Married At First Sight star Michael Shiakallis Jr. revealed a relationship update with Chloe Brown after the couple’s breakup during the marriage experiment. Michael married Chloe after the experts rematched them during the experiment when Michael’s original bride ran away, leaving the couple to get married six weeks after the original four couples. The couple experienced immediate chemistry from the time they saw each other at the altar. However, with Chloe and Michael entering the experiment late, they had a lot of work to do to catch up and get to know each other better, which was a challenge at times.
Michael from Married At First Sight subtly revealed where his relationship with Chloe Brown stands after he shared an Instagram post of the two embracing.
