In last night’s premiere episode of season ten of MAFS, we were blessed with “the biggest scandal ever”, which saw bride Bronte find out that her groom Harrison had been considering impregnating a young, blonde girl just days before entering the experiment.
A guest named Jessica attended Bronte and Harrison’s wedding who conveniently knew a girl that Harrison had been dating prior to the show, and told the bride about it.
When Bronte confronted Harrison, he told her that he “had a crush” on the girl “for a long time”, and only got his chance with her just before filming began. It was later revealed that the girl in question is 20. Harrison is 32, which brings up some burning questions, but that’s a topic for another day. Harrison also told Bronte that he said to his IRL girlfriend: “Imagine if I got you pregnant before I went on MAFS. What a scandal”.
During the episode, it was revealed that the woman was young and blonde, and it’s since been discovered that she was on the latest season of The Bachelors. Unfortunately, it’s not Jess Navin, but instead, a random contestant called Abby Miller who was booted near the beginning of the season, as per Daily Mail Australia.

However, a source told the publication that the relationship between Harrison and Maddy wasn’t as serious as it was made out on the episode.
‘The whole thing was blown out of proportion,” an insider told the publication.
“Jess wanted her five minutes of fame and exaggerated the nature of Harrison’s relationship with Abby just to get time in front of the camera.
“Harrison and Abby knew each other for no more than a month and a half.”
The source added that while Harrison and Abby went on a few dates there was “nothing serious” about their relationship and said the groom “‘certainly didn’t promise to wait for her”.
