IF THERE was any doubt, there isn’t anymore.
Infamous party boy Corey Worthington has well and truly settled down after marrying partner Melissa at a special Bali wedding over the weekend.
The now 24-year-old, who Star News spoke to back in September this year, is still getting publicity from throwing the out-of-control party at his parents’ Narre Warren home in 2008, where more than 500 people turned up after the invitation went viral on Myspace.
“Any 16-year-old – I say it to anyone – if you’ve got cameras chucked in your face, people throwing money, getting to go overseas, getting to go around Australia, getting to meet famous people. Why not? Why wouldn’t you do it?” Corey told Star News.
“Getting to go on Big Brother, for throwing one simple party, it just went ‘boom’.
“I enjoyed it and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.”
And while Corey, who works full-time as a concreter and still lives locally, admitted he wished his parents hadn’t been dragged into the media spotlight along with him, it seems time really does heal all wounds.
“It took a little bit for them to get over what happened but they knew I was 16 and that I didn’t mean for it to get out of hand but they knew like … look what came out of it,” he said.
“They were sort of proud with how I handled a lot of situations as well.
“Because for a 16-year-old to take on all that, it was a lot at the time.”
