And 44-year-old James apparently caused a PR headache for Channel Nine when he was a no-show for the couple’s breakfast radio interviews on Thursday.

After she couldn’t reach her husband, Joanne went ahead with the interviews with major and regional radio stations on her own.
The network likely wanted each of the couples to do joint interviews in an effort to avoid spoiling the outcome of the experiment.
Daily Mail Australia has contacted Channel Nine for comment.

James and Joanne tied the knot on Wednesday’s episode of Married At First Sight.
During their nuptials, the hairdresser revealed a hint of insecurity when her groom showed off his Rolex watch.
‘We’re getting along like a house on fire, but I noticed that he has this Rolex watch, so I am worried that we are from completely different worlds,’ she said.
‘I’m a Kmart shopper and he looks like a Rolex shopper, so this will be interesting.’

James reassured her by saying: ‘You are my type, and I don’t want you feel insecure in any way or form. I’ve honestly come here with an open heart, and there is really more to me that meets the eye, there really is.
‘Nice clothes, nice car, that’s all great, it is. That’s just on the surface. I just want you to look beyond that for who I am inside.’
