Bachelor in Paradise star Ciarran Stott only debuted his relationship with glamorous model Ruby Burciaga last week.
But the couple have already found themselves at the centre of controversy.
Ciarran, 27, was criticised by his Instagram followers on Monday for sharing a half-naked photo of Ruby, which fans labelled 'tacky' and 'disrespectful'.

The photo showed Ruby topless in a pair of lacy knickers as a shirtless Ciarran covered her bare breasts with one hand and snapped a mirror selfie with the other.
'Few days late but happy new year y’all,' the English fitness trainer captioned it.
But some fans weren't impressed by the photo, with one commenting: '2022's tackiest post so far right here.'
'Clearly he's trying to overcompensate for something,' another added.
Some critics called him 'so disrespectful' for parading his new girlfriend around in such a brazen manner.
Others said they were being deliberately provocative and trying to imitate Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox, another celebrity couple known for their racy displays.

Ruby made her first appearance on Ciarran's Instagram profile last week.
At the time, the reality star uploaded a photo of himself with the stunning Melbourne native, and confirmed their relationship status in the caption.
'Life with you is pretty damn good,' he wrote, adding a black love-heart emoji.
