Viewers of Married At First Sight were left gobsmacked when sweet and bubbly Olivia showed another side of herself on Sunday night’s show.

As fellow wife Holly opened up about the struggles in her relationship with Andrew and how she felt unsupported and unbelieved by her peers about her husband’s behaviour behind closed doors, Olivia shockingly turned on her.

“I’ll just be honest with you, babe,” Olivia began.

“So, like, it’s not anything that Andrew’s said about you that’s changed my perception of you, it’s my own two eyes of what you do.

“The eye rolling and the faces while he was speaking, it just spoke so much disrespect.”

Holly stood firm: “But, Liv, if I may, I am eloquent, and I have a strong voice. And all I had was those eye rolls, and I know it doesn’t make sense to you.”

Olivia retorted: “That’s what I’m saying, behind closed doors, your version, his version.

“Somewhere in the middle’s probably the truth.”

And she continued to dig the boot in further. Later in the show when the group gathered to vote to stay or leave their relationships, and Andrew was noticeably absent, an emotional Holly confided in the group: “I came into the room hoping for support I felt I earned, and I walked in the villain.

“I felt alone in the room. I got attacked and you couldn’t see it. Instead, you judged me.

“To make me look bad last night. You all felt assured that I didn’t try hard enough, and that he needed another chance.

“He had more chances from me than he had deserved. Andrew took my voice. And he silenced me. This is my voice, to speak for the people who, in a relationship, have been silenced, and who are not believed.”

Later on, with a look of mirth creeping across her face, Olivia was asked to please explain?

She proceeded to slam Holly for “pulling faces” as Andrew talked and not giving him a chance.

“I watched Holly ignore him then very dramatically move her seat so I don’t think Holly’s behaviour has been 100 per cent adult,” Olivia let rip.

Social media users cringed at Olivia’s harsh criticism, with Twitter user Aleisha labelling both Olivia and her husband Jackson as “fake” and “judgmental”.

And Lisa slammed Olivia for daring to shame another woman: “Olivia you’re just a pushover and so you’re uncomfortable when Holly can stand up for herself. How dare you shame your fellow women for standing up for themselves.”

Viewers also pointed out how Olivia criticised Holly’s facial expressions such as rolling her eyes, only to do the same thing later in the show. Perhaps even more dramatically, including blowing her cheeks up like a puffer fish, and dramatic sighs.

Meanwhile commenter Jen noticed: “You’re doing a LOT of eyerolling Olivia”. Melissa agreed, saying: “How is Olivia pulling faces while Holly is talking any different from Holly rolling her eyes at the Texan? Not very adult like of you Olivia.”

Twitter user Kris said: “Yeah nah Olivia and Jackson s--t me now. They’ve lost me.”

And AntheaGrace declared that Olivia is the new villain.

To her credit, Olivia did sneak in an apology to Holly just as the experts started to call her behaviour out.

Alessandra said: “I’m curious. Olivia, that was very different. You came in and you took the lead in confronting and asking questions and what not, you were very forceful.

“It was very intense.”

Olivia turned to Holly and said: “Holly I would like to apologise, when you walked in I didn’t use my words to the best I could have. I feel awful.

“I know it’s an issue I do have, but it doesn’t happen often to me.”

However for many viewers it was too little too late, with many declaring they would no longer tune in to the show and others asking to be notified once the couple left so they could resume watching.

Twitter user John wrote: “Can we please get rid of Olivia and her hubby? Read Twitter. No one wants to watch them.

“If you can’t, tell us when their segments are over so we remember to change the channel back.”

Later on in the show, there was also an awkward conversation about a box of sex toys the couple were given, with Jackson saying Olivia was teaching him.

Then, moments later when expressing her love for Jackson, Olivia burst into tears, saying how she wished her late father could witness the love she’s found. Which did draw some sympathy from the audience, with many who can relate to wishing they could share special moments with loved ones who have passed away.

However, others called her emotional display crocodile tears.

Twitter user Jay said: “Some fake tears from Olivia to rebuild her nice girl reputation back up after getting told off.”
