It turns out that they have been married for a couple of weeks, and have finally shared the news with their fans, after months of updates about their special day.

Taking to Instagram in a joint post, the TV star announced that they got married on April 20 at Lake Wakatipu in New Zealand. Jacqui also revealed that she has taken her husband’s surname.

They were initially planning to elope, but instead opted to celebrate at a big celebration with all their loved ones, and some of their MAFS cast members were believed to have attend.

Their co-star Morena was believed to have DJed at the wedding, with the couple describing her as their “biggest supporter since day one”, but it’s not known if any other familiar faces were there.

But other MAFS co-stars were quick to congratulate the couple on their happy news.

“OHHHHHH CONGRATULATIONS GUYS,” 2026 bride Bec Zacharia commented.

“Awww congratulations 🥂 ❤️💍,” MAFS 2021 groom Liam Cooper wrote.

Right before her big day, the bride was photographed carrying a dark-green garment bag from bridal designer Moira Hughes, whose custom gowns can retail for up to $13,000, giving an insight into the eye-watering price tag of her wedding dress.

In the lead-up to the big day, her business, Jacqueline Lee Jewellery, also shared an Instagram post confirming that they are closing for a week for the wedding.

“F*** it, we’re getting married,” the post read. “We are taking a break. The whole team is off – we won’t reply to your emails. No DMs. Nothing. Radio silence on our end.”

“See you all soon when I’m a Mrs Jacqueline Lee Rice,” Jacqui signed off the post.

Though Jacqui has walked down the aisle before in another Moira Hughes dress, on her MAFS wedding day, she insists that this time, it felt very different.

“It feels so different [this time],” she recently told our sister publication Woman’s Day during one of her fittings.

“First of all, the wedding [on MAFS] wasn’t real. But this time, it’s with a man I truly love and I want to marry.”

It’s been a whirlwind romance for Jacqui and Clint, who got engaged at a MAFS viewing party in April 2025, just months after they fell for each other post-filming.

They weren’t matched on the Channel Nine experiment, with Jacqui being matched with Ryan Donnelly, while Clint had an ill-fated marriage with Lauren Hall.

Jacqui and Clint then connected after Final Vows, with their platonic friendship quickly turning into something more romantic.

“We could tell there was a spark between us,” Clint said on The Fox’s Fifi, Fev & Nick.
