EXCLUSIVE: Married At First Sight’s Bryce Ruthven and Melissa Rawson are ‘moving to the UK’ amid rumours couple are returning to TV


They welcomed their twin sons, Levi and Tate, in Melbourne last month.

But it appears Bryce Ruthven and his fiancée Melissa Rawson are considering relocating from Australia to the United Kingdom.

A source close to the couple told Daily Mail Australia that the pair have been getting inundated with offers of work after their season of the dating experiment aired in the UK.

‘I hear Bryce has been talking to casting producers and is waiting for the right career opportunity to move there. He is trying to keep his options open,’ claimed the friend.

Another telling sign is that Bryce recently renewed his passport.

When approached for comment by Daily Mail Australia, Bryce said his primary focus at the moment is solely on the twins and getting them home healthy.

‘Melissa and I would love to take Levi and Tate to the UK after April 18 to introduce the twins to family and friends that live over there,’ he said.

‘Who knows how long the visit to the UK could end up, might spend a bit more time over there than your usual Contiki tour.’

It comes just days after Bryce thanked their British fans for the love and support, which he noted was the ‘complete opposite’ reaction to Australian viewers.

He also cautioned fans to, ‘remember you’re speaking to real people just like yourself and how it could affect people’s mental health.’

‘We’re certainly not condoning the behaviour of some people on the show. Just reminding you that everyone on the show are human too,’ the reality TV star added.

The couple copped plenty of backlash from the Australian public after viewers complained to the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA).

Some viewers said Bryce and Melissa’s relationship was ‘toxic’, that Melissa was ‘subject to gaslighting’ and accused Channel Nine of ‘failure of duty of care’ towards her. 

But last month, an investigation found that the network did not breach the Commercial Television Code of Practice.

Despite the backlash, Rawson and Ruthven have remained together since the series went off air. 

They welcomed twins Levi and Tate, who are currently in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), after they were born 10 weeks premature on October 16.

The couple announced their baby news back in July, and also revealed they are engaged to be married.
