MAFS bride Rhi Disljenkovic slams cruel pregnancy speculation after Jamie Marinos was forced to shut down baby rumours: ‘It actually hurts’

BBG News

In response to speculations about a possible pregnancy, the star of Married At First Sight, Rhiannon Disljenkovic, has refuted the rumors that were sparked by some fans’ observations of her latest images.

The 35-year-old fitness blogger expressed feelings of disappointment and self-consciousness upon encountering online speculation about potential pregnancy.

‘Honestly, it’s disappointing,’ Rhi told Daily Mail Australia on Tuesday.

During and following the experiment, I gained some extra pounds, which made me rather sensitive about my appearance. Therefore, when others make assumptions or comments about my weight, it doesn’t simply brush off – instead, it leaves a painful impression.

The woman with dark hair, renowned for her lively character, expressed her annoyance at the persistent assumption that women must always explain any bodily transformations.

She stated that there’s a strange assumption that women must clarify any alterations in their physique, and as soon as we don’t appear toned or are not captured favorably, people tend to assume things like pregnancy.

It might surprise you to learn about the struggles another person may be facing, and even if someone appears pregnant, remember that it’s a deeply personal matter.

She stated, “It’s not idle talk; it’s harmful, and it can impact a person’s emotional wellbeing significantly. Let’s strive for improvement.

It comes just days after her co-star Jamie Marinos was forced to shut down similar rumours.

At a recent gathering in Melbourne, Jamie, age 29, was snapped donning a tight ensemble, leading to chatter on the internet about a possible pregnancy rumor.

Later on, she used Instagram to clarify the rumors, asserting emphatically that she wasn’t expecting a child and advising her followers about how certain perspectives and lighting could be deceptive.

Over the weekend, speculation about Marinos possibly having a newborn arose when photos emerged showing him at a Voir Vodka dinner held at Bar Bambi in Melbourne. This event was also attended by his fellow stars, Eliot Donovan and Teejay Halkias.

In the photos posted by @mafsgossip, there was an image of Jamie standing next to Eliot, whom there have been rumors of her dating lately. They both were dressed in chic, monochrome attire that appeared to suggest a possible pregnancy bulge for Jamie.

One fan remarked, “It seems to me that Jaime has a noticeable bulge,” and another joined in, “I can’t tell if it’s a real baby bump or an edited one, but there definitely appears to be a swelling!

However, Jamie quickly quelled the rumors by jumping straight into the comment section to tackle the discussion head-on.

She wrote that she would attribute the issue to poor lighting since there was actually none, and she wanted to emphasize this by saying there was no bump either. She ended her message with a laughing emoji. (Using simpler language)

In a playful remark, the stunning woman humorously asked, “What is causing my current excitement when there isn’t even a baby in existence?” Later on, she clarified that the numerous vodka drinks she had that evening served as evidence that she was not pregnant.

Later on, the MAFS celebrity reinforced her statement by posting the identical photo on her Instagram Stories with the caption: “What’s going on here with this trick of the eye? It appears I have a baby bump!

She commented, “It would be quite amusing, wouldn’t it, if at an occasion for a liquor company I were to announce a pregnancy. However, the humor would be lost on me since I’d be extremely upset because I’m currently abstaining from alcohol.

After wrapping up the show in April, Jamie and Eliot have gained significant attention on social media platforms, becoming two of the most popular cast members. Frequently, they fuel relationship speculation through playful remarks, TikTok collaborations, and shared event appearances.

Even though they share an evident connection, Jamie had made it clear during a fan Q&A that their bond is purely a close friendship: ‘We’re truly great pals.’

He’s been an incredible pillar of support, constantly making me smile, and I feel incredibly thankful to have him by my side.

She mentioned: ‘Right now, we’re both unattached and concentrating on our individual growth. The future, though, is uncertain.’

In conversation with Daily Mail Australia, Jamie and Eliot expressed the same idea, using words like ‘unexpected bond’ and ‘day by day approach’, respectively. They have formed a unique friendship since their show ended and are just taking things one step at a time.

The duo initially fueled dating speculations when they attended Daily Mail Australia’s reunion event in April.

Jamie is incredibly attractive, and it’d be quite fortunate for anyone to be in a romantic relationship with her, but as of now, we’re simply good friends, he shared with 9Entertainment.

Right now, I’m not ready for a romantic involvement, but who knows what the future holds? I’m really enjoying this experience, and having Jamie along for the ride makes it even better.

Eliot praised his bond with Jamie, expressing that their friendship has blossomed since they crossed paths during the movie shoot last year.
