Obtaining a partner visa can be a lengthy and stressful process, and the couple must provide evidence their relationship is ongoing and genuine.
Matthew and Annabel probably didn’t have much trouble with this, as their romance was documented from the very beginning with interviews and TV appearances.
They even appeared on Nine’s Today show when MAFS was still airing.
