Married At First Sight golden couple Jeff Gobbels and Rhi Disljenkovic have split.
The couple, who became fan favourites on season twelve of the Channel Nine dating experiment, called time on their relationship one year after finding love on the show.
A source told Daily Mail they’ve been ‘living apart for weeks’ and their relationship fizzled out due to a lack of effort.
‘Jeff was not putting in any effort with Rhi. They stopped going out on dates,’ said a friend.
The pair have since unfollowed each other on Instagram.
It is also understood that Jeff, 40, is heading to the UK solo for business.
Married At First Sight golden couple Jeff Gobbels and Rhi Disljenkovic have split
Jeff and Rhi, 36, first met in 2023 and dated for a month – before their relationship fizzled out.
The couple were caught by surprise when they found themselves paired on Channel Nine’s ratings juggernaut in 2025.
In January 2025, Rhi broke her silence about the shocking moment she came face–to–face with her groom – only to realise he was an ex.
‘It was surreal. You sign up for an experiment where you’re marrying a stranger. And then… I married someone who I’d already dated! A pretty crazy experience,’ Rhi began.
Rhi’s overwhelming surprise was crystal clear when she walked down the aisle, and immediately recognised Jeff.
‘I think the look on my face and me stopping at the end of the aisle says it all,’ she added.
‘I remember thinking, “How is this going to work?”
‘That was what made me stop… I was shocked to see him standing there!’ she said.

In May 2025, the couple took a huge step in their relationship by moving in together.
At the time, the pair revealed a surprising secret – they were yet to have their first argument, reported 9Entertainment.
Rhi and Jeff opened up about their blissful domestic set up in an interview with the publication, saying living together had brought them closer.
‘I know we did live together in the experiment, but [moving in together outside the experiment] really just cemented our strong relationship,’ Rhi told the publication.
Jeff described the decision as a ‘big’ moment for their relationship.
