MAFS drama erupts on live radio as Harrison says Bronte asked him to be in a ‘fake’ relationship on their honeymoon but he refused – as he accuses another groom of sliding into her DMs
Married At First Sight’s Harrison Boon has thrown his TV wife Bronte Schofield under the bus, following rumours the couple pretended to be in a relationship for airtime despite knowing their marriage was doomed.
Speaking to The Kyle and Jackie O Show on Tuesday, Harrison, 32, claimed Bronte, 28, asked him to be in a ‘fake’ relationship while on their honeymoon, but said he rejected her offer because he genuinely wanted to make things work.
‘She pulled me aside and said, “We could just get through this,” and I said, “Bronte, that’s not what I’m here for,”‘ he claimed.
Bronte apparently used Brent Vitiello and Tamara Djordjevic from last year’s season as an example, after they voted to stay at every commitment ceremony despite the obvious issues in their relationship and made it all the way to final vows.
‘I was like, “They hated each other… that was the fakest relationship ever,” and she goes, “Well, we could just do that,” and I’m like, “That’s not what I’m here for,”‘ Harrison said.

In a surprise twist, Harrison also accused Brent of romantically pursuing Bronte on social media.
‘I know Brent’s been in Bronte’s DMs, by the way… he’s cracking on to her,’ the part-time stripper said, adding: ‘That’s why he’s coming so hard for me in the media. It’s like, dude, stop trying to stay relevant.’
Brent later called into the radio station to confront Harrison on-air, but Harrison refused to let him join the conversation, saying: ‘He had his chance for the limelight, I’m not giving him mine.’

Brent has been a vocal critic of Harrison’s behaviour towards Bronte in recent weeks.
Last month he accused Harrison of ‘gaslighting Bronte worse than a BIC lighter’ after watching them argue on the show.
‘I can’t win with Harrison. Red flag barer at the red flag Olympics talking red flag s**t. It’s giving me heart burn’, the hospitality manager wrote on Instagram at the time.

It comes after Harrison and Bronte shocked viewers and their own co-stars by deciding to stay in the experiment during Sunday night’s commitment ceremony.
The decision came after a week of constant arguing between the couple which culminated in Harrison sensationally ‘dumping’ Bronte via a text message.
