The shaky career prospects of MAFS’ Adrian after he was dropped by his agent after DAYS

Adrian Araouzou might not have left the MAFS Australia experiment with a bride on his arm, but he did somehow manage to break the record for the quickest 360 moment in reality TV history when his agent dropped him just DAYS into the collaboration.

In the first week of May, reality TV star and businesswoman Roxy Jacenko signed Adrian to her management company, The Ministry Of Talent, which also boasts some pretty big names in the influencer scene.

“Thrilled to announce that @adrian.araouzou is now represented by The Ministry of Talent for social media collabs and appearances!” she said in an announcement. But just a week later, people noticed how The Ministry of Talent was dropped from Adrian’s TikTok bio, and he no longer featured on its website.

“I can confirm Adrian is not represented by The Ministry of Talent,” Roxy then confirmed to the MailOnline, as Adrian told Yahoo, “There are no hard feelings. I understand what it is.”

Though his future career prospects were looking bright under the watchful eye of Roxy Jacenko, Adrian has now got to make it on his own without backing from a top PR firm. But rather than just return to everyday work like the rest of us, he’s still keen to follow in the footsteps of other reality TV icons.

“I plan on dissociating anything to do with MAFS. I enjoy creating content, so I’ll continue to keep on doing that, just like I was doing before the show. I have other business ventures that I would like to explore and see where life takes me. I am an open book right now. Oh, [and] continue the quest to find my forever person,” he told Yahoo.

Though Adrian is clearly looking to break into the influencer space, someone earlier claimed that it was going awfully and he was left jobless and couch surfing as a result. This came shortly after the director of Sydney talent agency RoJo Consulting ranked the MAFS cast by how much they could make from brand deals. Jamie Marinos was topping the list, followed by Dave Hand and Adrian’s on-screen bride Awhina Rutene. Unfortunately, Adrian was pretty far down the list; only above Clint Rice, Ashleigh Ackerman, Ryan Donnelly, and Jake Luik – ouch!

On the business side of things, Adrian will be continuing with his gymwear brand PakD, which is currently flogging a duffel bag for $189 AUD, a shoe vault for $49, and a gym rope bag for $49. Whether he’ll make serious bank on the project is yet to be seen, but he did reveal further expansions of the business on a recent TikTok.

Finally, Adrian is hoping to flog his TikTok account for some quick cash.

Adrian has a theory about why his agent dropped him

After being savagely dropped by his agent after seven days, Adrian told Chattr that he believed it was because of his position as a controversial MAFS Australia groom.

“I can understand [Roxy’s] point of view [if she received] backlash. People hate seeing people do good, and unfortunately, a lot of people will do the most to make sure I don’t,” he said.
