Ever since she started appearing in the trailers, we knew Coco Stedman would be one to watch on this year’s Married At First Sight.
Facebook has changed the way you receive your news and gossip. Scroll to end of this story to see how to keep up to date with WHO!
The 30-year-old Pilates studio owner made quite the first impression at the hens night when she met her fellow brides and quickly offended one when she made a joke about co-star Samantha’s ex who is 16 years her senior.
However Coco’s TV wedding wasn’t the first time she walked down the aisle – in 2018 the MAFS star tied the knot for real but she and her husband split after six months.
“He was a beautiful beautiful beautiful soul and I wish him nothing but the best in life but you sometimes it lasts in love and sometimes it hurts instead and I chose my career,” she told Nine.
On her wedding day, Coco looked unrecognisable to the bride we’re seeing on TV with her blonde hair. In fact, we had to do a double take!
Career certainly has been Coco’s main focus in life and in 2017, she left a job that was “slowly killing” her to start her own business and open her South Sydney Pilates studio, KX Miranda.
In May last year, Coco shared a sweet message to mark her business’ second birthday calling it her “baby” and “the love of my life.”
“What a wild journey” she mused on Instagram.
“If you’ve ever been through my doors know that I am so grateful and hope you loved it as much as I do. The tears I have cried have only been surpassed by the laughs we’ve had.”
For anyone who’s stalked her Instagram, there are plenty of snaps featuring her beloved studio as well as her enviable figure. Excuse us while we book in a Pilates workout!
Over the years, Coco certainly has embraced her glamorous side and regularly takes to her Instagram to share selfies and sexy bikini snaps.
However, she’s admitted that she too has felt insecure on social media and compared herself to other women.
“It’s pretty wild, whenever my friends say anything to me about people on Instagram I always pipe up with ‘yeah, but you’re seeing their highlight reel, edited photos, photos during a shred, filters etc etc’,” she wrote on Instagram in January.
“But even yesterday, I caught myself looking at a girl on the gram and thinking ‘wish I could look like that’ but I pulled myself out of it pretty quickly. Your worth is never defined by how pretty you are or how good your body is. It’s your values, how you treat the people around you and your own perception of the world.”
She added: “I try to do multiple things every day to work towards my goals and I think that’s pulled me away from striving for perfection and thinking I’m not worthy unless I am perfect. Just chip away, inch by inch, mile by mile. Love the process. Strive but don’t diminish your own worth in the mean time.”
Coco is also something of a psychic and has explained the reason why she decided to apply for the show and find her perfect match.
“I decided to come on Married At First Sight because the universe wanted me to,” she told Nine.
“I have my angel sign that I put out into the universe and it’s blueberry muffins and no joke every day where I was like ‘Should I do this?’ boom, blueberry muffins would just randomly pop up.”
Coco added that she’s never cheated in a relationship (“I am loyal to the soil baby!”) and reckons she’s single because she won’t settle for anything less than amazing.
So long as her partner doesn’t disrespect her, dim her light or tell her what to wear, things should be ok!
