‘Married At First Sight’ star Hugo Armstrong looks very different after his stint on the reality show as he reunites with his former co-stars
Hugo Armstrong was at parties with his former Married At First Sight co-stars this weekend.
The 32-year-old was joined by Bronte Schofield, Alyssa Barmonde, Sandy Jawanda and Lyndall Grace.
The former reality star looked different from when she was on the show, appearing sportier and more shaved.
Earlier this year, the groom was said to be “absolutely furious” after gaining just 4,000 new Instagram followers after appearing on Channel Nine’s top-rated show.
Hugo began his journey of finding love with 300 followers, but despite having plenty of screen time, that number had risen to just 4,269 by March.

He now has over 30,000 followers, while his ex-wife Tayla Winter has 118,000 followers.
An anonymous cast member revealed that Hugo had high hopes for fame and saw himself as the “new Al Perkins” – a popular groom from last season.
Instead, he frets about his dismal popularity on social media.
“Even before he came on the show, Hugo just wanted to make it as big as Al,” the insider told Chron Australia.

“He was convinced he was going to be the next fan favorite and now he’s absolutely furious that he made little difference in the fanbase.”
“He really wanted to be the funny one, but when reality kicked in, his ego got a reality check.”
Hugo’s lackluster social media following has left him overshadowed by his wife Tayla, who was recently embroiled in a sexting scandal with co-star Cameron Woods.
