Married At First Sight groom Ryan Donnelly has scored his big acting break, with a small role in the new Nicole Kidman produced Binge TV series The Last Anniversary.

Eagle-eyed viewers have taken to social media to point out Ryan appeared as an extra in the first episode of the series, playing a police guard.

The former project manager is seen in the background of an office scene, with his character making his way through a workplace in a patterned dress shirt.

‘Must be a very small part or even a walk-on because he doesn’t feature in the cast list,’ another person quipped.

Ryan later confirmed it was indeed him in the series, which also stars Teresa Palmer and Miranda Richardson.

‘[I played a] simple police officer guarding the star patient in that episode. Always amazing fun on sets like those,’ he told Yahoo Lifestyle.

Ryan has worked as an actor for several years and previously had roles on Neighbours and NCIS: Sydney.

While many have been impressed by Ryan’s acting prowess, there is one person who hasn’t been.

Earlier this month, Ryan’s MAFS ex-wife Jacqui Burfoot took a brutal swipe at him.

Jacqui trashed his part-time acting career and claimed it was incompatible with her high standards.

The 29-year-old jewellery store owner didn’t hold back in a scathing social media post, revealing she had major concerns about Ryan’s ‘unstable’ job.

‘I was concerned about his acting career not being stable and predictable. It would force him to be a primary caregiver… he wouldn’t be happy with that,’ Jacqui began.

‘I want to be with a man who works hard/late, treats women very well and prides himself on a clean home. Ladies, never lower your standards. If you are insecure about finances then it is an insult to someone to have a concern over finances.

The series is executive produced by Nicole Kidman and stars Teresa Palmer and Miranda Richardson

It comes after Ryan’s MAFS ex-wife Jacqui Burfoot slammed his acting career as ‘unstable’

‘Who wouldn’t be concerned married to someone unemployed and a part-time actor? I was legit worried for him, so were the producers.’

Jacqui’s snide remarks came just hours after she also took aim at Ryan’s Sydney home, blasting his Campbelltown suburb as ‘boganic’.

Jacqui since has moved on and now lives with co-star Clint Rice in his sprawling Tasmanian mansion.

Ryan listed his profession as a ‘project manager’ on the show and his acting gigs appear to be a side hustle.

Daily Mail Australia previously revealed the Manly property Jacqui welcomed Ryan into was actually a rented Airbnb.

She returned to the Northern Beaches for the episode and was filmed rolling her suitcase through the front door of what was supposedly her home.

However, the property was in fact a $200-a-night Airbnb rental.

A voiceover described the residence as ‘Jacqui’s home’, but in reality it was a two-story rental arranged by producers.
