Married At First Sight<\/a> bride Brook Crompton<\/a> has shared why she won’t be attending the TV show’s reunion.<\/p>\n

The special edition episode will air this Sunday night, and will feature several 2026 cast members to talk about the season.<\/p>\n

The 27-year-old Queenslander abruptly left the experiment following a dramatic dinner party<\/a> where she ripped into multiple people and her behaviour was labelled “disgusting”<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A poll of nearly 2,800 Yahoo Lifestyle viewers found an overwhelming 97 per cent thought she went “too far” that night.<\/p>\n

Many have been wondering whether she would come back and face the music and now she’s spoken out.<\/p>\n

“In the lead-up [to the reunion], I was contacted multiple times by producers via email and phone, encouraging me to attend,” she said on Instagram.<\/p>\n

“I was also advised that my onscreen husband would not be present.<\/p>\n

“However, at that point in my life, I had just found out that Harry and I were expecting our first child.”<\/p>\n

Brook explained that returning to that environment “was not in my best interest”, so she turned down the offer.<\/p>\n

“It had previously brought out a side of me I wasn’t proud of, and I knew I needed to prioritise my wellbeing,” she added.<\/p>\n

“My focus was, and always will be, protecting myself, my partner, and our baby. For that reason, I chose not to attend.<\/p>\n

“The information I was given only reinforced for me that stepping away from the experiment was the right decision. I stand by my choice and hope that provides some clarity.”<\/p>\n

Shortly after Brook’s departure from the Channel 9 show, it was revealed that she was pregnant after getting back together with her ex-partner.<\/p>\n

They’re expecting their baby later this year and are now also engaged.<\/p>\n

What did Brook do on MAFS that was so controversial?<\/p>\n

During that fiery dinner party episode, Brook yelled at Alissa and asked whether the nurse’s parents would be proud of her for how she acted on the show.<\/p>\n

She also called Alissa a “ratchet b***h”, and in unseen footage aired on Stan’s After The Dinner Party<\/a>, Brook went even harder on the bride.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know for a fact everyone will watch this show and see that Alissa is a fake f***ing bitch with those rat-s**t hair extensions,” she said.<\/p>\n

Brook then turned her sights to fellow bride Stella for complaining at the commitment ceremony that not everyone was happy for her and Filip’s strong bond.<\/p>\n

The model then targeted groom Danny, and said she could drop a bombshell that would ruin his marriage.<\/p>\n

Brook released an apology after the episode had aired and said her behaviour wasn’t acceptable.<\/p>\n

“The past few episodes of Married At First Sight was an extremely difficult watch,” she said.<\/p>\n

“What you saw last night was the worst version of myself, and unfortunately Alissa and Stella were on the receiving end of that.<\/p>\n

“I want to firstly, sincerely apologise to Alissa and Stella for my words and the hurt that I have caused.<\/p>\n

“My actions were appalling and not at all a reflection of the kindness and respect that you both deserve and I hope in time you can forgive me. I am truly sorry.”<\/p>\n
