Married At First Sight star Hugo Armstrong looks very different after his time on the reality show as he reunites with former co-stars

Hugo Armstrong was out partying with his former Married At First Sight co-stars this weekend. 

The 32-year-old was accompanied by Bronte Schofield, Alyssa Barmonde, Sandy Jawanda and Lyndall Grace. 

The former reality star was looking different to his time on the show, sporting a more buff and shaven appearance.

Earlier this year, the groom was said to be ‘absolutely livid’ after gaining a measly 4,000 new Instagram followers after appearing on the top-rating Channel Nine show. 

Hugo began his journey to find love with 300 followers, but despite having plenty of screen time, this number had grown to just 4,269 in March.

He now sits at over 30,000 while his ex-wife Tayla Winter boasts 118,000 followers.

An anonymous cast member revealed Hugo had high hopes of skyrocketing to fame, and saw himself as the ‘new Al Perkins’ – a popular groom from last year’s season.

Instead, he has been left fuming over his dismal popularity on social media.

‘Even before he got on the show, all Hugo wanted was to make it big like Al,’ the insider told Daily Mail Australia.

‘He was convinced he would be the next fan favourite, and now he is absolutely fuming over the fact he has barely made a dent in the follower department.

‘He was desperate to be the funny one, but when reality kicked in, his ego was given a reality check.’

Hugo’s lackluster social media following has seen him overshadowed by his on-screen wife Tayla, who recently found herself at the centre of a sexting scandal with co-star Cameron Woods.

He now sits at over 30,000 while his ex-wife Tayla Winter boasts 118,000 followers
