Speaking to 9Entertainment: "My biggest regret on the show was the last commitment ceremony when I actually wrote 'stay' when I should have written 'leave', because I wanted to get back at him," she said.  

"Even saying that now doesn't sit well with me. It's mean, it's nasty. I should have walked away."

Despite their fallout - one of the biggest in the show's history - she understands why they were matched by the relationship experts.

"We're both fighters, both determined, both strong-willed. We've both overcome massive adversities in our lives," she said. 

“Well you know what, I can dance the good dance and be as immature as everyone else on this planet and I said I’m going to stay because I’m enjoying this too much babe,” said Hayley.

Hayley claimed she chose to "stay" on the show as "revenge" for David's toothbrush attack, but Michael's wife Stacey thinks she has other motives.

Even relationship expert John called their marriage "toxic".

"This is a sick joke," Stacey roared from the couch.

"Your husband can’t stand you, you’re keeping him here in handcuffs. She’s being SPITEFUL!"

Hayley told Stacey to, "Calm down, blondie."

David said: "I don’t want to be here anymore, I don’t want to have to sit next to Hayley anymore, I don’t want to be in this toxic environment anymore.”

But Hayley had other ideas: “The reason that I have wrote stay right, is that if he wants to do something like that to me, he can sit there for another week now and think about his actions before he goes back to his loved ones. Because I sat there thinking ‘what the hell have I done as a woman to get this level of utter disregard shoved in my face?”

“I don’t want to be here anymore, I don’t want to have to sit next to Hayley anymore, I don’t want to be in this toxic environment anymore,” said an uncharacteristically eloquentDavid.

Hayley added 'I’m enjoying this too much' next to her 'Stay', for maximum impact.

But John said: “It is very, very unhealthy what you’ve got between each other. It is toxic. There are certain standards that we’ve got to adhere to. I think also, it’s not in the spirit of the experiment for you to be staying to get back at your partner.

“With that being said, we will send you back to the group and both of you now will leave the experiment regardless of the decision you’ve written on the pads.  This relationship is clearly beyond repair.”

And with that, this year’s most dramatic couple exited the show.  

It is very, very unhealthy what you’ve got between each other. It is toxic," said John, stating the obvious.
