Omg, Adrian’s brother James is now dating a MAFS Aus 2024 queen and there are receipts

A strange crossover literally no one saw coming


Cheeky insiders at a reality TV bash have revealed that MAFS Australia’s James Araouzou has been secretly dating a former MAFS bride “for a few weeks now.”

Of course, James is the brother of the current groom Adrian Araouzou who is married to single mum Awhina Rutene, and though we did get a little screentime of him during their wedding, it’s suggested that he’s in later episodes of season 12.

Despite not being on the show himself, James has benefited massively from the MAFS attention as he attended a star-studded event at the Bambi Bar hotspot, which is reportedly frequented by a lot of “D-grade reality TV stars.”

It was here that people spotted him cosying up to a former MAFS Australia bride.

Adrian’s brother James Araouzou was whispering in this girl’s ear

Earlier this week, Adrian and James attended a soirée at the Bambi Bar with Love Island’s Em Miguel Leigh, Mia Parahini and MAFS alumni Eden Harper. Season 12 cast members Teejay Halkias and Dave Hand were also in attendance.

Now, sources at the event have claimed that James was cosying up to Eden Harper for most of the evening, whispering in one another’s ears as they “looked pretty comfortable” together.

“They were all over each other the entire time. Dancing, buying each other drinks at the bar all night, whispering in each other’s ears,” the source told So Dramatic. “It was weird to see after all the sh*t that’s happened with Adrian on and off the show. I wasn’t expecting her to align herself with them at all.”

Though she wasn’t name-dropped in the actual article, on the most recent episode of the So Dramatic podcast with Megan Pustetto, the host mentioned Eden as she shared her reaction.

“This is one recoupling I did not see coming, although Eden does seem to have pretty shocking taste in men if I’m being honest,” Megan joked.

It’s not a confirmation of the source’s claims, but a quick look at their Instagram accounts does confirm they follow one another.
