Former Married At First Sight bride Hayley Vernon has made a commitment to healthy living after taking time off her hectic training schedule.

The former reality TV star, 38, shared a clip to social media on Thursday revealing she is ‘boarding the rehab train’ in an effort to heal an injured knee. 

‘Today is Day One. After dealing with a wonky knee I finally had an MRI and have a grade two PCL-tear – Something I’ve done before,’ she began.

‘All aboard the rehab train as I push to get my discipline and lifestyle back after 10 weeks off training.’

Despite her injury, she looked to be in good spirits in the footage, smiling brightly while holding a coffee in one hand and a dog leash in the other.

Last year, Hayley opened up about her mental health struggles in a raw Instagram post after making the decision to step away from her adult career.

In the emotional message, she expressed fears she might ‘crumble’ under the weight of the recent life transition.

‘I’m fearful. And it’s making me upset. I don’t crumble over much but fear of loss is my weak point, from someone who has come from nothing it worries me and today it’s got the best of me,’ she wrote.

‘Sometimes even the “strong” people need a hand,’ she added.

‘I’m changing and have changed my entire life, it’s for the better but it’s also petrifying to do alone.

‘Funny because I’ve done everything alone. Even reading this back I know that I always land on my feet.

‘Today I’m not okay. I’m upset, a little scared and I’m trying my best to know I’m not alone. 

‘I’m having to rely on other people and so far it’s proving difficult.’

Hayley rose to fame on the 2020 season of Channel Nine’s MAFS, in which she was paired with David Cannon. 

The pair were forced off the show by relationship expert John Aiken during a commitment ceremony.

After her time on the show, she went on to have a career in the adult entertainment industry before quitting and turning to God.
