They both found shot to fame on reality TV.

But it was behind the camera that former Married At First Sight contestant James and My Kitchen Rules champion Bella found love with each other.

Speaking to WHO, Bella explained how their whirlwind romance came about.

“We had no idea each other existed, which is funny because we’ve both got similar stories, we’ve both got reality TV backgrounds,” she said.

But after meeting at a house party through mutual friends last September, it was clear the pair had a lasting connection.

“I could see he’s got good country values and he values family a lot. Which is really important,” Bella gushed.

“Bella is such a positive person,” James added.

“There is no negative energy at all.”

After their initial meeting, the pair chatted on social media for several weeks, before eventually meet up where James admits he “felt something instantly.”

“I pretty much loved him from before our first date!” Bella agreed.

 And despite their brief courtship, the couple are already thinking long-term about their future together.

“When you’re at this age, we are like, ‘Let’s not muck around if this is not serious,” James said.
