While this year’s season of Married At First Sight finished airing over a month ago, several participants are hoping to extend their time in the spotlight by signing with talent agencies. This includes Carina Mirabile, Paul Antoine, and Eliot Donovan, who have all added their new management details to their Instagram bios since regaining access to their accounts on Monday.

It was also revealed last week that controversial groom Adrian Araouzou had joined PR queen Roxy Jacenko’s agency, Ministry Of Talent, which represents reality star Ash Pollard, The Block contestants Leah and Ash Milton, and influencer Costeen Hatzi. The agency proudly announced the news on social media alongside a gallery of photos of Adrian both on and off the show.

“Thrilled to announce that @adrian.araouzou is now represented by The Ministry of Talent for social media collabs and appearances!” they wrote. “Get in touch for opportunities.”

Many people were outraged upon seeing the post and commented that it was “disappointing” that Roxy would sign Adrian following his negative portrayal on MAFS.

Just three days after the announcement, however, fans began speculating that he had already been dropped by the agency. Entertainment reporter and content creator Beth Anne (@livingmy_bethlife) noticed that Adrian had removed his management details from his TikTok bio, and he was no longer listed on Ministry Of Talent’s website.

Roxy confirmed in a statement to Yahoo Lifestyle on Tuesday that Adrian is no longer a part of Ministry Of Talent’s roster, simply saying: “No, we do not rep Adrian.”

Adrian also confirmed that he and Ministry Of Talent had parted ways, telling us: “There are no hard feelings. I understand what it is.”

Interestingly, at the time of writing, Ministry Of Talent is yet to delete their Facebook post announcing that they are representing Adrian.

Adrian’s post-show plans

When asked about his career plans following his appearance on MAFS, Adrian tells Yahoo Lifestyle that he wants to “go back to what [he] was doing before”, which includes running his own e-commerce business.

“I plan on dissociating anything to do with MAFS,” he shares. “I enjoy creating content, so I’ll continue to keep on doing that just like I was doing before the show.

“I have other business ventures that I would like to explore and see where life takes me. I am an open book right now. Oh, [and] continue the quest to find my forever person.”

Adrian also recently announced that he will be selling his TikTok account, which currently has 103,000 followers, as he returns to his original social media profiles.
