Married At First Sight‘s Cameron Dunne said last week producers had deliberately mismatched him with Samantha Jayne so he would pursue another bride.
But it turns out this probably wasn’t the case, as the crane operator, 32, is in fact a dead ringer for single mum Sam’s first husband and the father of her two children.
A never-before-seen photo of Samantha, 31, and her ex kissing one of their sons shows that he bears a striking resemblance to Cameron.

Her first husband, whose name has not been revealed, looks almost identical to Cameron thanks to their matching shaved heads.
The photo was taken shortly after Samantha and her first husband married, and shows them kissing their eldest son on each side of his cheek.
In further evidence Samantha and Cameron weren’t purposely mismatched, Daily Mail Australia can reveal he has the same job as both her parents.

A source said Samantha was instantly attracted to Cameron and was ‘desperate to take him back home to show off to her friends and family’.
‘Her parents are both crane operators and she thought they would hit it off,’ they added.
Cameron hinted on the Cliffo & Gabi radio show last week that his affair on MAFS with Pilates studio owner Coco Stedman, 30, had been encouraged by producers.

Claims: Cameron hinted on the Cliffo & Gabi radio show last week that his affair on MAFS with Pilates studio owner Coco Stedman, 30, had been encouraged by producers when they deliberately mismatched him with Samantha (pictured on their wedding day)
He said the producers and experts had deliberately mismatched him with Samantha in the hope he would pursue another bride.
‘That was my theory on paper. Coco is probably the perfect match for me. We’ll see how that plays out,’ he said cryptically.
Married At First Sight continues Sunday at 7pm on Channel Nine
