Married At First Sight’s Lucinda Light has proved she has still got a lot of love for her groom Timothy Smith by sharing a touching tribute to the real estate tycoon this week.
In a letter written to Smith and posted on Instagram, Lucinda said she admired his ability to make people laugh while dealing with the pain of losing loved ones and thanked him for showing other men there is nothing wrong with expressing their emotions.
Smith’s mother died and his brother took his own life while he spent more than a year behind bars in the US for drug-running several years ago. His father also passed away just weeks before he started filming the Channel Nine show.
‘Dear Timbo, That’s a wrap! What a blast! What I adore most about you Tim is your ability to bring laughter to those around you, even amidst your own pain and loss. Your bravery throughout our time together has been awesome!’ Lucinda started her note.
‘You opened up your vulnerable side, showing men everywhere that it’s not okay to bottle it up! Despite your “Tin Man” façade, I see the enormous heart you carry.’

The bride continued: ‘I’m incredibly proud of you, and I’m sure your mum Varee and brother Dave would be too, looking down on you from up above.’
‘You’ve shown true courage and authenticity & you’re a legend. Too many men suffer in silence, and it’s time we changed that paradigm. We need to celebrate men who are open-hearted and willing to show their emotions. That’s the new SEXY!
‘I’ve witnessed you take tremendous strides in our journey together, and I hope you continue on your path of healing. True redemption and inner peace come from letting go, forgiving, and allowing love to flow freely.’
‘I believe in you, Timbo, and I know that a wonderful woman awaits you for a joyous journey ahead. Here whenever you need an ear. With love and admiration, Lu,’ she signed off.
Lucinda and Timothy thrilled viewers during Monday night’s Reunion Grand Finale when they revealed they had continued to forge their bond after leaving the show.
The pair told their castmates and the show’s relationship experts they have stayed in touch and grown closer after a rocky start in the experiment.
‘We still talk every couple of days. We are pretty on track. It’s amazing. So there’s hope, yes for sure,’ he said.

‘I always said it wasn’t an ending of something, but the beginning of something,’ Tim declared.
The pair then embraced and shared a kiss as their supportive co-stars cooed with joy.
Lucinda then closed the reunion as she declared: ‘I’ve got the perfect husband for me. This fella is a total spunk’.

The pair called time on their marriage at the final commitment ceremony, with Timothy acknowledging his lacklustre effort to the experts.
‘I didn’t go into homestay with the best attitude,’ he said at the time, before admitting he found deep emotional exploration ‘uncomfortable’ and ‘overwhelming’.
The former on-screen couple have been seen on nights out together.
