Married at First Sight Australia 2023’s Josh White has proved he’s not as “conservative” as his TV bride Melissa Sheppard might think after sharing a “couple swap” kiss with co-star Lyndall Grace.
The 27-year-old was spotted locking lips with the Disney-obsessed groom, 42, while out in Sydney at a season-wrap celebration, according to Daily Mail Australia.
But the publication alleged that it wasn’t just a tipsy, one-time party pash. They suggested Josh also visited Lyndall in Perth in late January for a weekend getaway.
“Josh and Lyndall were secretly hooking up for weeks,” another participant told the news outlet.
They added: “Things started when he told her he ‘really liked her‘ and felt like kissing her. She said, ‘Well, go on then’.”
Apparently, after locking lips for the first time, the unlikely couple “couldn’t stop pashing” in front of their MAFS co-stars.
“They would spend hours on the phone with each other every night. They just got to really know each other that way,” the source claimed. NGL, that’s kinda cute…
Married at First Sight’s Melissa Sheppard was the last participant to find out about Josh White and Lyndall Grace’s couple swap
And let’s all take a collective sigh of relief, as Josh and Lyndall had already split with their respective TV partners, Melissa and Cameron Woods, before the hook-up.
But that doesn’t mean it didn’t leave a “sour taste” in Melissa mouth when she was the last one to find out about the couple swap.
“[Melissa was] the last one to hear about it, and boy, was she not happy,” the insider said.
They added: “A lot of the crew were stunned their hook-up became so serious so quickly.”
Uhm, were they seeing the same Lyndall and Josh that we were?! We certainly didn’t expect them together, but it’s pretty clear that they’re both keen for something serious ASAP!
Unfortunately, for any new #Jyndall fans, the new couple has already ended things.
MAFS intruder Tayla Winter claims Lyndall Grace is a TOTALLY different person to what we’ve seen on TV
After the couple swap news came out on February 9, Tayla Winter (a yet-to-be-introduced Married at First Sight intruder bride) bizarrely came out with bullying allegations against Lyndall.
The 27-year-old nurse spoke up on her Instagram Story, claiming she had to put her two cents in before producers took over her social media access.
“Lyndall, you’re the biggest bully I’ve ever met,” Tayla claimed.
She appeared to suggest the article about the couple swap was “surface level” compared to everything the MAFS cast experienced behind the scenes.
“The amount of hurt you have caused many people is damaging and dangerous. I’m hoping people get to tell their truth and the real story is heard sooner rather than later,” she said.
Tayla finished her bizarre post by adding: “Be kind to people and not only in front of a camera, behind closed doors.”
Yeah, don’t worry. We’re just as lost as you are…
