Married At First Sight star Mike Gunner has finally confirmed the rumour that's plagued him throughout the series.
The theory that the bald groom has had a hairline tattooed onto his scalp gained traction from almost the first episode he appeared in — and we now know it's true.
Does Mike his hair line tattooed onto his head. It’s a thing. Explains his weird looking hair line #MAFS
"Someone has rung us and told us that you've had the tattoo done on the top of your head," Fitzy told him.
He's finally confirmed the persistent rumour.
Mike gave cagey responses to begin with, but eventually conceded he'd undergone the procedure, adding: "But how good do I look!"
After Fitzy — who's also bald — joked that he'd look into doing it, Mike offered to help him out.
"I've got a great guy, I'll put you in touch," he told the radio host.
During the interview, Mike also spilled on his previous brush with reality TV stardom and recent speculation that at least half this year's cast of MAFS are paid actors.
"Another rumour that's going around — were you close to getting on Survivor?" Fitzy asked.
"I love Survivor, but I'm glad I never did it because I wouldn't have done MAFS," he replied.
Mike's hairline sparked suspicion among viewers.
"A couple of years ago I threw my hat in the ring with Survivor and got close enough — but clearly they didn't choose me, and here we are."
MAFS bosses were forced to deny claims they'd hired actors for this season, which has easily been the most explosive yet.
Sam Ball and Melissa Lucarelli have both appeared in small roles on Home And Away, while Susie Bradley and Billy Vincent have done commercials, and Dino Hira and Jessika Power actually appeared together in an ad for an optical company.
