MAFS’ Melissa Rawson takes aim at Samantha Harvey after bombshell claim

Melissa Rawson has taken aim at Samantha Harvey for claiming on Wednesday night that her husband Bryce Ruthven has a ‘secret girlfriend’ waiting on the outside. 

In an Instagram post after the explosive scenes aired, Melissa, 31, said it wasn’t right for Samantha, 31, to ‘hold onto information’ for weeks only to address it publicly.

The response did not go unnoticed by Samantha who reposted Melissa’s Instagram post on her Instagram Stories, and captioned it with numerous face palm emojis.

Alongside a smiling photo of herself taken during Wednesday night’s episode, Melissa wrote online: ‘I’m a good person. I don’t make assumptions. I don’t need to yell to get my point across.’

Hinting there’s now a rift between herself and Samantha, she continued: ‘I don’t hold onto information about my friend for weeks and think that telling them at a girls’ night (in front of everyone!) is the right thing to do.’ 

Also addressing the public’s opinions, Melissa said she is the one to call the shots.

‘You can be the jury, but I am the judge. I’ll see fit to do what I want and your opinion is just that… an opinion.’   

An hour later, Samantha reposted Melissa’s words on her Instagram Stories, simply captioning it with several face palm emojis. 

During Wednesday’s episode, Samantha sensationally claimed that Bryce, 31, does have a secret girlfriend waiting for him on the outside following weeks of rumours – leading Melissa to burst into tears and exclaim: ‘I am the biggest fool’.

Bryce had emphatically denied the accusations for weeks – but Samantha said she heard from his close friend that the claims were true, just shy of a fortnight earlier.

‘I don’t know if you know about a girl back in Canberra that he’s been talking to and messaging,’ Samantha announced to Melissa. ‘He has been messaging her quite frequently, and trying to get time off to go to the rugby with her.

‘He said that he has to do this show for his exposure for his career in radio.

‘Basically, she’s waiting for him to come off the show. This was a week and a half ago. I heard it from one of Bryce’s very good mates, Jason.’

Melissa was clearly distraught by the news, seeing as she only recently caught up with former Big Brother star Jason Roses in Canberra – who had completely denied the claims to her.

‘I even know the girl’s name,’ Samantha continued – with the big reveal leaving Melissa to break down in tears.

Samantha later explained to Melissa that the mystery woman in question was still waiting for Bryce on the outside, leaving his bride utterly lost for words.

‘I am the biggest fool,’ Melissa said to the camera. ‘I’m very upset that it’s come to this, because I’ve…’

She then breathed heavily as she tried to battle her tears, saying: ‘I won’t do it anymore.’
