Married At First Sight‘s Jake Edwards has seemingly given up trying to hide his relationship with Gold Coast nutritionist Sophie Guidolin.
Despite the fact he’s still with wife’ Beck Zemek on the Nine show – which was filmed months ago – the charity CEO, 33, has been parading his new squeeze on Instagram.
Jake, who is based in Melbourne, flew to Noosa, Queensland, on Monday ahead of Sophie’s 33rd birthday, Daily Mail Australia can reveal.
After being spotted together on several occasions, it appears Married At First Sight’s Jake Edwards and Gold-Coast beauty Sophie Guidolin have confirmed their romance. Posting to her Instagram, she shared footage of a cheese platter, before panning over footage of her new boyfriend Jake himself. Pictured, Jake Edwards, 33
The following day, Jake appeared in an Instagram video Sophie posted from the beach, which she captioned: ‘Birthday swims’.
Later, Sophie hinted her boyfriend had given her a memorable birthday present, but said she couldn’t provide any details for ‘a couple of days’.
The fact they are being so open about their relationship suggests Jake and Beck’s departure from Married At First Sight is imminent.
In between taking in the sun’s rays and a few dips in the ocean, the influencer shared a Q and A with fans, which appeared to show her hinting at a possible relationship announcement. ‘I can’t say yet, but I will in a couple of days,’ she answered a question by a fan asking her what her favourite birthday gift was.
Sophie, a mother of four, confirmed on Monday night she was in a new relationship by sharing a photo of herself cuddling a man in a green shirt.
While the man’s face wasn’t visible in her Instagram post, the shirt resembled one Jake, 33, was pictured wearing during filming in November.
The man’s upper-arm tattoos also appear to match Jake’s.
