MAFS' Brent breaks silence on 'couple swap' rumours: 'Good luck'

MAFS star Brent Vitiello has broken his silence following rumours he and 'wife' Tamara Djordjevic have couple swapped with Ella Ding and Mitch Eynaud.

Last week, Brent was spotted at the beach with Ella in Sydney, while Tamara was spotted with Mitch on the Gold Coast.

According to New Idea, Tamara and Mitch "appeared close as they enjoyed the day together".

Meanwhile, Daily Mail reported that Ella and Brent "only had eyes for each other" when they were spotted together on Valentine's Day.

However, it seems all was not as it seems with Yahoo Lifestyle obtaining video of Brent chatting with a photographer while out shopping in Bondi.

Speaking with the photographer, Brent explained, "Me and Ella are just good friends."

When asked why they spent Valentine's Day together, he responded, "What [people] didn't see is the fact that [Domenica Calarco] was there as well. Dom was there the whole day, she was just cut out [of the pictures]."

When the photographer questioned whether Brent knew Tamara and Mitch had been spotted together, he wasn't surprised, "[They] have, on multiple occasions, I saw that. Why not? Um, good luck to them, I guess."

When the topic of his relationship with Tamara is brought up, Brent says with a laugh, "We're okay, we're doing good. Civil, good... long distance."

Unsurprisingly, Brent wasn't wearing his ring during the chat, telling the photographer with a smile, "I just came from the gym so I take it off whilst I train."

Brent and Tamara's relationship has been on the rocks with the pair fighting during the commitment ceremony.

The groom told the experts his 'wife' "stood over me and called me a c***", with the pair saying the other was lying about the situation.

Meanwhile, Ella and Mitch also fought on the show last week with Mitch being slammed by the experts on Sunday night for being "demeaning" and "condescending".

In photos obtained by Yahoo Lifestyle taken soon after the ceremony was filmed, things didn't seem to be going too well for the couple with Mitch more interested in his phone than he was in Ella.

Ella has previously told us she felt as though her relationship with Mitch progressed the most when the cameras weren't rolling as he wasn't very comfortable being vulnerable in front of others.
