Married At First Sight’s Jacqui Burfoot has finally responded to her ex-husband Ryan Donnelly’s claims she started her relationship with Clint Rice while they were still together.

During Monday night’s bombshell final episode, the controversial bride, 29, took to the couch with Ryan, 36, to discuss their three-month marriage and watch it play out on the screen.

However, despite rumours she and fellow participant Clint, 43, struck up a romance during filming, she has stayed firm on the fact that they only connected after the experiment.

‘After Final Vows things ended pretty badly and I was pretty sad for about two weeks and crying,’ Jacqui told the experts.

‘Clint and I had started talking and we developed a friendship.

‘We started bonding over our shared experience in the experiment and how disappointed we essentially were and then Clint invited me down to Tasmania.’

‘So, I just took the leap, flew down with a one way ticket there and we just hit it off,’ she said, adding that they have a lot in common and hate being away from each other.

Jacqui then dropped another bombshell about her exciting future with the pro-golfer.

‘Now I’m moving in with Clint,’ she shared.

However, the group’s reaction to the news set the bride off.

Her fellow MAFS participants burst out laughing while expressing their shock at the quick pace of Jacqui’s relationship.

‘Why is that funny?’ she questioned the group, wearing a serious face.

‘Everyone in this room signed up for an experiment where you were gonna marry a stranger, you were gonna spend three months of your lives [together].’

‘It’s not a big deal. You all did the same thing,’ she said.

Jacqui continuously looked over to new love Clint during the segment, smiling

However, Jacqui’s former husband Ryan refused to believe she was loyal to him in the relationship, particularly due to the fast progression of her and Clint’s relationship.

‘I was living with her when you were talking to her mate,’ Ryan sensationally accused Clint.

‘I was there when we all exchanged numbers the first week that Clint came into the experiment,’ Ryan added.

He went on to say he didn’t mind the pair chatting as friends, however he did not realise the depth of their texts.

‘Jacqui told me and, actually, Clint confirmed it that after one of the commitment ceremonies, Jacqui called Clint at 3am,’ he said.

What’s more, Ryan claimed that after rumours swirled about the pair, he called Jacqui asking if she was seeing Clint, which she denied to Ryan, saying she really ‘loves’ him and wouldn’t ‘disrespect’ him in that way.

However, Jacqui was having none of it and shut down Ryan’s accusations.

‘That’s not what happened,’ she said.

‘I’m so sick of it Ryan,’ she responded to Ryan’s accusations

‘I’m so sick of it Ryan,’ she responded, before he sensationally replied: ‘Sick of what? Being held accountable for your actions?’

Still, the crowd was erupting with giggles over the former couple’s qualms and proceeded to laugh throughout their marriage journey video, which showed an array of bizarre moments between them.

Tony Mojanovski lost his cool and bent over in laughing during the reading of Jacqui’s list about Ryan’s faults, Dave Hand burst out in hysterics when Jacqui said no one met her ‘standards’ and Jamie Marinos shared hilarious ad libs throughout about the wild ride that was their relationship.

However, it was the moment that Jacqui asked for her backup groom’s number during the final challenge and told him she’d be out of the experiment in ‘ten days’ that saw the group explode.

‘What the f***?’ Beth Kelly exclaimed, as the rest of the participants gasped and laughed at the scene.

By the end of the clip, Jacqui made a sensational claim about her dysfunctional relationship with Ryan.

‘I feel like, actually, it wasn’t ever me,’ Jacqui said.

‘It’s something with Ryan. He just blanks. He deflects.’

The judges then turned the line of questioning to Jacqui’s new beau Clint, asking what his take was on the video and her and Ryan’s relationship.

‘Watching the video, it was exactly what Jacqui described went on and I just cannot believes some of the behaviour he has demonstrated to a female,’ he said.

‘It’s actually disgraceful.’

But Billy Belcher, who was in disbelief at the reality star’s response, posed his own question to Clint.

‘And even from seeing Jacqui on there… Is there any alarms that you’ve seen watching Jacqui? Billy asked.

‘Not at all,’ replied Clint.

‘I’ve actually fallen more for her since I’ve just watched that.’

The response prompted multiple participants to look around in confusion, with a few further giggles from Jamie.

By the end of the couch session, both Ryan and Jacqui agreed that they had learnt a lot form the experiment.

Jacqui went on to say she was excited to use her learnings in her new relationship with Clint, who proposed to her on Sunday at a reunion party in Sydney.
