Harrogate 'Married at First Sight' contestant confirms surprise relationship with co-star Harrogate Married at First Sight star Matt Pilmoor has confirmed he has been in a secret relationship with one of his co-stars on the show. Audiences saw the conclusion to the popular E4 show last night (Thursday) when Matt and his ‘wife’ Adrienne Naylor decided to part ways. But today, 29-year-old Matt has confirmed he has been in a secret relationship with a different co-star - 31-year-old Shona Anderson. Shona had been paired with Brad Kelly on the show but parted with her ‘husband’ to focus on herself. But both her and Matt have been secretly dated since filming the show earlier this year. Shona has today posted photos of herself kissing Harrogate’s Matt Pilmoor on her Instagram page (@shoniemandy). She told OK! Magazine:

“We have a really healthy, happy, safe, fun, relationship - I really appreciate Matt so much, it's what I deserve, we deserve each other. “I'm proud to be his girlfriend and it just works.”
The pair had been keeping their relationship quiet until the conclusion of the show to avoid spoiling it for fans. Matt said:
“We had to do what we had to do, my experience was good but we were meant to go on those journeys to find each other. "We were meant to go on those journeys to find each other."
The pair said they waited just over a month before meeting up after the reunion. Read more local stories from Your Harrogate here.
