The final Married At First Sight dinner party is always guaranteed to stir up some juicy drama, but it turns out there was plenty more going on behind the scenes too this season.
Tuesday night’s episode is set to reveal Stacey and Mikey’s alleged affair, but Mikey’s former on-screen wife Natasha has exposed him, by sharing a text conversation that took place days before the reunion was filmed.
The reunion was filmed back in January, but in texts shared on Natasha’s Instagram stories, Mikey reached out to his ex ahead of filming.
“Hey Natasha are you free Monday for a catch up? Absolutely fine if you don’t want to see me,” he asked, before adding, “Or even over the weekend.”
Though she thanked Mikey for “reaching out”, Natasha’s reply was a not-so-subtle swipe at him.
“I’m inclined to recall what you told me when I asked to speak to you before the second last commitment ceremony – ‘save it for the cameras’.”
Natasha signed off saying “hope you all enjoyed Italy,” where Mikey with his family and new girlfriend went on holiday at the end of last year.
Now To Love has reached out to Mikey for comment.
According to a report by Woman’s Day, Natasha and Mikey’s relationship was so volatile that they were forced to sleep in separate apartments.
“Natasha slowly grew tired of his fakeness – he would ignore her texts, stand her up on dates and then come into commitment ceremonies acting all loved up for the cameras,” a source told the publication.
The source added that producers told Mikey that he and Natasha “had a boring dynamic.”
“He became too caught up in trying to get air time that he forgot about fostering a relationship with her.”

Since filming wrapped, Mikey has found love with girlfriend, Kelly Burke, with the pair recently making their relationship Instagram official.
Kelly and Mikey rang in the New Year together on a snowy Italian holiday, and according to Mikey’s brother Tom, they are a great match for each other.
Tom says they’re both very impulsive, adventurous and spontaneous, and that they have “a lot of respect for each other.”
“I think Kelly is a much better match for Mikey than Natasha,” he told the Daily Mail.
“She’s very different to Natasha. I think she’s a lot more settled in herself. She is quite honest about herself and she’s definitely more suited to what Mikey is about.”
