“Their night out ended up back at a hotel, and Stacey found out after it ended up on social media,” the insider explains. “She was missing her kids and family and he was out getting drunk with another woman. It was an absolute slap in the face!”

“His face just turned red, he was paralysed… he didn’t know where to look!” says the source. “He came back drunk from the casino and grabbed a handful of poker chips out of his pocket when the bag just came flying out – it was all very unfortunate,” quips the on-set spy.
What’s more, the offending groom was beside himself when he realised the ordeal had been seen by a member of the production team.

“One of the producers witnessed the whole thing and she just lost it at him,” says the insider.
“It was really heated – everyone was ordered back to their rooms and told to stay there. The production team tried to calm [Michael] down by assuring him that there were no cameras, but he was just so agitated by the entire situation.”
Michael is known to enjoy wild nights.

“Production weren’t having a bar of it,” says the spy. “They told him in no uncertain terms they would remove him from the show if he didn’t agree to undergo the sessions.”
