Married At First Sight star Awhina Rutene raised temperatures as she hit the beach on Rottnest Island in Perth over the weekend.
The mother-of-one showed off incredible figure in a red skimpy bikini as she strutted out of the water.
The sighting came just days before Awhina, 30, and her groom Adrian Araouzou, 30, stunned viewers during Sunday’s Final Vows after first saying they were ready to part ways, only to change their minds.
The aged care worker was spotted enjoying some fun in the sun with her twin sister Cleo.
While Adrian was nowhere to be seen, his presence still loomed large during the outing, with Awhina spotted still sporting her wedding ring.
The reality star showed off her ample cleavage in her ruby red bikini top that also featured gold embellishments.
Her matching high-cut bottoms also flaunted her toned legs.
The reality bride was positively beaming as she cooled off in the crystal clear water.
She looked to be having a great time, despite the fact that her prime-time paramour was not by her side.
Awhina was not working on her tan solo, however, as she was spotted with her sibling.
The pair could be seen having what looked to be a very deep and meaningful chat as they lay on beach towels on the sand.
They were possibly discussing Awhina’s sensational backflip or the swirling rumours about a romance with fellow contestant Billy Belcher.
Awhina and Adrian stunned viewers during Sunday’s Final Vows after first saying they were ready to part ways, only to change their minds.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, the 31-year-old single mum from Perth admitted she walked into the emotional ceremony fully prepared to end things for good – only to have a very last minute change of heart.
‘That morning I woke up very confident in my decision to leave,’ Awhina confessed.
‘My vows were set. The language I used was very definitive and very final. I was really happy to close that chapter.’
But when it came time to deliver her vows face-to-face with Adrian, 36, everything shifted.
‘It’s so hard to explain. When you’re standing in front of that person, all those real feelings come flooding back,’ she said.
Awhina admitted their Final Vows felt disconnected from what was really going on between the pair behind the scenes.
‘We were both using such definitive language that didn’t reflect our relationship in that moment. That night, we had dinner planned. I was staying at his apartment. We had concrete plans to still be in each other’s lives,’ she said.
She revealed that despite declaring they were done, the couple had no intention of cutting ties completely.
‘We weren’t planning on walking down the aisle, but we still had very real plans to see each other. It felt like we were being very black and white when we were living in the grey,’ she explained.
Awhina admitted she was swayed by Adrian’s charm.
‘I do have a soft spot for Adrian. His cheeky smirk was my kryptonite.
‘But I wasn’t saying I was going to marry this man – I was acknowledging that our vows weren’t an accurate reflection of our relationship,’ she added.
‘There were some very real issues that would have struggled outside the experiment. But when you see other couples leaving together, and you’re not, it feels like you’ve failed.’
It was quite the about face for Awhina who had previously slammed her TV groom claiming that the relationship had affected her mental and physical health.
‘I was physically unwell, overwhelmed, and he showed zero self-awareness,’ she told Daily Mail Australia.
‘I truly felt like he was actively trying to hurt me – that’s his fighting style.’
