Married At First Sight’s Morena Farina cut a stylish figure as she skipped out of Australia’s ‘social experiment’ and bid ‘good riddance’ to her TV husband Tony Mojanovski.
The 57-year-old DJ claimed she was ‘ready to walk’ from production weeks ago, but was pressured into staying after a late-night intervention from production bosses.
And she looked happy to be gone as she was spotted in a colourful display on Chapel Street in her native Melbourne after filming her final commitment ceremony.
The newly single blonde positively glowed, as took style cues from cult ’90s film Clueless, and basked in her newfound freedom from 24/7 filming.
Morena pulled the Bridgette boucle mini skirt and textured blazer from her pre-MAFS wardrobe, pairing the Decjuba co-ord with a white lace camisole, a pair of white go-go boots and a fresh spray tan.
She finished the look with a pair of large silver hoop earrings and a black handbag, as well as a broad smile.

In Sunday’s episode, Morena returned unexpectedly to the couch following her disappearance after the dinner party last Wednesday, determined not to let Tony, 53, have the final say on their tumultuous relationship.
‘Did you really think I wasn’t gonna come?’ she asked as she strode into the room, turning heads.
‘Did you really think I was gonna give him the last word?’
Her entrance set the stage for an explosive showdown, with Tony attempting to explain why he felt their relationship was doomed from the start.
‘They were holding me against my will. I told them, “I’m going to call the police—give me my phone,”‘ Morena told Daily Mail Australia.
‘They put their hands up and acted innocent, saying, “No, no, no, we haven’t touched you.”‘
Despite being prepared to leave, Morena was convinced to stay after a conversation with the show’s top executives.
‘I had the big boss on the phone for a long time,’ she revealed.

‘They told me, “Are you really going to let Tony get away with everything he’s done to you? You know he’s married. He wanted his wife to come into the experiment.
‘He thinks you’re too old, calls you a sl**, even headlocks you.”‘
Morena eventually agreed to attend one final Commitment Ceremony—but with conditions.
‘I told them, “I’m not speaking to the experts. They’ve never had my back. I just need to confront Tony,”‘ she explained.
‘They said, “Done. You can make a grand entry when Tony is on the couch and rip into him.”‘
Sunday’s episode saw Morena storm onto the set while Tony is on the couch, delivering a brutal take-down of her on-screen husband before dramatically walking out for good.
‘I slammed the door so hard the whole set trembled,’ she recalled. ‘Tony was stunned. The entire cast was in shock.’
During the fiery confrontation, Morena exposed multiple secrets about Tony’s behaviour in the experiment, including his alleged desire to bring his estranged wife onto the show.

‘He suddenly changed his story and said it wasn’t about my age – it was because he wanted a baby,’ Morena said.
‘I grabbed his hand and told him, “Tony, if you wanted a baby, I would have let you go. I would never stop you.”‘
However, she later claimed that Tony’s own cousin had told her he was infertile.
Morena also revealed the shocking tactics used behind the scenes, claiming she was ‘locked in a tent for hours’ before filming dinner parties and commitment ceremonies.
‘They either freeze you or overheat you.
‘They do it so you can become aggressive. You get soft drink and junk food, and that’s it,’ she said.
She added that some cast members, including Tony, were given preferential treatment, with her husband allegedly being allowed to return home to Wollongong every weekend.
Morena insisted her frustration on-screen was a result of the conditions she endured.

‘Every day, Tony told me he was repulsed by me. He didn’t want to be there. He was only in the experiment for exposure,’ she alleged.
‘I threw up every day. The stress was unbearable.’
The reality star also revealed she had no regrets about leaving the show.
‘They didn’t show my story. I don’t care that I was made the villain. But I refuse to be defeated,’ she said.
Taking to social media on Monday, Morena was in good spirits after playing a sold-out DJ gig to 250 people.
‘Strangers have tried to shut me down, but all they’ve done is empower me,’ she wrote.
‘I cannot be broken and life is too precious to be defeated by a bunch of strangers. Good people always win in life.’
