MAFS Australia: Ella Ding and Brent Vitiello get cosy at Sydney beach

They are both partnered with different people on Married At First Sight.

But Brent Vitiello and Ella Ding only had eyes for each other as they hit Maroubra Beach in Sydney on the most romantic day of the year, Valentine’s Day.

The sighting will raise eyebrows given that Brent is paired with Tamara Djordjevic on MAFS, and Ella is coupled up with Mitch Eynaud.

Beautician Ella showed off her incredible figure in a skimpy b!kini top and matching G-string bottoms as she walked along the shore with Brent.

She secured her brunette locks with a large clip and concealed her gaze behind dark sunglasses.

After a refreshing dip in the ocean, she stretched out on a pink beach towel while Brent applied sunscreen to her back.

Meanwhile, the handsome hospitality specialist showcased his extensive tattoo collection by going shirtless in just a pair of green boardshorts.

Tellingly, Brent wasn’t wearing his wedding ring; however, Ella was wearing hers.

Hmm! The sighting will raise eyebrows given that Ella is coupled up with Mitch Eynaud (left)…

Ella wed part-time model Mitch, 26, on this year’s season of Married At First Sight.

‘The dating world is pretty brutal,’ she said in her introductory video. ‘I feel like I’ve tried and done it all, and what I attract is f**k boys [and] commitment phobias.’

‘I haven’t had a boyfriend, like someone to call my boyfriend, in nine years,’ she added.

Despite being sceptical of the experiment, Mitch was instantly attracted to Ella.

The feeling was mutual, and the couple spent several minutes complimenting each other’s appearance.

‘My heart is racing, she’s beautiful,’ he told producers. ‘She has great energy, a great smile, great eyes.’

He then got down on one knee and proposed to her at the altar.

Once it was time for their wedding photo shoot, the pair couldn’t keep their hands off each other and passionately made out in front of the photographer.

When asked by a producer if she felt any sexual chemistry, Ella gushed: ‘F**k yeah, he’s gorgeous!’

Chemistry: Ella and Brent appeared to be comfortable in each other’s company as they chatted

Meanwhile, events organiser Brent was paired with Gold Coast-based operations manager Tamara on MAFS.

Brent was left shell-shocked at the commitment ceremony on Sunday night when Tamara, 29, admitted she wasn’t sure whether he was ‘good enough’ for her.

Despite their lack of chemistry, however, they both elected to stay in the experiment for another week.

Ella and Mitch likewise decided to stay, which wasn’t a surprise to viewers given the amount of sex they had on their honeymoon.

Tamara and Brent’s relationship has been rocky throughout the experiment.

During the season premiere, Tamara shocked her ‘husband’ by saying she could never date someone who works in retail because it’s ‘below her’.

But it was just the beginning of the drama, as the pair repeatedly clashed on their wedding day.

‘He does seem like an average kind of guy. Average just isn’t for me. I’m not average. I don’t do average,’ the surgically enhanced blonde told producers.

Her audition tape was also aired on last Tuesday’s episode, in which she described herself as a ‘b**ch’ and complained about men who drive ‘really ugly cars’.

Married At First Sight continues Tuesday at 7:30pm on Channel Nine and 9Now
