Former Married At First Sight star Ivan Sarakula has shocked fans by unveiling his brand new hair look.
WATCH: Ivan says coronavirus is a conspiracy
The season seven groom, who was matched with bride Aleks Markovic during the program’s most recent series earlier this this year, took to Instagram on Monday to show off his longer locks in a cheeky poolside snap.
Lying shirtless beside a pool at a property in Clareville Beach, a coastal suburb about an hour north of Sydney, Ivan captioned his photo, “Hydrated … #longhairdont care #holidays #summer #poolside #vibe”.
In a video shared to his Instagram stories, Ivan revealed his new hair was tied up into a loose man bun, as he spent time with fellow MAFS groom Mikey Pembroke.
Ivan’s fans immediately took to the comments section on his post to praise the star over his new look.
“I love your hair + this shot 🔥,” one person wrote, while another commented, “Looking like a snack.”
While Aleks and Ivan left the show earlier this year as a couple, the pair split shortly after the reunion episode was filmed.
Aleks revealed the couple split because their “values … didn’t align.”
“Ivan and I dated until February when the relationship ended. Our values, wants, needs and lifestyles didn’t align, and that’s ok. I wish him nothing but the best,” Aleks explained on Instagram at the time.
“Please respect my privacy on the matter as just like anyone out in the ‘real’ world, some relationships just don’t work out.
“My MAFS journey was one that I will never forget. I learnt so much about myself and what I truly want and need for myself and in a partner. I do not doubt that my soulmate is out there somewhere.”
It’s believed both Ivan and Aleks are still single, despite the blonde former bride being linked to Bachelor Locky Gilbert several months ago.
Production has commenced on the 2021 season of Married At First Sight, following significant delays due to the coronavirus pandemic.
But the show will look slightly different next year.
Expert Dr Trisha Stratford has officially left the show and will be replaced by a new expert, Puerto Rican sexologist and TV presenter Alessandra Rampolla.
