Sam Stanton Shows Off Six-Pack at Dance Party

Married At First Sight groom Sam Stanton showed off his impressive physique during a lively performance at the Fringe Festival over the weekend.

The fitness studio owner, 34, stripped down to reveal his chiselled six-pack as he took to the stage during the Old Town Road country dance party, delighting the packed crowd with a high-energy routine.

Footage obtained by Daily Mail show Sam confidently dancing front and centre, wearing nothing but a pair of loose blue jeans and a black cowboy hat as he strutted across the stage.

The shirtless TV groom flaunted his muscular torso and toned abs while performing a cheeky country dance routine alongside two female dancers dressed in Western-inspired outfits.

The dancers embraced the theme in glittering pink tank tops, denim shorts and white cowboy boots, completing their looks with cowboy hats and bright bandanas tied around their necks.

Behind them, a glowing 'Old Town Road' sign lit up the stage as the trio performed a series of coordinated dance moves to the country hit Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy) by Big & Rich.

At one point during the routine, Sam appeared to wipe sweat from his face as the crowd cheered him on, clearly enjoying the energetic performance.

Another moment saw him remove his hat mid-performance before continuing to dance alongside the performers, who were laughing and interacting with the audience.

The Adelaide Fringe Festival is known for its vibrant mix of comedy, theatre and live performances, and the country-themed dance party proved to be a crowd favourite.

It comes after former MAFS groom Eliot Donovan revealed his secret connection to the intruder groom. 

Taking to , the MAFS alum shared a throwback photo of the pair together at a bustling bar in Saint Martin back in 2014 - long before either of them signed up for .

In the image, a fresh-faced Eliot and Sam are seen sitting shoulder-to-shoulder in sleeveless tank tops, each clutching a beer as they grin at the camera.

Eliot, sporting dark tousled hair and a muscular build, flashes a relaxed hand sign while Sam beams broadly, his arm draped casually around his now fellow MAFS groom.

The tropical backdrop and crowded bar setting suggest a carefree working holiday vibe - a far cry from the high-pressure dinner parties of the experiment.

'So I actually know the new masked villain that's coming on, this guy,' Eliot began in the clip, before quickly laughing. 'I'm just kidding, he's not a villain.'

Eliot explained the pair met more than a decade ago while working as personal trainers.

'We met back in 2014 though, there's a photo of us together at a bar in Saint Martin,' he said.

'I took over a ship that he was working on. I'll never forget, everyone on the ship was obsessed with this guy. They were like, 'Oh my God, he's so amazing.'

Eliot admitted he was intrigued by Sam's popularity at the time.

'I remember I messaged him and I was like, 'Dude, what the f*** did you do to this cast because it's like they're obsessed with you.'

Despite the hype, Eliot insisted Sam was the real deal.

'We ended up meeting up later on and he is just a really genuine, sweet guy.'

The pair eventually lost touch over the years and have not spoken since.

'We don't talk or anything, so I don't know how his journey goes,' Eliot said. 

Viewers watched sparks fly between the pair during their wedding in Episode 14, but Sam admitted the chemistry was not instant. 'I wouldn't say it was instant connection,' he said
