MAFS UK's Thomas says he will 'live to regret' his 'vile' remarks about co-stars

MAFS UK's Thomas Hartley says he will 'live to regret' podcast comments as he shares a video update with followers after 'sickening' comments about his co-stars.

The reality TV star has been slammed for his behaviour in recent days after controversial comments made on What’s Happenin’ podcast for which he has since apologised.

Thomas, who was coupled up with Adrian Sanderson on the latest season of Married At First Sight UK appeared on the What’s Happenin’ podcast where he appeared to joke about Jenna’s dad, who died during Covid meaning he couldn’t walk her down the aisle.

Thomas has since apologised but today took to Instagram with a rambling update as he is clearly still struggling with the situation but appears to have taken steps to remedy his wrongs even requesting the removal of the original podcast.

He told followers: "Obviously it's been a few days now and I have had time to reflect and think and wallowing the sort of stuff that's been sent through and everyone's entitled to their opinion I fully accept that you.

"I haven't got a handbook on life, I have made a huge mistake and it's upset a lot of people and those that it's personally upset I've apologise to them directly. "And to those who have been affected by what I said and whatever it is that you are affected by I am sorry that was not my intention.

"It just went too far and it, I'm gonna live with this regret for the rest of my life."

He previously shared how he had been having some “very dark thoughts” after trolls called out his behaviour.

But in a sign that he is moving forward from his comments he told how he will not speak on the matter again.
