The pair have remained friends since splitting, and in fact, Matthew is now married to Poh’s best friend and Jamface business partner, Sarah Rich. 

Poh and Matt met in 1990- at the time both were Mormons – and were married for nine years.  

They remain close friends and Poh has told Woman’s Weekly that they ‘still love one another’ and he’s ‘like a brother’ despite a very difficult split.

Despite their unorthodox friendship, Poh has previously insisted the group’s dynamic works.

In an interview with Woman’s Day back in 2017, actor and DJ Jono – who married Poh in 2014 – admitted he was initially jealous of Matt’s close bond with his wife.

‘It was something we all had to work on essentially. I know it’s very human to be jealous, but it doesn’t make it right,’ he told the publication at the time.

The elimination was emotional, with judge Melissa Leong calling Poh a ‘national treasure’.

Poh was graceful in defeat, saying: ‘It’s been everything that I wanted it to be. I’m a risk taker, and that’s what happened today, you know. 

‘I met my demise finally. But I’ve had such a fantastic time. It’s just been such a joy to cook with these guys.’
