MARRIED At First Sight star Hannah Norburn has lifted the lid on what really happened at the explosive girls’ night, after her huge fall out with the fellow brides.
Hannah and groom Stephen Nolson were late arrivals to the MAFS UK experiment and it wasn’t long before she clashed with the other girls.
Scenes between Hannah and Holly got so heated that MAFS fans took to social media to express their concerns at the time, after health and fitness business owner Hannah was accused of ‘flirting’ with other husbands.
But now the 33-year-old has shared her side of the story, claiming that the reunion saw her being “screamed at for four hours” by her fellow brides.
The brunette beauty told The Sun: “Girls’ night was watered down in the edit.
“It was four hours of absolute hell on earth for me and I was being screamed at by every single girl apart from Emma and Amy.”
Hannah continued: “Every single one of the girls came for me at some point. Lacey was being quite bad and got watered down a little bit.
“It was over and over and I cried and it was horrible.”
Hannah clashed with Polly after she was accused of flirting with Sionainn Carmichael‘s husband Ryan Livesey.
But Holly Ditchfield also argued with Hannah on several occasions, even saying: “Oh, look what the cat has dragged in” at girls’ night as Hannah arrived back on the show.
Hannah continued: “I’m trying to move on, but it is really unfair for these girls to get away with how they’ve treated people.
“I feel like I got bullied by the girls on the show and had a terrible experience because of that, and why should they be given platforms when they behave like that?
“It’s not setting a good example and seeing them have a platform doesn’t feel right after what I went through.”
A Channel 4 spokesperson has said: “The show is a fair and accurate reflection of events during filming.”
MAFS fans were left disgusted after watching Holly and Hannah’s fierce exchange on the show.
Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby.
The pair couldn’t keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam’s Doncaster home.
Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau.
Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December.
Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: “I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out – and excited for everything to come.”
Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019.
Owen recalled: “I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work.
“While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in.
“The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if I signed up?’
“A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.”
Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson.
Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna’s vegan lifestyle, the show’s first same sex pairing are still going strong.
They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod.
Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: “We’re not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship.”
One person on social media wrote at the time: “Holly expects an apology from Hannah??? Is it not supposed to be the other way around.”
A second wrote: “Yes Hannah, you should be proud of yourself for how you held yourself tonight. I would’ve not only been fuming at Holly but the experts too at dismissing the bullying you endured.”
Hannah also accused her ex Stephen of “gaslighting her” while they were on the series together.
After fans watched her and Polly Sellman have a huge bust-up, Hannah revealed why the gang didn’t warm to her, and blamed her husband.
She said the girls “had their backs up from the very beginning,” after Stephen “turned everyone against her” from the start.
Hannah told us: “He gaslit me, he sabotaged me and he went into the group and turned everyone against me.”
The fitness fanatic previously said that Stephen made some serious allegations about her to the rest of the cast.
She said during a recent Instagram Live: “I then found out he went to the boys and said ‘you need to be very careful of Hannah, she’s dangerous, she’s here to play a game and she’ll f*** everybody over’.
“The boys didn’t know me so they’re going to believe the one person who knows me, I understand that.
“The boys then took that and said ‘we need to go and warn the girls’. So the entire cast were like ‘OK, we need to reject her’.”
At the girls’ night Hannah hit out at the group for failing to support her throughout the process.
She said: “You’re all in a Whatsapp group, you’ve all had the support from each other and I haven’t.”
But then Holly delivered a blow by saying, “you’ve got zero girl code, youve got no respect for women. You’d rather get your pie filled than be friends with them.”
