MAFS 2024: Man stunned by Australian beauty standards after watching show and says Natalie would be considered a ‘queen’ in most countries – after bride said she will never be a ‘Bondi babe’

A man has won the hearts of Aussie women after calling Married At First Sight Australia’s Natalie Parham a ‘queen’ and branding Australian beauty standards ‘unrealistic’.

During her introduction to the show, Natalie insisted she was very different to the other girls in the experiment and will never be a ‘Bondi babe’. 

TikTok user Mr Munzara, who has over 19,000 followers on the social media platform, shared a video of himself talking over a picture of Natalie on her wedding day, and said the brunette bride was too hard on herself.

‘This woman…the first time I saw her I was like “wow, she’s got a smile like Anne Hathaway!” This smile right here is the smile of a Genovian leader,’ he said, referring to the fairytale city from Anne Hathaway’s hit 2001 film The Princess Diaries. 

‘From what she’s saying, I get it, she doesn’t fit “Bondi beauty” standards… This is a message for anyone who grew up thinking they’re not beautiful, but look like this on their wedding day! You’re not ugly!’

‘I need to say this with two hands: You’re. Not. Ugly.’ 

It comes as Natalie and her newfound husband Collins Christian shocked viewers of Nine’s reality matchmaking show on Monday night when they left the experiment. 

Natalie called time on her marriage to Collins after he showed no affection to her on the honeymoon.

‘It just doesn’t feel real and right. I’d rather him be honest than just put this mask on,’ Natalie explained before they both agreed to leave.

Natalie, visibly distressed and far from her usual ‘happy bubbly self,’ addressed the group with a heartfelt goodbye.

‘Being here has been a big challenge for me,’ she confessed, signalling the end of her journey on the show.

Collins, echoing her sentiment, acknowledged the difficulty of their decision.

‘I just want to say, before you guys come up, um it’s really tough, but look, we’re all here for love, right?’ he said.

After sharing the news with his co-stars, Collins could be seen breaking down behind the scenes.

‘It’s over. Oh my God. I cancelled everything. I have to go back to work tomorrow,’ he said.

But all is not lost between the pair, as Natalie returned during the following episode in a last ditched effort to make it with Collins.
