Summary of what happened Sit with us
Dom and Ella were slammed by fans after their podcast interview with MAFS’ Jack Dunkley and Tori Adams, who slammed the presenters and their defence of Jack’s controversial “muzzle a woman” comment.
Abbie Chatfield also took to Instagram to slam the hosts, saying she was concerned that victim blaming continued as the conversation unfolded about Lauren Dunn provoking Jack, rather than Jack being held accountable.
“It’s so sad to see victim blaming and men getting away with making statements that dehumanize women because they talked too much,” Abbie Chatfield commented. “I can’t believe you’re all ignoring what he said because he was ‘pushed’. That’s an excuse for all abusive men. And what he did was verbally abusive.”

“Over the past month I have been struggling with some serious issues that have left me emotionally, physically and mentally exhausted,” Dom said. “Every day I strive to be the strong, independent and cheerful person that you all know I am, but the reality is that I am not and recent social media comments have forced me to realise I have reached my breaking point.”
