Surely its not just me..

1- In the previews prior to the episode being shown, the editing was done to make Andrew look like he was walking out/not tolerating being berated by his screaming 'wife' (Holly). When I actually watched the infamous 'rating other MAFS contestants' scene, I saw it very differently. I saw a narc trying to silence a woman infront of the nation and not let her have the same public platform that he trashed her in. When she started to raise her voice, he took that as an opportunity to play victim, act like he doesn't accept that sort of behaviour. I think majority of Australia isn't fooled by his behaviour on the show judging by the memes, articles, comments on various social media platforms and his sudden disappearance from social media. That's not a coincidence. Dude treated his bride poorly and got away with it while filming happened.

2- she doesn't need to apologise for trying to get her voice heard to someone who shuts her up. She wasn't swearing or threatening him. She was visibly frustrated.

3- he IMPLIED Holly is a narcissist. He did it first to protect himself from being called one (which others and myself believe he probably is). It's a classic narc tactic to turn things around on the victim.

4- Olivia did not need to have an opinion about a situation she doesn't know and voice it repeatedly on national television. No one asked her. I noticed even prior to commitment ceremony, Olivia gave her 2 cents to Holly about Holly's situation and Hollys reply wasn't angry, I found her to respond gracefully to Olivia. It seemed like it was all fine. After Holly's letter, Olivia still had a bee in her bonnet about the same stuff Holly already addressed. Not sure if Olivia needed extra airtime/drama for the Insta followers, but I know she has lost a few fans!

In my opinion; Holly was the bigger person. She showed up and told her side which seemed pretty honest considering what we viewers saw.
