They were seen having an animated conversation – likely over who would win the eating contest between them. 

It was then time for the pair to take to the stage for the competition.

Competing against the couple in the contest was Bachelorette star Apollo Jackson and MAFS groom Mike Gunner.

The competition comes after she and Todd confirmed their pregnancy on Christmas Day, following weeks of speculation, with a blossoming bump picture.

‘Our hearts are full, Christmas will be sweet. Our family is growing by one heart & two feet,’ the Instagram post read, adding: ‘Baby boy Carney due March 2021.’ 

Before the announcement, Todd also dropped a major hint Susie was pregnant, by uploading a photo of himself, Susie and her five-year-old daughter named Baby to Instagram alongside a very telling caption.

‘That Christmas feeling. I love you three,’ he captioned the post, referring to three people.

It’s been a busy year for the couple, who are not only celebrating their baby joy, but also the fact they secretly got engaged earlier in the year.

Susie, who previously appeared on Married At First Sight, gave away the news after referring to the former NRL player as her ‘sexy fiancé’ in an Instagram post shared in October.

But it’s not been the smoothest ride for the couple, who have had a tumultuous relationship ever since getting together back in January 2019. 

Susie first rose to fame after appearing on the fifth season of Married At First Sight, which was filmed in late 2018.

She married Billy Vincent, but they failed to find love with each other and eventually split up before the finale.
