Married At First Sight’s Scott McCristal has delivered a blistering takedown of bride Gia Fleur’s shock new romance with Alan Wallace.<\/p>\n

The emotional groom didn’t hold back during Wednesday night’s episode of Stan<\/a>‘s MAFS: After the Dinner Party, accusing his TV wife of blindsiding him with what he sensationally labelled a ‘coordinated and set-up’ relationship.<\/p>\n

‘I was so invested in her, it was real, and I nurtured her, but I just copped so much sh*t,’ Scott said.<\/p>\n

The 33-year-old went on to address the bombshell photos of Gia with her new boyfriend, Love Triangle star Alan Wallace, which surfaced while their marriage is still playing out on screen.<\/p>\n

Clearly blindsided, Scott labelled the images ‘coordinated’ and ‘set-up’, admitting he felt deeply disappointed after committing months of his life to the experiment.<\/p>\n

‘We put our lives on hold for three months,’ he said, suggesting the situation had left him questioning everything.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The emotional groom didn’t hold back during Wednesday night’s episode of Stan’s MAFS: After the Dinner Party, accusing his TV wife of blindsiding him\u00a0<\/p>\n

But it was his claims about what allegedly went on behind the scenes that painted the most explosive picture.<\/p>\n

According to Scott, their relationship was ‘much worse’ off-camera, with the groom alleging Gia regularly threatened to walk away.<\/p>\n

‘I’ll be very honest and upfront now that I can speak \u2013 off camera, you can only imagine,’ he said.<\/p>\n

‘The ultimatums, constantly threatening to leave, and demanding that I say I love her.’<\/p>\n

He further claimed Gia would ‘go off for nothing’ and accused her of focusing on everything but their relationship, even suggesting she sabotaged their bond.<\/p>\n

‘She would threaten to leave once a week,’ he added.<\/p>\n

Scott’s emotional confession marks a stark contrast to what viewers have seen unfold on Married At First Sight, where Gia has been portrayed as trying to salvage the relationship.<\/p>\n

For weeks, audiences have watched the bride, 36, attempt to keep her marriage alive despite ongoing tension and explosive arguments.<\/p>\n

\"'I <\/p>\n

‘I was so invested in her, it was real, and I nurtured her, but I just copped so much shit,’ Scott said<\/p>\n

However, away from the cameras, a very different story has emerged.<\/p>\n

Gia confirmed she has already moved on from the experiment \u2013 and is now in a serious relationship with Alan Wallace.<\/p>\n

What began as a quiet connection has quickly escalated, with the pair now officially together and even discussing a future.<\/p>\n

‘The relationship began officially around New Year’s Eve, but we were talking for a couple months off and on before then,’ Gia explained.<\/p>\n

Their first interaction actually took place toward the end of filming, when they crossed paths at a Sydney party after being introduced by Daily Mail Australia.<\/p>\n

Despite only just meeting, Gia admitted she was instantly drawn to him.<\/p>\n

‘When I saw Alan for the first time I knew I liked him because I was getting super jealous of him speaking to another girl,’ she confessed.<\/p>\n

‘I was instantly like that’s my man \u2013 he just doesn’t know it yet.’<\/p>\n

\"Gia <\/p>\n

Gia is now in a serious relationship with Alan Wallace<\/p>\n

Since then, the relationship has intensified rapidly, with Alan confirming the pair are now exclusive.<\/p>\n

‘It’s very serious now,’ he said.<\/p>\n

‘I’ve asked her to be my girlfriend and we’re officially together.’<\/p>\n

He added that the couple are already building a future together, revealing Gia is planning to move in.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Gia has also taken aim at Scott, offering her own version of events surrounding their split.<\/p>\n

‘I knew my feelings for Scott were gone after the final dinner party when he treated me like a piece of shit,’ she said.<\/p>\n

She claimed their relationship deteriorated even further during the reunion and press commitments, alleging she felt disrespected and emotionally unsupported.<\/p>\n

‘I rarely felt complimented or reassured and I never really felt secure,’ she said.<\/p>\n

‘I felt used.’<\/p>\n

Gia also pointed to fundamental differences in their long-term goals, including conflicting views on having children.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Married At First Sight’s Scott McCristal has delivered a blistering takedown of bride Gia Fleur’s shock new romance…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":337597,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[557,156,28704,111,139,69,1093,89894,1766],"class_list":["post-337596","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-dailymail","tag-entertainment","tag-married-at-first-sight-australia","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-reality-tv","tag-stan","tag-tvshowbiz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/337596","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=337596"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/337596\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/337597"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=337596"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=337596"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=337596"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
