“I had a holiday fling”: MAFS’ Lauren Dunn sets the record straight about “secret Bali boyfriend”

"It's almost being used against me"

Rumours are rife about Lauren Dunn having a “secret Bali boyfriend” while married to Jonathan McCullough on Married At First Sight.

Lauren previously admitted to being in Bali right before filming kicked off, and it’s been reported that she met someone who she fell in “love” with.

“She’d apparently told friends this guy in Bali was “perfect” for her, but she was still curious to see what type of man the experts would choose for her,” a source told New Idea.

“Because Lauren had made it onto the show, she felt she may as well make a go of things with whoever she was matched with.'”

The magazine said that Lauren would admit to Jonathan that she was in love with someone else.

“In the beginning, Jono thought he could win Lauren over. But it seems like he had no chance if she was already hung up on somebody on the outside.”

What did Lauren say about the rumours?

Lauren has slammed the rumours, saying that they’re absolutely not true.

“You’ve got to give it to some of these publications, they are very good with their creative writing. It’s just a bit ridiculous. I didn’t have a Bali boyfriend,” she told Daily Mail Australia.

However, she did admit to having a romance in Bali.

“I told Jono at the very beginning of the experiment. We were talking about our past hookups and who we’d been with. I mentioned I had a holiday fling before the show. 

“I feel like me being honest about that has come back to blow up in my face later down the line. It’s almost being used against me.”
