Married at First Sight Australia 2023’s experts have no clue how to deal with Harrison Boon‘s buffoonery and honestly, same.
During the March 12 episode, the secret MAFS superfan made his wildest claim yet – that he had NEVER “manipulated” his TV wife Bronte Schofield, or any other partner, like, ever!
“I just feel like it was a completely baseless accusation. I really reject the notion that I’ve ever manipulated Bronte,” Harrison said.
He added: “That comment, it just really offended me. I’ve actually never heard that before. I really struggled with that because the relationship has been very real for me.”
Countless jaws dropped and eyes rolled at his absolute audacity, but nobody had a better reaction than Alessandra Rampolla‘s stare of blatant shock.
The sexologist hasn’t been buying into Harrison’s BS from day-dot and his latest outlandish claim was no exception.
But while her baffled expression spoke a thousand words, we never got to see her actually call out the groom during this week’s Commitment Ceremony.
Harrison continued to infuriate everybody in the room (and watching on at home) as he continued: “There has been a theme in the experiment where Bronte does get worked up and emotional and she maybe exaggerates.”
John Aiken tried to shine a torch on Harrison’s claims but babes, literally everyone else can tell by this point that nothing will get through that thick skull of his.
“What we’re hearing is that all the relationship problems are Bronte’s. I’ve got a question. What behaviours do you think you do in this relationship that creates problems?” John asked the 32-year-old.

To everybody’s dismay (but nobody’s surprise), the gaslighting gloom shook his head, totally stumped at the question.
“I don’t know,” Harrison finally answered. “I think all my behaviour recently has been trying to pull Bronte into a relationship and seeing what a future would look like for the two of us.”
He went on to confirm that he didn’t believe that he was “contributing to the relationship’s problems” at all.
“If I do contribute to it, please, I’m open to hearing it,” Harrison said. That single sentence could be the wildest thing we’ve heard on this forsaken show so far.
At this point, we’re honestly questioning whether this dude is a mastermind manipulator or just that much of a complete nitwit that he believes this is normal behaviour.
Married at First Sight 2023 fans are divided on the ‘experts’ reactions to Harrison Boon’s gaslighting
Some fans were living for the experts being completely baffled by how Harrison’s warped mind worked.
But others felt they had a duty of care to stop producers from forcing an abusive situation to continue for “entertainment”.
This may be a good time to remind you that the “experts” aren’t allowed to call themselves “psychologists” on MAFS, according to a ruling by the Psychology Council of NSW in August 2017.
