Married At First Sight Australia accidentally created a new star after fans went nuts over bride Jessika Power’s very hot brother Rhyce Power.
But now the tatted-up hottie is responding to some very serious allegations made about his past.
In the hours following his appearance on MAFS, the former stripper got inundated with tweets, comments on follows across all social media.
But in a video, posted to his Instagram, he penned, “‘To all the FAKE allegations circulating about me, here’s what I think.'”
Rhyce, 27, was referring to claims on the gossip website The Dirty dating back to 2014, which were made by an anonymous source.
“Haha that’s me n I find it quite funny my [censored] has sent this in about me n trying to hurt my reputation,” he wrote.
On Thursday morning, he told The Kyle and Jackie O Show: “Someone’s got a photo saying I’ve got VROs [Violence Restraining Order] against me and [that I’m violent] against women. Someone took a photo off Google [of a heavily bruised woman] and posted that I’ve done it.”
“It’s pretty sad because the girl it actually happened to in 2015 messaged me crying her eyes out because she just got over it. Now this photo’s gone viral about her.”
Kyle Sandilands asked: “That totally not true, is that what you’re saying? It’s just a fabrication?”
Rhyce replied, “It’s not true at all. Listen I’ve never been in a fight.”
