It's the second season of 'Unpolished' that is currently on air and just like the series' previous outing, Bria Martone continues to defend her relationship with Matt Mancuso with every ounce of her being. Big sister Lexi was completely against Mancuso but Bria didn't give up. Eventually, the season premiere episode last week saw Lexi having a one-on-one conversation with her sister's fiancé where she told him that she's alright with their wedding but that she'd be watching him closely. Bria and Mancuso have been together since the time when she was just 14 and he was a 19-year-old man. She is believed to have always been attracted to slightly older men from a young age according to a Soap Dirt report.

Bria was cheated on constantly by Mancuso for the majority of their time together. Lexi was also heard accusing him of using Bria's credit card to take other girls to hotel rooms on camera. The relationship saw a lot of ups and downs. Mancuso is also said to have had trouble managing his anger, this was one of the many reasons that the Martone family never really approved of their relationship. The two were on a break once that extended to two years and within that period not only did Mancuso get into a relationship with Jade Falzon but also got her pregnant and she gave birth to their twin sons whose custody was awarded to him. Despite that Bria and Mancuso found their way back to each other and he proposed to her in 2018. 



 

The opposition from the Martone family didn't stop after the engagement too and he said he would not like them to attend their future wedding and Bria completely respected his decision. The two even eloped to Las Vegas to get married but before doing so she called her mom Jennifer who was not super thrilled to hear about it but Bria was ready to overlook whatever her mom had to say. Had it not been for a call from her father, the late Big Mike who said he would personally want to walk her down the aisle, Bria would have gone through the wedding and would have come back as Mrs Mancuso. 

Where are Matt Mancuso and Bria Martone today? Are they still together?



 

Big Mike passed away in May 2020. In the aftermath of his passing due to cancer, Jennifer was left with a lot of bills that were constantly piling and a number of other financial issues that she couldn't seem to find the solution for. Big Mike had promised Bria a lavish wedding and Jennifer found herself in a soup wondering how she'd pay for everything her daughter was expecting at her wedding. Despite all the issues, Bria and Matt got married in September 2020 and the photos from that day are all over her Instagram feed and their wedding is a part of the recent episode of 'Unpolished'. She has also embraced Mancuso's twin sons as her own and is also looking forward to having babies of her own with him. 



 

'Unpolished' airs on Tuesdays at 10 pm on TLC.
