Married At First Sight 2025 is already shaping up to be one for the books.
Daily Mail Australia can reveal that former Big Brother star Teejay Halkias is set to join season 12 as an intruder.
The Brisbane-based model, who is in his 20s, will be paired with Bethy Kelly on the show.
With an impressive background in high-profile runway shows, TV commercials, and music videos, Teejay is ready to bring his A-game to the dinner parties.
Originally from Adelaide, Teejay boasts a diverse heritage with Greek and Indian roots.
He’s also well-connected in the reality TV scene, being friends with former MAFS bride Eden Harper.
Teejay first caught the nation’s attention on Big Brother in 2023, where he made it to ninth place after just 15 days in the house.
Despite his brief stint, he left a memorable mark, receiving five votes against him.

His confident vibe and quick wit won over viewers when he entered the show as an intruder then, and now he’s set to channel that same energy into MAFS.
With a solid following of over 16,400 on TikTok and 12,000 on Instagram, Teejay has a loyal fan base.
Interestingly, both his social accounts have recently been switched to private—a clear hint that his next reality TV adventure is on the horizon.
An insider close to the production confirmed: ‘Teejay is definitely going to bring some serious vibes to the MAFS experiment.’
‘He’s a lover boy at heart, but he’s not afraid to speak his mind, which could either make him a perfect match or stir up some major drama.’
Like three others, Teejay already has a Starnow profile and is open to acting and modelling jobs.
Teejay is the latest high profile groom to be confirmed for the series.

Fans threaten to boycott 2025 series
Some viewers have already threatened to boycott the 2025 series after the casting of well-known reality stars, including Paul Antoine, who appeared on The Real Love Boat, and Bachelor star Sierah Swepstone.
Fans of the show expressed their frustration on social media, accusing the producers of recycling reality TV personalities rather than giving ordinary Australians a chance to find love.
‘MAFS has lost its authenticity,’ one disgruntled viewer wrote on Instagram.
