MAFS star Rebecca's cryptic post after Bailey revealed pair have split and hit back at cheating rumours
Married at First Sight couple Rebecca and Bailey have confirmed their split after leaving the show - but it seems they have different stories about why.
Fan favourite MAFS series 10 couple Rebecca and Bailey have confirmed they have broken up.
Viewers were hopeful the pair would work out after they had an almost perfect experience in the experiment and fell in love with each other.
During the reunion episodes, which aired at the end of last week, the couple even spoke of wanting to have a family soon. Rebecca, who is from Liverpool, even said she was closer to moving to Bailey’s hometown of Hove.
But, the reunion was filmed months ago and it seems things have gone very sour between them since them - though why remains unclear.
Bailey posted on his Instagram post with a lengthy post. “ Unfortunately it’s time to share that Bec and I are no longer together… We tried our best to navigate life after the experiment, and although we spent a lot of great time together on the outside, unfortunately the relationship came to an end,” he began.
He went on to say he still has love for his TV wife and he had struggled to watch their relationship as the show aired over the past two months. “I still have a lot of love for Bec and I’m grateful for the amazing relationship we shared. I had fallen for Bec completely and it really was a true love story. I won’t lie, watching us fall in love all over again on screen has been ridiculously hard to go through and it’s something I’m still struggling with now. But I wouldn’t have changed any of it!”
He then went on to address cheating rumours which have been circulating, and denied that he had been unfaithful. “Sadly I also have to address the various different false online allegations constantly being spread about me since the start of MAFS, which have been hard to deal with. I want to make it very clear, I never cheated on Bec at any point,” he said.
He did, however, admit he didn’t handle their split well, but hinted he had been the one to end the romance. “I didn’t handle our break up well and for that I’m truly sorry to Bec, but I was completely loyal the whole way through our relationship.I’m not perfect, I don’t claim to be and I take responsibility for my part in why the relationship didn’t work. Making the decision to end things was heartbreaking and not a decision that I took lightly.”
He ended his statement: “I’m still heartbroken, but I wish Bec all the best and I always will.”
Rebecca simply posted one cryptic sentence on her Instagram page. “To answer all the questions…. Yes, he fumbled,” she said. On her Stories, she added: “Just for clarification, the distance wasn’t the reason we broke up. I’ve seen lots of stories claiming that’s the reason but it’s not.”
Perhaps the pair will reveal more about what happened between them at the upcoming MAFS 2026 reunion.
