The upcoming series of Channel Nine’s hit dating experiment Married At First Sight is currently being filmed and it looks to be off to a very chaotic start.
Big Brother star Teejay Halkias, 27, who is joining the series as an intruder, was spotted in Sydney on Tuesday looking frustrated as his wedding was held up for a very odd reason.
Teejay’s wedding to his TV star bride Bethy Kelly was significantly delayed as it was being filmed in the heart of the CBD – while a trade union protest was held in the same location.
In footage obtain by Daily Mail Australia, Teejay looked impatient and annoyed as he waited for CFMEU protesters to make their way across the street, so he could resume filming.
The Brisbane-based model kept himself busy by chatting to film crew as they were forced to wait for the protesters to finish chanting.
Fortunately, the dashing model was able to resume filming once the protesters had made their way across the street.
It comes after Daily Mail Australia revealed that the former Big Brother Australia star is set to join season 12 of MAFS as an intruder.
With an impressive background in high-profile runway shows, TV commercials and music videos, Teejay is ready to bring his A-game to the dinner parties.
