Married At First Sight fans were left reeling after last night’s typically-explosive commitment ceremony, where Olivia Frazer casually admitted she doesn’t “have empathy”.
But no one was more dumbfounded than MAFS alum and former teacher Michael Brunelli, who blasted the aspiring teacher for her remarks.
“Me, a former teacher, trying to figure out how someone who doesn’t have the emotional intelligence to feel empathy wants to become a teacher,” Michael wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of himself looking perplexed.
Season six groom and former teacher Michael Brunelli isn’t happy with Olivia’s lack of empathy.
(Image: Instagram)The season six groom’s comments came after Olivia was reprimanded by expert Alessandra Rampolla for circulating her arch nemesis Domenica Calarco’s nude OnlyFans photo to the group.
“This situation was created by the decision for whatever reason that you had to grab your phone and show other people,” Alessandra told Olivia, who is currently studying to become a high school English teacher.
Olivia attempted to downplay her actions which have caused the biggest drama of the season, responding, “It just wasn’t a big deal.”

But a stone-faced Olivia bluntly responded: “As far as empathy… I just don’t have it.”
Michael’s choice words for the 28-year-old are in stark contrast to comments former MAFS star Bryce Ruthven made about Olivia last week.
Bryce, who rose to infamy on the 2021 season, defended Olivia and argued that drama-hungry producers were the catalyst for the entire OnlyFans scandal.
While watching last week’s dinner party at home, Bryce took to Instagram to say: “I seem to recall going to a particular dinner party where I had everyone attacking myself over a forced producer act that led to some of the worst acting seen on TV.
“According to expert John [Aiken].. acceptable behaviour in 2021. Not acceptable in 2022. Go figure?! All tonight’s show is missing is Dion’s edited voiceover again.”
Bryce’s claims came after the explosive episode aired, which saw Olivia telling Tamara: “When someone smashes a wine glass in your face, you Google them,” referencing the glass-smashing incident at the couples’ retreat.
