Married At First Sight: Inside Stacey Hampton’s expensive lifestyle

Married At First Sight’s Stacey Hampton gave Michael Goonan a glimpse of her lavish lifestyle when she welcomed him into her Adelaide home on Monday.

The 26-year-old law graduate drives a $90,000 Range Rover Velar, boasts a $20,000 shoe collection and has more designer handbags than some department stores.

But many viewers were left wondering on Twitter how the single mother-of-two could afford such luxuries.

It turns out Stacey inherited a significant sum of money from her father and brother’s estates following their tragic deaths several years ago.

She put the money into a family trust, which she later used to start several business ventures in South Australia. 

‘I had my own financial stability [before MAFS] with more than Michael could have provided,’ said Stacey, hitting back at claims she’s a ‘gold digger’.

During Monday’s homestay episode, Michael, who is a millionaire company director, was left speechless by Stacey’s lifestyle. 

‘Stacey’s definitely got expensive tastes. To be honest with you, thinking of the price [of her bags], makes me cringe a little bit,’ he said while exploring her home.

‘We’ve got the pimped out Range Rover, a Louis Vuitton expo in the cupboard and a Valentino shoe collection that’d make Marilyn Monroe look frugal.

‘I work hard, but Stacey wants a Hollywood lifestyle. I can’t keep up with that.’

The couple later clashed as Stacey joked about becoming a ‘trophy wife’. 

A surprised Michael asked Stacey if she wanted a ‘full traditional’ relationship, and the blonde beauty said she did.

‘Yeah, and I’ll spend it,’ she added of Michael’s money, prompting the millionaire businessman to raise his eyebrows.

When Michael asked Stacey if ‘housewife’ was her ‘calling’, she quickly corrected him, telling him she thought of herself as a ‘trophy wife’.
