It certainly wasn’t the fairytale beginning the Married At First Sight matchmakers were hoping for.

As the effervescent Clare walked down the aisle, a horrified Jono couldn’t quite come to terms with what he was seeing.

“Ahh sh–!” He cried.

“She’s basically the opposite of what I expected to walk down the aisle. She’s not what I ordered,” the 28-year-old fumed, before adding his type is “small” and “brunette.”

Although Jono spent the evening of their wedding getting to know Clare and admitted “she is really funny”, it appears the reality star has already moved on with a new love interest.

In an Instagram photo obtained by The Daily Mail Australia, the self-proclaimed “man’s man” cuddles up to Melbourne resident Rachael Baxter.

“You annoy the absolute s–t out of me, but there’s no one else I could imagine waking up next to every morning #soppypost #mrperfect #thanksforbeingyou,” Rachel reportedly penned alongside the photo, which had Instagram user @JonoPitman19 tagged.

In a telling sign, the cosy image – which was uploaded on March 12 – has since been deleted.

The polarising dating show was filmed in November last year. Jono and Channel Nine are yet to comment on the claims.

Meanwhile Jono’s match Clare has spoken out over his controversial comments, telling TV Week she was disappointed by his reaction.

“It’s not a case of getting what you order. I am what I am and I’m not a McDonald’s meal.”

“He wanted a short brunette, athletic person and in rocks a giant feminist blonde,” the 31-year-old explained.

Is this Jono’s new squeeze? Last month, Rachael Baxter uploaded a cosy couple shot with Jono on her Instagram page. The photo has since been deleted.
