Married At First Sight Australia star Ollie Skelton has revealed why he believes he got less air-time on the show compared to his season 10 co-stars.

Ollie made it all the way to his final vows ceremony on this year’s instalment of the hit reality series, alongside his 'wife' Tahnee Cook.

While the duo successfully developed a romantic relationship during their time on the show and have remained a couple since filming ceased, some fans noted Ollie and Tahnee didn’t seem to feature on MAFS as often as their fellow brides and grooms.

Now attempting to address the reasoning behind this, Ollie has taken to social media to give fans his insight on why.

Sharing some footage from a MAFS dinner party on TikTok, Ollie implied he’d had a few too many drinks during filming.

"A lot of people say, 'Hey, Tahnee and Ollie, you weren’t in the show'," he began. "We actually were. I just didn’t get any screen time because I was drunk the whole time.

"Look at it here. Adam [Seed] and Harrison [Boon] talking shit, I’m blind. Can barely get a sentence out. Help me."

Tahnee was quick to respond to her partner’s honest admission about their time on the reality show.

"Too real," she wrote in the comment section, alongside a laughing emoji.

Tahnee has also previously addressed her and Ollie’s limited screen time throughout the season, insisting she wasn’t fazed by not featuring in the show as much as her co-stars.

"Ollie and I got zero airtime, but we are happy," she told The Daily Telegraph Australia. "People still get to see our personalities and who we are."

Since filming on Married At First Sight season 10 concluded, Ollie and Tahnee have remained a couple and are now living together in Sydney.
