MAFS bride Amy Kenyon has responded in an emotional statement after her homestays week with groom Luke.
The stunning bride wasn’t seeing eye to eye with Luke after several comments made during the episode.
Amy was initially grossed out by Luke letting her dog lick him, and she also accused him of ‘lying’ after seeing a photo on his fridge.
Luke had cut the photo to remove a girl from it, but lied to Amy about the gender of the person he’d got rid of.
Then, things went from bad to worse as Luke told Amy she looked ‘bloated’ in a throwback photo of her, and then pointed out mould on the ceiling of her mum’s house.
On social media, while many viewers understood the concerns Amy raised about her relationship with Luke, some others questioned why Amy was getting “so annoyed.”
Viewers hit out at Amy over her disagreements with Luke on the show, as one wrote: “Why is Amy picking on everything Luke does?”
A second said: “Amy has had the ick since the wedding day and is now picking on Luke because she’s mentally checked out.”
But Amy has now taken to social media to share her thoughts on the episode, while admitting it was a difficult watch.
Opening up, the blonde beauty penned: ““From bad, to worse…
“Tonight’s episode will be a difficult one to watch for me. I’m not proud of my behavior or of the person I was pushed to become, I might be over reacting writing this but I look back at this person and remember how I lost me.
“Emotions ran extremely high during home stays, with a lot of tension building up at that point due to things going on behind the scenes, which unfortunately cannot be disclosed out of respect.
“When I visited my home, my mum was really down and didn’t want to be part of the filming. This was when she unintentionally hinted at some tough news regarding my brother, which made an already challenging time even harder.
“Please be kind when watching, to both myself, Luke, and my amazing friends. Remember that what you see is only a few clips from many hours of filming.
“It’s hard to see things being portrayed this way, but at the end of the day, this is the reality of TV, and it’s what I signed up for. I know I’m not demanding, boring, or any of the other things I’ve been called recently by a select few.
Here's who you can expect in the Mafs 2024 cast:
“I am a strong woman that knows her worth and doesn’t take s***, I’m also not an actor and never aspire to be.
“The people who know me know the real me, and that’s all that matters
“I hope you enjoy tonight’s episode and watching the rest of mine and Luke’s journey together, we just might surprise you.
“Love, kindness, and positivity to you all and to the judgmental trolls that don’t know me, f*** you.”
As Amy brought Luke to her mum’s home and introduced Luke to her dog, he made himself at home, got down on the floor and let the dog lick his face and mouth.
Amy couldn’t believe what she was witnessing and viewers felt much the same as they flooded social media with their comments.
One person wrote: “Luke, I like you, but that dog behaviour is disgusting.”
A second added: “If someone was licking my dog like that I would be seriously concerned.”
A third said: “Does Luke fancy Amy’s dog or what? This licking is terrible.”
A fourth person echoed: “Luke stop licking that dog ASAP.”
Someone else said: “Luke I didn’t have a bad word to say about you until you let the dog lick you like that.”
Amy complained to the camera about the noises Luke was making as the dog licked him, as Luke let it happen again while laying in bed with Amy in the morning.
As the homestays continued the two also meet up with Amy’s pals.
Amy’s friend asks Luke: “Adult entertainment.. is that what you see yourself doing, even now when you’ve got a wife?”
Speaking to camera, Luke says: “This is definitely an attempt to assassinate my character.”
Awkwardly during the dinner, he adds: “Well.. as of now, I’m a single man,” and puts his ring on the table.
Amy fumes: “You lied. You’re a liar.”
Luke then says to camera: “Maybe it’s not meant to be.”
