He’s one of the most controversial Married At First Sight grooms to ever enter Nine’s social experiment.
And Bryce Ruthven triggered yet another scandal this week, as co-star Rebecca Zemek has made the sensational claim he flirted with her during filming – and bragged about having a secret girlfriend ‘on the outside’.
Speaking to TV Week, the 27-year-old business manager said: ‘He was seeing a girl, and his mate asked him if he wanted to get her a gift. He told me this in the gym.’

She then claimed Bryce told her how he ‘placed her first’ on the hottest/nottest rating, and said it would be ‘easy enough’ to reach the end of the experiment with Melissa.
‘I’m telling you, he was flirting with me – and talking down about Melissa,’ she added.
Daily Mail Australia has contacted Bryce for further comment.
Rumours of Bryce’s ‘secret girlfriend’ on the outside world have been circulating for weeks.
The bombshell claims were recently made by Big Brother star and radio presenter Jason Roses, who was a guest at Bryce and Melissa’s TV wedding.

Speaking to the The Anj, Rob & Robbo Show in February, Jason said that he accidentally revealed Bryce’s secret to producers when he thought he wasn’t being filmed.
‘I was talking to someone off camera, so I thought the camera wasn’t recording me. And I might have said something that is going to cause big, big [drama],’ Jason confessed.
Jason claimed that as the season progresses, Bryce will be confronted with rumours that he was still in a relationship when he joined the experiment.

Bryce will apparently deny the rumours until the reunion episode, where producers will play back Jason’s statements.
‘What I said was now shown to the entire cast of Married At First Sight,’ Jason said.
‘It was at the reunion, and they’ve basically said, “Bryce, if you think you’re telling the truth, this is what your friend had to say in secret”.’
