Bao Hoang is one of the many cast members that left Married At First Sight season 13 on a sour note, but since departing from the experimental dating show, Bao has found her happy ending. Bao endured a challenging marriage with her college friend Johnny in season 13 as fans agreed the groom was quick to criticize his former wife. From celebrating the conclusion of her turbulent adventure on Married At First Sight to her burgeoning relationship with a fellow season 13 cast member, here's everything there is to know about Bao since Decision Day.
Initially, fans had high hopes for Bao and Johnny. Not only were these newlyweds the first to have a Vietnamese wedding in the hit dating series, Johnny and Bao also had a fascinating relationship history before tying the knot. While every other couple that's swapped vows in Married At First Sight hadn't set eyes on each other before meeting at the altar, Johnny's was a familiar face to Bao. During their college years, Bao had been introduced to Johnny, although eventually ghosted her. At first, Bao and Johnny's previous experience together appeared to be a strength. Sadly, Johnny conveyed more aggravation than affection for his wife, and the pair quickly revealed themselves to be among the weakest of the season 13 bunch.
Despite Johnny's hesitancy to commit to his marriage with his new spouse, Bao was a determined wife throughout the couple's time on Married At First Sight. By Decision Day, however, Johnny was singing a new tune and shocked fans with his decision to stay married. Regrettably, Bao wasn't able to let go of Johnny's behavior during the season and opted for divorce. Since saying goodbye to Johnny on the dramatic Decision Day, Bao doesn't seem to have any regrets. On Instagram, Bao's demonstrated just how content she is without Johnny. In a recent post, Bao explained that she didn't get what she expected out of Married At First Sight, but she's found peace since exiting the series. Bao wrote that although her short-lived marriage was a harrowing venture, "I could not have persevered without the endless love and support of my family and friends."
Bao might not have ended up with the husband the Married At First Sight relationship experts paired her with, but once the star took matters into her own hands, Bao discovered another suitable partner from the season 13 crew. While the tragic events of Johnny and Bao's marriage were still unfolding on TV rumors emerged of Bao's blossoming relationship with fellow season 13 star, Zack. The pair was spotted out on the town and at art exhibits but asserted they were only friends. Fans theorized the couple couldn't admit they were together until the status of their marriages with their former partners Johnny and Michaela was confirmed on Decision Day. During the Married At First Sight: Where Are They Now?, Bao and Zack finally validated viewers' suspicions of their romance. In another Married At First Sight first, Bao's officially in a relationship with another wife's ex-husband, Zack.
Bao had a difficult time attempting to make her marriage work with Johnny in season 13, but since moving on from the experimental dating series, Bao's enjoyed a much less painful romantic journey. From making it out of a toxic relationship to dating a man better-suited for her, Bao isn't settling in the wake of her stressful run on reality TV. Hopefully, Bao and Zack's relationship will make their unsuccessful Married At First Sight experiences worthwhile.
