He was Married At First Sight’s mild guy, but ex-groom Matthew Bennett isn’t holding back now he’s no longer part of the reality show.

In a Q&A video shared to his Instagram account on Tuesday, the ex-virgin took a not so subtle dig at his ‘bride’ Lauren Huntriss.

The 30-year-old can be seen sitting at home whilst being interviewed by his new girlfriend Annabelle Jameson.

‘So, seriously Matt…Married At First Sight…what were you thinking? What the hell! Come on!’ Annabelle was heard off-camera.

‘Maybe I was hungry, low blood sugar. Wasn’t thinking clearly. Maybe the aliens told me to do it,’ Matt replied, making reference to Lauren’s on-air claim that he had confessed to her that he had been ‘abducted by aliens’ in his teens.

In another clip, the 30-year-old can be heard saying: ‘I’m communicating in morse code!’ Matt said as he flickered his eyes, clearly referencing his (self-confessed) excessive blinking on the series.    

‘To the aliens?’ Annabelle said before Matthew replied in jest: ‘Yes!’

Last week, Matthew responded to Lauren’s claims that he said he was ‘abducted by aliens’ in his teens. 

‘I used the metaphor that I felt like I was an alien [and that] I couldn’t connect to anyone,’ he explained on the Nova 969 Fitzy and Wippa radio show

‘There was actually a point where I was trusting Lauren and opening up to her and I was telling her about a point in time of my life when I was my most depressed,’ Matthew told the radio hosts.

‘I used the metaphor that I felt like I was an alien,’ he explained. ‘I couldn’t connect to anyone. I felt isolated, alone, like I was from a different species that was how I was I guess, illustrating my depression.’

‘Little did I know that Lauren doesn’t know what a metaphor is.’
