In the post, Tori was glowing as she posed with a new man named Michael, hidden behind dark sunglasses.
She captioned the photos with nothing but a single rocket emoji, appearing to reference the ‘hard launch’ of her new relationship.
The couple beamed in matching black formal wear, as Tori wrapped her arm around her new man, wearing a plunging sheer lace halter top and matching satin skirt.
Friends and followers were quick to catch on to the relationship announcement. As one fan commented, “Me doing a double take 👀, absolutely love this though”, new beau Michael replied with two face-hiding emojis: “🫣🫣“.
“OH I AM OBSESSED 😍,” celebrated one follower.
“Best I’ve ever seen u look. Happiness looks great on you 💖,” commented another.
While most fans commented on much Tori was “glowing” in her new romance, others couldn’t help but bring up the former bride’s MAFS ex Jack.

“I don’t understand why people can’t post well wishes without taking jabs at past relationships,” one follower wrote in her defence.
Tori’s announcement comes months after Jack revealed his own new relationship – Tori was one of the first to publicly show her support.
In May 2026, the groom shared a video revealing a mystery new woman, and said he was “Forever grateful, especially for the little things”.
“Love this! 🥹,” wrote Tori and Jack replied: “Always appreciate you 🫶“.

Tori and Jack ruffled feathers on MAFS 2024 but were one of the only couples still standing strong at the end.
They continued their relationship post-experiment and lived together on the Gold Coast until their shock split after two years together in March 2025.
"We just kind of got to a point where we never took that next step of really falling deeply in love with one another," Tori told nine.com.au of the split.
She called the break-up "the most boring, normal thing ever".

Despite the end of their relationship, both Tori and Jack have made it clear they're still close friends.
They even continued to live together as friends until Tori moved back to her hometown of Melbourne in January.
"Jack and I are able to maintain a really beautiful, close friendship," Tori said in December.
"No one did anything wrong, which is why I've been able to live here for the past nine months ... we've just been co-existing as friends and it's been great."
In November 2025, they attended the TikTok Awards together and even holidayed in Bali with friends over Christmas.
Though fans of the series have expressed respect for how Tori and Jack have conducted themselves after the experiment, during the 2024 series they became one of the most controversial pairings in MAFS′ history.
They faced scrutiny from the other participants who did not believe their relationship was real and Jack’s words regularly meant he was at the centre of drama, meaning many doubted their romance would last.
While things didn't work out in the end, Tori told nine.com.au she still looked back fondly on their time together.
"Jack and I have had a massive two years. It feels like we've been together for five and we've gone through 10 years' worth of life experiences," she said.
