In a plot twist straight out of a reality TV fever dream, TikTok sensation Tyson Fievez – the guy who skyrocketed to fame for ghosting Married At First Sight (MAFS) bride Jamie Marinos in one of the show’s most jaw-dropping moments – has been caught in a steamy new romance. And guess who’s turning heads alongside him? None other than My Kitchen Rules star Mel Bailey, the fiery blonde who’s stealing the spotlight and, apparently, Tyson’s heart!
Exclusive snaps from Daily Mail capture the electric chemistry at FHM’s epic Halloween bash in Sydney on Thursday night. There they were, in the VIP lounge, locked in a playful kiss that had the room buzzing. Mel, 34, rocked a sizzling black mini dress topped with devil horns, leaning in whisper-close to the tattooed heartthrob in his twenties. Tyson, channeling Baywatch vibes in a red ensemble that flaunted his killer leg ink and a casual grey cap, couldn’t wipe the grin off his face as he soaked up the night with this bubbly bombshell.
The duo were inseparable, hands all over each other amid giggles, secrets, and sips from red cups. At one point, Mel draped her arm around his neck for a cozy couch moment, surrounded by pals but lost in their own world. “Mel looked absolutely smitten – they didn’t care who was watching,” dished an insider. “The chemistry was off the charts!”
This sizzling sighting comes hot on the heels of Tyson’s viral drama with Jamie earlier this year. Remember the chaos? During MAFS’s wild “most fked up challenge,” Jamie bravely showed up for a blind date with her “Plan B” match – only to be left high and dry at a Sydney restaurant, nursing a solo glass of white wine. “I’m a nosey b*h, I love to know these things… So curious!” she quipped to producers, masking her disappointment. “I had more than one match? I’m actually surprised there was one match. Now, there’s more? I’m unmatchable!”
Tyson later spilled the tea to Daily Mail, explaining his no-show: “Honestly, I had no bad intentions standing her up first time round. Just didn’t wanna intrude on her previous marriage with David.” But sparks flew when they reunited in Melbourne, with flirty Instagram Stories showing them arm-in-arm. Jamie even captioned one with “my baby,” while Tyson gushed, “She’s an amazing chick, with a bubbly energy! Definitely a vibe to be around.” He teased romance with a wink: “Guess you’ll have to wait and see if romance develops!”
Fans went wild, shipping the pair hard. “They actually look so cute together,” one gushed. “She dodged a bullet with Dave – this is the match we were robbed of!” another raved. But fast-forward to now, and it seems Tyson’s affections have shifted. Mel, with her larger-than-life personality from My Kitchen Rules, is the fresh face captivating the influencer – and turning the Halloween party into her own love story.
The FHM event was a reality TV extravaganza, drawing stars from MAFS, The Bachelor, Love Island, and more to toast the magazine’s ‘Woman of the Year’ issue at The Rawson. Yet, it was Mel and Tyson’s flirty antics – alongside pals like Ready Or Not founder Corey Jefferys and influencer James Pappalardo – that stole the show and sparked endless online chatter.
Neither Mel nor Tyson has spilled on their cozy night out, leaving fans in a frenzy. Has the viral ghoster found his perfect match in this kitchen queen? One thing’s for sure: after that scandalous stand-up, Tyson’s got a new muse – and she’s changing the game! Stay tuned for more drama…
