Married At First Sight bride Alissa Fay has moved on with a new man after David Momoh dumped her during Final Vows<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Adelaide<\/a> native, 33, debuted her romance with Australian Ninja Warrior star Nathan Ryles on Wednesday after they were spotted packing on the PDA at a beach.<\/p>\n

Alissa called Nathan, 32, her ‘soulmate’ and said their ‘connection is something I’ve never experienced before’, reported New Idea<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘He was unexpected; we didn’t plan for this to happen, you know, it just happened so naturally. I believe that he is my person,’ she told the publication.<\/p>\n

‘I thought that I knew what love was, and I thought that I had felt love before, but this is a whole other feeling.’<\/p>\n

Nathan said he and Alissa ‘bring out the best in each other’, adding that he was ‘oblivious’ to her MAFS narrative because he didn’t watch the show.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Married At First Sight bride Alissa Fay, 33, has moved on with a new man after David Momoh, 31, dumped her during Final Vows<\/p>\n

‘She’s treated me better than I’ve ever been treated, and I just love her so much,’ he continued.<\/p>\n

Alissa revealed the pair have been hiding their relationship since December so they didn’t spoil the ending to her relationship with David, 31, on the Nine series<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The pair, who have already confessed their love for each other, said they had known of each other for years because they shared the same social circle in Adelaide.<\/p>\n

However, things between them began to heat up shortly after Alissa finished filming for MAFS, when they finally met on ‘a wine tour’ for her gym.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The relationship debut will come as a shock to some Daily Mail readers who may remember Alissa vehemently denied being in a relationship with Nathan last week.<\/p>\n

‘What is going on, all this speculation, he is engaged! I follow him and his fianc\u00e9e Tori on social media. We are friends, Adelaide is a small place,’ she told Daily Mail.<\/p>\n

‘Adelaide is just like that, everyone knows everyone! It is just noise.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

Daily Mail does not suggest Nathan was engaged at the time he and Alissa began dating, only that Alissa used it as a cover story to hide their relationship.<\/p>\n

Is it ever justifiable to hide a new relationship to protect reality TV secrets and reputations?<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

The Adelaide native debuted her romance with Australian Ninja Warrior star Nathan Ryles, 32, on Wednesday after they were spotted packing on the PDA at a beach<\/p>\n

It comes after Alissa was left red-faced on Tuesday night’s episode of MAFS after she was forced to deliver her final vows to an empty room<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After her groom David revealed he didn’t see a future with Alissa outside of the experiment, he brutally left her standing alone at the altar to process the rejection.<\/p>\n

It seemed to come as quite a shock to Alissa, who had earlier hinted that she was going to walk away and ‘break his heart’.<\/p>\n

Walking into Final Vows, Alissa was quietly confident David would choose to stay in the relationship but it seemed her mind was also made up.<\/p>\n

‘Today is going to be tough for David,’ she said. ‘He missed the mark because he was a “yes” man.’<\/p>\n

‘The ball is in my court today, and it breaks my heart knowing I’m going to be breaking his heart at the end of this.’<\/p>\n

However, David beat his bride to the punch, brutally walking away before Alissa had a chance to read her vows.<\/p>\n

He began his own vows praising Alissa and the strong connection the pair had forged during the experiment.<\/p>\n

\"Alissa <\/p>\n

Alissa called Nathan her ‘soulmate’ and said their ‘connection is something I’ve never experienced before’, reported New Idea<\/p>\n

David then told Alissa that his feelings about their relationship had changed during the final commitment ceremony.<\/p>\n

‘I finally spoke up,’ he said. ‘You accused me of blindsiding you and in that moment I realised something important.<\/p>\n

‘I wasn’t being heard. You couldn’t see I wasn’t attacking you \u2013 I was finally standing up for myself.’<\/p>\n

He added that their clash after the Grass is Greener challenge was the final nail in the coffin.<\/p>\n

‘You flirted, made inappropriate jokes and spoke poorly about me behind my back. I felt betrayed and disrespected by what I saw,’ he said.<\/p>\n

‘I challenged you and you shut me down. It felt as though you wouldn’t take any accountability for how I had felt.’<\/p>\n

David added: ‘Throughout all this, I’ve been patient, and I have done a lot of the listening, but I’m done listening.’<\/p>\n

Admitting that he still loved Alissa, David then delivered the final blow, telling his bride he chose his own peace over Alissa.<\/p>\n

\"The <\/p>\n

The relationship debut will come as a shock to some Daily Mail readers who may remember Alissa vehemently denied being in a relationship with Nathan last week<\/p>\n

‘With you there was no version of me that could win. I’ve realised I can’t be the man who constantly fights to be heard or constantly fights to prove his worth to someone who is still deciding if I’ll be enough,’ he said.<\/p>\n

‘Today I’m not walking away because I’ve stopped loving you, Alissa. I’m walking away because loving you shouldn’t mean losing myself.’<\/p>\n

With that, David walked out of Alissa’s life, leaving her looking quite shocked and angry.<\/p>\n

‘You’re not going to listen to my vows?’ she asked as David continued to walk away in silence.<\/p>\n

‘That’s a no?’ she added. ‘Wow, I just wasted three months of my life and he won’t even listen to me.’<\/p>\n

Alissa proceeded to read her vows aloud to an empty room, with David nowhere to be seen.<\/p>\n

‘David, you are everything I wanted and more. You are strong, you are kind, you are compassionate, you are a leader, but standing here today I can only be honest,’ she said, her voice echoing around the room.<\/p>\n

‘I love you, David, for who you are but not for me.’<\/p>\n

Despite making the decision to leave, David admitted he was ‘heartbroken.’<\/p>\n

‘There’s been so much pain that I’ve experienced in the last two weeks. I feel tremendously heartbroken. It felt that I was fighting for a relationship that someone wasn’t willing to fight for,’ he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Married At First Sight bride Alissa Fay has moved on with a new man after David Momoh dumped…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":592610,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[3443,64,63,100,134,16995,2017],"class_list":{"0":"post-592609","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-adelaide","9":"tag-au","10":"tag-australia","11":"tag-dailymail","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-married-at-first-sight-australia","14":"tag-tvshowbiz"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/592609","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=592609"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/592609\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/592610"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=592609"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=592609"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=592609"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
