT through a messy breakup on national TV last night, but this morning Married At First Sight contestant Jono reveals he’s already moved on.

MARRIED At First Sight contestant Jono has revealed he’s already moved on with a new love, the morning after ditching his new bride on national television.

Jono and Clare’s short-lived union came to a spectacular end in last night’s episode of the show, as the pair broke up at dinner while their fellow contestants watched on.

It appeared their marriage was doomed from the start, when 28-year-old Jono first caught sight of his bride-to-be and announced, “Wow, not what I ordered.”

We’re sad these two crazy kids couldn’t work things out.

“That actually wasn’t going through my head when I turned around and looked down the aisle. I actually turned around and though, ‘Wow, am I really doing this?’ But I wasn’t disappointed at all. I was rapt. Like I said, she’s a gorgeous, amazing, awesome, kind-hearted woman … just not normally what I’d go for,” Jono said during an interview on Today this morning when asked about the gaffe.

But he insisted he wouldn’t change what he said: “I don’t regret it.”

Jono also refuted rumours that he had cheated during the pair’s honeymoon, saying that talk of unfaithfulness was “so far from the truth”.

“I received a happy birthday message from someone I’ve been seeing in the past. If that’s cheating on your partner, receiving a birthday message ...”

‘Not what I ordered’ is not the best thing to say when meeting your bride for the first time.

While Jono asserts that he was 100 per cent single when he agreed to appear on the show, he is currently seeing somebody — and he confirms it’s someone he knew before his ill-fated reality TV stint.

There has been tabloid speculation that the girl in question is Melbourne woman Rachael Baxter, as the pair have appeared in numerous pictures together across each other’s social media accounts in recent weeks.

Jono’s mum was also on hand to refute claims that he’s a ‘Mummy’s boy’, after it was revealed on the show that she does all his washing. She revealed that she’s been battling cancer and her son has been a daily source of strength and support.

“He’s always been a loving and caring person who’d do anything for his family. The reason I did his washing was because when I was sick, it was something for me to do to keep my mind off things.”
