Married At First Sight fans have urged Stacey Hampton to hold her ‘husband’ Michael Goonan accountable, after he was caught cheating with co-star Hayley Vernon.
Select viewers said that it takes ‘two to tango’ in a number of tweets posted during Wednesday night’s dramatic episode.
The illicit hook-up took place during a drunken night out in Sydney, while Hayley’s husband David Cannon was alone in his hotel room and Stacey was in Adelaide visiting her children.
‘It takes two to tango!’ Married At First Sight fans urged Stacey Hampton (pictured), 25, to hold her ‘husband’ Michael Goonan accountable during Wednesday night’s episode, after she took HIS side in his cheating scandal with Hayley Vernon
‘It takes two to tango,’ one viewer wrote, along with another who said: ‘It’s an oldie but a goodie, it takes two to tango.’
‘The fact that Michael is getting off the hook when both parties are responsible genuinely blows my mind,’ one added, along with one who posted: ‘I did not see Michael getting away with this scot-free.’
However, it wasn’t all negative for Stacey, with select viewers commending her actions.

Confession: During Wednesday night’s episode, Hayley (pictured), 32, told Stacey point blank: ‘I hooked up with Michael. I kissed him’
‘We were having a couple of drinks, one thing led to another. Michael was quite flirtatious. And yeah, that’s just it. We kissed.’
She added: ‘It’s a pretty terrible thing to happen, for you. I don’t wanna say that we were drunk and it just got out of control and we just hooked up… [but] that’s what happened and it just sounds so pathetic.’
Things got worse from there, with Hayley implying that Michael, 28, may have suggested that they sleep together.

Coming clean: However before the dinner party, a remorseful Hayley paid Stacey a visit to come clean and clear the air
‘He actually said to me at one stage that if David’s not giving me what I need, that he can give me what I need,’ Hayley admitted.
‘I feel sick, it’s f**ked,’ a flabbergasted Stacey responded.
When Hayley left the room, Stacey unloaded on her to producers.

What went down: ‘[Michael] actually said to me at one stage that if David’s not giving me what I need, that he can give me what I need,’ Hayley revealed
‘I don’t trust Hayley at all,’ she sniped. ‘What the hell did I do to deserve you doing that to me?’
She continued: ‘She has lied from day one. Her whole reputation is riding on me forgiving her. Having me on her side as the victim of the cheating is going to let her look better to the group and to Australia.
‘She is an absolute scumbag. She does not know what’s coming for her. I am about to turn a f**king steam train onto her at this dinner party.’

Stacey made good on her promise at the dinner party, but not before Michael had a chance to address the cheating scandal to the table.
The millionaire playboy told everybody that he got drunk with one of the other couples and then ‘danced on Hayley’ and acted immaturely, but he stopped short of admitting that they’d actually hooked up.
‘I do apologise to you Stacey for the way I behaved. I made a foolish mistake and I regret that and I’m gonna end up regretting that for the rest of my life,’ he said.

As he launched into an apology to David, Hayley interjected: ‘Are you saying that we did kiss?’
‘I’m apologising for the flirtatious behaviour and for dancing on Hayley,’ he said. ‘But during that night, I did not kiss Hayley.’
Michael then went further, saying that he had ‘no recollection’ of the incident because he’d been partying too much.

Tension: ‘I’m apologising for the flirtatious behaviour and for dancing on Hayley,’ he said. ‘But during that night, I did not kiss Hayley’
‘We did kiss and we did hook up,’ Hayley snapped back.
‘I would not come out and say something for no particular reason,’ she continued.
‘What have I got to gain by saying that I kissed Michael? A lot of enemies?’
She then lost her cool at Michael, demanding that he ‘man up’ and admit that they hooked up.

David then jumped in, saying that he believed that the pair made out, but that he ‘commended’ Michael for exposing Hayley’s true colours to the group.
In a surprising twist, Stacey blatantly sided with Michael and launched into a scathing attack on Hayley.
‘Nobody here is ever going to trust their husband around you now,’ Stacey snapped.

Hayley shot back: ‘Why should anyone trust their misses around Michael? He’s no better than I am!’
‘You betrayed me, you have no respect for me!’ Stacey screamed back.
‘You betrayed every woman in this room because you made a pact at the hens’ night. How dare you think you can get me on your side – I let you use my kitchen to bake banana bread!’
She continued: ‘I was your friend, not Michael. Why were you even out with my husband alone? You’ve just ruined a relationship!

Dramatic: ‘You betrayed me, you have no respect for me!’ Stacey screamed at Hayley. ‘Why were you even out with my husband alone? You’ve just ruined a relationship!’
‘Yes he’s a d**khead and he parties, but you’ve taken advantage of that. You were encouraging vulnerable Michael.’
Hayley was stunned by the accusation, as were many others at the table, who generally agreed that it takes two to tango in a situation like this.
Stacey went on to say that she didn’t know if Michael had kissed Hayley or not, as there was no concrete evidence.
‘I don’t have proof Hayley, I’m a lawyer! Get me a video, I’m a lawyer, I need evidence,’ she said.
Married At First Sight continues Sunday at 7pm on Channel Nine
