Ella From ‘MAFS’ Has Officially Hard-Launched Her New Boyfie
We all remember Ella Ding from her trainwreck of a relationship with Mitch Eynaud that played out on last year’s season of Married at First Sight. While her quest for love on reality TV didn’t work out, it appears she’s had more luck in the real world as she’s officially hard-launched her new boyfriend on Instagram.
Ella dropped some breadcrumbs about a potential relationship earlier this month when she shared a photo of a mystery man staring lovingly into her eyes. However, she didn’t tag him and simply captioned the carousel of photos “29th chapter begins”.
Then on an inconspicuous Monday, Ella apparently decided it was time to let the world — or at least her Instagram followers — know about her new partner. She posted a series of food pics from Melbourne’s Il Barcaro Cucina E Bar and slid a sneaky caption in which read, “you’ll want to see the last photo.”

After scrolling through what feels like 50 photos of food, there it was: a photo of Ella and a very tall man with their arms around each other. In an effort to make sure that the man wasn’t mistaken for a pal, Ella confirmed the relationship by… actually writing the words “hard launch” over the same photo in her Instagram Story.
Awww.
Ella’s former MAFS co-stars jumped into the comments section to send their well wishes. Jack Millar wrote ‘WOOOOOOOOO’ while Kate Laidlaw penned, “Cute, Happy for you.”
Ella didn’t tag her new man in any of the pics, but switched-on sleuths have managed to identify him as Guy Palermo, who sadly has his Instagram switched to private.
She also hasn’t spoken publicly about their relationship, but not to worry, an anonymous source (truly, so many of them out there) dished the dirt to Daily Mail Australia.
“Her boyfriend is very low-key, no one knows who he is. They’ve known each other for six years and he’s been pursuing her in that time. Love was right in front of them the whole time,” the insider said. Cute!
