David Cannon shared a number of Instagram videos on Saturday, expressing his fury at trolls who send him abusive messages.
The Married At First Sight star said he’d finally had enough, rambling at length: ‘I didn’t go on this show to be Instagram famous, I went on the show to find a partner.
‘I am sitting her minding my own business and I got another abusive message. It wasn’t the worst message I have gotten but it was the straw that broke the camel’s back. I’ve had a bloody enough.

‘Other cast members are getting worse messages than I am getting. That blows my mind because I know them personally and they are absolute gentlemen, absolute superstars.

David also wrote in a caption: ‘We are real people just like you! Sick of the abuse, smarten up because none of you.. sending me abuse would say it to my face!’
