It was a night of revelations, unexpected admissions, and a wardrobe malfunction that left everyone talking.
Nova 96.9’s Fitzy and Wippa hosted its annual Married At First Sight dinner party on Wednesday night, and it was jam-packed with its usual drama.

From sheer dresses gone rogue to bombshell relationship updates, MailOnline dives into the juiciest details from the reunion bash.

Sara’s Sheer Surprise
The evening kicked off with a fashion faux pas as one star made a bombshell arrival to the bash.
Sara Mesa, looking glamorous in a daring lilac dress, suffered an awkward wardrobe malfunction as her completely sheer gown slipped.
But, ever the sport, she laughed it off the gaffe and adjusted her ensemble with the grace of a reality TV pro as she arrived alongside co-star Lauren Dunn.
Recovering from the malfunction, the close pals were later seen showing off their elegant ensembles as they posed up a storm for the cameras.

Ink-stead of Love
Ridge Barredo, always one to make an impression, certainly made a memorable statement when he showed off his tattoo tribute to his on-screen wife Jade Pywell.
In a Bali-inspired moment of passion, Ridge revealed Jade’s name tattooed across his back in a very bold, and permanent, statement.
Jade’s reaction? A mix of flattery and amusement.
‘The joke’s on him, because my name is on there,’ she chuckled, proving that love (or at least, tattoos) are forever.

Where’s the Love?
In a Q&A that had everyone on the edge of their seats, Sara – who was matched with Tim Calwell on the show – dished on the aftermath of her on-screen dalliance.
‘Honestly, I feel like the show really broke that relationship,’ she confessed, closing the chapter on her televised romance saga.
‘It really cemented that there’s nothing [there].’
Meanwhile, Lauren Dunn had only praise for her on-screen hubby Jonathan McCullough, despite his dramatic texting scandal with fellow bride Ellie Dix.
‘He’s way too nice for me,’ she admitted as she discussed the downfall of their relationship.

Textual Healing
Lauren’s revelation that Jonathan and Ellie are now an item was delivered with a surprising dose of goodwill.
‘F**k I’m going to get in trouble,’ she said, after confirming Jono and Ellie are now officially a couple.
‘They’re really happy and I couldn’t be more than happy for them,’ she shared, before joking about the potential fallout of her admission.
‘He wasn’t cheating on me, he wasn’t trying to deliberately deceive me. It’s like in these shows if you’re cheating on your bride and the producers find out and everyone finds out, we’re going in.’

The Elephant Not in the Room
The conspicuous absence of Jack Dunkley and Tori Adams was the night’s unsolved mystery, leaving Timothy itching for a confrontation that never came.
‘You f***ing liar,’ he declared, aiming his disappointment at Jack, the phantom of the party.
‘He’s full of sh*t from head to toe,’ he added.
When Kate Ritchie asked, ‘What’s Jack doing?’, Tim replied, ‘He’s doing everybody.’

Lucinda Light, dishing on her post-show dating details, revealed her inbox is buzzing with potential suitors, men and women alike.
Yet, her heart still holds out for that special someone after her split from Timothy, proving that even after the cameras stop rolling, the quest for love continues.
‘I’m building out on my website at the moment something that’s called Lucinda Light Tribe,’ she shared.
‘It’s a bi-weekly Zoom chat with me, there’s Tribe Times which is a weekly publication, it’s gonna have my emotional intelligence course and upgrading and you get a copy of my book.
‘That’s really exciting from a business perspective. But I’m definitely looking at offers that have come to me from Iceland to Japan. It has actually been wild, like hundreds of offers. Business is booming.’
