Melissa Leong is a woman of words. The food writer is known for her eloquence and her deep passion for all things delicious, but the MasterChef judge, while appearing to live a perfect life, dealt with a personal battle in her marriage.
Divorce isn’t easy, and it can leave deep wounds for a long time. But thankfully, Melissa is now in a happy relationship with Rob Mason, the creator and CEO of an Australian-based men’s haircare brand.
Sharing photos alongside her new man on Instagram, Melissa said she’s the “luckiest girl in the world.” She first debuted her boyfriend on social media in September last year, along with a beautiful tribute.
“Gratuitous hot dad post, a day late,” Leong wrote for Father’s Day.
“Creator of world class cosmetics and the brains behind @morrismotley, brilliant father to a legendary babe squad and the best part of my day, nothing but love.”
Let’s Take a Look Back Into Melissa Leong’s Relationship History
In late December 2020, Melissa announced her separation from Joe Jones, her husband of almost four years. The shocking news was made on her Instagram page, with the TV personality telling her fans that “the time has come” for them to part ways.
“It has brought us such happiness to walk together, but the time has come for Joe and I to part ways and walk on, apart,” she wrote, alongside a wedding picture of the two of them.
“We ask for your kindness and consideration for our privacy, we will not be making any further comment as our private lives have, and will always remain exactly that. We wish you peace at the end of such a challenging year for all.”
In June 2020, Melissa had openly praised Jones to TV WEEK, revealing they were engaged after dating for just three months. The former couple married two months later.
“When you know you know,” she told the publication. “Everything’s so good as it is – I’m really happy.”
So Who Is Rob Mason?
Rob Mason has a great head of hair on him, and it’s for good reason. The father-of-three is the founder of Morris Motley, a brand that specialises in hair care and fragrance for men.
The two have been dating since last year and regularly share cute photos on their socials of each other.
While not much is known about him, we couldn’t be happier for Melissa.
