MasterChef Australia fan favorite Poh Ling Yeow has given fans a peek at their very private marriage.
Speaking to TV Week magazine on Monday, the 47-year-old woman praised her husband, aspiring actor Jono Bennett, 39, for keeping her punished in the midst of the whirlwind of fame.
“We just have a pretty low-key life with just the dogs and running the business,” said the chef.

Poh revealed that while filming MasterChef earlier this year, she chose to fly home to Adelaide every weekend so she could spend quality time with her husband.
When asked if the babies are on the cards, Poh simply replied, “No, not having children.”
Poh met Jono in 2009 on the set of the first season of MasterChef, where he worked as a show runner.

The couple started dating shortly after the show ended and they married five years later.
“Every time the show is presented, it’s essentially the anniversary of our reunion,” said Poh.
Poh has had a pretty complicated love life for the past two decades, involving two marriages and ‘a love triangle’ with her best friend.
That is different! Poh’s first husband Matt Phipps (left) married his best friend of 20 years, Sarah, Rich (right) after divorcing, but Poh is still on good terms with both of them.
The famous cook married her first husband, Matt Phipps, in 1990, when they both practiced Mormons.
But when they decided to divorce after nine years together, Matt married Sarah Rich, Poh’s best friend of 20 years.
Poh married Jono in 2014.

In an extraordinary twist, the two couples went into business together, uniting to open their own cafe in Adelaide called Jamface.
Poh has made no secret of the unusual arrangement in the past, but insists that he learned how to make it work like mature adults.
He is my ex-husband. She is my best friend. And when we finished, they got together and everything is elegant. It’s actually really good! she told Mamamia in 2017.

‘Everyone tries to complicate it. From the outside in, everyone is like a ‘love triangle’! And I say, ‘no!’ Now he’s like my brother and I think … people are never interested in the back story. They want everything to be sordid, ‘said Poh at the time.
She and Matt have remained ‘great companions’ since their divorce, something that used to make her new husband Jono feel ‘jealous’.
“It was something that we all essentially had to work on,” Jono told Women’s Day in 2017. “I know it is very human to be jealous, but you don’t do it right.”
‘There is a lot of history [between Poh and Matt]so it’s not something that can be removed. It is not something that should be.
“It was something we all had to work on”: Jono (pictured) previously spoke about the unusual arrangement, admitting that he used to feel “jealous” of Poh’s close relationship with her ex-husband.
