Share:
Married at First Sight bride Melissa Rawson has revealed the major career change since relocating her young family to the Gold Coast. The 35-year-old is now working night shifts at The Star as a hostess in the 'high roller' areas of the casino. Unlike the majority of former MAFS participants, the mother-of-two has chosen a blue collar hospitality job instead of attempting to live off her 15 minutes of fame with a podcast, memoir, and influencing career.

On Monday, Melissa explained the details of her new role on her personal blog, Her Second Shift. 'Last month, while scrolling through LinkedIn, I came across an intriguing ad for a Host. The industry and nature of the job piqued my interest,' she wrote.

'After a single interview, I had the job within a week, and then earlier this month, I officially started my new role as a Premium Service Host. MAFS bride Melissa Rawson is now a Premium Hostess at The Star casino on the Gold Coast. 'More casually, I work in the high-roller areas.'.
Melissa added: 'Although confidentiality agreements and filming bans prevent me from sharing too much, I can tell you this: working in the high-roller sections of a casino is an extraordinary experience. 'In such a vibrant environment, there’s always something unexpected that makes me go, "Wow" every day.'.
The self-described mummy blogger has maintained a strong following years after her appearance on MAFS due to her candid revelations about parenting and unfiltered confessionals. In her lengthy blog entry, Melissa detailed the difficulty to find work after appearing in the 'controversial' TV series in 2020.
