Michael Goonan has spoken out ahead of the finale of Married at First Sight and compared it to the deadly coronavirus.
WATCH: MAFS’ Michael compares marriage to the coronavirus after revealing how he REALLY ended things with Stacey
Chatting to Nova 100’s Chrissie, Sam and Browny earlier this week, the 28-year-old made the unusual link between the controversial marriage experiment and coronavirus social distancing measures.
According to Michael, so many of this season’s biggest scandals took place behind the scenes, and were then played out through intense arguments at dinner parties, something he likened to those who ignore social distancing rules.
“Picture coronavirus, you’ve got Scott Morrison telling you to stay at home and you’ve got everyone running around,” he began.
“People don’t like to do what they’re told sometimes, sometimes you sneak out, you know what I mean?,” he said.
“You picked 20 of the most damaged people in society and threw them into the experiment and (said) ‘there’s the rule books guys, you failed at Tinder but succeed at this,’ come on!”
On Sunday, viewers are set to see a final showdown between the couples as further cheating allegations come to light.
This time, Michael’s ‘wife’ Stacey Hampton is accused of sleeping with Mikey. And the evidence is compelling…
The details come after the final episode of the current season was pushed back to Sunday.
It was due to air on Wednesday, however Channel Nine aired documentary series Paramedics and a Nine News special on the COVID-19 pandemic instead.
“All 12 couples face the experts for a final time to look back at their time in the experiment, with some explosive revelations,” the episode description reads.
The schedule change came after the news that a number of Married At First Sight‘s most controversial contestants of 2020 have been ‘unfollowed’ by the show’s official Instagram account after they broke contracts and bad-mouthed the program that made them famous.
David Cannon – the guy that cleaned his wife’s soiled toilet bowl with her own toothbrush – says producers retaliated after they went rogue and changed their passwords.
David explained that they had access to the star’s own Instagram accounts and controlled what was posted.
‘A few of us have gone rogue and kicked them off our [Instagram] accounts,’ he explained to Daily Mail.
“We were sick of the producers being controlling pieces of s**t that warp reality and the truth to suit their own storyline,” he added, after deleted every trace of MAFS’ handywork from his account.
David joins Natasha Spencer, Josh Pihlak, Mishel Meshes, Poppy Jennings and Stacey Hampton as the chosen few who were wiped.
Natasha told the website, “They were controlling my content, and the application they use to upload photos failed three times and I was sick of not having my posts go up on time.”
