MAFS groom fuels ‘secret affair’ rumours as he brands ‘attractive’ bride from rival couple ‘the female version of me’
MAFS groom Adam Nightingale has fulled ‘secret affair’ rumours with Amy Kenyon after branding her ‘attractive’ and 'the female version of me'.
During the series, Adam, 33, was married to Polly Sellman, 28, but he never truly connected with her on a romantic level despite them lasting as a couple until the final vows.
Meanwhile, Amy, 27, was overwhelmed by her TV husband Luke Debono's constant sexual innuendos and sickly-sweet compliments.
Appearing on FUBAR Radio's Access All Areas with hosts Bobby Norris and Ellen Coughlan, Adam didn’t hold back when asked who he would choose to recouple with from the show.
He confessed today: “I’d probably say Amy, just because she's an attractive lady, and I don’t think we would argue because we’re so alike."
He went on to describe their unique bond, adding, “We’re like the female and male version of each other, like we get each other’s banter.

"Me and Amy have said that we’ve got such a special friendship that we’d never want to jeopardise that.”
The pair’s close friendship has long been a talking point among fans, with many wondering if their connection might blossom into something more.
It's not the first time Adam's been forced to address romance rumours between the pair.
The Nottingham barber was grilled by BBC East Midlands about the pair's relationship just weeks ago.
Speaking inside his barbershop, Adam said: "Me and Amy, she's like the female version of me. We're so alike.
"We've both said to each other, yeah, we find each other attractive but our friendship's that good we'd never want to spoil that.
"So I've always said to Amy I'd rather have you as a friend in my life than nothing.
"I think me and Amy will be staying friends for, I'd like to think the rest of my life because she's someone that I do trust and I feel I can tell her anything."
"There's nothing romantic going on with me and Amy," insisted Adam. "We've been behaving, we're like best friends.
"I am on the market. I'm single, ready to mingle, I'm not getting married any time soon."
The pair risked sparking a feud after an eyebrow raising display at a recent cast party.
One snap shared on social media showed Adam jokingly proposing to Amy after they each split from their show partners.
Emma Barnes and Nathan Campbell posted a photo of them in the same pose - with fans suggesting it was a dig at their co-stars.
It followed Amy fuelling her bitter fall-out with Polly by sharing private messages between them.
Taking to Instagram, Amy shared WhatsApp messages from a fiery row with Polly, accusing her of spreading false rumours about her and Adam during partner swap week.
Amy, who insists that her relationship with Adam was purely platonic, accused Polly of being a hypocrite.
Screenshots revealed Polly had defended Amy in private conversations, but later appeared to fuel rumours about a potential affair during filming.
Amy told fans: "Proof that the rumours Polly’s fuelling aren't true."
In one exchange, Amy expressed her frustration, writing:
"I always said to you I'd rather you of told me anything you saw that was putting me in detriment, and you did.
