The next series of Channel Nine’s hit dating experiment Married At First Sight is currently filming and looks set to get off to a very chaotic start.
Big Brother star Teejay Halkias, 27, who joins the series as an outsider, was spotted in Sydney on Tuesday looking frustrated that his wedding was delayed for a very strange reason.
Teejay’s wedding to his girlfriend, TV star Bethy Kelly, was significantly delayed because it was being filmed in the heart of the CBD while a union protest was taking place at the same location.
In footage obtained by Daily Mail Australia, Teejay appeared impatient and upset as he waited for CFMEU protesters to cross the road so filming could resume.
The Brisbane-based model was kept busy chatting to the film crew as they were forced to wait for the protesters to finish singing.
Fortunately, the gorgeous model was able to resume filming once the protesters crossed the street.
This comes after Daily Mail Australia revealed that the former Big Brother Australia star will be joining MAFS season 12 as an outsider.
With an impressive track record in high-profile runways, TV commercials and music videos, Teejay is ready to bring his best to the dinner table.
