From the moment they set eyes on each other at the altar of their Married At First Sight wedding, Rhi and Jeff have seemed destined to last the distance.
Now that the show has officially wrapped up, fans have assumed they would be announcing their real-life engagement imminently, just like Jacqui and Clint did.
But in a recent interview with Yahoo Lifestyle, the couple revealed they have no plans to tie the knot anytime soon.
“We’re on a great path, and when it happens, it happens. But there’s no pressure,” Rhi told the publication.
When asked what they thought about doing a joint wedding with Jacqui and Clint, they then laughed.
“I don’t know if I’d want to be part of a sponsored wedding. It’d be a bit cringe if you ask me. There’d be too many items and companies getting tagged through Instagram,” Jeff said.
While this was off the cards for them, they said they wouldn’t say no to a televised wedding event on Channel Nine.
“I think we would consider it, to be honest,” the MAFS groom said.
“Our experience with reality TV, and obviously MAFS, has been great. We love it. We loved everyone from production and the network; it was great. So that’s something we probably would consider, to be honest.”
Going strong after MAFS
Since filming wrapped on MAFS late last year, account manager Rhi, 34, and electrician Jeff have been spotted in public together on several occasions.
This included at his recent 40th birthday party, where an emotional Rhi delivered a very romantic speech.
“You’re the best person that I’ve ever met and the best thing that’s ever happened to me,” Rhi gushed in a video shared by the podcast So Dramatic! on their Instagram.
Jeff then gave his own speech, telling Rhi: “I do love you so much.”
The couple said ‘I love you’ to each other for the first time at the MAFS reunion, much to the excitement of the contestants and experts.
“It’s not until the experts get things out of you. I think that we’d both been thinking it for a little while just nobody had said it yet,” Rhi told 9 Entertainment.
“When they asked I remember just waiting and thinking, ‘If he doesn’t say it, I’m just going to’.”
Things certainly seemed serious between them when New Idea caught up with the couple for a photo shoot and chat.
Jeff told us he had given Rhi the key to his apartment (during home visits on the show) because he “wanted Rhi to be around as much as possible”.
“We got along so well living with each other [in the experiment], so I knew I wanted that to continue,” Jeff explained.
“So I thought, ‘Why not give her a key?’ And then she can just come over whenever she wants.”
The groom told 9 Entertainment they hoped to move in together within the next year. The couple also seems to be enjoying time travelling together.
Rhi and Jeff didn’t give too much away during our time together, but they did admit to wanting kids one day.
No matter what the future holds, this couple struck gold on MAFS.
“We just get on so well,” Rhi confirmed.
“We don’t argue, our views and values are very similar and we’re very similar people.”
