Married At First Sight’s Bryce Ruthven storms out after Rebecca Zemek refuses to accept his apology

Rebecca Zemek refused to accept Bryce Ruthven’s apology, leading to yet another tense showdown on Wednesday’s episode of Married At First Sight.

After sitting down for dinner at one of the show’s famous dinner parties, Bryce, 31, attempted to apologise for previously planting an unwanted kiss on Beck’s cheek.  

‘I’m happy to apologise for what I did. It was inappropriate, and I’ve been a big advocate on the experiment for respect towards women, and I went against what I said,’ he told her.

He continued: ‘I apologise for what I did. It was inappropriate, and I’m sorry you felt uncomfortable, if you did feel that way.’ 

Bryce acknowledged that he’d ‘crossed a line’, and claimed he was ‘just being a smart a**e’ when he kissed her.  

But as the rest of the group praised Bryce’s apology, Beck, 27, refused to accept it and told him in no uncertain terms: ‘Absolutely not.’   

‘Trust me, I don’t want to speak to you, but I’m here to educate you… your actions are not okay. It’s not okay to invade anyone’s space. We gotta talk about it,’ Beck said.

A furious Bryce then stood up and stormed out, before angrily ordering the show’s producers to take his mic pack off him.

‘I’m over this s**t!’ he fumed. 

‘Regarding the apology to Rebecca, it actually was 100 per cent sincere and genuine. So, look, all I can do is give her the apology. She didn’t accept it. That’s fine. I didn’t expect her to accept it,’ he added.

On Tuesday’s episode, Beck was left in tears after Bryce planted an unwanted kiss on her cheek during another mock apology.

After sarcastically crowning Beck ‘the queen’ of this year’s season of MAFS, Bryce leant down and kissed her cheek as she screamed for him to get off her.
