Davina Rankin’s dad looks strained as she remains hiding

She’s the Married At First Sight ‘villain’ who’s gone into hiding after her on-screen cheating scandal caused huge viewer backlash.

And with the whereabouts of Davina Rankin still unknown, her father Bob was seen looking strained as he stocked up on supplies at a Brisbane supermarket on Monday.

His outing comes less than 24 hours after his daughter’s final appearance on the top-rating Channel Nine program, with Davina choosing to ‘leave’ her troubled marriage on Sunday night’s episode of the show. 

Is everything okay? Davina Rankin’s father Bob appeared strained as he stepped out in Brisbane on Monday, with his Married At First Sight star daughter yet to resurface following her controversial appearance on the show 

Known to be close with his TV star daughter, Bob was seen enjoying lunch with Davina during one of her last public outings nearly three weeks ago. 

On Monday, however, he appeared much more uneasy as he wheeled a shopping trolley full of groceries through the supermarket car park. 

Staples such a bread and milk were seen in Bob’s shopping bags – possible supplies for Davina who may be holed up in the family home.

Fears for the star have been growing following her disappearance from public life after she attracted significant scorn for her affair with Married At First Sight  co-star Dean Wells.

Davina has been conspicuously absent as her other co-stars do a plethora of TV interviews for the show, and she hasn’t posted any new updates to her Instagram profile since January 29.

Additionally, the brunette’s white Mazda sat unmoved out the front of her parent’s house for ten consecutive days.

However, it appeared Bob took the vehicle for a spin on Monday, seen loading his groceries into a car that appeared to be the exact same make and model as the one owned by Davina.  

At the same time as the patriarch stepped out on the grocery run, Davina’s mother Barb blasted the way her daughter had been portrayed on Married At First Sight. 

‘It’s absolute trash and it makes us all angry to see how it’s all been played out,’ she reportedly told New Idea on Monday.

Barb was quick to point out the 26-year-old didn’t even apply to the dating series and now that she’d fielded significant backlash the producers had offered to send Davina on a free holiday.

Not one to shy away from the truth, Davina’s mother admitted her daughter could be outspoken at times but is ‘by no means manipulative and spiteful.’ 

‘She built a career on empowering women and I’m disgusted with the way she has been portrayed,’ Barb is alleged to have said.

Meanwhile, on Sunday night’s episode of the show, Davina opted to ‘leave’ her troubled marriage to ‘husband’ Ryan Gallagher.

Their relationship had been marred by Davina’s cheating scandal with another co-star, Dean Wells. 

The incident saw the brunette become one of the most controversial cast mate’s in the show’s history.
