Married At First Sight’S Eliot And Awhina Put On A Friendly Display As They Go To An Arcade Before She Packs On The PDA With Groom Adrian

Married At First Sight’s Eliot Donovan put on a friendly display with Awhina Rutene as he joined his co-stars for a fun night out in Sydney.

The Queensland businessman, 35, was spotted laughing and spending time with the bride ahead of his exit from the show.

Eliot, who is set to leave for a second time, wrapped his arm around Awhina as he visited an arcade with the bride, her ‘husband’ Adrian Araouzou and Paul Antoine.

Awhina kept it sporty yet trendy, showing off her toned legs in black bike shorts and a white cropped top.

She layered it with a camel-hued blazer, which draped elegantly over her shoulders.

White sneakers kept her look comfortable, while her sleek, golden blonde hair flowed effortlessly as she walked.

Eliot exuded a laid-back yet polished look, wearing a white t-shirt layered under a light grey checkered blazer.

He paired it with tailored grey trousers and brown leather loafers, adding a touch of sophistication to his outfit.

His tousled hair and scruffy beard completed the effortlessly cool aesthetic.

Awhina’s husband Adrian opted for an understated yet edgy vibe, rocking an olive-green bomber jacket over a crisp white t-shirt.

He paired the look with slim black trousers and white sneakers, keeping his ensemble monochrome with a subtle pop of colour from his outerwear.

His dark curly hair and neatly groomed beard added to his rugged charm.

Meanwhile Paul channelled urban street style, sporting a fitted black t-shirt underneath a light grey bomber jacket.

His ripped, light-wash jeans added an edgy, contemporary touch, and he finished the look with white sneakers and a pair of trendy sunglasses.

His neatly groomed beard and slicked-back hair completed the effortlessly cool aesthetic.

They were seen arriving to the games centre before enjoying a round of bowling.

The MAFS stars were later getting competitive as they played a series of arcade games during the night out.

At one point, Awhina was spotted packing on the PDA with her groom Adrian at the front of the establishment.

She wrapped her arms around her TV husband as he gave her a kiss on her cheek.

It comes as Eliot’s reality TV journey is set to end in heartbreak for a second time.

Photos taken by Daily Mail Australia, show Eliot looking every inch the action hero as he strode down the street, flexing his bulging biceps in a fitted white singlet while wheeling two suitcases.

Sources close to production reveal that Eliot’s dramatic departure came after a fiery confrontation with Veronica during Feedback Week, which saw the couples swap partners for a fresh perspective on their relationships.

Tensions boiled over when Veronica admitted she felt more connected to Dave Hand, the ‘TikTok tradie’ she was paired with for the swap, rather than her own husband.

She gushed over Dave’s small but meaningful gestures, including clearing her plate after meals, while taking a thinly veiled dig at Eliot.

In a brutal honesty letter, Veronica laid bare her doubts about their marriage, confessing she was questioning whether she should have been matched with Eliot in the first place.

The final straw came when Eliot attempted to show his softer side by offering Veronica bone broth – only for her to dismiss the gesture and storm out of their apartment in frustration.

Insiders say Eliot was left ‘stunned’ by Veronica’s reaction.

‘He tried to take Rhi’s advice from the partner swap and make an effort, but Veronica wasn’t having any of it. He felt completely undermined,’ one source revealed.

It’s understood that following the explosive row, Eliot made the decision to pack his bags and leave the experiment for good.

His departure comes after weeks of turmoil in his on-screen marriage, which has been plagued by a lack of chemistry and Veronica’s growing doubts.

Viewers first suspected cracks in their relationship when Veronica was spotted looking visibly happier with Dave during the partner swap, confessing she felt more like ‘herself’ around him.

Meanwhile, Eliot’s attempt to bond with bride Rhi Disljenkovic, his swapped partner, seemed to give him newfound optimism about relationships – but it was too little, too late for his marriage with Veronica.
