Married At First Sight groom Scott McCristal has officially moved on from his relationship with TV bride Gia Fleur.

The Gold Coast finance broker, 33, has confirmed exclusively to Daily Mail that he is dating Gold Coast registered nurse, cosmetic injector and model Brienna Stockdale.

The couple looked loved-up as ever as they hard-launched their relationship while attending Prestige Rental’s exclusive yacht party on board the Queen Royal.

Scott revealed the pair have been quietly seeing each other since the start of the year after reconnecting following his dramatic split from his on-screen bride in October.

And in an unexpected twist, Brienna actually knew Scott before his reality TV fame – having treated him at her aesthetic clinic before he entered the MAFS experiment.

'I don't want to hide it anymore,' Scott told Daily Mail. 'I want to be able to show my girlfriend, because I'm proud of her and I'm proud of the relationship I have.'

Asked whether publicly debuting Brienna marked the end of his MAFS chapter, Scott was definitive.

'One hundred per cent,' he said.

Scott explained that while he had known Brienna casually before the show, romance didn't blossom until after filming wrapped.

'She did my Botox,' he said. Scott decided to make his move with what he admits was a playful excuse.

'Just after the start of the year I messaged her and said, "Have you got some face cream at the clinic?"' he laughed.

'There was more my subtle way-in. But she knew I was full of it.'

That message sparked a romance that quickly escalated.

Their first date included stand-up paddleboarding at Tallebudgera Creek, followed by dinner on the Gold Coast.

'We had a wholesome time,' Scott said.

'We hit it off from there.'

The pair only made things official last week.

For Brienna, Scott's personality was an immediate attraction.

'His loud, bubbly personality,' she told Daily Mail on Saturday.

Scott said their relationship feels completely different from his previous experience on MAFS.

'Trust, respect, gratefulness – the politeness I get, and just the understanding of Brie,' he said.

'She's in a similar space in terms of social media and business and has the same sort of goals.'

'She understands me. We're so aligned it works well.'

He added that their lifestyles complement each other perfectly.

'Bree gets up at 5am, we go to the gym together, we're both on our laptops, we're both working hard. She's got high energy like me.'

Scott's new romance comes after his highly publicised breakup from mother-of-one Gia, which unfolded in explosive scenes both on and off screen.

Following the MAFS reunion, Scott accused Gia of making him feel belittled throughout their relationship.

'She made me feel like s***,' he previously told Daily Mail. 'I'll never let someone walk over me again.'

Meanwhile, Gia has since moved on with boyfriend Alan Wallace, with Daily Mail previously revealing she first connected with him while still filming MAFS.
