Married At First Sight groom Tony Mojanovski has been spotted in a cosy embrace with a female friend, after his split from TV wife Morena Farina.
The 53-year-old reality TV star was seen in Sydney at an event for the show’s grooms, radiating joy while posing with popular Australian influencer Just Jennie.
Their tender display included Tony’s arm wrapped around her waist while she hugged him affectionately around the neck.
In another snapshot, Tony enthusiastically embraced her alongside fellow cast members, including Ryan Donnelly.
The pair appeared to be great friends as they strolled along together while hanging off one another’s shoulders and giggling.
While the pair are just friends, the outing has made it clear that Tony isn’t dwelling on the past and is already moving on with his life in style.
it comes after Tony’s wife Morena Farina, 57, made a dramatic exit from MAFS during a Commitment Ceremony.
The DJ initially looked like she was a no-show before coming on to the set as Tony sat on the couch explaining why their marriage has not worked.
It was the first time Tony had seen her since the previous cast dinner party.
She was determined not to let Tony have the final say on their tumultuous relationship.
‘Did you really think I wasn’t gonna come?’ she asked as she strode into the room, turning heads.
‘Did you really think I was gonna give him the last word?’
Morena had been determined not to return to the show after the dinner party and Tony’s shock revelation that he wanted to father children at age 53.
She even told producers she would ring police if they did not let her return home.
‘They were holding me against my will. I told them, ‘I’m going to call the police – give me my phone’,’ Morena told Daily Mail Australia.
‘They put their hands up and acted innocent, saying, ‘No, we haven’t touched you.”
Morena eventually spoke to executives of the production company and was convinced to make a final appearance.
‘I had the big boss on the phone for a long time,’ she revealed.
‘They told me, ‘Are you really going to let Tony get away with everything he’s done to you? You know he’s married. He wanted his wife to come into the experiment.
‘He thinks you’re too old, calls you a sl**, even headlocks you.”
Morena eventually agreed to attend one final Commitment Ceremony—but with conditions.
‘I told them, ‘I’m not speaking to the experts. They’ve never had my back. I just need to confront Tony’,’ she explained.
‘They said, ‘Done. You can make a grand entry when Tony is on the couch and rip into him.”
The episode saw Morena storm onto the set while Tony was on the couch, delivering a brutal take-down of her on-screen husband before immediately storming out and not waiting for other couples’ turns on the couch.
During the confrontation, Morena exposed multiple secrets about Tony’s behaviour in the experiment, including his alleged desire to bring his estranged wife onto the show.
‘He suddenly changed his story and said it wasn’t about my age – it was because he wanted a baby,’ Morena said.
‘I grabbed his hand and told him, ‘Tony, if you wanted a baby, I would have let you go. I would never stop you.”
She added that some cast members, including Tony, were given preferential treatment, with her husband being allowed to return home to Wollongong every weekend.
