Married At First Sight contestant Sam Ball has slammed his “bride” Elizabeth Sobinoff in a fiery Instagram post.
Sam faced a viewer backlash after “cheating” on Elizabeth with this year’s villain, Ines Basic, on the Channel 9 show.
In a since deleted post on his Instagram story, Sam accused Elizabeth of trying to extend her 15 minutes of fame by trashing him in several interviews.
“I thought I signed up to meet the woman of my dreams … oh how mistaken I was,” Sam wrote.
“You wasted the best three weeks of my life that I will never get back. You sucked the life out of me like a sponge.
“I think I’ve done about 5 interviews in comparison to her 50 due to the simple fact that I have a life to live and don’t see the point of running someone down because obviously she wants exposure.
“I didn’t think she would just keep going even now.”
Sam, who is now in a new relationship, said going on the show was a “mistake” and accused producers of making him look bad.
“Nobody understands that I was forced to be late to dinner parties, the separate hotel I had to stay in so I didn’t run into other contestants, who I am as a person on and off the show etc,” he wrote.
This isn’t the first time Sam has claimed he was manipulated by Married At First Sight producers.
Speaking to Nova’s Fitzy and Wippa, he said his “affair” with Ines was staged.
“It was definitely pushed and manipulated … like the whole show, we all know it’s not completely real,” he told the radio duo.
He claimed producers would feed him lines to say on camera, and he went along with it because he was in too deep.
“You can’t pull out of it,” he said.
It appeared on Married At First Sight that Sam and Ines had a night of passion, but he told the Nova hosts that he never slept with her.
“No, I didn’t (have sex with Ines), no we never slept together — you obviously saw me throwing her on the bed and all that stuff … I had to look like I was going for it,” he said.
Ines hit back at Sam in an X-rated post on Instagram, describing in graphic detail exactly what “went down” between the pair.
“Yeah. The producers made you … for four hours hun. Yeh OK,” Ines wrote on her Instagram story.
This season’s other villain, Jessika Power, backed up Ines’ side of the story in a radio interview earlier this week.
“Everything she is saying is the absolute truth,” Jessika told Hit105 Breakfast with Stav, Abby & Matt.
“Sam is just doing the dirty, I don’t know why. Maybe he’s embarrassed, maybe he’s not coping with the hate too much, but own your mistakes,” she said.
