Married At First Sight‘s Bryce Ruthven has revealed an unfiltered look inside the reality of raising babies.
The former reality TV star who is a proud dad to twins Tate and Levi shared a video of one of his sons crying while lying on his lap on his Instagram story.
He then decided to get honest about the not-so-cute side to rebel against influencers who only show the highlights reel.
“I could have posted a happy baby to show them being little angels like they usually are but instead, I am showing the reality of having sick babies.”

“Here’s the reality… This is Levi after the twins visited the doctor this morning. Both are sick. Both are teething, and both are a little grumpy.
“As a result. I could have posted a happy baby to show them being little angels like they usually are but instead, I am showing the reality of having sick babies,” he wrote.
Mum Melissa shared their scary story at the doctors.

“Would never know these two are sick,” he wrote alongside the footage.
Lis shared more details about what her “little bubbas” are going through.
She posted a picture of one of the twins rugged up on their way to the doctors, which they originally visited “to get their immunisations.”
Bryce and Melissa met whilst filming season eight of Married At First Sight.

“We have a follow up appointment tomorrow and now awaiting the results.
“We were advised it is likely RSV [respiratory syncytial virus) or Bronchiolitis. As they are prem bubs with respiratory challenges, we’re monitoring their breathing round the clock,” she explained.
Last year the couple welcomed their twins into the world ten weeks early, and they shared with New Idea all the details regarding their unexpected arrival.
“We had planned to spend the weekend building the nursery and setting things up for the twins, but that all changed early Saturday morning,” Bryce said at the time.
“Even though the boys have arrived early, they’re doing really well and are getting the best care possible.”
Since arriving home from the hospital, the boys have been going from strength to strength.
