They are the most successful couple to come out of this season’s Married At First Sight.
And Rhi Disljenkovic and Jeff Gobbels were as loved-up as ever as they attended Daily Mail Australia’s exclusive MAFS reunion party in Sydney on Sunday night.
The couple were by each other’s side for most of the night, and held hands and stared into each other’s eyes during dinner.
The pair opted for an almost wedding-style attire at the soiree.
Rhi looked sensational in a shimmery cream strapless gown that skimmed her incredible figure.
She opted for high glam for her hair and makeup, coiffing her chocolate locks in bouncy curls and made up in a bronzed makeup palette.

Meanwhile, Jeff looked dapper in a cream suit with an open neck shirt and had a neatly trimmed beard.
The couple, who melted hearts during their Final Vows last week when they chose to stay together, have revealed what’s next for their blossoming relationship and shut down swirling engagement rumours.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, the Melbourne-based pair admitted there was never a doubt in their minds when it came to continuing their relationship beyond the controversial social experiment.
‘No, I didn’t have to think twice at all,’ Rhi, 34, said. ‘It was definitely an easy choice, thankfully.’
Jeff, 40, added: ‘I’m a pretty positive person, so I did go into it hoping that would happen and really believing it would happen for me. And luckily it did.’
The fan-favourite couple – who famously had history before the show said the key to their success was emotional maturity, communication and focusing on their connection instead of the surrounding drama.
‘Good communication and emotional maturity plays a huge part in any relationship,’ Rhi explained. ‘And that’s one thing that Jeff and I were really good at throughout the experiment.’

Jeff added: ‘It’s heavily reliant on who you get partnered with. On paper, some people look like great matches, but when it comes down to it, sometimes they’re not. In our case, we were a great match on paper and in real life.’
The couple revealed intimacy week was the moment they realised their spark was real, but things almost came undone after the infamous couples’ retreat – when the toxic drama and relentless feuds left them questioning whether to stay.
‘I remember saying to Jeff after the retreat, “I’m not sure if I can do this anymore”,’ Rhi admitted.
‘But I realised we were there for our relationship, not the drama and that’s why I stuck around.’
The truth about those engagement rumours
In recent weeks, fans and gossip magazines have speculated the pair were preparing to announce an engagement at the reunion or shortly after – but the couple say that’s simply not true.
‘I don’t know where that rumour came from – that we’re coming into the reunion engaged or something,’ Jeff said.
‘That’s incorrect. It is still a fresh relationship. We’ve got so many things we want to do first – travel, spend time with family and friends. But if everything keeps going well like it is now, then who knows.’
Rhi added: ‘There was an element of pressure during the experiment, where we felt like we had to fast-track things because other people were going faster, but I’m really glad we took it at our own pace.’
