Ryan confronts Clint over secret texts to Jacqui

During a media interview on Thursday, Ryan Donnelly interrupted Clint Rice to accuse him of secretly texting Jacqui Burfoot while she was still married to Ryan on the show "Married At First Sight." Ryan made the claims while Clint was speaking with Abbie Chatfield on her podcast. Ryan's surprise video message posed a direct question to Clint about his alleged texting and called him out for trying to form a relationship with Jacqui before their respective relationships ended. Clint, who had been paired with Lauren Hall on the show, admitted to sending messages to Jacqui but claimed they were not inappropriate. He stated that he was texting other cast members as well, including Ryan, and emphasized that nothing happened until after the show concluded. Despite Clint's attempts to steer the conversation away from the accusations, the topic remained a focus. He expressed attraction to Jacqui from the beginning, but maintained that their connection developed only after he left the experiment. Clint recently shared a video showcasing his wealth on social media, which Ryan criticized after a heated argument between him and Jacqui aired on the show. Jacqui has since confirmed her new relationship with Clint, praising his character and contrasting him with Ryan's past criticisms. She had previously criticized Ryan's lifestyle and living conditions, which she said were less appealing than living with Clint.
