Who is Christopher Briney’s long-term girlfriend, Isabel Machado?
Machado, also an actor, was roommates with the TSITP star when they were at Pace University – but why the furore over the couple’s recent US Open fits?
Machado wore a low-cut denim Ralph Lauren maxi dress paired with brown sandals and a yellow purse, while Briney complemented her with white linen pants, a vest, blue tie and striped jacket.
Their outfits prompted mixed reactions online. Influencer and Make America Hot Again creator Raquel Debono called the yellow bag “ugly” and said the sandals were a “grandma shoe”, per Daily Mail. She also criticised Briney’s choice to carry a black “man purse”, saying “Conrad Fisher would never,” referring to Briney’s character on TSITP.
However, other fans praised the duo, hailing them as the “hottest couple” at the event and applauding their style and chemistry.
As her boyfriend’s No 1 supporter, Machado often accompanies Briney to glamorous premieres and fashion events. Here’s everything you need to know about her.
