Fans of Married At First Sight Australia (MAFS) have been buzzing with excitement about Rhi Disljenkovic and Jeff Gobbels, the couple with a unique twist—they actually dated before the show. Unlike the usual strangers meeting at the altar, their history adds an extra layer of intrigue.
So, did this second chance ignite a lasting connection, or did it fizzle out again? Let’s take a look at what we know as of March 26, 2025.
The word on search engines like Google and social platforms like X is pretty promising. It seems like Rhi and Jeff are still going strong after the show. Recent paparazzi photos show them walking hand-in-hand in Melbourne for Jeff’s 40th birthday, and a sweet video from the party captures Jeff declaring his love for Rhi.
Their social media interactions—from liking each other’s posts to sharing flirty emojis between October 2024 and January 2025—also suggest they’ve managed to stick together since filming wrapped up in November.
Love Rhi & Jeff. A vanilla couple who are two legit lovely people who need to find THAT spark they once had before.
Plus one of the most genuine “slow burn” couples who are getting to know each other (again) without shagging each others brains out (again)#mafsau

On-screen, their relationship has evolved from awkward exes to one of the season’s most solid pairs, despite some bumps, like the controversial texts from fellow contestant Jacqui to Jeff.
While the finale vows haven’t aired yet, the signs definitely point to a happy ending. They’ve tackled the challenges of the experiment with mutual respect, transforming their past “friend-zone” vibes into something much deeper during Intimacy Week. For now, Rhi and Jeff look like a rare success story in the MAFS world—two people who got a second chance and made it work.
