Is everything okay? Married At First Sight star Michael Goonan freaks out fans as he posts bizarre videos to Instagram while in lockdown
Like the rest of the country, Married At First Sight’s Michael Goonan is trying various ways to keep occupied while in isolation.
And on Friday, the millionaire entrepreneur decided to film himself on Instagram Stories, using filters that made him either look like a young boy or an elderly man.
The eyebrow-raising footage saw the 29-year-old sipping on red wine from his own label, presumably at his Melbourne home, and sharing his ‘words of advice’ for fans.

In the first video, Michael used an Instagram filter to make him appear a young boy.
Speaking in a childlike voice and holding onto a glass of red wine, the reality star began with a made-up, ‘really funny story’.
‘Me and my best friend, his name’s Patrick. He steals my Lego and sometimes Patrick doesn’t give my Lego back to me,’ he said.
Tale to tell: While sipping red wine from his own label, the entrepreneur recalled a made-up story involving himself and a friend named Patrick
‘We both went to Dan Murphy’s (bottle shop) because Patrick, he’s got an older brother… he’s got a fake ID,’ Michael continued before sipping from his glass.
‘Anyway, Patrick and I went there and we’re like, “Hey, look, give us a bottle of the Ase”,’ he said, while pointing at the bottle’s label.
Daily Mail Australia is not in any way suggesting Michael is encouraging the drinking of alcohol by minors.

He began: ‘I need to give everyone some advice. Whatever you do, do not go to Dan Murphy’s like Patrick and I did and buy the Ase (wine).’
Michael then looked to have described his own Friday night as being a ‘long night’.
‘It is a longer night than you have ever anticipated,’ he said in the clip, while sipping more wine.

‘I haven’t left that night in 92 years. Just be careful, a word of advice. It’s like Jumanji, don’t play the game if you can’t f***ing keep up rollin’ the dice.’
As the battle to fight the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) continues, the government has advised Australians to only leave the house for essential reasons.
There are currently 6,560 confirmed cases of the virus in Australia, including 69 deaths, as of the evening of April 18.

Meanwhile, in addition to Michael’s family’s ice business, he also co-owns a wine label called Australian Sapphire Enterprises with his friend Calvin Daniels.
The pair launched the beverage business in May 2019, three months before Michael started filming Married At First Sight.
Michael embarked on a tumultuous relationship with ‘wife’ Stacey Hampton on the show, but is now dating his co-star KC Osborne.
