MAFS NZ’s Brook Crompton Pregnant & Engaged After ‘TV Ratings’ Marriage

Married at First Sight Australia’s Brook Crompton is pregnant and engaged, but not to the man she “married” on the reality television program. Crompton, 27, confirmed she is expecting a child with her former boyfriend, Harry, 28, after reconnecting following her experience on the show, according to multiple reports.

The revelation comes after Crompton’s split from Chris Nield, her on-screen husband, who she described as being motivated by “TV ratings.” “I guess it made me realise how amazing Harry is. He’s nothing like that person I married on MAFS,” Crompton said. “He’d never fat-shame a woman or speak about anyone badly. He sees the beauty in everyone. I’ve actually never been with someone that speaks about women that poorly.”

Crompton said she immediately knew Nield was not a suitable partner. “So right from the get-go, I was like, ‘This person is not for me.’” She discovered she was pregnant after experiencing a vivid dream that prompted her to take a pregnancy test.

The couple became engaged just over a month later during a Christmas holiday in Aspen. “This represents everything I’ve ever wanted to be with a partner who supports me and loves me,” Crompton stated.

News of Crompton’s pregnancy and engagement has reportedly shocked those involved with the production of Married at First Sight. A source close to the show told Latest Idea that Nield was “totally blown away” by the news. “The cast heard whispers quite a while ago that Brook had fallen pregnant after filming ended, but it was fully confirmed to them a few weeks ago. Chris 100% had feelings for Brook. He was really into her, so he was more shocked than anyone.”

Other cast members reportedly observed Crompton making frequent trips back to the Gold Coast during filming, leading to speculation she was rekindling her relationship with Harry, according to the Daily Mail. Crompton and Harry had previously broken up in April of last year, just three months before filming for the show began, though Crompton maintains they did not communicate during production.

Despite the public attention surrounding her relationship, Crompton expressed a lack of concern over outside commentary. “We don’t have time for the drama, we have bigger fish to fry,” she said.

Chris Nield has broken his silence following the confirmation of Crompton’s pregnancy and reunion with her ex-boyfriend, though his specific comments have not been widely reported.
