Pregnant Martha Kalifatidis makes a surprising confession about her sex life with Michael Brunelli

Martha Kalifatidis has revealed that she is not having sex during pregnancy.

The former Married At First Sight star was grilled about her bedroom antics with fiancé Michael Brunelli when she appeared on KIIS FM’s The Kyle and Jackie O Show on Monday.

Martha revealed she is currently living at her mum’s home in Melbourne after suffering from severe hyperemesis gravidarum – a condition that causes frequent and excessive vomiting during pregnancy.

‘So you and Michael are having sex in your mother’s bed?’ host Kyle Sandilands asked.

Martha tries to quickly shut down the line of questioning by asking Kyle how many times he had sex with his fiancée, Tegan Kynaston, while she was pregnant with their son, Otto. He admitted ‘once or twice’.

‘We ain’t got a time or two yet but who knows it’s [Michael’s] Birthday [soon],’ He added.

Elsewhere, Martha said she finally found some relief from her hyperemesis gravidarum, an extreme form of morning sickness she suffers from.

‘The nausea is relentless,’ she said. ‘There’s no food, no drink, you don’t want to put anything in your mouth.’

He explained that ‘hyperemesis babies’ are actually healthy because the baby ‘takes everything’ from the mother.

Meanwhile, Michael recently revealed how Martha’s morning sickness ‘almost destroyed the couple’.

In an article for Body & Soul, the 31-year-old personal trainer shared that caring for Martha caused him to give up healthy habits, lose muscle and gain weight.

‘Not to say that we haven’t always been grateful to be able to be pregnant,’ she wrote, before explaining the rapid decline in Martha’s health after becoming pregnant earlier this year, but this experience has made us Personally almost destroyed.’

Michael said that at first he thought his symptoms were normal, but as the weeks went by his discomfort became ‘extreme’.

‘She was vomiting, refusing to eat, unable to tolerate drinking water, nauseous 24 hours a day and unable to get out of bed,’

“By the ninth week of her pregnancy, Martha had lost 10 kilos, was taking multiple medications and required regular IV drips at the hospital to stay hydrated,” he wrote.

Michael stopped working as a personal trainer to care for his future wife – but also saw a decline in his mental and physical health.

‘I stopped exercising, I lost track of what I was eating, I was stuck in my own head and wasn’t present. I had zero motivation, zero willpower, zero self-care, and zero energy. I lost a lot of muscle, gained weight, slept poorly and my overall health declined.’

Fortunately, Martha’s illness subsided at 22 weeks, and she is now able to return to daily activities and Michael has returned to work.
